## Analysis

Poor Man's Pinball Podcast episode 102 is an unstructured, casual discussion featuring hosts Drew and Scott Ian (referred to as "Scott Ian" in the episode). The main content includes discussion of a rumor about Steve Ritchie potentially leaving Stern Pinball for Jersey Jack Pinball, dad jokes, and personal pinball machine modification projects, particularly work on Creature and Ghostbusters machines. The episode lacks formal structure and focuses on community speculation and collector experiences.

### Key Claims

- [LOW] Steve Ritchie is rumored to be leaving Stern Pinball for Jersey Jack Pinball — _Host explicitly states 'I still don't believe it, baby' and calls it 'probably bullshit.' The rumor originated on Facebook/Pinside and lacks verification._
- [MEDIUM] Jersey Jack Pinball machines have approximately twice the bill of materials (BOM) budget compared to Stern machines — _Drew states 'His B-O-M would be twice as much as Stern' when discussing hypothetical Steve Ritchie move to JJP._
- [MEDIUM] Jersey Jack Pinball's development cycle is approximately two years — _During rumor discussion, hosts state 'What's the development cycle at Jersey Jack Pinball? Oh, two years. Yeah. That's what they said.'_
- [HIGH] Metallica and Ghostbusters are the two most heavily modded Stern games in pinball history — _Drew cites Measel Mods catalog data: 'Metallica, 52 [mods]. Ghostbusters, 38 [mods].' Most other games have 10-12 mods available._
- [MEDIUM] An interactive LCD screen mod for Creature costs approximately $900-$950 USD — _Drew references 'Pinball South Park' mod from Spain: 'I think the guy's from Spain, and you're thinking about U.S. dollars. It's probably around $900, $950.'_
- [HIGH] A non-interactive LCD screen mod for Creature by Juzpinball costs slightly over $300 including shipping — _Drew states personal purchase: 'The one I have, he's actually from Australia. It's Juzpinball... I think I paid a little over $300. Oh, that's awesome. You know? So for the effects. That was with shipping? Yeah.'_
- [MEDIUM] Steve Ritchie's recent designs have been described as 'lackluster' and 'cookie cutter' by some community members due to budget constraints — _Hosts paraphrase Pinside discussion: 'His designs have been cookie cutter for years' with speculation this is due to Stern budget limitations._
- [MEDIUM] Black Knight III underperformed commercially relative to Stern's sales expectations — _Hosts discuss: 'Black Knight III didn't get the accolades it should have or they wanted... They wanted more sales. They thought they were going to get more out of it.'_

## Transcript

 When my roommate comes into the room looking for his car keys, I don't say it yet. And when he gets me off the couch to check underneath the couch, Christians, I don't say it yet. No. And then when he says out loud, I wonder where my car keys are, I still don't say it. I still don't say it. But then he asked me, do you know where my car keys are? I look at him, it is right there. And I say, have you checked your bridal? I have not seen your keys, but since your alchemy. I don't think he's ever had your big, long, big, long. But the funniest thing to say to someone who brought the shit and is stressed out. I'm going to be the best man. Start to sweat. They got to think we're fucking. I don't say it. Crazy. When I see that little room getting yelled at by a smile. Oh, I still don't say it. When I see the groom asking the vicar to take it away just another 15 minutes. I do not say it. And when the father of the bride starts organizing an adequate in-you-bob of the courtyard area, I want to, but I do not say it. It's the 11th hour. 300 condoms gets under the roof. The picker approaches the mic. Suddenly, all of the chatter goes mute. He says that they've misplaced the rings. Could anyone possibly know where they are? I've got my five and all hands turned. And I can't say, picker. The Poor Man's Pinball Podcast is sponsored by Flip N Out Pinball.

A couple of rumors, because, you know, all the rumors that we spread here on Poor Man's are always true. Thank you, Kaz, for the bits. You were saying? No, I was just thinking Kaz. Okay. Yeah, so there's a couple of rumors I want to kind of go through and talk about a little bit. Rumor mill. There's a couple of new mods I want to talk about. Mod mill. That's not a thing. Do-do-do-do. Mod mill. Alright, what else? What else? And then I got some cool personal news, some stuff I've been working on. So that's neat. Ian can talk a little bit about Creature because that thing is, man, that thing is looking sharp. Some people say Creature's not that deep, whatever, whatever. Come over, look at Ian's game. This game is sharp. And what? Every time I see this game, I want a showpiece like this in my game room. Not Creature, but I want my game, whatever it may be. No, no, thanks for the subscription. Modded up to no end. I mean, Ian spent more on mods for this game than we spent on Laser War. I wouldn't say mods in general. I would say more like just new everything, plastics, ramps, which I would have spent on Laser War if that was available. Yeah, you can't find that shit. No. Nobody wants that shit. No. We're the one person asking for it. Hey, do you have this new ramp? Hey, you got plastics for Laser War? They're like, what? No. No, that game's been defunct for 100 years. I'll have to replace the dinosaur ones that somebody else put in there. Yeah, the Jurassic Park classics on Laser War. Yeah, it works. You're fighting lasers. You're fighting dinosaurs. We can talk creatures some more. Sure. So, yeah, we got that. We're going to do some dad jokes today. Dad jokes! Just to kind of get back in the groove. I got, every time I see these dad jokes, I start snapping pictures of them online. Oz always sends us stuff. Mike Williams the other day, out of the blue, started sending us just some goofy ones. I'll read a few of those. Mike Williams, unfortunately for him, is running a tournament tonight. So he's right here. He's at the IO Bar in Madison. So you can hang up with us now and go there and play some pinball. Go to Madison. So, yeah, that's what we're doing. Oh, and Chris Chandler sends us a lot of dead jokes. I played in a little match play tournament last week, so I'll talk about that. So we got all kinds of good stuff. So let's go get a tissue. Let's kick this shit off. I'm going to figure out how to open the bar here. Uh-oh, what did I do? Damn it, Drew, you had one job. Yeah, well, I figured it out. Come in, grab a seat. The bar is open. Come in, the bar. So, we are open. So, yeah. I already told you guys what's on tap today, so let's just get right into it. And we are open. Okay. Drew, let's get into what we're drinking. What you drinking, bud? I'm digging this Fireball and Coke thing that Tim's turned me on to. Yeah. I fucking hate Tim. I give him the cake. I fucking hate Tim. In two weeks, I'll hate it, but for right now, it's great. Oh, you know what else we forgot to talk about? What else we got on our show? We have a new tribe member. Or members. On tap today, we have two, two, count them, two. I'm holding up two fingers. Tribe members. And I am drinking, I'm still drinking. Oh, the Smoke Wagon. You got to say it like smoke. The Smoke Wagon. It's got an H in it, smoke. Smoke Wagon. Texas. No, straight bourbon whiskey from Las Vegas, which I don't know if they have an accent because they're all kind of transplants. Go with the Smoke Wagon. Smoke Wagon from Texas. Yee-haw. Mr. Sand, hey, welcome Mr. Sand good drink, try it frozen I need to slushy I need to slushy up my fireball and coke we need a fireball slushy Tony Scoots, I'm actually drinking coffee can't keep the eyes open anymore past 9 that's because you're old Tony love you Tony, don't worry man I'll tuck you in with my soothing voice and two new members two new tribe members they're coming your way guys I almost forgot But we have a new song. Should I be writing all this down? This you should probably write down. We have a new song from Glenn and Dave Jeff Brenner. Dave Jeff Brenner on drums. I did not do that. That's okay. We'll get to it. We'll have a little cocktail break. Shit. Glenn, we didn't forget about you, buddy. I did. I'm sorry. I love you. I didn't forget about you. This guy sucks. I remembered it at the end of last show. Yeah, well, sometimes it happens. Have you checked this? Have we checked this in a while? Oh, that's all it's there. You're good. So, yeah, there you go. Okay, anyway, keep going. Yep, okay. So I want to talk about this rumor that came up on Pinside. It's probably bullshit, but it's fun to talk about. So apparently there was someone on Facebook, because, you know, Facebook is the ultimate truth website, right? Everything on Facebook is 100% true all the time. So apparently somebody said that Steve Ritchie is leaving Stern and going to JJP. What do we think about that? That's the rumor? That is the rumor. Jesus. And it actually, I'm trying to find the forum post now because it had some legs. I mean, you know, like I said, I'm calling it bullshit for a couple of reasons because, you know, Steve Ritchie is, I'm not going to make any old jokes. He's been in the business a long time, right? Yes. And, you know, he's got to be eyeing retirement at some point, you know, whether it's two years from now, five years from now. But it just, you know, based on that alone, it doesn't make sense. but the reason that some people are kind of saying it has some legs is because i mean he has been he's left a lot of companies to go to a lot of other companies it's true this isn't like you know it's not like he's been at stern for a hundred years i mean he's been there a while now but i what i learned today and reading through this is when he first came to stern he he wasn't like a full-time employee he was like a contract guy because a lot of these guys are so um you know it's it's not like He's married to one company. I found it, finally. So if you go to Pinside Forum, Steve Ritchie leaving Stern for JJP. I'm not going to obviously read through all of it, but it was just really interesting to me that it could happen. What are the pros? What are the cons? Well, the pros are he would get a much bigger bill of material. Like the bomb. B-O-M, baby. His B-O-M would be twice as much as Stern. Hit that bomb button. so that's dead pool that's fair we're back it's also the boom button but i'm talking bomb button that's what happens when you go to jjp they got the bomb button they they have uh ken cromwell on the social media page hitting the bomb button bomb button more bomb please so so a lot of people a lot of people argued that steve ritchie designs have been lackluster in recent years because he's been hamstrung by the bomb. So they're saying Steve Ritchie wants to go out with a bang. He's going to design some super pin at JJP with an unlimited budget and go nuts. Right? I still got it. I still got it. Exactly. Still got it. But, you know, does that seem plausible? Yeah. Okay, that's a pro. Yep. Is there any more pros? the bomb button boom well they're talking about themes you know because that'd be probably a negative wouldn't you it would it'd be a con yes yes no good point because he got a few themes he really wanted recently you know Led Zeppelin was something he really wanted right you know I don't know how he feels about like Game of Thrones and Star Wars per se he really dug Star Trek yeah that game that game turned out amazing that shows So I don't know. What kind of theme is he going to get at Jersey Jack? Right. He's not going to do Toy Story. No. No, he's not doing Toy Story. That's right. Everyone knows what that means. That's what he designed. So you've got a pro, you've got a con. I'd say the other con being, what's the development cycle at Jersey Jack? Oh, two years. Yeah. That's what they said. Is he going to want to wait around two years to see his game being made? Well, here's what they said. His last game was Led Zeppelin, right? So that thing, he's been done designing that for what? A year, more than a year? Sure. So it's very possible, depending on his contract with Stern, he could already be designing something at JJP in theory. Tim Lee, he wants an awesome retirement game. Well, that was the biggest pro. Cavalier. Jeremy, see if he's washed up. Oh, heartache, heartache. God damn, Jeremy. Why don't you just tell us how you feel, brother? Why don't these guys want to come on our show? Who? Steve Ritchie? Wash up. Can't hear. We don't. For the record, I think we've all decided, well, although we haven't talked about it, is interviews and us drinking just don't go well together. No, it's terrible. We shouldn't do interviews. Like, unless it's somebody that gets it and is part of that whole thing and they get the humor in it where they can partake as well. For you guys who don't know what we're talking about, go listen to our Dan Lucen episode from about 100 years ago. Macho wants something, baby. What does he want? Whoa. Macho. Oh, he wants a dad joke. Why don't you go start us off, buddy? All right. Macho, you got a dad joke? Macho's got it. I asked my wife to pick six stems of asparagus from the garden. She came back with seven. The last one is just a spare, I guess. God damn it. You son of a gun. I'm going to go, too. We should do double this up. Yeah. I love it. Oh, man. What do houses wear? A dress. Oh, my God. They don't get better from here, folks. You're expecting more. Macho Pinball says boo. That's the wrong part. Boo, Macho, boo. Brother. Boo. Oh, my God. What are we even doing? Why are we still doing this shit? Who knows? Who knows? Oh, wait. Gasahawks got one. Sorry. How do you spot a blind man on a nude beach? It's not hard. I like a gasaholic I like it that's good and and Tim Lee says end the show and my response my response is nope never just not happening yet we need to have at least 100 tribe members for you to continue your show I will tell you this Tim Lee as long as there's at least one idiot out there listening to us I will be here sitting in this chair drinking and doing the same thing. Yeah, that's the thing, guys. I'm sorry. Yeah. We're just going to keep going. If we get to zero, then I'll quit. It's like the countdown. Yes. Hey, hey, don't give them anything to work towards. Yeah, we have 1,500 viewers. We have six viewers. We have three viewers. We have one. 1,499. 