Good evening. Oh my God. Oh, Isaiah, I look so old compared to you. Hi.

1:31
Iron Fox, what's up? Iron Fox? Don't love Iron Fox that much. It's all right. We'll talk. It's weird.
1:47
There's Ping. Ping Bot likes me. Yes. Let's not talk about Ping Bot right now. Um, it's the hat. You look like Thurston Howell III. Do you know, Isaiah, do you know who Thurston Howell, okay. Zero clue. It is the age. It is the age. Um, oh, is the claw machine behind us? Oh, yeah, that thing.
2:11
We'll try to pull out a pickle rig for y'all. That freaking thing. Uh, let's see. Grammy's here. Okay, we're ready. Ha ha. I'm old as fuck.
Jordanperson
2:26
We're going to play foo. I don't think we need to go into any more of that. But Isaiah has more tips. More tips. For me, he just mentioned what the actual stand-up drop targets. Not stand-ups. Drop targets. So a drop target is a target that goes bloop. A stand-up doesn't go anywhere. Drop targets are huge in this game because they can help you get through modes.
2:50
All right. So you and I, what we want to do is we want to get to at least Austin or D.C. Yeah, we can do that. We can do that. All right. Here we go. Bring it up, baby. Stern it up. Stern time, boyos. Stern it up. I think I just invented a word. Stern it up. And we just got the new code on this, so we have all the songs. Thanks to Isaiah for saying, dude, your code is at 9-6. And I was like, no, it's not.
3:20
Yes, it is. It's at 9-6. All right. Now that everyone's here, let's get in the van. Here we are. All right, smartass, you go first. All right, I'll go first. What's up, Till? Yes, we got all the songs now. So you think it'd stop here, but no, it does not. It switches on over. What up, Till? What up, Chris? How you doing, buddy? 16 songs, I believe. I'm going to shout you out when we get more people in, all right? So I'm going to try to hit that stand-up speaker mod.
3:52
Not stand-up, drop target. So the engine gives you more time The middle one, the speaker, gives you more points And then the right one, the missiles Gives you more Or spot shots And so it matters It doesn't matter which one you hit at the start It matters which one's highlighted Exactly, it's like Walking Dead Nice Look at him So that just upgraded my speaker to level one Cover all the pictures of Dave Grohl With Darby Crash and make it germ-files.
4:26
Your hand cramped up from writing... Well, I thought you were going to say tilt. I thought you were going to say your hand cramped up from playing pinball, but I wish it was playing pinball.
4:44
And we did have a conversation about this last week, but yeah, there's no in-lane rubbers. It doesn't ship with them. It ships with them, but not on. It ships with them in the box. Yes, yes. So they're there. Just not for you to use. The serving suggestion is for you not to use them.
5:07
So I'm going to just try to get my... My embalmer going on. There we go. Yeah, Chris, stay healthy, man. We need you. Stay healthy, Chris. We need you, baby. But we're upgrading the... And I believe the drop target upgrades are set after each city you visit, each mode. Okay, they're reset, okay.
5:30
All right, you go your way, I'm going to go my way. I'm just going to try to get in that van as fast as I can.
5:39
Oh, God. My hero. Oh, don't leave. Oh, weird. The Area 51 cam is live you guys so if you want to watch, oh that's not cool.
6:07
If you want to watch what's going on in Area 51 I think we got the cam ready. There it is, the backhand.
6:14
Which one do you go first, New Orleans? Let's do New Orleans because I got to warm up. They also fixed the voice on this with a new code update. Prior to you... It was like unrecognizable with how quiet it is. Because it's a guest DJ for the New Orleans call out.
6:33
I never knew that. Dude knows everything about pinball. I need him on stream. I know Foo Fighters and Godzilla. Foozilla!
6:45
Chris! Oh, I almost got Chris! I almost got Chris. Yes, New Orleans is you hit one shot and then you hit it again.
6:52
I almost got Chris. I mean, not you, Chris. Not Tilt Chris, but the Chris that's in the band. There he is.
