And of course, thank you all for listening. it was it's a great honor whenever somebody says oh i listen to you and it is from my ears on my butt so we got some email had an exciting uh email that we were kind of teasing last week and we saved this is going to be kind of a mini episode i guess in that we are uh we got the invite for stern to attend their media day yes for the almighty kong yes which now there's the trailers just came out today like we we were waiting till the last day because we're leaving tomorrow you know and then we're gonna we're gonna head down to uh elk grove village elk village elk grove village all three words all three words i just say where stern lives and everyone goes oh yeah that's elk pasture grove villa township something and i go thanks and so we're gonna Are we staying? Elk Grove Village. Yes. Sure. Why not? So we're going down. We were really honored to get the invitation and to be actually considered part of Pinball Media. So we will be checking that out. It sounds like it's a full day. You get there at 10. And the itineraries, they do the tour. They meet with the people that made this machine. Now, we did see the... You watched the trailer that released today. Mm-hmm. um looks it looks packed it does there's a spider on it so it's a huge no for me there won't be a king kong in our basement maybe we'll take we can take the spider out we can put something else in place i'll get that place to send us another wet uh oh yeah there we go we'll just have this sticky wet gut guillard that we'll just put there instead of spider and he can just be wet for all eternity with his other friend no i mean a spider's not gonna it's okay stop me but I don't like spiders. The more I watched that trailer, the more I was like, wow, this has a lot of stuff in it. The first two times I watched it today, I was at work, so I didn't have the sound on. And then I watched it when I got home, and I was like, does that really gong? Yes, it does. Oh, and I hope it plays Bang-a-Gong every 15th time or something like that. It just starts playing that song. That would be awesome, too. anyway so you know we i i just can't tell you we were very humbled and very uh ecstatic you know craft brew has just started a new job so we had to quickly finagle time time off because you're like oh wait this is like when when is this soonish like two weeks not it wasn't even two weeks but of course it can't like they can't they can't like send something out a month in advance because then it's just going to be non-stop nonsense. They know. They know all about it. So we're excited. We're going to go there and check it out and then we will probably do another show next Wednesday all about the experience. You know, we're staying overnight. Then we're going to get there in the morning. Yeah, we're driving tomorrow. So tomorrow's Wednesday. And then it's on Thursday. day we have a couple days but we'll see what happens when it happens uh we i am hoping to parlay this into uh now we have off in two weeks and i'm gonna try to finagle if we can get a trip down to benton i would love to tour spooky it's the only place we haven't been have you reached out to them yet no not yet well maybe he'll maybe he'll listen to this and he'll he'll initiate it i don't think so he's very busy i'm sure they're all very busy but uh it's for your ears and your But yeah, sure. Why not? So we'll see where that goes. Doesn't matter. Exciting, exciting time in pinball, I guess, because everyone in the world, I think we released a trailer for a pinball machine today, which is weird. I don't know. Everyone else has Why not If you were going to release a pinball machine today what would it be Death Race 2000 baby Okay Either that or I would do a dual release like Spooky and it would either be whatchamacallit Death Race 2000 or it would be, come on, I can't think of it. Speed Racer. Speed Racer. Yeah. We could see who would. Yeah. I have a feeling Speed Racer would sell more. I don't know. It doesn't matter. So I'm going to do a quick recap of what we've seen. Now we have Harry Potter has not been shown, but it's been teased a lot. Yeah. We all know it. Yeah. And it has the. Because that's my dream theme. I know. I know. And then we have Kong from Stern. And then we have Portal from Multimorphic. Is that the. Yeah. The modular one. Yeah. Like the Weird Al. Weird Al. Yep. And so, you know, they're going to have a portal at. I know Dave and Nikki will probably have one at Lumberjacks. Well, they have. I shouldn't. Oh, well, they have the... They'll have the portal, yeah, I'm sure. Because that's a really big IP. That's a huge game, the video game portal. So now, just today, we also had Barrels of Fun released. Dune, they had their trailer like 25 minutes after Kong. And I'm like, eh, okay. So Dune is out there. And then in the corner, just doing their thing is, of course, spooky knocking down evil deads for all the all the spooky heads I don't I'm not going to say who wins we don't do that wins loses anything like that you love Harry Potter I do I wasn't a Kong super fan but I dig it and if it interacts with Godzilla because those two have fought each other now nigh on three times in the film films if those two if the code knows they're and interacts with each other that would be that would be different level that would be awesome i'm not saying it does i don't know if it does but if it does oh my god that's the greatest um i don't i don't know like like now the barrels