1,498. Shit. All right, anyway. Yeah, if we get down to absolutely nobody watching us, nobody listening, then I'll hang it up. But you know what? Our numbers keep getting better. How does that work? I don't know. The less we try, the better it gets. Isn't that amazing? Yep. All right. So, you know, like I said, I don't want to spend too much time on this, but it was just really interesting to me. And like I said, I don't think it's going to happen. Yeah, the cons outweigh the pros, in my opinion. What are the chances that this is the true? I mean, I could see it. The only thing I could see is, yeah, he wants to go out with one big game, And if Stern doesn't want to do that for him, well, then, yes, he should be able to look elsewhere. But if he is looking for one big game, wouldn't you think Stern? No, they wouldn't. No, they wouldn't. They absolutely wouldn't. I'm going to ask a controversial question, though. What kind of underwear does Steve Ritchie wear? Does he wear socks? That's not controversial. He wears socks on his cock. I know that. Wow, hard C there, Drew. Literally. But I'm pumped. It's dad joke day. Dad jokes. You know, the jokes about him being washed up. And there were a lot of people in this thread. You know, it's pin side, so take it with a grain of salt. Oh, you know. They're the nicest people in the world. His, you know, his designs have been cookie cutter for years and blah, blah, blah. And they pointed different things. And, you know, I will note that I have two Steve Ritchie games in my collection at the moment. So, you know, I have nothing but love for Steve Ritchie. But is he at a point now, and I'm not even talking about because of age or whatever. I mean, he has a long storied career, and he's the king, and a lot of people love his designs. Is one game at the end of his career going to make him or break him either way? No. So you think maybe it's just a personal, it could be a personal thing for him? Well, it could be a fuck you just turned to. Okay. Okay. It's possible. I still got it, baby. Bad joke. Here we go. What does one boob say to the other boob? Ooh, I want to know this. If we don't get support, people will think we're nuts. And then Glenno. Thank you, sir. Glenno follows it up. What kind of underwear does C. Richie wear? Depends. Kenleige. Kenleige? What time is it when you go to the dentist? 2.30 2.30 2.30 2.30 Oh my god I'll do that idiot I'm not alone pinball profile Okay Thanks buddy I appreciate you man What did he say? He's not going to be that idiot He's not going to leave us You won't leave us Jeff Thanks Yeah Yeah you won't leave us Thank you Love you All we need is one idiot One for the morning I'm in Alright Fuck you guys You're being way too nice to us today Alright We're doing this forever all right so that was an interesting rumor but it is it is um what kind of theme would you like to see him do oh it had to be a rock and roll kind of yeah it had to be hardcore Steve Ritchie has that he's a bmx guy at heart yeah another bmx thing could it be but what would you do like an x games or a yeah maybe it's not theme related at all it's just something that he wants to do with a lot of fucking shit in it. Because he's into the adrenaline rush. He's into the heavy music. I'm just trying to think what would be... I mean, like, so I suppose for him, everyone's been asking, like, a Motley Crue pin or... Yeah, it's like, well, that's kind of like, you know, is that your favorite music? Oh, okay, then... Yeah. No, I know. I don't know. It's hard to say. Yeah, what would be a good thing for Steve Ritchie? All right, here's one. He's also done one. Here's one. Go ahead. Super exciting. Everyone's going to love it. You could do, I mean, it's a blank canvas, heart-pounding, literally. And I'm not saying that Steve Ritchie does drugs, but how about a game about cocaine? Just call it cocaine? Cocaine. Call it white powder. You know, for the kids. Have a guy in the slopes. Woo! Sorry. Sorry. I heard the cracking. You broke the mic. Yeah, you just had a picture of Ric Flair on the back last. Ah, that's wrong. Cocaine. Electronic said it. I believe that was police force that had cocaine already. Cocaine. High Speed 3, I could see that. I'm sure he wants to do that. Oh, there you go. Yeah, because... There you go. Cause. Bringing it. Yeah, because he... You know, High Speed and Getaway were both, you know, iconic games. But I will point to the fact that... Something near and dear to his heart. Black Knight III didn't get the accolades it should have or they wanted. Well, not that what Stern wanted. Yeah. They wanted more sales. They thought they were going to get more out of it. Yeah, for sure. I get it. I played Black Knight again over at the Garcade. I like the Pro. I do. I wouldn't buy it. That's just me. It's not a buy for me. All right, man. What other rumors we got? Is that the big one? That's the big one. Okay. Do you want to go over personal news, man? Yeah, let's do it. and around. Yep, what do you got with the creature there? Pinball, pinball, pinball. Let's talk pinball. Pinball news. Poor man's pinball personal news. Well, why don't you go? Because I don't know what I want to talk. Oh, you know what? The one thing I got, and it was like the final touch was, so a lot of creatures out there have the hologram that fades pretty badly, right? Mm-hmm. So, there's mods to replace that. There's a laser cut plexiglass LED thing where you can put that on there. Does it look great? It doesn't look the best, but it works, right? It absolutely works. You know, if you were lucky enough to get in early, you can get the Mike D mod, which was a LCD screen that I believe was interactive with the game. Arguably one of the best mods in pinball. Yeah, very cool. Now they go for stupid money, but at the time that was pretty revolutionary. Then right now I think there's, we talked about it last week, There's a few people going back and forth, buying certain mods or whatever, or starting to develop their own LCD screens for Creature. Pinball SP, I believe, was one. And that's out now. If you guys want a fully interactive LCD screen in your Creature, you're going to pay for it, though. I think the guy's from Spain, and you're thinking about U.S. dollars. It's probably around $900, $950. so quite a bit of moolah for your interactive display now i bought an lcd screen it is not interactive it just plays clips but drew what would you think oh it here's the thing other than having the creature there you know showing up in the lagoon this thing it's probably better because, I mean, the screen just looks better. It's newer. It's the LCD. It's, you know, I watched it a little bit before. There was some artwork of, you know, this cartoony, like, creature holding the woman in a bikini. Yeah. So he did all these different things, and then he had some subtitles on there doing some funny stuff. Oh, yeah, there was a clip on there with a creature running around smashing things from the movie, and every time it was like, fuck this lamp. Fuck this boy. Like, see that. Fuck this girl. I like that guy. Fuck that. Fuck this thing. It was just subtitled. It was really funny. This is a humorous game, and I think that really adds to it. And because when does the creature actually come up if you have the regular thing? Well, when you spell out film. Okay. And then you play the movie. You get the multiball. And then I think when you find the creature, he pops up. Okay. And he does the thing, you know. It's the gimmick. Which I'm sure that it's fine. I've seen videos of it. And there's other parts in the game where he does it too, I believe. But just from, you know, being that this is like an art piece that you can play in Ian's basement, I think it's a better use of the space. Yeah, definitely. So I dig it. The one I got, he's actually from Australia. It's Juzpinball, J-U-Z pinball. He's got a website. It's Juzpinballmods.com. J-U-Z. J-U-Z. And you do have to do a little bit of searching, but he has the creature thing, and I think I paid a little over $300. Oh, that's awesome. You know? So for the effects. That was with sniffing? Yeah. So for the effects and the best thing for your buck and not having, I don't need it to be super interactive. Mm-hmm. Because the one thing I know about interactive displays, I'm like a, I'm a dumb man. I like looking at those things. So I end up, it ends up screwing me up. Here's what I'm learning. Most people that come over to my house, they don't give a shit about a mod. They don't. You know, and the more, you know, so I've kind of changed some of my ways I've talked about, and I'll talk about it here in a second. Did you see my dolls? Yeah. Did you see these things? Did you see them? I added that guy. So. In the corner. What I'm doing with my games now, a lot of my money after I buy a game is being spent on lighting effects. Lighting. Like, cool, like, flashing, you know, working with pop bumpers, that kind of thing. Really cool, mostly light mods. that do, like I said, do light up certain parts of the pinball machine or something that really highlights something cool. So what do Metallica and Ghostbusters have in common, other than they were made by Stern? They have UV lighting, UV painting. They do. They do. That's not where I was going with this. Shit. Okay. All right. But we'll start there. I'm going to answer your questions in chat in a second. We'll start there. So what I did with Ghostbusters, it was a little dirty, you know, so I took it apart. I got some of the glow. Oh, they both have the red LED dot matrix. Nope. Well, that is true. Wow. So it's two for two, but that's not the answer I'm looking for. Damn it. We're still getting there. All right. Keep going. Sorry. So he is correct, though. He is correct. And now I have a color DMD in Ghostbusters, which, by the way, there's no reason not to get one. So I took off all the plastics, and I got the glow-in-the-dark rubbers from Titan with the UV lights from Titan. You know, Skywalker, don't kill me. No, he liked it. Yeah, I put those. Maybe he didn't. I don't know. I put the UV lights in those Janos Kiss by the sling. There's so many to give you. And holy shit, does that thing pop. Yeah. You know, and then I saw someone did that on Attack from Mars, and I'm like, well, now I want to Attack from Mars even more. I know it. Anyway, that's a whole other discussion. We're not even getting into that today. So, Mod, do you like lighting? Yes. So I did. I like my stadiums. It's a must for me. So then I hooked up a couple of the Comet Matrix light strips to interact with the pop bumper light. There's a big light in the middle of the pop bumpers. So when the pops are going off, and there's a lot of pop action in that game. Talking about ghost bumpers. Yeah. So I have a blue and red strip on the side. It just goes nuts. Yeah. And it's just a really cool effect because it's only with the pop bumpers. Yes. So just, you know, cool stuff like that. It's subtle. You'll notice it, but you don't even know the, you know what I mean? So just that kind of stuff is what I'm really into now. So what's the answer? Those fucking games are the two most heavily modded games in the history of the world. Oh, yeah, I believe it. Like, you go, no, no, no, I'm not kidding. You go to, just go to, like, Measel Mods, right? And they have their whole screen of games, right? You can pick, they got all the pictures of the games. And underneath it tells how many mods they have available. Most games, 10 to 12. Metallica, 52. Ghostbusters, 38. Wow. And I'm like, it's not even close. Yeah, no doubt. I pick up Shadow. I'm like, how many mods you got for this? Four. You know, and it's like backbox lighting or something. And I'm like, okay, cool, because I don't have to spend money on it. There are so many fucking cool mods for Ghostbusters and Metallica. I can't even fucking stand it. All right, so let's get some questions on chat popped up here. All right, so Magic Man. We're going to call him Magic Man. Magic Man 110. Yeah, what color are you doing with that powder coat? What color powder coat are you doing on Creature? I have not chosen 100%. I have chosen 100%. What are you kidding me? I want to go with the blackest, glossiest black I can possibly get. I mean, phantom black. I want your soul to get sucked into this black, because I think with the black artwork, the black coin door, See, what's sexy about this game is not only just the greens, the teals, the purples, and the greens, but it's that empty space that's so sexy. It's that black that really just makes everything else pop. And that's kind of my whole thing I got. So artwork, my artwork is kind of fucked up around where my legs bolt into the machine. So I do have, like, those foam towels. Hold on, I got... like these leg protectors which cavalier says put fat ass chrome on it nah that shit needs to get all like that that chrome gets too smudgy um we got we got green leg protectors green leg protectors from pinball life they're the wrong color green i have to paint these things but i'll match the green from creature and paint these things up and put the black legs on top of it. Did you consider the standard green or purple? No, because I don't like that. It's too much for me, man. Okay. I just, for me, like, a lot of the powder coats, there's a difference. And I'm a color guy. I'm a paint guy. So when I look at some of these, I think, okay, this guy is bitching to other people about their clown puke LEDs that other people do in their machines. And then he's like, look at mine. And it's the clown-pukiest powder coats you've ever seen. And you go, well, is that not clown puke, though, when they do the