7:05
Chris! Got him. Yeah! Uh-oh. Damn it. Right down the middle. I said uh-oh like three minutes before that train. He's all into the future. I just wanted to finish the freaking load. The future. Now I got to get back in the... The future? The future. Now I got to get back in the truck. I got to try to upgrade my van.
7:31
I see. There it is. That is impressive. As long as you don't tilt doing that. That scares me. And then once they're all dropped, you can bash it to upgrade them.
7:45
There's a time limit on that Yeah, everyone out after... and then reset, yeah. Oh good, you got your Overlord back. Yeah, that should be something from going into the Overlord. Into the Overlord. Just an unreal shot. I don't know if the skill shots reset during this. I think they do. It's a new plunge, it's a new plunge. Not too hard. Whenever they let you plunge again, that means you get skill shot again. No, that should be a ball save, yeah. That is a skill shot though. Is it? Yeah, going into the outline. Okay.
8:18
Alright, I got upgrades. Now I just got to get up there. There we go. We got a game, baby. We got a game. I am also a New Orleans head. See?
8:36
Alright. Let me see. Terry, if you're still here We're just going to run those up Okay, yeah Run those up Terry, if you're still here We're doing a special episode this Friday Tomorrow We're doing four episodes of classic sitcoms That had very special episodes in them I think this is the third time we're doing very special episodes So if you can stick around and stay awake I think it'll be fun.
9:11
Alright, here we go. I gotta get back in the van. Oh, crap. I hate when it does that. Skill shot! No!
9:21
That was fun. Nope, nope, nope. Let's get that van then. How does it spell van again yet? Son of a gun.
9:41
I'm not hitting anything, bro. There we go. One, two, three. Let's upgrade. This game also gives out extra balls like crazy.
9:51
Yeah, it gives out a few. You can have a five ball game. It's not too hard. Oh, no. Good slapstick. Wow.
10:04
Sometimes that target there just drives me nuts because it's so random. The one on the... The little kickback? Yeah. It's supposed to help you, but ours is inspiring hard enough. Yeah. Sitcoms again. What you say? Hoping for 2D's bump.
10:19
Grammy. 2D. We have a Facts of Life episode, but... Shit. But it's not that one. Oh, that's one way to get in. We have a Facts of the Lights episode, but I didn't pick the 2D Zvong one because that's just one moment in a long episode of not 2D moments.
10:51
So... He counted that over and over again. Yeah. Finish. Put a little form, Bill. That overdrive shot is so funny. Are we going to show that save replay?
11:46
Show that slap save? Oh, hell yeah. Did I do something good or was it bad? It was good. Okay, let's go. Good.
11:56
Oh, what? Into the mode. Ball three. Ball three Everlong. You have to. Moments of 2D not buying bongs.
12:13
Yeah, there's too many moments of 2D not buying bongs. Plus, Remy. That was one of those. What? record the last.
12:25
That was one of those episodes of Facts of Life that had like, that was season one Facts of Life. Too many girls.
12:34
No one has ever said that before, but too many girls. Too much Facts of Life there. And then they got it down to, that's a problem with TV in general. Then they got it down to just the four girls and then the show kind of hit its stride. I don't blame them. There were too many girls to write for, right? There's like 17 girls in the show. They're like, nah, we're not writing for all those.
12:58
Writers, like, forget it. Set up with your backhand. Yeah, that's... Don't go out like I did. At least that way I can keep upgrading them up. Yeah, you keep upgrading them, man. Bounce. Ooh, that was a dead pass. Right to the left.
13:18
I just want to get in there. Nope. Son of a gun. Should have double flipped. At least... Oh! We're learning. I forgot, Grummy, that Molly Ringwald was in freaking Facts of Life Season 1. Are we going to show my save now? Yeah, let's do it. A fair trade. Save for save. Well, it's a Laz, not a save. That's a Laz, right?
13:42
Whatever. Boom. Don't you love that? Pooh's so good. Who is just so fun to flip? Yeah, it's a super fun game.
