Episode 12 is live now… already had some nice feedback which is very cool. Theresa brings a nice change of pace to the shows, as has been pointed out…

I was kind of bummed looking at how few pinball machines there are in the Buffalo area. I am already planning shows based around some cool machines this week. If I can’t go play, I will just run my mouth!

I know there is a little shop in Rochester, NY that I have been to, I believe based around RC cars…??? They had a Twilight Zone, Scared Stiff, and a few other games if I remember correctly. Fun little place, that I will look up and try to find this trip. The back half of my trip is in and around the NYC area, so there will be lots of places and games to visits and play. Looking forward to the road!

Another nice podcast. OK, I'm only 14 minutes in and maybe the rest is static.

I wanted to point out that the Clint Eastwood callouts in DH are custom speech and done by Clint. He definitely sounds like he was on downers or something when they recorded it, but there ya go.

If you had fun playing the game, that must mean the flippers were strong. Spongy flippers on that one mean not being able to make either ramp, because they're both so steep. Fun game. I had one for around a year.

Just finished episode 11. I know, I'm behind. Anyway, to pinball tech heads, Clay Harrell is a GOD! Some think he's a bit of a prima donna but Clay is one of the original pin repair web guys. He currently runs a webzine called pinballninja.com where you donate at least twenty bucks and then you have access to over 700 game specific repairs with the last two hundred or so having videos. More importantly, Clay ran Topcast which are the definitive podcast interviews of the industry greats like Steve Ritchie, Pat Lawlor, Lyman Sheats and tons more. These are required listening for those interested in the historical aspects of the industry.

I put that all together shortly after mispronouncing his name and not realizing which CLAY I was talking about... Donated to his Kickstarter as a token of good will and a quiet apology for not putting pieces together quicker.... C'mon Don, keep up! ;)