big, bright? No, I agree that. Look at Laser Ward. Now, that's a powder coat that fits that game because of the red accent. You know, I like colors. You're not opposed to the colors on the powder coat. You have to get the color right, guys. And sometimes green is too much for that game because you guys can pull the green from the creature, but I feel like it's just too much. what if what is hard to match that green by the way what if you did like a a really dark green into black and like faded color 101 greens blues purples extremely hard to match 100 so when you look at something like creature that has a lot of green a lot of purple yeah man i'm not i'm not even touching it because it just doesn't it's never going to look quite right especially when you photograph it but with the black i think the black that looks slick i I think it looks more like sports car and less gaudy look at me pinball cribs. Sorry, Zach. Love you. But you know what I'm saying? Sure, sure. So that's where I'm going with it. Now, that's not the case for every game because not every game needs black powder coat. I think there are certain games that could do very well with colored powder coat. It just depends. It depends. It's all personal preference. If you have green powder coat and you love it, hey, man, I'm happy for you. It's my personal preference. But, no, if you did it, you spent the money, you got it, and you love it, fuck yeah. Josh Mudd's Whitewater has blue powder coat. It's beautiful. It does look good. He's got hot pink on hard bodies. Yes. Beautiful. Yes. So pretty. Well, you know, it's funny. When I got Shadow, Dave Jeff Brenner's like, he's like, oh, if you ever want to sell it, call me first. He goes, but I prefer not to have any powder coat. Yeah. But then it got me thinking. I'm not doing anything with that one. But I was like, what would I do? And then with that one, it's chrome. Yeah, yeah, chrome's an option. The Shadow's got the gun handle. You chrome the gum handle. Yeah, yeah. You chrome the whole thing. You chrome the powder door. Oh, it looks good. The coin door looks really good. No, it has to fit the machine. It's like you've got to think like a Jersey Jack because I think they do a really good job with their color selection. That is very true. So when you see a game, just look at some of the features, some of the accents, and then try to match them as best as you can. Let me ask you this. Attack from Mars, do you prefer the chrome or the green? Attack from Mars? The new LEs come with the green. See, I don't like that as much. Okay, so you like the chrome then on that. Or would you do a different color? I'd try to probably do something close to like the red. Do like a red? That would be cool. Yeah, like a red or I'm trying to picture Attack from Mars. Yeah, no, I'd probably go red, something like that. I don't know. Okay, one more. One more. What about Ghostbusters? Ghostbusters? Now, that one I would like to do more of a purple. Zach had that purplish pink. I don't know if you ever saw his. Purplish pink, yeah. Yeah, it was like a... I like that. It was like a muted pink-ish, I guess, kind of maroon-ish almost. Yeah, I would go purply pink on that one. Okay. Something hot. Okay. Something sexy as shit. Okay. Because Ghostbusters I might go crazy on. All right. Lots of messages there. We'll keep going to these questions here. All right. Let's see here. Yes, this is interactive. If Mike D. Mott is an erector, I thought it was. I just wanted to double check. Let's see here. What's your opinion on the huge creature topper? Yes or no? Cause. So the first time I ever saw that huge creature topper was when I was flying to, God, I don't even know what vacation I was on at the time. But they had like, you know, like what's the airline like magazine with the catalog? Oh, SkyMall. SkyMall. I saw that. It was meant for lawns. so you can put it on like your grass and creatures are coming out of your grass. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So every time I see it, I'm like, oh, that's that grass copper that people put on creatures. No, I've seen it in person on creatures. They look fine. They look fine. It'd be cool if we could somehow like light those up a little bit, but for the most part, I think they're pretty awesome and detailed, and who doesn't like a giant creature on the top of a machine? Tim Lee just sent me a picture of his old Ghostbusters with like a purplish. Yeah, no, Tim Lee, that's beautiful. It does look good. That's sharp. That's where I would go with that one. Okay. Yeah, that's gorgeous, Tim. Well, Tim Lee, that might be where I go. I do like that. No, I would go purplish. Yeah. Like a hot purple or like a hot pink. Either one of those. It would depend on your play field. Oh, magenta was the word I was looking for with Zach. Magneta. Zach had his coin drawer and the armor and the lockdown. Everything was like this magenta color. It was really cool. All right. Let's see. Magic Man. No. So some people don't like the topper. Ghosting LEDs. Question mark. You should have legs airbrushed to look like seaweed. Okay. We going that route Fliptronic I got you Well that what I was kind of asking Like if you did the armor and you had like some artist do like that kind of greenish kind of like under type mucky that might be kind of cool if you could do it right If you could pull it off. Yeah, that's the thing, though. If you pull it off, I can't pull it off. Well, I know. I've seen a lot of very cool intricate jobs done on their painting you know on cabinets and legs and I think artists do remarkable work oh absolutely I'm a big fan of a lot of it put fat ass chrome on it black is the correct answer thank you magic man 110 see I do disagree with you guys there I'm a huge fan of black red's my favorite color but for these machines just because wait until I do it man, you're going to change your mind maybe here's my thing with that because most standard even pro premium games come with either the flat metal, gun metal or black yeah but that's a rough matte black Yeah, correct. But I'm just saying that's... A fucking soul fucking... I understand. ...glossy black. You're going to get the darkest black of all time? Yeah, all my light from this room will fuck into that. And you'll be like, where'd you go? I can't turn on any lights if they all go into the black. But that's what I'm going to literally say to my powder coat. I'm sure it's going to look great. And like I said, your game already looks beautiful. I'm just saying, me personally, I like the color contrast better. I know you do. But you're a bling guy. I am a bling guy. No, not a bling guy. You are a bling guy. Don't stop. Don't stop. I've known you long enough. Sir, I'm not a bling guy. Buddy, you're a bling guy. I love you, man. I've been labeled a bling guy? You are a bling guy. Man. It just doesn't look right with the bright, too bright with the green or the purple powder. I agree with you, man. Okay. Okay. Yes, the color is everything. Powder coat is a love or hate. I only have one game powder coated Cavalier. Look how awful that Led Zeppelin LE looks. Exactly, Tony. It's so true. What is Led Zeppelin, Ellie? Isn't it like yellow or something? Or was that the Avengers? Avengers was yellow. Hold on. Let's look it up. Sorry, guys. Maybe I'm thinking of something. No, I think Led Zeppelin was like an orangish, if I recall. I can't remember, but I think it was orangish. Chrome on gun handle looks beautiful. Yes, we're talking about shadow there. Absolutely. Black sparkles with Scooch. Scooch, you're on my shit list. I can't believe you're agreeing with Ian. oh you're talking about maybe the blue yeah that's the blue ok so yeah that's right so Led Zeppelin did like a white blue like a powder blue if you guys have young kids that's blippy colors but yeah no that orange and blue does not do it for me the yellow on Avengers looked ok see I hated that that's right you did hate that that one looked alright I wasn't a huge fan of it but it was ok and as far as Attack from Mars I like the LA green I do Ghostbusters is a bright machine yeah imagine that Tim, like I said I love your purple black you can't go wrong your game will feel like an LA I think I've said this before guys purple is my favorite pinball color black sparkle, I get it man chrome gun handouts looks too beautiful people will not pay you more for a powder coat if you ever go and sell it unless they have the exact same base as yours. That's very true. That's like your customized cars, right? Well, here's... You get customized hot rod cars, how much you spend, how much you get back when you sell it, right? Here's... Too much is too much, guys. It depends on the size of your collection, but I have a pro tip for you guys. Pro tip? I haven't done this yet, but I've debated it because obviously I've gone through a zillion machines now. So if you buy a Stern Lockdown Bar armor and legs, it's not that expensive. Okay? So you could buy the whole set, and then when you go to sell that machine, you could take the powder coat off, put the original stock stuff on. I knew you were going to go with that. Yeah. The second you open your mouth, it's like, I know what this sucker's going to say. That's what makes us best friends. We just pounded it. So anyway, no, it's just something I toyed with because I'm like, yeah, I'm doing all this shit. And then also, when you're getting your powder coat done, you can also play your game because you can put it all back together. Right. Until your powder coat is gone. Are we boring you guys in powder coat conversations? I feel like this is going forever. We can talk about whatever the fuck we want. There was a time where people wanted to see me in kilts and stuff. Yeah. We got a little wild there. We did. Well, yeah. Are we maturing now on this Twitch platform? You know, my wife said, yeah. I turned 40, man. We need to get a little wild. Let's do it. What are we going to do, shots? Fuck. Yes. Shot, shot, shot, shot, shot, shot, shot, shot, shot, shot, shot, shot, shot, shot. We'll do some Tim Lee shots. Oh, my God. So this is happening now, folks. Thanks for that. We could have just had our boring conversation. But, you know, instead of that, now we're doing this. And Drew's getting a lift on the way home, apparently. Tim Lee says the movie Rad is rad. Yeah, it is kind of rad. New Ghostbusters movie coming out. Going to see a spike in Ghostbusters. Tony Scoots, that's interesting. Do we think the new Ghostbusters movie is going to cause a spike in the Ghostbusters games? I think the Ghostbusters games are already starting. Yeah, I was going to say. Tony Scoots, I'm embarrassed to tell people how much I paid for my Ghostbusters. Yeah. It's smart of you to get it when you did that. Well, maybe. I mean, prices have spiked. I mean, I paid a premium for it for sure, and I'm happy I got it. I'm really enjoying it, but holy shit. Yeah, that new movie looks pretty badass, so I'm really excited about that. Shots, shots, shots. Glenn, a hundred cheers, and it said shots, shots, shots. Shots, shots, shots. Oh, my God. How about that VUCA? Let's see, Magic Man. Drew just talked about daisy-chaining LED strips to his pop bumper flasher and now denying that he is a bling guy. Magic Man, you're going to fit in very nicely here. We have some Sambuca, gentlemen. Sambuca. Sambuca, buca, buca, buca, buca, buca. Do you want the just-to-swallow shot glass? For those of you who can't see it, there's a swallow on there. Or do you want the – we're bird team today. You want the tweet-tweet? I want the just-to-swallow. You can tweet, tweet. All right, I'll tweet it. Oh, man, so Magic Man knows me already. I like flashy things and blingy things, and I'm a bling guy. I know you're a bling guy. That's what I'm saying. Apparently I've been labeled. Here's the labels. And next I'll be known as the red face guy. We welcome all you guys to chat. We have 100. It's going to get a little wild tonight because I'm on vacation and poor Drew is just along for the ride. I want to thank all the 150,000 viewers we have right now. So for all you 150,000, thank you. Thank you very much. If you guys just donate $1, we can retire. Yep, to Kaneda's Patreon. To Kaneda's Patreon. Let's cheers Kaneda. Wow, that's pretty good. Sambuca's. I don't know that I've ever had that. Have we had that before? Sambuca? No, man. It's a shot, shot, shot. It's like a licorice. Yeah, it tastes exactly like black licorice, which I'm not a huge fan of. I am not either, but it's good in liquor form for whatever reason. It's really good. It clears everything out. It's good for the soul. It's a good after-dinner shot. All right, let's see here. What else? Are we caught up here? Is my soul clean? No, we're not. You've got to slow down. Josh Mudd's house is powder-coated. It's so beautiful. Oh, man. The movie Rad is rad. That movie looks rad. Tim Lee, let's talk clear coat. I was going to say that earlier. Yeah. Let's talk clear coat. Fuck you, Tim. Schwan song. Shot, shot, shot, shot, shot. Macho, macho man. Put a gummy in the bottom of the glass. No, we might die. No, that's a good idea. Maybe I will go up and get some gummies. Don McCoskey watched The Poor Men. Magic Man himself. Oh, we love the Magic Man. It's about time I used your face to adjust the color on my TV. It's been a while since we got rid of it. Oh, thanks, Ace H-Track. Oh, Magic Man. Dad joke. Let's do a dad joke. Oh, yeah. We haven't had one. All right. I'll go first this time. All right.

I'm not surprised. I'm surprised you're not using Windows 95. He upgraded. That's the joke. Jeremy's not there to impress the ladies, okay? When he boots up his computer, he doesn't mind the rolling green hills and the XP logo. He likes it. Oh, Jeremy came over the other day. Oh, yeah? And we hung out and had some beers. It was great. My wife was hanging out with a friend. It was boring. I was like, Jeremy, come over here. He's like, oh, I'm on my way. Jeremy's so fucking killer, dude. Oh, my wife. Jeremy, my wife loves you.