13:58
Really? Oh good, that was a ball save. So here's what I'm gonna do. That's not what I wanted to do, but... I really want it on the other flipper. So we're gonna post pass.
14:14
Then we're gonna go right in. With the hips! No, no, no, no. That's what's called freaking... That's what's called freaking trust. Trust the process.
14:31
My second one is normally New York. I'm going to go Seattle. Seattle's a good one. But I want to see if I can start my Overlord.
14:42
If you do two modes, you light extra ball. Right? I think just hitting the bots Lights extra ball I'm not too sure It's on mode Shit After 2 is Austin or Desirous And after 3 I think it's after 2 I don't know I don't remember But we'll find out Okay so I gotta go From right to left on the game and I'm not doing that very well. Area 51 or that back loop. That right loop.
15:30
I'm doing nothing. You could also use your smart missiles. Or not smart missiles, whatever they call them. Yeah, I'm just using them all. Because I'm on ball three. Don't worry Where am I? I'm over there now. Ugh!
15:48
That's doing nothing for me. There we go. Come on. You're out of it. Replay. Where am I? Am I out? Yeah, you gotta get back in. Now you're... I ran out of time?
16:20
I ran out of time? Yeah, but your extra ball is ready. Alright. And you gotta spell ban again. And the replay video is Jack Danger wanted to put a lot of fake birds in this joke that birds aren't real. Damn it.
16:39
I don't know anything about the jokes that birds aren't real. It's a weird subsect of the Internet that wants to say that all birds are robots. UFO fun chapter. Nice. There we are. We're up there. All right, wow. That must be something new.
17:04
That doesn't even sound like it's funny. It sounds like it's just a weird thing that they just made up.
17:15
It that the government created birds to be cameras to spy on people Right I also agree that it not that funny I just putting in some knowledge
17:30
I've lost... I've lost everything. Yeah, it's gone. The stream? Yeah. Just hit zero, yeah. Wait, I'm gonna try something.
17:49
Well, that sucks. Yes. I'm going to stop streaming. Everyone's starting it. Wait, wait, wait. No, no.
18:02
I think it's on Twitch's side. Fake Birds is a Reagan-era joke conspiracy that they're spy drones. Ever? Never. Check the... Yeah, I'll check the screen. Am I still here, kids? Are we still here? No? We're live?
18:25

18:37
BirdsAren'tReal.com. All right, fine. All right, I'm going to go for the skill shot. There's a few different skill shots. I know. I almost made the one that you love.
18:53
You got the in-lane. There's an in-lane skill shot, an out-lane skill shot, a speaker skill shot, amp skill shot, drop target skill shot, and then the high-five skill shot.
19:10
Okay, that was a ball save. We're going to ball save. And I think they added an overlord skill shot in one of the new updates.
19:19
Same thing. Hi, Mima. Mima is a birdologist and says that birds are actually dinosaurs. Probably. I can see that.
19:35
I'm not going to... If Mima says it's true, that was the dumbest thing I've ever heard in my life. Everything you... Everything blah blah is dumber than... I don't remember the quote. that this idea is making him dumber by the second. He's lost the capacity to speak. He just ended.
20:06

You say those? Woo! We rocked that one up Two shots spotted A million per shot Plus a million I think What's up, everything? There's definitely at least one thing about G.G. Allen that one could base a pinball mode on. All right.
29:26
Hollywood. Wait, there's something that's not running. What's not running? Ooh, Hollywood, hold that card. I knew that was something.
29:39
I knew there was something up. Sammy is not connected to Token. Oh, that was close. Get me off these slings.
29:50
Yes, sir. There it is. Now if I can get off the slings again. We'll take it. We'll take the side loop.
30:06
Sorry about that, Grimmy. A little 27 mil. Let me see something. Bootleg Bart. This is weird. Okay, I'm going to restart Sammy then.

30:37
Flaw. My hero. Let's see if everybody can get their sounds again. Solo game activated. Loft game mode activated.
