1:46:00

Episode 12 of The Meltdown Pinball Podcast is a group of pinballers going through ... not Post Pinburgh Depression as stated in the New Pinball Dictionary , but Post Pinburgh Decompression. This is part one of our collaboration, and I decided to separate it at a very appropriate point (you'll see .. or rather you'll hear). Part two (episode 13) will be released soon and will pick up right where part one leaves off. Join Duncan McFarlane, Luke Cervi, Jack Danger, Kikasaurus Rex and me as we break down Pinburgh and many other pinball things as they come up. This was Duncan's first Pinburgh competition, and ReplayFX was Luke's first-ever pinball show so I was happy to have their perspectives on ReplayFX, Pinburgh, and pinball in general. Although we were decompressing after Pinburgh ended, most of the discussion is "evergreen" as we cover more topics than just ReplayFX. There's no synopsis here ... Well, I'll add this: Many, and large quantities of beverages were involved in the making of this production (see cover photo). --- Music: Dilemmachine – Fred https://youtu.be/EPug-w5HVpE https://soundcloud.com/officialdilemmachine/fred Follow Dilemmachine SoundCloud: https://soundcloud.com/officialdilemmachine/ https://www.facebook.com/dilemmachinemusic Fun With Bonus is the home of the semi-coherent, misguided ramblings of professional and amateur pinball players.…

51:41

It's the Christmas gift that no one expected ... or the Holiday curse that no one wanted! It's the seventh episode of The Meltdown Pinball Podcast! International Pinball Sensation, Krystle Gemnich of the Rip Tide Pinball Podcast joins The Meltdown as we sit in the audience during the Oktoberfest game reveal seminar at Chicago Pinball Expo. -- After the introductions and a (very edited) seminar period where we talk under our breaths, at about 18:30 into this attempt at recording a podcast, we get the opportunity to step up to play American Pinball's newest offering. We don't go up there immediately of course. It's better to wait for the crowd rushing the game to drain away a bit first. This is followed by fly-on-the-wall coverage of whatever we talked about as we got our first flips on the new game. It's a good thing to listen to in the background while you do whatever and stuff -- Also, guest starring International Internet Pinball Sensations Jack Danger of Dead Flip , Jeff Teolis of Pinball Profile , Ron Hallett, Jr. of Slam Tilt Podcast , Nitzan Gabai, Tommy Floyd, Koi Morris, Jason Rufer, and Al Cihak. -- Intro and Outro Music: FunHouse Multiball (Matt Dibrindisi Mix) Santaur meme by: Joel Cohen…

Ep. 6 - There's a meme for everything 38:26

38:26

Nikki and Steve return, severely delayed but slightly more coherent. This was recorded moments after the STOMP tournament in Rochester, New York so it's a throwback to that time. A time right after my career and life started to change. This time, we talk about how Nikki enjoyed a 12-hour tournament and that sometimes, all you need is the meme. There's a meme for everything.

28:05

It's Nikki (@KikasaurusRex) and Steve (@FunWithBonus) at our most Meltdown-y! Reporting from the Southern Fried Gaming Expo near Atlanta, Georgia are two very tired pinballers. We tried to do all the things at SFGE, and attempted to do a podcast afterward. This is the episode where we discover the cell phone microphone picks up everything, so apologies for the shuffling sounds that happen during the conversation. We have learned the Pinvasion Tournament will not be happening next year at Southern Fried Gaming Expo. Thanks to Bryan Broyles and his crew for running the tournament. I'm sure that this part of the event will be missed by many. This was before a major life change started happening for Steve. That was part of the reason for the delay between episodes.