of fun did labyrinth and i didn't really and i'm not saying i don't like those themes i just don't they don't do anything for me yeah labyrinth was a fun game especially being their first out of the out of the gate that's crazy how good that game was and how it shot really good and then now it's like dune i don't i don't care about dune i know it's a big deal like and i i tried watching the first one did we get it from the library yes yeah i was like well i'm gonna watch this because of the rumors and then we got like it was like eight hours in i'm like i don't know man i don't really i was long done by that you were asleep for like three hours and i i was like five more hours i was like i don't know if i care about these people that much and I looked and I was like oh my god there's still 17 hours left I'm not watching this I just turned it off uh it's it's a good IP I know a lot of people really do like it um I don't know if it's that popular though but I said that about Avatar and isn't that like one of the biggest grossing franchises in history or something I'm really surprised by that what Avatar yeah because I we I watched that movie once and I was like okay I've seen it yeah but now they made the second one yeah and i don't know how that did i don't know how but even even disney put avatar land in at animal kingdom years after yeah the first movie so there must be an undercurrent of really big fans probably i mean like like just because i don't know about something doesn't make it make it right or wrong or anything like does i'm not levying any judgment one way or the other i don't know a lot of stuff so you know so maybe that is like a huge bunch of like people really love it and they get it you know and i'm assuming i'm assuming dune has a following two movies now there's a third one and i did see the dune the dune does eat the ball so 98 of the pinball world will be very excited about that uh i don't know it looked it looked good i i don't know we'll see how it plays you know i didn't actually watch the trailer for that one i guess i should have that's okay sorry we're we're on the kong train for a little while that's all I mean, I actually went back and did a little bit of homework. I watched some videos about the history of King Kong. And I actually went back and looked through that book of Stern just to kind of re-familiarize with some of the stuff you might forget about. Yeah. I love all the pictures of Gary Stern with all these celebrities. I would like to ask him if he remembers any of them that were very funny or really cool or some that were really bad. if I ever get to talk to him again, I might ask him about that because we're seeing him with like Hugh Hefner and Slash and all these people. You're like, oh my God, he's met everybody. This dude's so cool. So that is all. We didn't have a whole lot. Did you have anything else for this? Oh yeah, we have a call out. We got an email. Who do we get an email from? We got an email from Ryan J Yeah From Hollywood Florida Hollywood Yeah Oh wait Florida Yeah Hollywood Florida is probably better than Hollywood California I would think so Honestly. Having been to one and not the Florida one, I'm sure the Florida one's better. Okay, just a quick news flash. Destructo the Cat has taken down Snoop D-O-W-G in box form. Now he's leaving. He's probably leaving because he knows there's going to be gunfire soon. I have a really big cat and he climbed into the Snoop Dogg box and knocked it over. Now he's like, I'm done ruining this. Okay, back to the reality. So Ryan is from Hollywood, Florida. He grew up in Minnesota. He went to one of my favorite breweries that I miss very much. Pabst? No. Yes, Pabst. No, he went to Fungi Buddha. because I talked about Buttercup last week. Nice. And he said he asked two bartenders and neither of them had ever heard of Buttercup. Boo to them. Which makes me sad. So I had to look it up. You were like, was I drunk? Did I make this up? No, I remember it. Like, I can still taste it. Wow. We got it at Willard's Tap House. Okay. Do you remember Willard's Tap House? Yeah. I do remember that one. So they don't remember how, was it like a limited run or something? it seems like it's um it is like a special one like their website still shows it so so apparently those bartenders don't go on the website maybe not i would assume there's a lot of churn at a brewery possibly tap house i don't know so all right and uh but i have not written back to ryan but i'm going to and i'm sorry oh it's okay well you know we all live in a busy world right big shout out thanks for listening yeah and he did say he would he would keep us on on his regular rotation so yes he did and also if you are ever in delray it was a delray beach yeah we're silver ball yeah yeah silver ball what is it museum silver ball museum you should go there that's where i fell in love with the beatles and that's why i fell in love with space invaders but I'm glad I got over that. Right. Anyway. I'm glad we didn't get over the, my love for the Beatles. Cause no. So thanks for the email. And now I think we're going to, are we ready for everyone's favorite? I think we are. Oh, as always, before we go, if you want to sport our look, cause we didn't have to do a shout out. Uh, we are our merch from silver ball swag. If you go to silver ball swag, you can get pinball junk to our merch. our, we have footage of our, uh, shirt being at the grand Canyon. Oh yes. from Lumberjack Dave and Nikki. Yep.