30:53
Here we go. Hey, Hollywood, ask me about lunch again. I've never seen that happen before Where it's like online but not online That's happened Hollywood Poma would like to know What you put in your mouth recently What did I have for lunch? What did you have for lunch?
31:26
I had Pizza Ooh, it was yummy. Pizza with spinach, tomatoes, and balsamic vinegar. It was actually quite good.
31:37
It was very good. Now ask me my college lunch today. What did you have? You have to tell us. I had microwavable mac and cheese with a packet of the cheese that I put on it. And since I was in a hurry, I went to my car to get a plastic fork I had. and I ate it in my car while driving over here.
32:01
That was my good old my college in-between classes pinball lunch. Who else wants to cry? We'll make it out of it. We'll make it out one day.
32:15
We'll make it out one day. Damn it. Hollywood says ramen is better. I was thinking about having ramen but that takes prep time which I don't have. I'm a busy man. Should have had pizza.
32:32
Yeah, the wizard mode of driving and eating. It's actually a mini wizard mode because in San Francisco, when you're out of light, you get seven minutes where you sit at a red light to eat your mac and cheese and think about your decisions.
32:45
Which decisions led you here? Ah, you ran. And we're back into the multiball by accident. Yeah, driving in San Francisco is like... is a wizard mode on itself.
33:09
Alright. I kind of don't want to be in this multiblock, sadly. I don't like to drive in San Francisco.
33:20
I don't like to drive, period. That's known. If you know me, you know I don't like to drive. I have to drive. In fact, I got to go to the DMV on Monday to get my license renewed, which to me is more fun than actually driving.
33:37
But yeah, San Francisco. But you know what? I would drive in San Francisco way before I would try and drive in New York. I don't think I'm ever going to try and drive in New York. That's where I'm from. You're from New York? Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's my hometown. Your extra ball is lit. It is. Whoa. New York is just... TMP is awesome!
34:00
We love it. There it is. Extra ball into the mode. I'm not done with New Orleans. Said nobody ever. Whatever. New York driving?
34:14
Nope. I'm not. I'm never ever driving in my entire life to New York. My hometown? No. I like take taxis or Lyft or whatever in New York. And it's just like that Seinfeld routine where you sit there and you look out the window and you go, Wow, that looks dangerous.
34:37
It's like you're watching television in a cab in New York. Bird it not real It a robot New York Speaking of we going to break break out folks We gonna break out of our cars when we San Francisco driving is fine until you end up behind someone afraid of you.
35:00
Oh yeah, San Francisco driving is so fun when someone decides to stop in the middle of the road and just put their hazards on.
35:09
Because they don't know what's going on, so they're like, yeah, this is a parking spot. We're saving that That was a very strange noise I made there We'll take that wherever it is We'll take it Yeah if they give them to you use them I agree I like that spinner shot though I want to get that We're okay That spinner is just begging you to hit it Oh false head There.

Wow, Isaiah's destroying me in his name. If I can get off that spinner, though, that'd be nice. The one shot I'm not allowed to hit anymore is the spinner.
37:23
And that too, I suppose. Can I do this to you? You can do it. You can hit me with the Simpson. Wait for it, wait for it Did you see me walk over and go Yeah, we're gonna have to see that one again He's beating me, I gotta do something

39:11
Which I think I'm almost at. If I can get off that spinner shot, that would be nice. Wait, I got to hit him again because I hit him once? Yeah. It counts as a shot. There it is. It's not that bad of a shot.
39:28
That one's kind of a face. Yeah, this one. You could also use your pistol on him. I could. But I don't want to. He's feeling it. He's feeling it, folks.
39:53
Don't mess with the two-toots. Two-toots bomb. Oh, what bad flips. Go. Oh, no. No. I didn't mean to do that. All right. I should have used my missile.
40:12
I'm going to use my missile because that shot is being a jerk. I don't have a missile. You just used it, yeah. Oh, I did? Yeah.