I told Ian and his wife when I came over earlier, The last, like, four days, like, you know, I work all day, and then I come home, and, like, it's quiet. I think it's going to get a little while you talk about it. And what I do is I take a gummy, and I've been watching the entire Rick and Morty series. And holy shit, if you guys haven't seen it, With or Without Gummies, that is a spectacular show. I freaking love that show. So I've just been watching it. I'm on season three right now. because I've never watched every episode, so I'm really enjoying it. It's good writing. It's just hilarious. It's quality, quality TV. Anyways, we've got one more dad joke here from Dnut77. What do you call a boomerang that doesn't come back? Dnut, you better answer that because I don't know what it is. I don't have the answer, and I'm here by myself. What do you call a boomerang that doesn't come back? We'll get back to that one. uh cavalier get high and watch rick and morty i'm on it yeah jeremy you really should man it's it's a good time it is spectacular uh gleno says how the hell do you keep up with the jokes of rick and morty on a gummy you know what gleno it depends on the dose if i do five milligrams it's just hilarious and i i do fine if i do 10 or 15 milligrams oh it's a little little rough to be honest I'll go back and watch a few the next day just to kind of catch up with where I was uh what do you call a boomerang that doesn't come back the answer is a stick um good good times guys good times I know we haven't talked much about pinball today but this is really awesome hanging out with you guys um I'll read one more dad joke while we're waiting on Ian here. So I got a good one here. I got arrested for stealing a whole set of encyclopedias. I said to the police, wait, I can explain everything. Ian came back with it. You missed it. Glenno is like, how do you keep up with Rick and Morty on a gummy? And it's hard, because it's a smart show. No, you don't. I can't keep up with the show. It's a smart show. So for you guys, but like I said, I do recommend it, because it is such a smartly written show. You know what I've been getting into? I'm just turning into a fucking Friday episode. Let's just go that way. Let's go that way. Netflix, season one, Star Trek, the original series with frickin' William Shatner. It's fucking killer, guys. It's so much fun. The first season of Star Trek is 100% Twilight Zone in space. So this is the original... William Shatner, Leonard Nimoy, showing up. They go to a planet. Every episode's the same you need four dudes that are gonna die yep right yeah so captain kirk spot and four dudes no name they're just there to die they go to a planet they find some fucking crazy shit on this planet there's no unexplained yep yep and they died in crazy ways like they had this one boy that was like turning people's faces like just skin like removing their face and so it was like Twilight Zone. So Twilight Zone. It was 100% Twilight. I'm convinced the guys who made that also wrote for Twilight Zone. So, because there was Twilight Zone episodes. Well, that was at Arrow, sure. Twilight Zone episodes that were 100% ripped off in the first season of Zac Stark. I've been loving it. There is. I was, sorry. I was expecting. I was expecting. Well, we have Klingons in section four. Yeah, yeah. And we need to. Okay, sir. We're going to need to go full power up on our shields, and we're going to have to make sure. The usual bad writing. We're going to have to make sure that we eliminate any possibility of their blaster fire on our shields, and we're going to go and warp four, okay? Sounds good, Scotty. Beat me down, bitch. But no, what I got was, oh, we just picked up this innocent kid. Oh, my God, I don't have a fucking face. He lost his face. Tim Lee says, William Shatner was on Twilight Zone for three episodes. See, he was. He was. I didn't know that. A young. And by the way, William Shatner. Hang on. Hang on. Magic Man. Is this still technically the personal for this new segment? Magic Man, you are new to this show. Let me explain how this works to you. It's all personal. So we start off with every good intention to talk about pinball. This is going to be 100% about pinball. All we're going to do is talk about pinball news and how great pinball is. and I want to jerk off watching pinball. I love it. Pinball, pinball, pinball. Pinball from Galway. Pinball here, pinball there. And then we start talking about Ian's creature, and then it goes to Ian's creature in his pants, and then the next thing you know, here we are talking about no faces. Shots, shots, shots, shots, shots, shots, shots. Bad jokes got us going, guys. So there's what, yeah. You know what? We're abandoning pinball for today. I'm sorry, guys. It's happening. I love you guys. You can stay with us as long as you want. There is an episode of Futurama, which I know you're not a huge fan, but there's one episode of Futurama where there's this alien kid, okay? Yeah. And so one of the kind of central things in Futurama is? Futurama, Drew's dream theme. For you guys who don't know. Yep, yep. Oh, see, bringing it back, bringing it back. For you guys, if you guys haven't watched Futurama, What they do is they take celebrities from today and the 70s and the 80s and 60s, and they have their heads in jars. Yes. So they're the actual celebrity, and they preserve their heads. And that's like an ongoing thing in the Futurama world. So William Shatner has been in there. Who has all these heads? They're all over. Oh, they're just people's living rooms and shit? Yeah. So they have a museum with all the presidents. Okay. So they have George Washington, Bill Clinton. So they went back to get George Washington? No, they're just there. You don't know how they got them, okay? But they use these. You're so suck. Shut up. I'm going somewhere with this. Sorry. But I'm just kind of setting the scene. They have William Shatner's in there, Al Gore's in there, you know, and they all do their own voices, which is great, right? Is Al Gore on the show? Yeah. So you're in the year 3000. I'm sorry. Al Gore, they should have flushed that head a while ago. Oh, Jesus. Nobody cares about his head. This isn't politics. Well, no, I'm just saying, if you're going to freeze a bunch of celebrities' heads, Al Gore is not on the list. They have Pamela Anderson in one episode. She's on the list. Okay, she's on the list. Absolutely, the things that would do to her head. There's an episode where this alien boy, who's larger than the average person, he's this big whatever, he has all the original Star Trek heads, William Shatner, Leonard Nimoy, right? Yeah. The whole original cast, right? Sulu? Yes. And he's reenacting the scenes on this alien planet. And so they go through some of that bad acting and stuff on, like, an alien planet. So it's kind of meta. Yeah. You might like that episode. Oh, God, that's cool. It is. It is kind of neat. I've been getting so into it. Sulu's a good-looking guy, too. Man, these are, like, really good-looking guys. Like, you know, growing up, I remember seeing the original episodes. However, I was so young. Magic Man. Just Pam's head? What's the point? Yeah, I know. There's things I could do to that. I could do plenty. That's all I need. Oh, Ian, he did invent the Internet. He's talking about Al Gore. Oh, fine. You know what? Good for him. I'm so happy. Cause, Steve Ritchie's going to JJP to make Futurama. Steve Ritchie, go do it. Yeah, because that's what Steve Ritchie wants to do. Anything high stakes and badass goes through Futurama. Flip N Out Pinball. When can I come visit and do a show? there's room in between you fellas. My favorite segment of Poor Man's Pinball is want to hear about this TV show. Thanks, Stephen Silver. We love you, man. I miss you. You are so correct. Because at least once an episode we go, hey, you know I was watching this week? Watching this shit. And it was crazy. No, original Star Trek, the first season, completely badass. Zach, you can come by anytime. Zach, we should definitely do that. That would be hilarious. You could sit right here. on one of our laps, or both of our laps. We'll figure it out. We'll put a knee up. You can sit on both of our laps. Our knees are touching now. And we can see what comes up. They're sweaty. They're very sweaty right now. I'm drooling. I'm drooling just thinking about Zach being in my basement. Kyle says, what about Zach's Market Trends TV and movie segment? Too much, guys. Too much. Anyway. Magic Man. Al Gore didn't invent the internet, but he did make up global warming. Ooh, we're not getting into politics, guys. Tell me more. Star Trek Troopers. Do you want to know more? Yes. Did you see there's a Star Trek Trooper animated film on Netflix? No way. Really? Is it new? Yes. They animated it, and Rico's in it, his voice. That actor has nothing better to do because he was in that one movie. Raise your hand if you saw Starship Troopers. The original? Yeah. Starship Troopers? Everybody saw that fucking movie. Are you kidding me right now? Raise your hand, guys. Raise your hand in chat if you saw Starship Troopers. I want... You know what? No, no. Raise your hand if you didn't see it. First off, time out. For you guys listening at home, I'm raising both hands. Audio. Because fuck that show. It's a movie. Fuck that movie. It's not a great movie. I haven't seen it. Go ahead. Tell us your story. Jeremy raised his hand that motherfucker hasn't seen movies since 1952 Jeremy you don't own a TV you and Jeremy brother you and the guy that doesn't own a TV everyone else in there Star Trek Troopers 1 is good the sequels suck the flick sucks hey man listen hang on one more I love the cutting edge TV shows you're talking about Futurama and Star Trek Yep, we're talking about all the new stuff. All the stuff that's come out in the last 50 years. Listen, he's 40, I'm 39, going on 40. We got things we got to deal with, okay? And that's reliving some TV shows. Did you know Starship Troopers has Denise Richards in it? Nope, but now I'm going to see it. And did you know there are some sweet boobie action in that movie? No, I have to see it. See? And he didn't know. I'm going to go see it tonight. I've seen all three. It says D-Nuts. Did you see the one? There's an animated one, right? Is that the fourth one or the third one? I don't know. Man, you guys catch the rerun of M.A.S.H.? I have seen it. Alan Alda is my favorite actor. I love Alan Alda. I've tried my best to watch M.A.S.H. I did. I watched a couple episodes, and I was like... Because it's like half serious, half joking. It's weird. Like, at one moment, they're seriously, like, playing pranks with, like, scalpels, and then the next minute, they're like, oh, we gotta save this person or they're gonna die. Yeah, it's too much. It was too much. Cheers, on the other hand, you know, you watch the first season. Cheers is good. Cheers is good, man. We really are. Cheers is good. You know that theme song? That's a theme song you do not skip on Netflix, right? Nope. You watch Cheers? You certainly don't. We don't skip that. Come in. Grab a seat. the bar is open. Cheers is iconic. Cheers is good, man. Would Cheers make a good pinball machine? No, not at all. Okay, guys, we're going full circle. We're going back to pinball. We'll try to get back to pinball. What 80s sitcom would make a good pinball machine? My vote's all in the family. Oh, my God. First of all, that was the 70s. Okay, we can say 70s or 80s. So here's the thing. It ran into the 80s. I'm dying here. Hold on. Boys, boys, boys, it's time for Golden Girls Pinball. Didn't Joe Balcer make Starship Troopers? Cavalier just says, I can relate to Cheers. Favorite episode was one where Cliff wins on Jeopardy. Yeah, that was a good one. All right. What? Cheers is a good fucking show. Okay, 70s, 80s, or 90s. We can go the whole gamut. 70s, 90s? A sitcom, though. an actual sitcom sitcoms are so hard they are exactly the themes don't go well with pinball no they don't you know people said a lot of people not a lot but Star Trek did well I've seen I've seen more mentions of Seinfeld because obviously that was a huge hit and I'm like how do you make that into a pinball machine dead joke dead joke time but go ahead How would you make, just use Seinfeld as an example, how would you make that into a pinball machine? You would not. I mean, you know, people would buy it. Lots of Jewish jokes. D-Nut says Mork and Mindy. That'd be kind of fun. It would be fun. It definitely would be. I'm not saying it wouldn't be fun. No, I think that would be the whole point of how funny those would be. I'm being serious. Home Improvement. I'm being serious. How would you make that into a pinball? I'd love to see it. Fresh Prince of Bel-Air. Fresh Prince would be a really good one, I think. The artwork alone would be amazing. Mm-hmm. I would try to help. I would fill out as best I could. You know what my son said to me? He said, Dad, once I reach 99 pounds, I'll eat one pound of nachos. Then I'll be 99% your son and 1% nacho son. I don't know, man. That's gold. That's good. That's good. That is good. What do you call a fake noodle? What's that? An impasta. How does the lawyers say goodbye? I don't know. I'll be suing you. Oh, my God. What? What do you got in chat? Hang on. Dad jokes. Okay, dad jokes. But Magic Man, you'd have to do something like Elf. I could see Elf. Elf would be good, man. Elf would be good. Elf would be real good. Just make sure Elf was a static doll in the back corner that didn't interact with the game. Check. Check. Don't do a thing. Yeah, Stern's already on that. You think this is animatronic time? No way. Seinfeld would be a pinball about nothing. LOL. Absolutely. Be nuts, you're 100% right. If you guys are listening at home, if you guys hear that... Ready? That's Gizmo. Gizmo's here. Now he's in the way of chat for me. Oh, sorry. Gizmo down, Gizmo down. There's nothing animatronic on Guns N' Roses. Yeah, you know, the more I think about Guns N' Roses, even though it's a good game and it's a solid JJP effort. I've not played it. Yeah, I've played enough games on it to be like, it's fun. It's a great experience, but still not for me. No, it's okay. You were the same way about Pirates too, though. You kind of lean that way against Jersey Jack. I do. But see, Pirates, I'd like to have a Pirates. Now you do. You're coming clean. And Dialed In I've always wanted. We know that. Yeah, dialed in is a good one. It needs to be rethemed as Lego. It does. It's good. It's good. Dialed in from a pier, pinball, shots, layout, toys, maxes. It's ridiculous. Yeah. It is ridiculous. It's a great game. So I will say that. Cosby, LOL. Yeah, Jay Sellers, Cosby. Too soon, too soon. Put a quarter in there, you start falling asleep. Uh-oh. Too soon. Pirates way better than Guns N' Roses. Yeah. I'd agree with you. I agree with that. Left ramp, right lamp, scoop in the middle. Tim Lee. Tim Lee. I can't hit any of those shots, so it doesn't matter. Word to your mogwai. Yeah, word to the mogwai. All right, so. So consensus is Fresh Prince. No, nobody tells that. D-Nuts, He-Man, Jay Sellers, Dukes of Hazzard, Cavalier, Knight Rider. Let's see. Hey, D-Nuts. He-Man. He-Man isn't a sitcom. It is totally a sitcom. It is. I don't know. It's a show. Golden Girls. It's a show. I never skip Golden Girls theme. Oh, my God. That one is making Golden Girls. He's also making, what was that one, Laundry Day? Cop Rock? I don't know what that is, Tim Lee. Oh, I do know what that is. It was a show in the 70s or 80s where they literally did a cop drama with a musical. Okay. Brady Bunch, Jay Sellers. Jay Sellers, you're a goddamn man of all men on this thing. You're the one that works on oil refinery rigs, and you're talking about Brady Bunch. Yeah. Step up your game, bro. Jay Sellers. I'm telling all your buddies at work what you're talking about here. Yeah, I'm going to email all the oil rigs and say Jay Sellers likes the Brady Bunch. He wants the Brady Bunch. And the Golden Girls. I got their emails, dude. Anyone want to rant about Kevin Smith and the new Masters of the Universe? No, I think Franchi did enough of that. I got such Franchi at a rant. Was it not good? I didn't see it. No, did you see Franchi's rant? No, I have not heard it. Tell me about that. Oh, my God. I would love to hear. So Tim Lee texted me. He said, did you see what Franchi said about Masters of the Universe? Yeah. And I said, no. The new Netflix show? Yes. Yeah. It looks cool. And he put out a rant that was, I'm showing you guys, for you guys at home, it was 30 lines long, okay? 30 lines of rant. It was a good rant. He didn't like it. And he