Oh yeah, it's time. You've waited a week or more, and now it's finally here. The time has come for the sloppiest show on the internet. This week's episode of Poor Man's Pinball Podcast. Starring Drew and Ian. That's it, man. Game over, man. Game over. I'm gonna need someone to help me. I'm gonna need somebody's help. Son of a bitch, give me a drink. One more night, but it can't be me. I'm a bitch, and I drink and breathe I'm on my train by the way Welcome to episode I'm Drunk And I'm Ian Oh man, we haven't had one like this in a while Hey Drew Hey man Welcome How do you feel? I feel like we just did this Bro, I killed a bottle, well I didn't drink the whole bottle, it was almost dead but uh what are you what you drinking you know i'll get into it so i was drinking bow more that expensive single malt whiskey that i bought for like 90 bucks it's fucking gross it's the worst that's why i still have it i got that when i like got into my bar you know like i got the bar open and so we just finished episode 137 barely like yeah barely it was it was it was a quote unquote regular episode. Fuck was that long? But anyways, I pour this drink before we started of Bowmore and then I took a sip and I'm like, oh yeah, I remember why this thing's half full because it's been here for five years. It's been aged another 12 years in my basement. Every time I drink a little bit I'm like, yeah, this is terrible. Why do I keep doing this? It's a smoky scotch. Smoky's the word. I'm not a smoky fan that way. But it's like a fake smoke. They did not smoke anything. They put a drop of liquid smoke in there. It's no good. Can I tell you a story? Yeah, go ahead. Go ahead. So I was like, you know what? I want to be a scotch drinker. I thought it would be so cool. So I was like, you know what? I'm going to do a little bit of research. I bought this nice scotch. I want to know how to actually drink scotch. So there's a thing. If you get a really good scotch, you pour it in your glass, and then you can take a little eye dropper, and you can start dropping water drops into it to lessen the heat. you know so you're basically watering down your scotch boring way to drink well right but the scotch drinkers right yeah i'm like oh okay all right so like i pour a glass of my my my bowman 12 year or whatever so the scotch and i take a sip i'm like fuck that's awful right so that i take my little eye dropper i'm like all right they recommend five drops but this is really a lot of hot to it so i put like seven drops in it and then took a sip and i was like nope still bad and then i shit you not the next youtube episode was my review of the bowman you know six or 12 year the same bottle i was like shut up let's look at the review what would they say press play right the guy's like he's got all these videos on scotches you know and he's like Oh, yeah, I taste the hint of elderberry. Wait, wait, wait. We got to go back. What kind of guy is this? Oh, he's a normal dude. Okay. Normal, like, young guy who's got into scotch. All right, fair enough. And he's just doing his own thing. He's not wearing, like, a three-piece suit. No, he's being honest with it. And he's like, this is what I taste. But he's like, yeah, oh, man, elderberry. And I taste, like, you know, this beautiful, like, aroma of, like, the oak cask and stuff. This is other scotches, right? Yeah. He's like, oh, it's amazing. Tastes like diarrhea. He gets to mine. Man, I taste shrimp and fucking seaweed. Let's drink some seaweed. Hey, I want to meet this guy. He's right. No, I love that. Because, yeah, I was waiting for you to be like, oh, yeah, it's got oaky notes and smoke. Because, like, this stuff is just fucking awful. I should have spent 90 bucks on this bottle. I took a sip and I was like, don't fuck yourself. This tastes awful. I didn't look at this video before I bought it. It came in a box. I never bought a bottle of booze that came in a box, so I thought good. So anyways, after all that. Sorry, everybody. We're already at 45. Ian had these little, you know, it's like the little quote-unquote fancy bottles of booze. This one's Jack Daniel's Single Barrel Select, so this is like good stuff. Where'd that come from? They were in your little bottle collection. Dude, I have so many. Yeah, I like the little bottles that they make look like big bottles. That's beautiful. We're going to keep that. Yeah, no, they're cool. So it looks like the big, large bottle of it. But yeah, it's single barrel stuff, so it's actually good. So I just killed the bottle of Duar's White Label blended scotch whiskey. See, and that's how you're supposed to say it. But Drew's like, I want some Dewars. Dewars. Can you put some Dewars in my glass? I did it. I did the Dewars. Yeah, can you pour some Mountain Dew in there? Yeah, no, it's delicious, and it gets right to my fucking soul. and that's why I was struggling with 137, but we're going right into 138 here. We are. We're coming in hot. We're going hot. We're coming in super hot. You know what? Next time I come, we're doing cigars as well. I'm glad cigar season's back. Yeah, no doubt. Which is exciting. No doubt. We finally had a 70-degree day in Wisconsin. No, I smoked one yesterday. I had an Acid Blonde Bellicoso. Really good. I don't know what that is, but that sounds good. No, it is. It is. It's smooth. But these are my favorite called Drunken Truffles. I'm a drunken truffle. Yeah, you are a drunken truffle. I love it. Here's my little drunken truffle. Okay, let's do it. But yeah, if you guys hear. So we're not sponsored by them either, but Cuban Honeys makes a fine line of cigars, and these are great. It's like hints of whiskey, chocolate, vanilla. It's just a really good blend, and it's just really good. You can smoke them in the summer. It's just fantastic. so anyways what