40:22
It's not going up that ramp. I know. I'm okay. So you get more missiles by hitting that captive ball in the back. The time it spins around adds to it. There's that. I should have staged. No! Where am I now? Am I done? Done with that one. Gotta get back into the mode of my spelling fan.

54:36
And I'm headed out. I'm going to go home and play my weird owl. What's up, Six? Six, this last game is for you.
54:48
This one game is for you. Yeah, I got my P3 two days ago. It's in the murder garage. It plays terrific.
54:58
I actually have a couple of things to say about P3. Here's the thing. I'm not an ambassador for P3 and I refuse to be. I'm not trying to sell anybody a game that they don't want. P3 gets a lot of crap. But I kind of figured out, I kind of figured out the audience, who the audience is a P3 for, right? If you're a person who doesn't like to tinker, If you're a person who just wants to play pinball and not tinker, you want to pull it out of a box,
55:38
set it up, maybe adjust a tilt. That's it. P3 is not for you. It's not for you. That's it. If you got like Tons of cash And you just want to buy games and play games and have fun There's nothing wrong with that Absolutely nothing wrong with that But I don't have a ton of cash I had enough to buy a P3 But I don't have a ton of cash I got two kids at home I got space for one game One game And that game is going to be a modular P3 system. Remember, I'm the guy who built, I built my virtual cab.
56:33
I built my cab. So I'm obviously a tinkerer. In sports, we know this, the Jazz and Overlord Festival.
56:48
I think I got one shot I couldn't get. It's all about managing... Exactly. It's all about managing expectations. So when I set my P3 up, right? I got it. I bought it used, actually, from a guy who barely played it. It's like 50 plays on it. It was a weird-al limited edition.
57:10
When I took it out of the box, right? Me and my buddy took it out of the box. It played like crap. It played like a game that basically just came out of the box. I watched one shit I might do two games I watched one video that Jerry and TJ did over at Multimorphic and it was a long video it was like an hour and change I only got Weird Al right now six only got Weird Al it was a long video I watched that one video I fixed all the issues on the game in 30 minutes it shoots like a freaking dream now It shoots like a dream.
57:50
It's not for you if you have lots of games and you just want to play. That's all you want to do is just play and you have lots of games and you're done.
58:08
I got to hit it again? Oh, there we go. Where is that shot, Los? Where is that freaking right ramp, man?
58:25
I can't find it today. Some days I can find it, man. I'm just not finding it, man. It's elusive, baby.
58:42
Let's get some dangerous van upgrades. Get some dangerous van upgrades. Would you say a P3 would be a good first game? No, absolutely not. I would not.
59:04
Unless you built a virtual pinball machine and you're into the mindset of tinkering. Right? Every time I want to play a new virtual pinball game, I have to go through. You have to download it. You have to install it. You have to make sure you have the backlash. You have to make sure you have the ROM or if it's a ROM or not. You have to load it up. You have to set your point of view if you do. You have to do this. That's like already seven steps that I'm doing to just play one virtual pinball game. So that's normal to me. If that's not normal to you, no. First pinball game, here's what I would do. If it was your first pinball game, shoot for something around between $4,500 and maybe $6,000. Buy a game that you love, that's on location, that's used. Don't buy a new one box. Don't buy a game off location. That's what I mean. Go to Pintai. Find somebody selling games. Buy a game.
60:06
Even better, if you can rent a game, rent a game. Even better. If you can rent a game, rent a game. You know, so...
60:20
I would not recommend a P... Not that I'm... No, I'm not trying to poop on P3, but... I wouldn't recommend it as a first game, only because...
60:29
You're getting... I feel like you're getting too... You might be getting into stuff that you're not familiar with.
60:41
That being said, it's an incredibly... First was Silver Slugger and loved it. I like the tweaking. Yeah.
60:48
That being said, it's incredibly easy to wrap your head around what they did with P3. Shit. It's incredibly easy to wrap your head around P3 if you just give it a moment. It's not hard. It's really not.