So big shout out to you guys. I think it's time for some. Thanks for the love. Yeah, thanks for the love. And if you want yours to show off wherever wacky place you're going. If you'd like your shirt on a mouse pad. That's going to be up to you, but you have to buy this shirt first. we should have a collection of all the people that put their wives with the junk drawer shirts on a boob mouse pad i think it's gonna be one i honestly i don't i don't think it's gonna be more than one but i could be wrong uh we'll see only time will tell about those my friends so silver ball swag that's it we're gonna drop in everyone's favorite segment craft brew Crab Brew Sally, gonna have to put your journal down. Crab Brew Sally child, you've been to all the breweries around. You've been rolling all over the town. Oh, tell me what to drink until I fall on the ground, yeah. That's right, people. And we're back. We are back. So last week we were talking about the Mount Rushmore of beer. Yes. So we did get several responses. So I thought we would go over them today. Nice. The tribe, I'm assuming, has weighed in. Well, yes. Two of the tribe members. But first, the first email was from Lumberjack Dave with his list. it was Sprecher Triple Abbey next one was Chocolate Coffee Peanut Butter Porter by Copper State wow yeah uh Tiramisu Stout by Boulevard you remember Boulevard yeah of course and then Whiskey Business by Badger State I see what they did there mm and I have to say we went to lumberjack johnny and i got the chocolate coffee peanut butter porter and it was really tasty so you you're our i would yes yeah you concur i concur with that that wouldn't make you rush more though would it maybe it's hard it's hard to bump once you said it right you know i know all right yeah and i'm assuming so then next up i'm assuming our our aussie uh pinball pinball uh tribe members didn't listen otherwise i would have gotten some hate mail about ripping them about fosters i don't know that's gonna be an ongoing goat joke with me so all right go ahead so then up next was the 18 year old virgin skater glenn okay his list is blatz oh wait that's not a beer named what is it oh that's his new title yeah okay for this segment okay 18 year old virgin skater skateboard glenn i can think of like six things wrong with that sentence but keep going well i think he's mostly referring to his list so so first was blatz and then budweiser all right and then this one makes me like shiver when i even say this natural light and then ice house i have drank a lot of ice you have like wow yeah not anymore no but i used to it was because that was your beer of choice it was the only one that had like the higher alcohol yeah so so then so thanks very much 18 year old virgin skater board glenn now i get it i get the joke now that's like gotcha yeah so then the last one that we're going to talk about today is Tim sucks at pinball. Ah, yes. His Mount Rushmore... Which actually, I think he doesn't. I'm pretty sure he's really good. Yeah. But, okay, go ahead. So his Mount Rushmore of beer is four cans of Jenny Cream Ale. Well, that would definitely cut down the cost of making this Rushmore because you're literally just doing the same one. It's like copy-paste. Yeah. You could even just put ditto and an arrow pointing at the first one. Mm-hmm. Okay. Yeah. So I decided to go through my untapped list and I found a couple of cream ales that I could suggest to Tim. Maybe he could think of something else. Expanding Tim's horizons, eh? So I have First Round Pick by Lion's Tail, which he might not be able to get. He might not be able to get a couple of these, but I'm giving you options here. the next one is wisconsinitis by three sheeps did i just drink that last weekend yeah okay carry the g by gathering place pistachio cream ale by indeed all right indeed like the place that has like that hires you no indeed you remember no what am i thinking of it is indeed but it's indeed brewing company oh i think i have a lawsuit coming one way or the other i'm not sure which came first but okay go ahead golden nugget by the brewing project uh mocha vanilla buzz by 903 brewers and these are all cream ales yes okay raspberry daydream by hinterland you know where hinterland is right yeah it sounds like it's a beatles song we're gonna play some raspberry dream now oh and then yoko's in the back hitting a drum with a fish or something all right go ahead now what's outboard by milwaukee brewing company yes castle cream ale by castle danger brewing company and honey blonde by central waters i've had honey blonde too i think yeah so there's some options for you tim sucks at pinball i don't think it's gonna i know but hey well it's nice it's nice that you're giving some options. Yep. All right. I think you got anything else. Are we good to go? I think that's it. That is it. We, we just wanted to drop in a quick one, let you guys know we will be hitting up stern in the next couple of days for the media days for Kong Kong and King Kong. And we will be doing another show featuring only, not only that, but mostly that. And maybe a new brewery and probably a new brewery. Cause if I'm driving somewhere, we're stopping somewhere. Good. Alright, thanks for listening everyone. We'll see you next time with more sternlicious congitude. Those are things, right? Yes. Great. Sure. That's it, man. Game over, man. Game over.