deleted it shortly after because it was not a good rant and it could have been construed as a little bit sexist. Oh. Oh. So, Tim Lee sent me a screenshot if we want to read it on air. I would love to. Could you send that to me? I will send it to you. Tim Lee, I'm shocked you wouldn't send that to me. I won't read it on air here, but I will say that. We love Franchise. Oh. I remember. I was laughing my ass off when I was reading it. Oh, it was a good rant. Yeah, but at the same time, I was like. Franchise are people. Yeah, but I was like, oh, I know I just upset people. Yeah. So, yeah. No, it wasn't about Masters of the Universe. It was about Kevin Smith in particular. American Gladiators. Homer, EBW. What's up, Eric? Hey. You're late to the party, but you're here. Eric, we love you, man. Hey. Pee Wee Herman Playhouse. Not really a sitcom, but yes, that would make. 100%. Yeah. That one. It would be more based on the movie, though. People would be upset. You think so? You'd have to base it on the movie. I don't think so. The movie was bigger than the show. I don't think so. Mecca lecca hi, mecca hi-na ho. And here's what. And that would be. Mecca lecca hi, mecca hi, oh, Muffy Ball. That would be, like, prejudice these days, right, to have the genie? Jesus Christ, you're right. It would be. You can't have him. Sorry. But. Pimp my ride pin. Imagine the mods. Back to Pee Wee Herman. I love it, Kaz. That show, even though, yes, I'd rather see the movie as well, that show would make a good pinball machine. You have lots of toys, right? You would think. Yeah, you have all kinds of toys. Sons of Anarchy, Jay Sellers. It's too late, buddy. It's over. It's done. The damage was done, Jay. Well, no. You can't go the other route and go totally manly. Yeah, you can't go from Golden Girls to Sons of Anarchy. Yeah, that doesn't work in my book, Jay. There you go. Oh, I love you, Jay. So Magic Man says, apparently He-Man dies in episode one and it becomes an LGBTQ Tila show. Oh, spoiler alert. What the fuck's wrong with everybody? Yeah, but what I gather is what the backlash was about. All right. I will check it out, but I don't need to hear any of it. Shame on you all. Drew wants a 21 Jump Street pin. Only if it's the movie with Jonah Hill and what's his name? Chan Tatum. You know what? Funniest story about 21 Jump Street. I have stories about everything, but 21 Jump Street. No one has a story about that. I do. I was watching on HBO. Guys, I'm telling you, if you have HBO Max, the only show you should be watching right now is The Warrior. It's the best show. I'm going to watch. You kept saying that. You keep saying that. It is the best show. It is the best show. It's so great. And more people need to watch this thing because I think it was a Cinemax thing, and HBO now has the rights to it, and they're going to start making a season three, which they should because it's so freaking good. But one of the big baddies in this, there's lots of tongs. There's lots of bad guys. Say tongs? Tongs. They're gangs. Like tongs. Like the tongs you use for your grill? Rival gangs called tongs. One of these guys is like this barbarian, freaking badass guy, right? Get your togs out. He looks scary as shit. He looks scary as shit, and he's badass, and he's fucking killing all these people, and he's super bad. I was like, man, he looks familiar. The whole show, he looks familiar. He looks familiar. He was on 21 Jump Street. He was the Asian guy in that clique. Remember the Asian guy? He always wore the really big jackets, had the real big hair. He was a martial artist, the guy who played Jump Street. Okay, yeah. Oh, my God. Sorry, Jeremy. How do you find time to watch TV? Because obviously we're not playing pinball or talking about pinball. Oh, how do I find time? Oh, I do it with my wife. That's what my wife and I do together. Jeremy, this is what I do late at night because I can't play pinball late at night because my wife will murder me. So we have, like, ladies that yell at us all the time. So I play my pinball in the morning, and then at night when I come home, she goes to bed early because she works early, so that's when I watch all the crazy TV. When are we talking about pinball? Eventually. We'll get to it. What else we got from pinball, Drew? Anything? No. Okay. That's cool. How about seafood? Should we talk about seafood? Yes. Should we get seafood for sure? Yes. Let's do that. What about seafood? Did you hear? Have you been listening to Kaneda? No, but I want to know what's going on. So Kaneda put up like a six-minute episode. And he played, what music did he play? I think it was, if I recall correctly, correct me if I'm wrong, Chad, I think he was playing some of the Imperial March music for Star Wars, I believe. We'll listen to it. But it was about six minutes long, and over the audio of that, he was playing all the shit that Robert Mueller has been saying. Like all the positive things, right? where he was like, yeah, we're going to, you know, we don't worry about the competition because we're going to produce so many games, et cetera, et cetera. And, you know, I take my dogs for a walk every morning. I listen to this shit. I'm in the cemetery laughing my ass off at all this shit, you know, walking around doing it, and I'm like, oh, my God, it was great. It was six minutes of Robert Mueller saying how great they were, how many games they were going to ship. and I almost for a moment, you know, because me, I'm a nice guy. I felt bad for the guy. I'm like, holy shit. Like, this guy said all this shit and like now his, like, company's crumbling essentially around him. Yeah. And he was but he was talking some real shit. Like, you know. I am just shocked it's 2021 and nobody has a Deep Root game. That's what I'm saying. It's shocking. Like, it's almost too much. They closed those order banks, what? Right before New Year's, I think. Right? So it's been seven months now since they closed the order banks. They sold 122 games, and not one game had left the factory. Jay Sellers, games will be out two weeks after orders are taken. Yes, sorry. Yeah, he was saying that. No, you listen to this. Oh, shit. And every time he says something, you're like, this is a joke. This is a joke. This is crazy. And he keeps saying it. He hired so many good pinball minds, though. Oh, but, yeah, the two-week thing was what? Remember that damn, what was it, TPF when they all lined up and they were talking about just wait, just wait. We're going to make you cum your pants with pinball. That would be the equivalent of someone coming into the NFL right now and saying, I invented a new position. Well, that or, like, you know, who's the passing leader right now, Tom Brady or Peyton Manning? Aaron Rodgers. Number of yards. Whatever, right? Doesn't matter. Yeah, touchdowns, number of yards. It would be like a quarterback coming into the league and being like, I'm going to throw more touchdowns than Aaron Rodgers and Tom Brady combined. Yeah, that's it. You know, right? That would be exactly it. Yeah. You know, and people are like, okay. Yep, and I'm going to have more passing guys than Brett Favre and Phillip Rivers. Yep. You know, in five years. Yep. You know, it's just crazy. I'm going to bang all of your wives right now. And you're like, damn, Robert Mueller, seriously, I just want pinballs. Quit saying things like that, Robert. And weirdo. Jay Stowers says, does anyone even still work at Deep Root? Iceman, I guess, because he lives like five minutes from there. Iceman. He was driving by every day and taking pictures of the parking lot. This went on for weeks. And they're not good guys. There were days there were like three cars in the parking lot Now Stern just for kind of a visual here Stern employs like 300 or 400 people Yes And when they cranking out full production they might have 200 people making games Yes. Right? And they're making, what did they say, like 50 games a day, whatever it is. So if Deeper has two guys there, one of them is Robert Mueller, you know, he's not wrenching any games together. So is there one guy that Robert Mueller is like, hey, can you put this game together for me, please? What? No, I'm just saying. Oh, yeah. It's brutal. It's ugly. So I don't know. It's crazy, though. But do yourself a favor. Share me what? Come in pants? I don't care. Robert Mueller is just trying to get all your ladies to come in. I know some of you guys don't like Kaneda, and that's fine. Listen to that episode. It's only six minutes long. it's like that's not even Canadian pocket it is literally just Robert Mueller spouting off all this stuff that's gonna happen goddammit Robert we really wanted you to do it we did we did we were rooting for him we have the Goonies license don't fuck this up Robert oh it's fucked can we make predictions like seriously we might as well we don't care it's a four man spinball podcast we're the number one news source first off all our predictions come true 100% of the time. Second off, we don't fuck around. All right, Drew, what do you got? Third off, we only talk about pinball. Three, totally pinball all the time, every day, all day long. Hey, did you see that show? When we turn this off, it's still pinball. We play pinball. Did you see that show? I've seen it. That's going to be a new tagline. It's a great show. It's a pinball podcast. Did you see that show? Did you see that show? That's actually pretty good. Floppy show on the internet, baby. We're here for entertainment purposes only. So Deep Root, do they get a game out in 2021? We're getting close to that. No. No. If it's one game, maybe. Cavalier, don't lie. Food Truck is my first new in box. You know how I know that's a lie? You would never buy a new in box game. No, I wouldn't. It wouldn't. No, he would never buy a new in box game. No, he wouldn't. Jeremy, you're more likely to buy your lunch from a food truck than you are to actually buy the food truck game. Spoonjer and Ian will be so slid we'll need closed captioning. Well, you don't already? Okay, golden girl. I got your number. So you guys in chat, does Deep Root get a single game to a customer in 2021? And then furthermore, a second part of that question, okay, let's pretend that they get 122 games to their Raza customers, okay? Do they get a second game on the line and out the door? Next year? Sure. Tim Lee says no two no's Cavalier says no so we got three no's Magic Man no come on where's the deep root lovers nobody wants to show up now one of them is going to say I love Robert Mueller yes that's his name yes I heard deep root was bringing a food truck to Expo and not the pin an actual food truck thanks guys that was that was good uh jay sellers no poor man's pinball podcast ian's here he says yes but he's wrong uh Stephen Silver yes and that customer pays an extra thousand dollars and j-pop and ben heck are contractually obligated to show up at their house and build it well this game is now ten thousand dollars and ben heck will be i could see ben heck building a pinball machine, but going like, oh, shit. Hey, man, you got a coffee maker? Yeah, I got a coffee maker. Let's tear that apart. I need circuits. I got to make this fucking ball trough work. Oh, my God. No, sir. Ben Heck. I love it. The food truck would never show up. It would just be Robert in the parking lot promising he'll be there in 10 minutes. We got hot dogs coming, folks. The hot dogs are coming. These are the best hot dogs you've ever had in your life. You're going to want to pay 20, but I'm only charging you 10, but I'm not here yet. Oh, my God. They'll get three games out and then close down. D-Match, you're really giving us some credit. You think they're going to make it three games? Well, no, I'm being serious. You think they're going to shut down after the three games? Well, yeah. Oh, like three separate? Three titles. Three titles, are you saying, D-Match? Are you saying they're going to build three games? If you say three Razzles, I would say yes. If you say three titles. The Imagine Man's with us. Three titles or three rosters. Yes. D-Nuts, three collaborate. Two op students of the spectrum here. All the hours were done by Deep Root. They had to eventually produce some games. Too much pride for them to fold up. I understand Kaz. Taco truck. I know you, Jeremy. But Kaz, I mean, even though Robert's a millionaire, there's still money. Right now he's a thousandaire. Yeah, I was going to say. Money runs out eventually. I mean, someone's got to pay all these people. I was a thousandaire, and then I ran into a creature from the Black Lagoon, and now I'm a hundredaire. True story. Three total games. Dad jokes? Yep, dad jokes. Yeah, that's it, buddy. D-nuts, you are correct. Three games. All right, here we go. Here we go. Yep, yep. Ding! Here we go. Can I drive in this pool? It depends. Oh, my God. Why shouldn't you put more than 239 beans in a soup? I have no idea. Because adding just one more would make it too farty. Oh, God. Oh, that's terrible, Drew. Drew saw that and fucking screenshotted it, guys. All right, what do you guys got for dad jokes? I got some more here. Give us your dad jokes. What musical instrument do you find in the bathroom? A tube of toothpaste. Oh, my God. All right, I'll stop. What's the quickest way to become a millionaire? Have a billionaire invest in Deep Roots. That's not a dad joke. That's a sad reality. Did you hear about the one about the... Oh, no way. No, no, we did that one. What kind of shoes does the lazy person wear? Loafers. Kyle says, we know they can build a game. They had two Razzas at a coffee shop last year. Take that, darn. And Robert's like, can I buy these games back from you? I've got to send these to customers. shot shot shot shot shot shot you want a shot? yeah give me a little sambuca a little sambuca it's for the deep root this is our deep root shot let's be sincere for one second one second of sincerity please folks guys ladies and gentlemen we only want deep root to succeed because deep root if they succeed means we have another player kids and that would be amazing well it would be it would be absolutely amazing now we're giving robert chip for the shit he said in the past and i know shit is tough right now for him because they can't get parts in which is it's a mind fuck just in general but robert if you're listening we haven't given up yet well some of us have but i haven't given up because i think that the future can be bright if you just continue on you're going to go through your hardships but it would be amazing to have another pinball manufacturer manufacture like a JJP because it sounds like he wants to be like a JJP that's fine but can I play devil's advocate here can we just say we would love another player oh we absolutely would that's all I was going to say no I am not cheers god damn it we're drinking that's really good though you took a little I'm sipping on my Sambuca. You literally, Drew just put his tongue and stuck it in the swallow. Let me sip on my Sambuca, asshole. I remember when you were 21. Oh, my God. Yeah, I remember that, too. We talked about it on a Valentine's Day episode. Deeproot. Pour a little out on the floor. Okay. You know what? There's things I don't like to do, man. So, Spooky Pinball. Surprisingly. When Spooky Pinball started, they had no money. Okay? Yes. They didn't have, Charlie wasn't a millionaire, okay? Charlie was a middle class dude from Benton, Wisconsin. Yes. And we can say that because we're from Wisconsin. He was just a middle class dude like us, right? Yes. I get the sense that Damien from Haggis Pinball, not a millionaire, right? I don't know. I don't know what he does. Does anyone know what Damien does? He builds pinball machines now. But no, honestly, I don't. It took him like three years to build them, but it's like he wasn't selling them. So what was he doing to eat and feed himself? Who knows? And he'd go into a bigger factory. Does anyone know Damien's financials? It's none of our business. He's our buddy, but still, it's crazy. We should talk to Damien about that. That's the hard-hitting shit that Pinball Podcast, Poor Man's Pinball Podcast does. Pinball Podcast. We can use Charlie as an example. You okay? Yeah, I'm fine. Okay. I had to burp. You looked a little spazzy. No, I said to burp. So Charlie started out with, what's so funny? You, dude. You little asshole. Oh. Charlie was a middle class dude. Thank you, Stephen Silver. And he built what? I think 250 America's Most Haunteds. Okay? Yes. So, for you to say, well, you know, Robert can just build these, you know, 122 rods as he's going to do it. Well, he hasn't done it yet. And he has millions of dollars at his disposal. I understand