are we doing today all right so today we are gonna do um this is basically like fucking friday but we're calling them episodes now well because we are going to talk about some pinball yeah so we're going to go over like our the tpf mgc shows real quick um we're gonna personal news because there's a lot of shit a lot of personal news uh new tribe member but you know we're gonna bring back something that's an oldie but a goodie right we're gonna bring back some dad jokes. You guys excited about that? I am thrilled to the moon because I so part of my life now, I say now, but part of my life has been, whenever I see good dad jokes, I take pictures of them. Half of my photos in my phone are fucking dad jokes. Alright, man, you know what? I think if we're going to do a dad joke episode, Drew, you've got to just start us off right now. I was just about to say, I'm ready. Are you ready? Yeah, do it. Ian, if you invite me to an anti-masturbation session, I'm not going to come. That's so good. That's so good. Hang on, folks. This might be the hardest that Ian has ever laughed at one of my dad jokes. That's the best one you've ever laughed at. I know. I know. And when I saw that, I was like... Right off the bat. I was like, yeah, I tell you, we're coming in hot, man. That was good. That was really good. And you know what's even better about that is you beat me to it. Don't ruin a good thing. That was bad. All right. What's blue and not very heavy? I don't know. Light blue. That was so bad, it was good. And those are my favorite, quite honestly. So, one more. Ooh, we're going in hot. Yep. My friend just fell into the machine that turns people into water vapor. This is terrible. He will be missed. I looked that up, actually. I saw that one. I don't know. That one's just corny, cheesy. I love it. But, yeah, that first one, I'm not going to be able to top, for sure. My next one's really good. I'm going to save it, actually. Okay. I'm going to save it. Save it. So usually with dad jokes, what we'll do is we'll set a timer, right? And when it goes ding, ding, we're going to actually have a joke. So listen for the ding, and we will do some dad jokes. All right. So do you want to talk about MGC? I do. Or do you want to talk about TPF? Well, I want to talk about both. But let's start TPF because that one was first, right? so so tpf was just great and um ian and eric and i flew out uh eric's wife was there and my wife they went with uh my cousin and they were doing like girl shit and um we were just we were just having such a good time there i mean the the thing that i always love about this these shows is the fucking people right we always talk about it and the tribe turned out just like they always oh man the tribe dude we had we we met dan the man uh one of our newest tribe members yes the first time in person him and his wife were there we had a great time yep we did we did awesome and then uh ari ari and joe were there and chris chandler lives there i mean we just the tribe is like Stephen Silver yeah list goes on glenn glenn came out came out to tpf man it was It was nice to see. Jay Salas. So you see the Northern Tribe members at Expo and MGC. So when you go to TPF, you do see some of the other guys. That's a good point. The Northern with the Southern, right? The Southern boys. Yeah. The Southern boys want to feed you a lot of salty meats, and that's good. It's not bad. It is. Well, and then the Kansas City boys, so Ari and Joe Hood, they always joke they're literally eight hours from everywhere. They're eight hours from Chicago. They're eight hours to Texas. They're eight hours. So, like, they just go, right? And they're going to be at Expo, which is great. I think Joseph Hood and I are going to be best friends by the end of it. Dude, he... I bet you he's everyone's best friend. Joe Hood, you know I love you, man. Yeah, he's one of the best. He really is. He's cool. But, yeah, the tribe came out, and we had a good time. Did we...

And who else was down in Texas? this Stephen Silver with uh p3 of course don't forget our boy eric yeah eric well i said eric came with us that was the first thing i said i'm drunk i think i got them all yeah if i forgot it's par for the course um send us an email four man's pinball tells we forgot about dr john's wife dr john's so so dr john's wife came and introduced herself and we're like oh that's great and how are you doing and and where's dr john oh he's at home we're like what the fuck so dr john's wife is there with her daughter emily she's a competitive pinball player so she's playing in the tournament and uh yeah we had a great time uh with dr john's wife and he's he's back in australia doing his doctoring thing i guess and then oh the best story about that did you hear about glenn and uh the porno how about steve john i know he's not oh steve johnson yeah is oh steve john he's adjacent he's tribe adjacent yeah we have we have a new phrase oh man i can't let you down hey ian you know what they say about origami no i fold its value that's good that's not it its value is increasing no no i don't like that at all i hate that so much oh yeah well you know what else i did this week i invented a thought controlled air freshener it makes sense when you think about it much better uh all right this is this one i loved i loved this one uh i once bought a blind friend a cheese grater he said it was the most violent book he's ever read oh my god oh man i love it i love it i love it all right so we're gonna reset that timer because that timer was fucking bodacious right i like i like how it really loud it really hurt yes all right that was jarring uh very jarring somebody swerved off the road listening to that and i love it sorry man um so yeah no tribe members aside it was awesome right steve johnson was there by