61:17
I'll have more things to say about P3 tomorrow on Friday at the Drift Theater. For a super beginner, what era type of game would you recommend first? like I love EMs but they require a lot of maintenance and upkeep hey what's up Rhyme I would say for a beginner I would say a DMD era
61:57
I would say a DMD era. You know, like a Williams DMD. Something with a dot matrix display. Actual dot matrix display. Unless you absolutely love EMs. A working EM is going to work, generally speaking. But you're not going to fix it. Because those are like magic.
62:16
But the later you get, like 90s era DMD games, you know, they get more advanced in terms of technology. so they're not so far away from what we know and you can find people who can help you fix it and i think a dmd is going to last a little longer in home as far as rule sets um you're not gonna have three rules that you finish in two nights and you're done um something without an insane toy though yeah so like i one of my first games i rented was Junkyard.
62:53
I rented No Good Gophers. I rented Star Trek. The Stern Star Trek. Absolutely wonderful freaking game. I rented Guardians. The Pro. These are absolutely... I know those are Spike 2s, but... Well, I know Guardians is Spike 2, but the other ones are not. That being said, it's just like, you know...
63:19
Yeah, I had the feeling like everything William CMD will be great so especially with the remakes of the FM yeah arcade one up we're talking about we're talking about physical pinball machines though right not virtual pinball machines don't get a godly You can get it, whatever Squalito says get a Venom Get a Venom Pro Don't get a Venom Premium Only because If you're trying to stay away from fixing stuff There's not a lot That can go wrong in a Venom Pro There's a little more that can go wrong in a Venom Premium Get a No Fear and save yourself 7k No Fear is fun It's a Stargate on Pinside. Hmm.
64:18
Yeah, you can get a Stargate if you want. I can see my haunted house. Oh, now you're just trolling me. Now you're... I'm going to go now. We're done.
64:37
Nope. Now you're just trolling me. Stargate Spares are like rocking horses. Yeah, but for my first game, pick something like Metallica. Pick something like Lord of the Rings. Pick something like Get an Easy Shooter. Metallica is an easy shooter. Lord of the Rings, you're not going to get to the end of the rule set, but it's a pretty decent shooter. Right? It's a great shooter. First game, don't get a Jersey Jack, because you don't have 12k. What else do we have here? If you can get a Monster Bash, that'd be cool. I saw Lowe's playing a Lowe's Monster Bash, I forgot how fun that game is. I'm looking down the line I would tell you to get an NBA fast break but you're not going to find it Sopranos would be yeah Sopranos if you have kids turn off the profanity mode but Sopranos would be fun yeah semi-recent start Walking Dead is fun it's creepy if you have kids It's just ugly and creepy, but the rule set is amazing.
66:06
Yeah, we got a fast break in mint condition right here. It's pretty tight. Iron Man 6, brutal. Unless you're looking to get amazingly good at pinball, and you have a lot of patience for brutality.
66:30
Oh, you're a mascot? Oh my god! Wizard? We're gonna leave it at what Wizard said. Wizard Bear just named one of my all-time favorite games. Stern Spider-Man.
66:43
If you could find a Stern Spider-Man, you're welcome. That game kicks ass. You're not gonna find a vault. Maybe you'll find a vault. I'm saying, like, if you can find a vault, great Spider-Man I had Spider-Man for like three months loved every minute of it was great listen, kids, I gotta go thank you so much and if you join me, I went to a place recently that did play it yeah, just try it oh, Spider-Man is so much fun it's so much fun, it's great there's a lot to do. It's fucking fun. All right.
67:34
Hey, Pinbot. I lost my Pinbot. Hey, Pinbot. Nope, I lost her. All right. I'll see you guys tomorrow in the theater. Thanks for joining. Foo Fighters, yay! Play it on location.
67:52
Love you. Bye-bye. Bye, Ping. I'll see you later. See you tomorrow, Ping. You know what's happening tomorrow, Ping, right? Oh, yeah. We're going to have some fun.