it. I don't know if a lot of this is coming out of his pocket because he's a businessman first. Well, sure, but he's still got a lot of money. Even his investors, whatever's in the company, is a lot more than what Charlie had is my point. yeah but let's just talk about magic man drew just browned out for a minute it happened it happened sometimes magic man thank you you're new to this no i was looking at him and i saw a blankness oh we're fine we're fine it was so funny whatever it was great anyway so no no no i will i will i will one up this though for you buddy because I love you. New cheer. Thank you, Glenno. Sip, sip, sip. Sip, sip, sip. My boy. Sip, sip, sip. Sip, sip, sip. No, I know where you're going. This is good stuff. I know where you're going with this. I get it. Okay. Okay. But you have to understand a couple things. One, I think Robert Mueller has quite a few pokers in the fire. Pinball isn't everything he's doing. Charlie. That's true. Charlie is a passion. No, absolutely. Absolutely. Pinball is. He's not a weekend warrior. Robert Mueller, a little weekend warrior-ish. Charlie is like hardcore into this, and it shows. Understood. And that's why people support Charlie. If this isn't about who supports Charlie. No, no, no, no, no. Okay, go ahead. But you're talking about the differences between Charlie's resources versus Robert's resources. Yes, correct. And my point is, Charlie may not have had Robert's resources, but he did what he could with what he had. And he was, by God, he was going to make it work. For the audio folks, Stephen Silver. Hey, guys, have you seen this new show called Miami Vice? Fuck you, Stephen Silver. It's right on after TJ Hooker. This is why we don't talk pinball. Yeah, we love you. Every time we talk pinball, people are like, Ian, go into our ranch about some stupid shit. And I can if you want. No, we're doing fine. We're doing fine. Let's do Tribe Member. No, no, we'll do that in a second. I want to hear your thoughts finished on this Charlie thing. No, that was it. That was it? Resources be damned. It comes down to hard work and American muscle. Charlie decided he was going to put everything he had into this company, stink or swim, he's going to do it. Robert Mueller, he's going to dip his toe in the water. And I'm sorry to say that, Robert. I'm sure you put a little bit more than a toe in the water, maybe a penis. I'm not sure. Maybe it's just the head with a little bit of blood in it. But he has investors. He has people that he's responsible. But I'm just telling you, one person's got many pokers in the fire. One guy went all in. But what is your point? My point is, go ahead. Ian browned out for a second. I like that magic man, by the way. We're going to stay after now. It's a brown out minute for the four-minute podcast. Ian and Drew are just staring at the screen. No, it's 100%. It comes down to a work ethic and what you have to do because the shit is hitting the fan. Yeah, but you're kind of talking in generalities now. What is actually going on with Robert? We don't know. Well, no, I understand that. You know that Charlie busted his ass to get those 450 games out. Robert clearly isn't putting that kind of effort into this. Do you think Robert would come on our show? No. I know he wouldn't. No, no, I'm saying if he did. No, I know he absolutely wouldn't now, especially. Hey, Robert, you're welcome anytime at the Four Minutes of Pinball podcast. I call him Bobby. Bobby. I'll text Bobby right now. Hey, Bobby, come on in. If Robert was on our show, don't you think he'd be spewing the, you know. She'd tell us, LOL, brown out. My point is, dot, dot, dot, dot, dot. You know what, Jay? You're just trying to get back at the Golden Girls thing, and I'm sorry, buddy, but. So if Robert was here right now, he would rebut that by saying, no, I'm... Rebute. Sorry, go ahead. I'm going to rebut you right in the fucking ass. That sounds sexual and welcome. I could picture him saying, oh, no, I'm there every day, working hard to make sure these get out. And then what is your response to him? let's just have a fake interview i'll be robert okay let's do it okay all right so you're robert i'm robert Sébastien Muller all right hey robert how are you welcome to the poor man's pinball podcast i'm doing great all right well glad to have you on um it's pretty crazy having you on our podcast among any other podcast in the history of podcast yeah i heard you guys have a lot of listeners we do uh 30 of them tune in every chat it's amazing we love them all thank you everybody tim lee I'm looking at you, buddy. So I got a few questions. If you got a mind, if you don't mind. Oh, I'm here. I'm happy to be here. All right. Robert, Robert. So WTF, man. Wow. What is going on? Tell me more about what is going on with you and the company Deep Root. Because let me just, before you go on, I just want to say you got a lot of us very, very excited. and we really, really are rooting for you to do something really, really special. Unfortunately, we haven't seen a lot in the last five years. What do you think? Well, my plan, my vision has always been to give the pinball world the biggest boner they've ever had. Okay, let's stop you there. How big do you think my boner is right now? Well, after you see Raza. What do you think my pinball boner is looking like? After Raza, I would think it's like through the roof. Really? Yeah. Oh, okay, because I had that boner when I was 13 when I watched Hurricane the first time. So what else do you have in mind? Well, we've been working at Raza for about 150 years. Yeah, I know. And, you know, we're in the final stages. So I think within the next six to eight years, we should have all 122 Razas out the door. Okay. So can I ask you this? Yes, go ahead. Have you decided to do a Jeff Bezos a la a giant penis rocket ship to go out into outer space? And hold on. The fact check to see if Raza is historically accurate. I dream of being like Jeff Bezos every day. But the problem I have is I can't get nearly enough Razas out the door to make any sort of money. Oh, is that right? Yes. We are swimming. in debt right now. It is freaking amazing. If I showed you a balance sheet, you would fucking cry. Yes. I cry myself to sleep every night. It's amazing you said that, Robert, because here I have your balance sheet, right here. And I got to ask you about Line 37. Do you know what Line 37 is on the balance sheet? I haven't looked at it in a while. I haven't been paying very close attention to the finances of our company. So Line 37 is sharks with freaking laser beams attached to their head. So let me ask you this, Robert, as a professional and you as a professional. Why do you need sharks with freaking laser beams on their head? Have you ever seen a shark with a laser beam on its head? I mean, how cool would it be if we could do all these things and we would have the pin bar and then right next to the pin bar would be a shark with a freaking laser beam on its head? I understand the coolness factor, but I don't understand. Are we getting a box of lights or a box of sharks? Yes. All right. All righty then. Okay. So, Robert Mueller, again. So, it's the year 2021. What do you expect Razzles to be in 121 homes? Well, like I said, roughly six to eight years. So, we're looking at about 2027, 2028. We should be all wrapped up with that. We'll be completely bankrupt. Okay. Fair enough. But we really won't have those games out to consumers. Oh, they're not coming at all. Oh, but we're going to promise another 100 games coming by 2050. Let's talk Goonies. Yes. So I know there's two different, I don't know, two different paths you could take, right? There's two different, I don't know, how do you say, just general millions of people here wanting Goonies and millions of people here wanting Food Truck. How are you going to balance that? Very simply. Yeah. Because we spent five or six years on Raja, we're going to have to use the same exact layout. Okay. And we're just going to skin Goonies, and we're going to skin Food Truck right on top. Excuse me. It's a synergy. And I don't mean we're going to have two different games coming out. It's going to be Goonies, Food Truck. Goonies, Food Truck. We're going to slap that shit right on there, and we're going to send that out to the masses. Yeah, Synergy is the word. Octo Manufacturing. Synergy. The Goonies Food Truck. We use these buzzwords to confuse our consumers and to get them excited about our brand new products. So Kaneda has been a relative critic to you. What would you say if you had a microphone that was hot right now to Kaneda? How would you get him excited about the Goonies Food Truck? Chris? I don't know. I just don't know what we're doing, Chris. Chris, I've been saying for so long that we have this on the wraps and we know what's going on. But the reality is, Chris, I don't think it's going to happen. Okay. All right. Well, Robert, I want to thank you. You were very, very informative, very candid. And you know what? I just think the future of Deep Root is just so darn special. and I think it's going to be really amazing to watch Goonies Food Trick come out in 2020. Have you seen a pin bar? I have. But you know what? Why don't you explain the pin bar to everyone because you know what? This is what's going to separate you from everyone. Go ahead. Well, we got a lot of negative feedback from it. And the number one comment we got about the pin bar was what the fuck is a pin bar? So we went back and we revamped the whole thing. And we decided that we're better off being a software company. I'm done. Oh my God. Oh. Oh, that was the best impromptu bit that Ian and I have ever done. Oh, we've tried a lot of stupid shit on this show, but holy cow, was that awesome. Oh, I am fucking crying right now. Ian's pissing his pants back there. If you guys are not watching this, you guys need to get on board. I know you can hear the audio for you audio listeners, but holy fuck. Ian is going around the room laughing, pissing himself because, oh, my God. Oh, that's too good. We've got a lot of negative feedback. Oh, my God. It was one of those things where I didn't think that was going to go as long as it did, but it was just gold. Oh, that was awesome. Holy shit. Shot, shot, shot, shot, shot, shot. Glenelg says, wow, there goes the deepest shot. Oh, oh. Ian's renaming his bar Pinbar says Cod what else Magic Man oh Stephen Silver can you make a brownout excuse me brownout animation for next week that'll just be the brown star that comes in and out oh shit just have the whole screen face to black and then to the back can we do a can we do a cocktail hour can I collect myself oh yeah let's do that we're gonna do a little cocktail break guys oh shit guys that was so fucking funny I don't know why, but it was great. It was perfect. Does Ian usually need a break after his role-playing sessions as Magic Man? Yep, when they're that good. All right, guys, stay tuned. We're going to do a little cocktail break. Here's Glenn's Freeballin'. Oh, shit. All right, I've got to figure out how to. Junkos, deserts and oceans Tell me, Pinstine Now when did you last see a man cry? Quickly close all your eyes Imagine worlds full of wonder Wire forms over an underplate Filled by the Lion Tribe A whole new world Where Cinderella lost her shoe Where Bambi and Thumper go With Pinocchio And the princess meets Prince Charming A whole new world Where Ariel sang in Dumbo Because all of the magic's here It's crystal clear Let me share a Disney pin Let me share this Disney dream With Scar and Mufasa fight Little John and Robin Hood are singing Elsa and Anna are singing Nala thought that her stemba died A whole new world It's a world of new glass Can we hope for a better world? Just like a shooting star You'll fly so far Visit Captain Hook A whole new world A world all in your eyes We're carpet flies and when it's much better, I'll play them anywhere. I'll buy a pair. Let me share this pinball world with you. A whole new world A whole new world With sweet old times And sweet old days We've won all this faith For it's true And victory for free Is the circle of life For the fortunate souls That should work. All right, we're back. We're back, everybody. Woo-woo. I'm sure some of you guys that are on the live stream saw what we were doing, but we're trying to get Glenn's song up and running here, and I think we got it, plus the perfect background. Stephen Silver, can we go back to talking about how Jay Sellers and I are dying for days of our lifespan? Yeah, let's talk about the greatest soap opera. Jesus. Well, Drew, you know, on that Valentine's Day. Good night, Rachel. Good night. Sorry, Rachel. I love you. I apologize. So on that Valentine's Day episode where Drew and I were talking about how we met and there was that threesome involved, the girl he was engaged to, Fallon, who is my ex-wife's sister, she was named after one of the characters in Dallas. Oh, that's right. Her name was Fallon. So there you go. full circle, guys. Full circle. All right, let's get halfway serious here because we have tribe members we have to induct, and that's always a serious moment because, one, we love our tribe members dearly. They are amazing. They are everything to us. I talk to half a dozen of them every week. And they are crucial to the survival of the Poor Man's Fanball Podcast because these are our Twippy votes, guys. except for Daniel Donald Glenno says are we still voting on tribe members Glenno for the tribe members who are listening we will take any input about any new tribe members very seriously let's message us tribe members because here's the thing we didn't get a lot of positive feedback or not we didn't get any feedback from you tribe members regarding people that we would like to be in the tribe and we have a long list and we were trying to share that list. It just didn't work out too well. We're still getting asked all the time to be in the tribe. That's the thing. Which is great, but we do want your guys' input because now it's bigger than us. Magic Man, you're killing it today. Magic Man, send us a message with your name because we want to know who you are. Absolutely. You're killing it today, Magic Man. That's what we're looking for. Maybe you're a woman and you just go by Magic Man. That's cool, too. magic pronoun. Whatever. It's fine. Here's the thing. What we want for tribe members, literally, I know we talk about the five... Oh, let's go through it. Let's just do it. Let's do it. Let's get crazy here. Let's go into our poor man's tribe members. Stephen Silver, wait. We're supposed to vote for you in the Twiffies? Fuck you, Stephen Silver. Yeah, I voted for you, Steven. Yeah. I voted for your Skittles. Thank you, sir. May I have another? Poor Man's Pinball Tribe. Thank you, sir. May I have another? Poor Man's Pinball Tribe. Thank you, sir. May I have another? Poor Man's Pinball Tribe. Wait, no! Yeah! Alright, so, tribe members be damned. We love them all to death, right? We have some serious tribe members. These are our hardcore fans that contribute, and they make this not such a podcast, but a community. Right, Drew? Tim Lee truly has become one of my best pinball friends. Yes. Along with Jeremy Schmitz and Rachel Lilge. So those are three of our 42 tribe members? Yes. So. Yeah. So, yeah, the short answer is yes. So I want to be candid here. I want to just let it be. Tim Lee, don't. You still got to send me your dick pic, otherwise you're going to get off that list. Weird. I want to be candid for a little bit. Drew doesn't understand where I'm going with this, but I want to talk about the tribe members and what they mean to us as a podcast. I didn't verify these statements. When we first started this, we had our five pillars of excellence, right? Which was kind of a joke, right? It started off as a joke. You know, we weren't super serious about the five pillars. So our five pillars of excellence where... Magic Man keeps saying, check your phone. Better check your phone, Ian. Okay. My phone is on... I go to bed at 930. My freaking thing is a thing. You put it in all caps. Oh, fucking A. God damn it, Magic Man. So here's the thing. Here's the thing, you assholes. Magic Man, we'll get to you in a second. Welcome to the show, Magic Man. Sorry, Magic Man threw me all off. All right. So here's what's amazing about the tribe and the five pillars of excellence. All right. So the five pillars, let's go through them. Yes, I know. He just Venmo'd us $100. All the tribe members need to do that. One, you know, like us on Facebook. Two, you know, help promote our show. So three, what was three? Help us grow our podcast. I think I said that, but