the way yeah we had a great time with him dude he he so cool he like the nicest guy no isn he though yeah he i swear you know he he like you know he asked me about jj and like he just yeah he's super thoughtful i mean a lot of the tribe is but yeah steve johnson one of the nicest guys in pinball yeah he's one of pinball's treasures for sure and uh kaneda kaneda not part of the poor man's pinball tribe sorry chris keep trying yeah keep he has given us more applications than anyone else. He wants them to try. He applies every day. And I told him, you know what? He offered me all his Patreon subscribers. Keep trying. Keep trying. You know? Yeah. Yeah, we went to the Canada Happy Hour. We did at Perry's Steakhouse. So we go walking in with all of our grungy clothes and this super fancy steakhouse. Yeah. Everybody else that was in the pinball convention was also in grungy clothes. Oh, yeah. And I'm sure Perry's hated it. Well, they didn't hate it when he paid his $2,000 bill. Yeah, well, him in his gold shoes. He looked great. Kaneda always looks great. Chris looked great. But you know what? Can we just say it? Like, Kaneda's a character, but Chris is like a seriously good dude. Oh, I've been saying that for years. I know it. We love you, Chris. You're a good guy, man. But I will share this just because it's our show and it's funny and I like poking people. So, you know, he walked by in the hallway when my wife came briefly to the show. And I said, do you want to meet Kaneda? And she goes, fuck no. He looks like Eminem. That was it. And it was so funny. He was wearing a hoodie, right? Yeah, because he was wearing his hoodie. And she goes, no, she didn't say he looks like. She goes, is he trying to be Eminem? That's what she said. Is he trying to be Eminem? And I said, no, that's how he dresses. And she's like, yeah. He put my spaghetti on his sweatshirt. Yeah. She's like, I'm good. no i mean yeah but but you're 100 right like once again for the for the people out there who listen to us and say like i don't like chris or kaneda or whatever if you if you get to know chris he's he's just he's just a dude just like us and yeah he's a normalized thing yeah and we yeah we do love chris chris good job with everything and we're proud of you but he gave us some good advice for the show too he said uh i was like man i just he asked me why i took a year off and he's i was like man that's just time i'm trying to make a creative show i like i like the creative outlet of it and he goes he's like shit man i've been doing the same fucking show for like eight years it's true it's true he does the same show and there's nothing wrong with that and to that point yeah when you and i do our off the rails shit and just like what we're doing now just kind of fun yeah these are usually our best shows always same thing because we're not trying right that's the whole thing when you're like when you're a couple of dudes hanging out yes wearing no shirts and no shoes and no socks and we're at the beat just jorts in my basement hanging out just like a couple regular dudes that's everyone and and this show you know so kind of kind of rein it back in talking about the show so the the two shows we did in the last month once again i had several people i'm not gonna say dozens but i had several people come up to me that i didn't know say hey i'm a real big fan of the show that one guy had to sign his shirt right he injured a penis on his shirt no i did not what'd you draw didn't you draw a penis i wrote the word penis and he was like you didn't draw a penis on my shirt and you're like nope sure didn't didn't and i was like and and uh and uh um oh god zach was right next to me i was like zach did i draw a penis on his shirt and he looks at he's like no you didn't and i said that's the stand-up guy you know so that's fucking great yeah but i was surprised that he was like right away he was like dude did you draw a penis on my shirt like he knows he knows the word penis oh that's great yeah um but yeah so so these people come up and just say you know we we really like your show we like what you do you know keep it up or you know i like the banter between you two it's always the same thing yeah you know and i said well what about the pinball shit they're like you guys don't know shit about pinball yeah exactly and i'm always like yep you're right and but they're they're like but i listen to every episode yeah because we love it so it's another man oh man i'm gonna run out of jokes hold on let me turn this fucker off oh my god it's so extreme the whole like light show and everything uh right i knew a girl once who got really upset when she tried to climb a tall fence and couldn't get up over one side and on the other. She never got over it. I once got dumped by a girlfriend so I stole her wheelchair. But guess what? She came crawling back. Are you finding disabled people? Everyone hates me. Why do chicken coops only have two doors? I don't know. Well, if they had four, they'd be a chicken sedan. All right. All right. And they get worse, folks. They keep getting worse. Starting the timer again. All right. So. So what about you, man? What did you really like about TPF, MGC? Besides the people. Yeah. The show itself was pretty good. I would say that it is definitely not the best. You know, they claim that they're the best. They need to upgrade big time. They need to expand. i agree it's no they're they're the biggest single pinball machine or pinball show i think or something like that or most i don't know man it was so small you're on to everybody's yes oh no it's it's it's packed it's not asses the elbows it's like asses the buttholes it's yeah you're you're on top of people you are 100 percent fuck going on a saturday or sunday you know it's just it's we said that right