that's fine. And then number four was secret, and number five was secret, right? Number four turned out to be, you know, you can't be a media member. Well, that was serious for a while because we didn't want, you know, like we became friends with Zach and stuff, which we love Zach. And Ken Cromwell and Bill. Yeah, so don't misunderstand. But we didn't want this to be calm about them. Yeah, no. We wanted this to be about the listeners, and it's nothing against them. We love them. Yeah. But it's more about the listener base, and we were just like that. So of all the ones that's like promoting the Poor Man's Podcast, not for our sake, but for the sake of, I'll give a great example. I forgot about this in Poor Man's Pinball News because we got a little off the rails today, just a little bit. We veered slightly to the right. I went to a pinball tournament at a friend's house last weekend. And there's a gentleman, we talked about him a week or two ago. Him and his girlfriend met us at Blackbird, and they're fans of the show. And, platypus. And he had, Brandon, I'll call him out, Brandon P., he happened to be at the tournament. And he said, oh, hey, Drew, I was listening to you on the way here. And I was like, oh, that's great. And then, you know, we had a ton of fun at the tournament. And then when I was leaving, he walked me out and he told me, you know, once again, he was listening to us. And he's just this genuine dude who just really enjoys what we do. Yeah. And he's really excited. So, you know, he's on the short list for the tribe. Don't get too excited yet, Brandon. You're not there yet. Not here. But it's just an example of, you know, he tells everyone about us, and he just enjoys the show, and he's a really cool dude. And his wife or, I'm sorry, girlfriend listens to us. Is it a wife? Wife. Okay. They're a beautiful couple. Yeah, they're awesome. So that's just an example of what we're looking for. People that are excited about our show. I don't care who you are. I don't care where you're from. I don't care any of that stuff. Are you cool if I let go of the fifth pillar finally? Do it. All right, the fifth pillar actually wasn't a fifth pillar at all. It was just literally if we liked you or not. It was that. Like, no, if you were cool, we were going to let you in. You know, there's no fifth pillar. There's just, the pillar was if you were an asshole, we just weren't going to let you in, period. And we didn't come across anybody that didn't hit the fifth pillar. Like, everyone was super cool. So we never actually used the fifth pillar. That was just an emergency situation where somebody hit all four pillars. This is breaking news, guys, because now we actually have the fifth pillar. There's no fifth pillar. No, he's right. Well, we were worried that there were going to be some people that, you know. Hit the guidelines, but hit the mark. Because you look up inside, you look at other places, and we've always said this. It's kind of bizarre. We haven't gotten a lot of flack. We haven't gotten a lot of pushback. There's very little hate mail in our inbox. Yeah, we had – Nobody takes us for years. Well, there's that. There's that. But, you know, I know – I'll call them out by name because they know. It's that guys like Zach and Kaneda, they get both sides. They get a lot of love. They get a lot of hate. Yeah. Zach talks about it. He's like, a lot of people on Pennside, they slam them. Yep. You know, Kaneda, a lot of people obviously slam Kaneda. No. You know, guys like – Not our boy Craig. Guys like Franchi. You know, there's all these polarizing characters in pinball. We don't really have that. We don't. We don't have that. So we're grateful for that because that makes our job easier. Yeah, thanks, guys. So there's no real fifth pillar, guys. So why am I saying this? Because I think we're going to do kind of a reversal here, guys. Anybody who wants to be part of the tribe, as long as you are active. Rinal highlighted, don't be a dick. Yeah, don't be a dick. That's exactly right. And if you want to be part of the tribe and maybe are a bit shy and maybe the pillars turns you off, just shoot us one email. That's all we're asking. Because we have a lot of people that want to be in, but then we never hear from them. And we would like to get solid just feedback and participation from our tribe members. And I don't think that's too much to ask, right, Joe? No, not at all. And like I said, there's – And it's not like you have to be on every show and be on the message board. But I'm saying, like, we need to know that what we're doing is worthwhile, and we want to make sure that when we accept you into our little family, our tribe, there's a lot more than just being a tribe member. You know, once you're in, you'll see. And if you listen to the tribe podcast by Tim and Rachel, maybe you'll understand a little bit more that it's just more than just, oh, you're a tribe member and that's it. I mean, we have coins. We have special discounts for you on pinball machines. We have a lot going on on our behind the scenes that you're not aware of, and that's okay, but we want to write people in. Guys, that's not a pillar. You've got to spend in $100 a month. That's just dues. That's just tribe members. Well, that is also part of it. The dues, the dick pics, we need lots of those. One dick pic and $100 a month. I mean, I'm not having a good Monday unless I see at least three penis pics. And one of them can't be mine. And I'm sick of Drew's penis, so fucking kidding, guys. Settle down. Anyway, so that's where we're going with. All right? So we're good? We're good. We're good. Moving on. I still have a dry cough. Can you believe that shit? Three weeks later, right? Hold on, let me get a sip of alcohol. It's like Christopher Wayne. All right, here we go. We have a first, a four-man spinball first. This is a first. All right, we have two tribe members. We're actually going to induct them. As I know people have said in the past, we have had two tribe members in one show. But this is actually a couple. We have a couple. This is exciting. They're a cute couple, by the way. They're so fucking great on our Poor Man's Pinball Podcast fan page. And you will know them once we introduce them. The male component of this couple has probably been, he's been around since the beginning. A long time. He's been messaging us, and he comments on almost everything we post. Like this guy, this guy might have more comments than the rest of you guys, so you guys better step up your game. Truly. We dropped the ball. We did. We did. He should have been probably tribe member number 15. Then, fortunately, we found out his wife. She's really into pinballs. She was super cool. Yeah, she's been posting on the page. And she loves the mods of her creature from the Black Swan that her husband has given her as a present I like how can we Yeah this whole thing We can neglect both of them We one or the other And it really exciting that we get to do this because like I said we not going to you know if you don like pinball I know we not always about pinball but it's just really cool that she's into pinball just as she is. And all you tribe members that have wives that are into pinball, fuck you, man. Have her message us a little bit more, all right? Tim Lee, I'm talking to you. I love you, Ann, but come on. Hey, Mr. Dan talks to me. All right, here we go. The new tribe members are... The Rodders. Jasper, a.k.a. I fucking found out his name is actually Chuck. I just learned that today. Yeah, I did too. His name on Facebook is Jasper. Jasper Rodders. He posts as Jasper. Who posts as a fucking dog? Really, Jasper? Well, Madison, his wife, messaged me like, just so you know, his name is actually Chuck. Jasper's dog's name. Jasper, you belong in the tribe. What are you, Indiana Jones? Indiana was the dog's name. Here we are, and we're inducting a dog and Madison. Yes. I'm joking, Chuck. I'm joking. So his name is actually Chuck. I told Madison I wasn't going to let him in because I really wanted a Jasper in the tribe. Well, and because of all the messages, I'm still going to call him Jasper. I was 100% Jasper. When I meet him in real life, I'll be like, what's up, Jasper? He's like, my name is Chuck. I'm like, fuck you, Chuck. Yeah, Jasper it is. Jasper could be so goddamn silly. Let's do some cheese slices for Jasper. Yes, I love it. I freaking love it. So, tell us your tales of the rotters here. You guys can speak to it. I asked them how they got into pinball, and apparently Chuck or Jasper, shortly after buying their first house, they picked up a broken demolition man on a whim. Jester wanted to try and fix it. He was one of those guys who was like, fuck, it is broken. I think I can get it to work. So I'm going to get into pinball and figure it out. So he buys the demo, man, gets it in his house. First thing he did was shorted it out by messing around underneath the play field with the power on. And then she said, I told you so. Power off. All right. But he did get it working eventually, and that's what started the bug, man. He got into it. So current lineup is pretty goddamn good. He still has that demolition, man. He's got a Johnny Mnemonic. He's got a Creature from Black Lagoon, which we talked about. And now what's amazing with Madison and Jasper, Madison seems to be the Creature fan. And Jasper's the one that buys mods for his wife, which is adorable. That is very cool. That's so fucking cool. Can you imagine buying your wife a pinball present? Yeah, a pinball mod. He got her the Mike D mod, if I'm not mistaken, and the taillight mod. I love my wife, but she'd be like, what the fuck is this? More dolls, you idiot. What are you doing? What are you spending your money on? So I thought that was super adorable. Not only that, but when I was posting about the creature and how the taillight mod was such a pain in the ass, he was the only one who was like, dude, it totally is. which makes me think that he must love his wife incredible amounts because that taillight mod was the worst mod to ever do on your creature. And he did it for his wife. I was doing it for me, and even I was like, what the fuck am I doing right now? So I thought that was super amazing. Let's see. Let's go and do it. T2, Terminator 2, classic. Hot Wheels, classic. It's such a good game, guys. If you have not played a Hot Wheels, please go and find your local Hot Wheels place. Royal Rumble. If you have not played a Data East Royal Rumble, do yourself a favor. Yeah. Try it. Royal Rumble and Attack from Mars was their newest game. I know. I'm so jealous. Yeah, in the Rotter household. Attack from Mars. And you know what? The whole community and the Poor Man's Pinball Podcast fan page just went nuts when they got Attack from Mars. This might sound sexist, but did you ask Madison if she's okay with the weird stuff that's going on in the tribe? Yeah, no, I didn't. Sorry, Madison. I'm going to apologize ahead of time. I think Madison's pretty goddamn cool. So the dream theme for Chuck is It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia. That's actually a good one. I know, that's one of Ian's favorite shows. I love that show. I love the show. Ian, like. I was obsessed with it. Yeah. Obsessed. Obsessed is the word. I really enjoy the show, and I could see that as a pin, but. If you guys listen to this podcast that are It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, fans, you probably have picked up on a lot of my humor that comes from that show. Because I rip off a lot from It's Always Sunny. And then during the pandemic, he worked on Mastering Barbecue. And Jasper, I want to let you know, you're not alone, man. Our buddy next to me, Drew, just got his first smoker the other day. How do you feel about your smoker? Oh, I love it. Yeah? Yeah, we're killing it. Are you diving deep into the smoker world? Yes, yes. It's kind of like, exactly, you dip your toe in it, you start doing some stuff, and then after you have a few successes, you're like, I'm going to try something. It's a whole other world. Yeah, it is. I've been reading books for years. I love barbecuing. For being from Wisconsin, a lot of you guys out in the south are laughing at us right now, but I will say this. Wisconsin's got its own little thing. We got our own little niche, which we love. I will say this, cherry wood. We have a lot of cherry trees in Wisconsin. So you peach tree guys and you mesquite guys and your salt and pepper guys, I get it. I do a salt and pepper rub too, but something about cherry wood. And that's a Wisconsin thing. So, guys, if you have not tried cherry wood, please try cherry wood. So congratulations to the Rotters. let's get a little bit of a round of applause woo get excited people we are doing it Ty says he won't post any dick pics welcome to the tribe yeah welcome to the tribe now we should warn you about basically everyone in here yeah it's not good that is true magic man excited to be here so magic man is fucking Jasper which is bullshit by the way magic man we haven't seen your ass First of all, yeah, that is bullshit. Number two, your comments are amazing. And that's why I was like, fuck you, Magic Man, because I looked at your text and you're like, dude, it's Jasper. I'm like, you prick. And number three, you're a jerk. Because where were you the last 30 num days? Once again, I'm not calling you Chuck, Jasper. Jasper, goddammit. It's like Indiana. So that's the joke, guys. That's the joke. All right, so here we go. Here is the tribe list. Holy shit, 43 strong. Yeah, we put Madison first, ladies first, and then Chuck, you're 43. Madison and Chuck. So you guys can contact number two, MartinListener15. He's got your coins. I think they're what, like $5 or $10? They're not bad. He can get your coins to you. And we'll talk to you about discounts and all that good things that come with the tribe. There's a lot of good stuff. And most importantly, you get part of our secret Facebook group, which is off the hook almost daily. Yes, and it's ridiculous. And then there's a secondary page, which is called Sick Fuckers of the Poor Man's Pinball Tribe, which only a handful of people are involved in because it's ridiculous. And your Twitter handle should probably go on here so I know who the hell you are. Yeah, Magic Man. 8 Day Track. I know, I keep forgetting that's Ari. Is that Ari? See, this is the problem with this. Ari, we love you, man. I know 2Tort and Glenno. I know a couple of the guys in Stephen Silver, obviously, because his name is fucking Stephen Silver. But some of you guys, just put your name on there. Oh, shit. Oh, we were muted. Oh. No audio since applause. When we do the applause. Oh, a while ago. I feel like that was a whole lot of shit. Well, we said welcome to the tribe, Madison and Chuck. Yeah. 42 and 43. 42, 43. ladies first, Madison's 42, Chuck, you're 43. Guess what? Talk to number two, Martin, listener number 15. He has your coins. They're about $5 to $10. I know. We lost three viewers. Oh, God damn it. That's so stupid of us. I don't know. We assume everything's good, but sometimes I press the button and it shuts the mics off. I think Ian just said every tribe member is getting $100. Yep. And every tribe member is paying us $100 a month. That's fine. And the logo's still up. So there we go, guys. That's our tribe list. All right. Sorry about it, but do you audio guys? I've heard all of that. So Magic Man Chuck Rodder, what I was saying was, I'm not going to call you Chuck. I'm calling you Jasper. Just so you know, it's Jasper. All right. Well, cheese is up. Thank you so much, man. I'm so happy that you're here, dude. Cheese and Skittles. Yeah, we appreciate you, man. And, of course, Madison. And I love the contributions you've done to the fan page. So we look forward to some stupid shit over on the poor man's page. And we were talking and we were laughing about Ace 8-Track, which is Ari Jones, and we didn't know that was Ari Jones. Hang on, Todd's on to something. Swappiest show on Twitch. Just needs a hot tub. Yeah, we could do the show in a hot tub. God, I got pissed so bad. I could pee in a hot tub right now. We could do the show for like five hours in a hot tub. God damn it. I feel so stupid because we were really out of roll there. We were. We were using words that made sense. And here we are. The fucking mics weren't even on for Ari. And Ari says, you still don't know I mean. No, Ari, honestly, to this point, I did not know that Ace A-Track was you. We were laughing about it with the mic off. Ari, I know you're here every week. You're amazing, Ari. I know who you are. We love you, Ari. I still did not know that was you.