like friday was okay and then saturday was just friday was even a little extreme like it's just too much sure there's just you need to get a bigger haul there's nothing no question it has to get bigger you're not coming back next year are you chances are no okay i i i liked it but i didn't like it in the same no i got it was too many people i got you i love the Carl Weathers yeah well sure sure because going there in march but it was nice seeing so many p3s you know because they had a shit they had every single game multi-morphics out of there yeah They had like 10 or 12 of them. I've never seen that many P3s in my life. They had every single game, and then they had like two or three Final Resistance. And, yeah, it was great. Damien was there. He didn't go to MGC, so Damien was there. And we got to meet Martin in person, which was fantastic. Martin was there. I didn't say hi to Martin yet because every time I walked by, he was like kissing babies, shaking hands. So I said hi, and he didn't hear me. It was fine. But Damien was, like, fucking working hard. Damien was on point. He had his show face on. No, they're doing some good things. I didn't fuck with those guys as much as I should have. But, yeah, Hoggis Pinball. Go Hoggis, right? Big fans. So, no, TPF was great. I don't plan on going back. I think Pinball Expo might be my show of choice. Sure, sure. MGC was nice, too, though. We went to MGC. Drew, do you have any thoughts on MGC? Well, just kind of the same thing. I mean, we had a great big booth. Special thanks to Dan Lusin. He really... He gave us a killer deal. He fought us. He still doesn't understand what we were doing there. I don't know what we were doing there, but it was great. Nope, I know it. No clue. But we had three booths for some reason that we still don't know why. I won't happen next week. We only utilized half the space. Dan Lucent, I hope you're not listening. I know he doesn't. But special thanks because Dan was seriously instrumental. He was very generous with his time and his money to help us get that booth going. We actually did really well. We had, like I said, fans stop by. We sold a bunch of shit. I made like a grand in a day. Ian sold so much. The first night, Dave Jeff Brenner and I were laughing because we sold like zero pinball shit. and we set up Ian's video game shit. All my old Sega Saturn stuff from when I was in high school. Yeah, so the first night's kind of like people are coming in. It doesn't even start until 6 p.m. People are asking about like, oh, yeah, where'd you get it from? Yes. I'm like, I bought it from the store. Yeah. I'm like, I bought it when it was new. Oh, my God. We're going to have to change that. You're killing us. Oh, I am definitely going to run out. all right we're gonna up that minimum time well a little bit you know ian i sell lemonade under a tree it's a shady business oh god um where do hamburgers go where do hamburgers go dancing a meatball all right starting to turn you people like this shit i don't know why they do they do but no it was funny they were like oh i repair like broken sega saturns how much do you want for yours i was like that shit ain't broken i was playing it like a month ago it's fine i i'm the only owner like that it was my shit and that's and they didn't understand it they thought i was a collector i'm like no no no no you don't understand this is my shit this works all this stuff works 100 yeah and ian sold almost all of it and it's out of my wheelhouse so like people were coming by asking questions when ian wasn't out of my wheelhouse and and i didn't know but what was amazing to me ian had some games like playstation games that were priced at like 100 bucks 150 bucks and no shit going online for like 300 like i thought 100 was really like like a dozen people picked up the same game that i'm like yeah that's worth five dollars and they're like oh that's a pretty good price and i'm like is it you're gonna pay a hundred dollars that's a good price okay sir i said the same thing man so i was just sometimes you get lucky sometimes you don't sometimes your shit's worth something and sometimes well no shit so anyway if i brought an atari out there they would have laughed at me and said yeah i'll give you five dollars right or even nintendo shit now is starting to go down well as i said it's it kind of moves with the age right because when sega saturn was unavailable to these guys we're we're we're the nintendo crew right so Atari, Nintendo, but now these kids that are in their 30s or late 20s. You got GameCube shit? Yeah. Save it, because GameCube is going to be the next big one, man. These shows, you're going to sell a ton. So it's wild. So I made money at MGC. Yeah, you made quite a bit. Yeah, it was awesome. But meeting everybody was always great. You know, having Rachel there is always great. She's such good people. So, no, good shows, man. Good shows. Good games at these shows. MGC was nice because there wasn't as many people as TPF so the games weren't broken so you got to play some really cool games one of the ones I really liked was the EM oh it's the French one Gay Prairie I did play that a couple times it's cool it has it's own little ball launch I thought that was so fucking cool There is, you know, I still need to get. And there was Time Warp? Yeah, Time Warp. There's Time Warp, Time Zone. There's a couple of them. Time Zone, yeah. The EMs. There were some EMs that were there that were just killer. I need to get a couple of EMs in my collection because now my collection is big enough where it's like, you know, it's cool to have. They're vintage. Some of them are really cool layouts. Some people will love playing them. Yeah. Yeah, no, they're fantastic. Something about hearing a ding. Well, Jeremy Schmitz, he always says you need