Sorry. Tangent. If you ever see another podcast that try to drink and try to put on a show without editing, it's very, very difficult. We do it every week because we love you guys. And you are totally worthy of Tomfoolery because it's pinball. It should be fun, right? It should be fun. It's my way to get out of here. Magic Man, our newest tribe member. Seriously, guys, thanks for letting me ride my wife's coattails into the tribe. Oh, Magic Man, give him some cheese slices. I didn't see enough cheese slices, guys, in chat. Let's get some cheese slices out there, please. Please, please, please. One million cheese slices for the Rotters. I am just super excited to have you all here. It is awesome. Oh, man. It just, my desk is so stupid. I know. My hands are so. Guys, almost daily, I think about Expo. Because I know how many people are going to be there.

So it's super exciting because I'm going to be there Thursday night, Friday night, Saturday night. It is going to be awesome. I can't wait. So, yeah, I'm just super excited because I know, I think we counted 20 plus tribe members are going to be there. Yeah. So at least half of you guys. Yeah, we're going to have a tribe meetup. It's a whole thing. We're very excited about our tribe meetup. Let's give a shout-out. Where are the ladders located? They're located in your computer. No, they're in St. Louis. St. Louis. Oh, Ari, there you go. Yeah, St. Louis. Isn't Ari in St. Louis? I believe. Kansas City. No. Kansas City. Joseph Hood's in Kansas City, Missouri. They're close. They're very close. So I know Josh Mudd is in St. Louis. St. Louis. Yeah. Yeah. Josh Mudd Country says Glenno. Josh Mudd is close. Yep, Kansas City says Ari. See, I knew that. I always got that wrong. Joseph Hood would always get offended when I said Missouri. He's like, I'm in Kansas City. I'm like, all right, Joey Hood. And I'd call him Joseph, and he'd hate that, too. Let's do a little message from our sponsors. Okay. And then I'll be right back, okay? I just got to get something to wipe this down because I am dying here. I am so sticky. This shit is sticky as fuck. Sambuca? Sambuca is sticky, dude. plus it is really brought to you by the sponsors because you know Zach pays us so much now we haven't gotten shit from Zach in so long it only sold like 10 games this year it only made like 4 grand shut up my mics are alive alright guys Ladies and gentlemen, we are back. All right. Thank you, Zach and Nicole. We always have hot mics, you know. Yeah, hot mics, hot mic, hot mic. It's all right. We're good to go. All right. So, gentlemen, ladies and gentlemen, here we go. Drew, what do you want to talk about now? Happy hour? Happy hour. I think it's always been a fucking happy hour. I've been smiling this whole time. It's been a great show, man. Glenn, Zach, get the boys some shit already. It's time for happy hour here at Poor Man's Pinball Podcast, and that can only mean one thing. Time to go look at the insanity that is the viewer's comments. I always told you guys that when you guys listen to the stuff that goes on in between our little shit. It's the best stuff. It is the best stuff. It's the best stuff. I will listen to it, and I'll be giggling the whole time. Listen after the fact. Here's the thing. The audio stuff doesn't get edited anymore. So when you're listening to this in your car and you're laughing and you're like, should they have said that? Probably not. The answer is probably not. But we don't care. We love Zach. Everyone knows we love Zach and Nicole. They're amazing. They're absolutely amazing, and they help us out in the big way. No, we have a great partnership with them. No, it's no secret. They're a sponsor. We have games we sell to tribe members. We make a few bucks. They make a few bucks. That's how life works. It's a beautiful life, man. It's a beautiful life. So, no, nothing weird going on. We're not going to get specifics, but it's fun. Billy, wow, LOL. Hey, come on, Billy. You're not so surprised. And it's no surprise that we lost a bunch of sponsors. What happened to Pinswap? Oh, yeah, Pinswap died. Died a horrible death. Apparently those two guys didn't know what the fuck they were talking about. They thought they could make a million dollars in a day. A million dollars in a day. They gave up. This is Bill. I just gave up after seven months. Cocksucker, whatever that guy's name was. Yeah, I'd actually out him right now. I don't even know his name right now. Mr. McDick Sucker. Dick Sucker. You know what? All right, guys, we don't need to talk about it. We talked about it last week. We talked about it last week. We're good. All right, so what are you going to talk about? Did the pin bar? Yes, it did, Stephen Silver. Yeah, what are we going to talk about today? We've got a happy hour. It's time for a happy hour here at Pullman Pin Bar Podcast. Just to remind you. Time to go look at the insanity that is the viewer's comments. Yeah, I played it again. I created a film about a company that I shut down. This is Glen O. Yep, that's how you do it. So here's the thing. Is there a thing? I love you guys. I'm ready to go. The shot, shot, shot, shot. Hey, you know what? In chat, what's your favorite shot? We'll do it right now if you got it. If we got it in stock, I'll do the shot. I'm driving home. No, I'll do the shot. I'll do the shot. What's your favorite shot, guys? Throw it on the... Let's get crazy. I don't care. I have no life to live right now. I'm on vacation this week. Ian's on vacation. I don't care. I have nothing to do tomorrow. Wild turkey, says Glenn. Remember? I don't have wild turkey. I did a lot of wild turkey when I was, like, in my 20s. Womp. Sorry. Don't have wild turkey. Hey, that Ace 8-tracker, we don't know who he is. Key Lime Rum. Key Lime Rum. Key Lime Rum, he says. That's a whole thing in a bottle? I know Key Lime. Yeah, I wonder if they... They probably do. That's a thing? They make every flavor. Ari, shoot me a message with that shit, because I like Key Lime. Glenno, what's an acid trip? And then Stephen Silver, is there alcohol in that? Brad Quinn and Pixie Six. No, Pixie Six, no. White Rose with Black Sambuca. God damn it. Huh. Pick a normal shot, you assholes. Let's go. Why don't you say Jamo? I'll do a shot of Jamo right now. I'm going to send the expo. Jaeger and root beer. Now, that's what we call the root beer barrel. So, Jaeger. Let's talk about Jaeger and root beer. I have to ask, Jaeger, are you really a Jaeger fan, or is it just because of your name? That's a joke, right? I don't know. So, here's the thing about Jaeger, right? So, our parents grew up with the Jaeger and root beer, which is a root beer barrel shot. shot. Now, us growing up, that's an old school shot. So like from the 70s and 80s, they would do... Root beer barrels. Jaeger and root beer. Okay. And they were fucking delicious. Wow, that sounds good. So good. Now, our generation grew up on the Jaeger shot, which is Jaeger and Red Bull. Jaeger Bomb. Jaeger Bomb. Jaeger Bomb. Jaeger Bomb. Jaeger Bomb. You go to Jaeger Bomb? Now, I don't have any Jaeger here, but I tried the root beer barrel, and it's a fucking killer shot. Wait, I got to stop you right here. Yeah. Even silver Mountain Dew and peanuts? What the fuck? White trash margarita? Okay, go ahead. Sorry, I had to stop for that. That sounds terrible. Scotch neat. Let's end this bitch. I like you, Magic Man. Fucking you, Rotter. So you had the Jager and root beer. It's still good. It sounds good. It's 100% amazing. Sure. It's the best way to have Jaeger. I will never do Jaeger the other way. Now, we did drink that whole bottle of Jaeger when Billy sent it to us. Oh, my God. That was a good episode, guys. Check it out. It was like episode 98. But we had fun in that one. Because you guys killed that bottle, I said. You just wrote that. Yeah. Gone. It was gone. We have a little bit of a tolerance, guys, so you got to send bigger ones. I don't even remember that. I remember opening it. Ian is in the bar is closing but I'm not done yet damn it mode well that's not true 100% I got my best friend here in the bar and last week this is a pinball story last week when we played so we ended the show Drew was feeling good I was feeling great and Drew just fucking nonchalant walks over to my Deadpool just walks over there he doesn't do much. He looks at it, gives it an eye over. He might have rubbed it a little bit. He looked at it very, very deeply. Yeah, with a double rub. Yeah, he touched the buttons. Now, I had never seen him do this so seductively. Magic man, never. I'm always yawning. I stay awake all the time. Seductively. He was very, very intricate with my machine. And I thought it was weird. He gave it a little rub. Now, for those of you who are just joining us, I have a Deadpool pro, and I have a creature, and I have a laser war kind of. So here's the thing. Sort of. Sort of. It needs some work. So the Deadpool, he's touching. He's loving it. After the show last week. And so he decides he's going to, I want him to play Creature because I spent all this money on Creature. What does he do? He starts up a game on Deadpool. and lo and behold, he fucking GC'd it, dude. You had a killer game, man. I got the Max Boot multiball. He put his dick in the little fucking coin slot and it was like it was raining points. I was just knocking. I got the multiball. For those of you listening, he put his dick in my coin slot again. It happened several times. and uh yeah and then you know i get this big score and then i look at ian and i'm like i think that's a gc and he's like no and then yep gc put in your initials gc that's all even gizmo loves it gizmo's like that's so great i'm so good i love the gc on the dead pool all right boys well you know what i do have one more fun little thing we can play and that is oh my goodness we did everything right except for one thing oh what's that i forgot where i put gleno's song all right we have a new gleno song here oh here we go no it's glen no it's under glen's song wasn't it i thought it was hold on sorry guys hang on hang on we're getting there Glenn's song Here we go Alright ready Here we go Glenn's new song Dave Jeff Brenner Tribe member Also on drums Yeah Go figure Here we go With Drew in the background Oh it's not playing the music what's going on here I don't know can they still hear us no are you sure I know I know people are texting us right now what I don't hear anything I'm trying it's like a wave it's weird right let's see here can we do it this way why alright guys sorry it's a WAV file so for whatever reason this isn't like it so let me see if I can do it a different way here guys give me one second um I know you know you always like to make this about me but I'm just trying I'm just trying to make it work no it's loaded up out of my head so So what we need is... What we need is for it to work. Yeah. So let's do this. See if we can do it the old-fashioned way. Audio input capture. Add source. That's cool. Oh, fuck me. That's not going to work. All right. Maybe I can just play it randomly. No. This is the worst. Glenn, why did you give me a WAV file? Ah, hold on, hold on. Damn it, Glenn-o. Glenn-o, you did all that work, and it's a WAV. Like, what is this, 1992? I told you we couldn't use a WAV file. 1992 called, and they want their WAV file back. Hold on. You and such a baby. Well, you make me look like a bad guy, Glenn. He cries about everything. Glenn, you make me look like a bad guy. He even did, like, Drew's little sexy pose there. Glenn's song. Yeah, Glenn's song. Here it is. This is so great. It's a waste. Welcome to the tribe, Jasper. This is what you have to look forward to. Oh, man. I really want to listen to it. So, guys, you know, here's the thing. I'm going to play it, and the audio guys are going to hear it. Okay, but the guys that are actually stay tuned, they're not. Wait. I hear something. That's it. They wish they never met you, but something had to change. They didn't. What they thought was immoral just had to be rearranged. They thought that you grew up out of laws made for dollar bills. For most part, they're right, but this sharp shooter has the skills. That's why I say, Roger, nice job What a good shot, man That's why I say, Roger, nice job The future is in your hands Hey, Rog He has to plunge Hey, Rog Right now You're gonna get your shot Now that church is gone And the courthouse is cleared Ten heads can gather With our Korra and no fear You fight because you were right But how could you be wrong?

Good job. I hit it. It didn't play. I hit it again. It didn't play. More importantly. I tried multiple times. Glenn and Dave, that was spectacular. Glenn fucking. It's a parody of Filthy Nice Shot. Talk about. And they sent. There's an accompanying YouTube video. So Glenn. Glenn shared it on our page. Yeah. Where it's just going through pictures of Roger Sharp. So it's very cool. It's way better than looking at Sexy Drew. I mean, there's not much better than looking at Sexy Drew. Just a few things. So, Glenn, great job once again. Dave Jeff Brenner, thanks for accompanying him on those drums. Man, so many talented people in the tribe. Glenn, just another reminder how untalented I am. Right? Right? That's how we feel.