some chimes in your life. It's a true statement. If you're in this hobby, those chimes. It's chime time, baby. Well, we didn't talk much about it in the last one, but like Bond 60th. That was at MGC. We can play. Thank you, Troy Smith. Yeah, Troy Smith. You can change, before you start your ball, there's like four different options of the sounds. Oh, I didn't know that. Yeah, so Troy Smith was telling us this, right? One of them is, I play with Mike Williams, Tribe member. We're there. Shout out, Mike Williams. Shout out. He was very sweet. Yeah, he was the dock master. He did so good. I'll tell a quick story in a second that's hilarious, and you guys are going to commentate it. I did. So anyways, but he's tough. So he's like, oh, you can make it have old-school chimes. So Mike Williams is like, I'll try that. After the first ball, Mike's like, I want to change it back. The chimes were so awful sounding. Like, it was just ding, ding, ding. They're not real chimes. Yeah, it was like a real high-pitched thing. Not real chimes. And I did the modern sounds, and that was kind of cool. And the layout's great on it, by the way, that figure-eight shot. It's cool. Do you want to get into it now? Yeah, fuck, let's do it, man. We don't have a formula. Von 60th, baby. Dude, Von 60th. No, it was neat, but not 20K neat. Dude, that game is bullshit. I have 20,000 reasons not to buy that game. I can believe that Stern brought back Photoshop art for that game Oh no like I said the art yeah I can believe they did that I just talking gameplay and layout The balls The balls of Stern to say fuck it It's limited. Keith Elwin did it. I'm not defending them, but they're saying it was a licensor. That's all they allow. Bullshit. Because Bond Premium, Bond Pro, Bond LE all have really good artwork. There's Photoshop on there. It's all hand-drawn. well they have like the movie posters on the side art yeah okay but not on the playfield okay this shit was i'm not a bond fan so this shit was straight up pierce brosley ian's a bond fan so he'll and daniel craig looking all sad and shit you're looking at it you're like this is the worst i'll be honest folks like from the moment bond was released i i've been yawning the whole time he's checked out yeah which is fine because he's checked out of half the shit i i'm i'm surprised is Ian has as much love for Foo Fighters as he does. Oh, it's a great game. Right? I had so much fun. Like, most of the time, a new Stern game comes out, and Ian's like, here are three pop bumpers, two rams. I'm super critical, man. You've got to play them a lot. I've learned that. Guess how many pop bumpers Foo Fighters has. Zero. Exactly. Yeah, I would say this. Godzilla taught me a valuable lesson, and you were really high on Godzilla. Yes. I was like, I played it first, and I hated it. and then i played it again because i was like drew loves it i gotta try it again and then a third time because it's like i gotta do it for the podcast and then i did it a fourth time out of the love and fifth time out of the love and sixth time i was like shit it is that good it is and it'll it'll and it improved like with the sales and stuff it's so good sure and i've learned that valuable lesson godzilla taught me that i have to give you know i love to be fair I wasn't always like that because I loved Iron Maiden the first time I shot it. But with Foo Fighters, yeah, man, dude. I shot it once. I was like, I don't know. And then I shot it again and then again and then again. And then we went to MGC, and I was like, I had a good time with it just alone, just one player. Nobody's around me. I can hear it. And I was fucking rocking it, and I was having a lot of fun. and uh i was like fuck jack danger nailed it so but yeah bond 60th god bless you if you have it no doubt about it like it's it's a great layout it's super fun and the stern knows what they're doing with fucking uh the spinner noises because it sounds great it sounds better than pulp fiction fucking way better than pulp fiction listen to 137 if you haven't already um so no it it's And the score reeling or... The score reels. The reels. The score reels. No, I think it's cool. It's so cool. When the game's done, it goes to 007. It's super cool that way. Oh, I didn't even notice that. Yeah. Oh, that's cool. It's very bondish. I dig it. I wouldn't be opposed to them using that package some more. But there's no side plays. No, no. There's no side plays, Drew. $20,000 doesn't even give you side bills. I would be okay with them using that package, using the score reels, maybe a different layout, whatever, if it was an affordable price. That's the problem. That is a $4,000 pen, in my opinion. I know. That's a home pen edition pen that is limited edition. Blasphemy. No, it's not. We can't talk about these luxury toys like that. Stern, are you listening? Yeah. Your box of lights are bullshit, dude. that one no i'm with you man no i can't not keith ellen's fault at all no not at all and i found out that george gomez kind of designed that top hat spinner thing you know that that's cool no it's it's cool layout but uh for 20k you get you know three foo fighters i mean like fuck you know that's that's the whole thing i was playing with someone his name will not be released to the public but he said uh this is one of those dick measuring games you know you have it in your collection yep yep well sure there's it's just like anything right cars or watches or whatever right it's it's all the same it's like i got this thing it's limited they only made 500 of them i own it all right stop we're good you know my ex-wife she ditched me because i was going a bit bald i didn't care anyways it was hair loss not mine i like that i like that um what's uh what's whitney houston's favorite type of coordination uh-oh what hand eye hand eye oh my god really I love how you whispered broke on that one what's better than a paradise two paradises three dice you were close three dice alright so let's so those are the show wrap ups alright we're good Yeah, yeah, yeah. All right. Oh, my God. We're already at 33 minutes. We're killing it. We're killing it. We destroyed it. We're killing it. All right. So you want to go into a new tribe member? I do. It's been a long time. It hasn't, especially since you and I together have announced a new tribe member. Because we've had a couple since you were on your little hiatus. Yeah. We had Daryl Van Landyte. We had Dan the Man. Yeah. I think that's really it. yeah we didn't do a lot we did two in one year yeah yeah no shit congratulations see here's the thing we're limited edition we're we're being pretty cautious just because um you know the tribe is fantastic as we always say and most participate most of the time you know some of them have fallen out it happens life happens but we're really trying to get people that are gonna to like you know stick around for the long haul right be part of this community that we've kind of created because it's important to us it's a motley crew it is it is because that's the thing like there's there's some people in the community that i'm like they're great people but they just don't have that it's the x factor tribe x yeah it is true looking for tom brady i'm in here looking for lunch. Well, no, I'm saying some people, I'm like, that guy's really nice, but if I say butthole, he puckers his own butthole, right? So that guy or girl isn't going to work because they get squeamish and we're just doing whatever. Being ourselves. They're really friendly people. Everyone wants to be the tribe member. Not everybody can handle the tribe. That's right, because we're R-rated. We're in your face. We do weird shit. We do what we want. Yeah. I poop weird. It's weird. You're going to have to deal with it. He's got to poop weird. I don't know. Whatever. Joe Hood was cool with it, so fuck you. Joe Hood's one of us. That's for sure. Thank you, sir. May I have another? Thank you, sir, may I have another? Thank you, sir, may I have another? Wait, no, yeah! Old school there, man, tribe member. All right, so the last tribe member, Drew, Darryl Van Landynoot. Van Landite. Van Landite. Van Landite. There's no dite here. Van's Landite. It's a dute. It's a d-u-y-t. it's a dude it's tight that's a dude all right daryl sorry brother sorry man well welcome to the tribe daryl uh yeah he is a little behind here uh daryl i didn't know you were a tribe member congrats man no i'm kidding all right so we're going number 47 we're almost at 50 we're trying to get to 50 before we're gonna get to 50 before the end of the summer absolutely man Because there are so many great people in the Spinball community. Not everyone is cool enough to be in the tribe, unfortunately. That's just life, man. Can I just say this person is long overdue? Oh, this person should have been in the tribe probably a year or two ago. Sorry, bro. We're a little behind. Oh, the Bucs just stand up. I will say this. We lose time. There's a couple things I don't like about this person, which i'll share shortly this is what we do in the tribe i love everything about this person no i no let me rephrase that i love it's too late you said shut the fuck up i love everything about the person but some of the things that she is a part of oh uh we might need to discuss so uh it's a hardcore drop i'm kind of sick of having some of our tribe members be part of those other networks Oh, is that a thing? Not really. It's kind of a running gag and a joke. But, you know, we'll talk. So she crosses the board at other networks. Yeah, yeah, yeah. She's multi-networked. I should say she will be multi-networked soon. So this person is a fixture in the pinball community. this person has been I think five or six years maybe maybe more she has her own podcast on the pinball network bullshit we'll take her we'll take you so we were at TPF and we should have inducted this person but everyone including myself somebody got too drunk she brought stickers she did bring stickers but she also stole Eric Meunier's hat I want to point out and she had a lot of fun that night. She's trouble. She is trouble. Perfect. And that's why she's here with the tribe. We are proud to announce tribe member number 47, Amanda Hamilton. Yay! Amanda, she had no idea this was happening because, like I said, it should have happened at TPF. It is long overdue. She is a degenerate like the rest of us. We love Amanda Hamilton. We love TPN. We love everything she's doing over there with Bill Webb. um she parties with the best of us she brought stickers for us so you guys don't use i'm sorry i know we will so ian came up with this idea was that last year uh expo yeah expo where he bought these silly lisa frank stickers no they're just stars whatever gold stars and we had um it's a drinking game i had in college that i made up someone made tribe like badges like with the lanyards i did that too yep oh uh someone brought one to uh who was that scoots scoots scoots like and amanda he goes i brought cannolis and this that's what he said to me and he had his lanyard i felt bad i couldn't find my land so so i couldn't do that i was drunk so the deal was every time you had a drink you would you'd put a gold sticker on your lanyard and then someone stole our stickers let you know how many stickers you had how many drinks you've had. Well, shit. It's something fun. So Amanda, in her generous nature, she's like, guys, I'm bringing stickers to TPF. I didn't have a lanyard. I know. We had no lanyard to put the stickers on. I should have just put it on my shirt. I just wasn't there, man. I don't know. We're super disorganized at the Porma. I didn't drink enough at TPF. That was another problem. We didn't get crazy, but it was still a good time. All right, Amanda. We love you. But Amanda, welcome to the shit show that is The Tribe. we will send you the invite to our awesome Facebook group and there are secret hidden benefits that you are sworn to secrecy and you can't tell anybody financial gains well the first thing is the $45 a month Patreon subscription we pay you actually is that how that works we're broke as shit that's why we're the poor man we actually pay for our Patreon I don't know if you knew this is how we make all our money of the tribe members pay us $50 a month to be part of the tribe. So, yeah, our sponsor is Zach at Flip N Out Pinball. He pays us, we pay you, and this is why we have now 47 listeners. Every tribe member is a new listener. Amanda, we are so glad to have you part of our community. This is super long overdue. Sorry it didn't happen sooner. A little sore about you being with TPN, but that's okay, because TPN is all right in my book. Not as good as PPN, but, you know, nothing's as good as PP. Or PP, just in general. Who doesn't love a good PP? All right. We're at 41. Drew? Yeah. Dad jokes? Yeah. Wrap-up dad jokes? Man, I got a zillion of them. All right, dude. Well, we can go over personal pinball news, too. So why don't you do a dad joke, and we'll do personal pinball news. Let's do it, man. what happens to silverware after it replaced i don know It goes to the old Forks home Oh shit Shame on you sir Shame on you. I knew Ian would hate that one. He hates the puns. The word that hurts so hard. Well, come on. Finish this up with a good one here. What do you got? I'm actually going to skip this one and go to one that I screenshotted. Hold on. Two cannibals are eating Amy Schumer. One looks over to the other and says, Does something taste funny to you? And the other one answered, No. Why does Dr. Pepper cum in a bottle? Because his wife is dead. Oh, my God. Oh, my God. Oh, man. Yep. Good night, everybody. All right, so Drew, I got to ask you this. Yeah. All right, we'll wrap this up soon, guys. I swear to God. I promise. I promise. I'm so sorry. What are we doing with our lives, man? I'm so sorry we kept you up this late. Yeah. All right, so Drew, you bought a P3. I did. I did. So I sold Guns N' Roses. um i sold uh mandalorian to jeremy schmitz it's his first lcd game whoa jeremy schmitz has like literally like 25 games right yeah mostly uh belly williams dmds great games indiana jones twilight zone the best of them yeah yeah he has he has some great great games and he loves mandalorian and i was really shocked by that just because of his collection right yeah because he He's never bought a new... No, I shouldn't say that. He's bought a couple of new in-box games, but he bought Metallica and Rob Zombie and games from that era. Right. But no LCDs, right? Yep. And so he was really excited. He's like, well, you're selling your Mandalorian. I'm like, yeah, and he bought it. So really excited about that. Yeah, I'm getting Foo Fighters Premium. Nice. I'm getting a P3 Weird Al. I'm also getting Final Resistance. nice and because i haven't paid for any of yet i'm probably going to order a heist because i can so so when canada was on uh with uh orbital albert um orby as we like to call him all right or as canada calls him orbiter and he called him out on that he always called me orbiter orbiter albert um do you worry about resale value no no and i'll tell you why a couple of things so go ahead hold on let me let me let me so the argument is it's hard to sell a p3 unit with all the modular modules and stuff and that was kind of the whole shtick of it like with a pinball machine you sell a pinball machine right you buy one you sell one you buy one you sell one sometimes you make some money sometimes you don't so with the p3 it's a little different It is. So here's my thought. I think that P3 modules are inexpensive enough. So let me go back a step. When you buy a P3, I think you have to be in it for the long haul. Yes. Which isn't usually me. That's true. Yes. That's true. Right? However, I do like new games. Meaning, if I get bored with the games I have, I can always buy the new games. Or even older games. Like Cannon Lagoon might not be the most sought-after P3 game, but brand new, it's only $1,800. Seems like a lot, though. Does it? For Cannon Lagoon. But... don't butt me i know i'm gonna butt you but you can also you're gonna say 800 i was like well you can also add software to that particular one for a couple hundred dollars more so now you have another game right okay so let's call it 2500 you have a couple of choices right with that module okay this is why you're a smart man let me tell you nobody's ever said that but go ahead That's why you're smart, man. This is the time to get a P3 because the price is still not raised. I agree. I know they got some shit coming. They do. That's going to be out of control. That's my point. I still want them to get a Mario. Yes. Yes. I still want them to get the Sonic. Yes. Yes. Still, God bless it, I want them to get a Mad Max. How about this? I want a badass game. The last... They're too... I'm sorry, P3. Go ahead. You guys are too nerdy. You need to man up. Sure, sure. I want some fucking Diesel. I want some badassery. I want Fury Road. Sure. Mad Max Fury Road. But the last three games, two of them have been unlicensed, but all three games are fantastic. They are great. They're only going to get better. Correct. So that was my point. You know, Weird Al kind of... Get your P3 now. Yeah. Are you listening, Stern? Are they a sponsor? V3's not a sponsor. So they came out with Heist, and everyone was like, this mech, it's really cool, right? It's dope. And then they came out with Weird Al, which was their first licensed theme, which went over real well. It's dope. Yep. And then Final Resistance. It's dope. It's dope. There you go. So three games in a row. Three dopes. Three dopes. Butthole. So when a new game comes out, if I only have to spend $3,500, that's a much easier pill to swallow than $9,000. God bless you. So, yes, I'm in it for a long time. And I'm not getting it until, like, November. So, like, I'm buying. So here's the thing, guys. Not so dope. Not so dope. Sorry, Jerry. Manufacture faster. First off, there was, like, 11 games at your show. Just give Drew one more. Yeah, I just saw one of them. Ian Silver, are you listening? So, Foo Fire Premium is coming from Flip N Out Pinball. Bye, from Zach and Nicole, Flip N Out Pinball. Love you. They sell everything but P3. Sorry. It's the truth. He'll tell you the same. So, if you want a new pinball magame, that is not a P3. The Irish version. Yep, the magame. The magame. If you want a pinball machine that is not a P3, go to Zach and Nicole, Flip N Out Pinball. if if you want a p3 talk to me talk to uh send me a message i can get you in touch with justin wise he is an amazing distributor for p3s uh we will try to get uh multimorphic to be a sponsor of the show i will reach out to jerry it will be a thing i'm making a thing jerry we're pushing your p3s for you but but contact me we'll get you in contact with justin wise he's a great uh multi-morphic distributor um i'm getting foo fires premium flipping out pinball i am getting an iron maiden pro in may flipping out pinball jesus christ i am getting venom in september flipping out pinball premium getting divorced in december I just made a deal with Ian I'm getting his Deadpool premium or pro, not flipping out pinball not flipping out, Ian Ian's flipping out I am selling my Deadpool I'm finally getting a Deadpool pro I finally played a game of Deadpool and I was like I'm not having as much fun as I should and I thought, okay, it's time to go it's time it's time so that's why like i said i had to move some games out guns and roses sorry i had to go um everyone knows i'm the stern fan boy but i'm really excited about p3 and uh the new stuff that's coming out so we'll see how it goes i have a paragon still coming i have a whirlwind still i didn't even tell you about that i got a whirlwind coming jesus um yeah lots of games coming so i had to get rid of a few because they're not all gonna fit so a whirlwind yeah well nice dude it is right oh i love i love system 11 yeah it's a fun game so this guy who's bringing my paragon from minneapolis he he buys and sells a lot he you know moves games around so he he asked me about he says he has a whirlwind he has a nice brand new play field i was like yep i'll take it all because i'll i'll put it in a play field it's happening it's happening so there you go poor Man's pinball podcast, personal pinball news. That's Drew's personal news. I got a ton myself. What do you got, man? I'm joking. I don't have that much. Dude, you just named like 12 games you're getting. I know. All this year. Drew's flipping his entire collection for another collection. No, I was just going to say, yeah, I'm selling Deadpool Pro to Drew. I figured, fuck it. He's asked so long. I could get more money if I sold it to anybody else. But I love him to death. I love you, man. We'll give him the Deadpool Pro. I'm paying him $1,400 for it. He says it's a good deal. I haven't looked yet. PinballPrices.com, talk to Doc Finley. Yeah, Doc Finley will tell you that it's worth $1,400. Doc will say you're fucking full of shit. Change it right now, Doc. I'll give you $100 if you change it right now. Doc will say it's going for about $7, but Drew's getting a deal. Yeah, you know what? Zach gave me a great offer on Creature for a bond premium. So that was kind of the joke. A used bond premium. Zach was like, I can do this. I'll take your Creature, and I'll give you a used, almost new bond premium. Yeah, 300 plays. So you're hesitating. Yeah, I don't know. Because you love Creature. Well, I'm not done. I'm not done with Creature. No, Deadpool money is taking my family on a Disney vacation. That's already stopped. Need more money. Okay. Got it. So Creature is, the problem is it's not done. And second, I think I could sell it for more money. Well, you probably could. And then I guess here's the thing. Bond premiums are going to be readily available, right? They always will be. That's what I'm saying. I could get a new one if I sell Creature and put in another $1,000. You know what I'm saying? No, no, exactly. That's what I'm saying. You would have an easier time finding a bond premium than finding another creature. Right. So I guess for that, I wouldn't trade and then just wait because bond premiums might even come out. It's a sweet deal that Zach gave me. No, no, no. It's fine. And yeah, I could easily say, yes, I will get my car tomorrow and I will deliver it to Chicago or whatever. And then we'll do the swap. Boom, boom, boom. But you can buy one new two years from now. For sure. Because they'll be making those until like 2025 or whatever. So I'm not in a big rush. Okay. No, that's fair. It was at a show, 300 plays. Not that it's like beat to shit at all. No, it's a new game. It is still a new game. But I think once I finish the creature the way I want to finish it, because I'm going to put more money into it because that's stupid. But once I get it done where I'm happy with it, then we can play that game. All right, guys. We're going to wrap it up now. It's way too late for Drew and Ian. Way past their bedtime. Welcome, Amanda Hamilton, to the Degenerates. That is the tribe. I can't believe we recorded two episodes, but here we are. We did it. It's fucking ridiculous. It's not quite midnight, but we did it.
