Description
In this episode of the podcast, Alan and Alex are joined by their friend Jessica DeNardo, a multi talented woman who hosts her own pinball podcast (the Pinball Podcast), makes and sells her own pinball inspired clothing (Soft Plunge), founded the Portland chapter of the Belles & Chimes, worked as a pinball tech in Florida, and has recently moved to Houston to work on the production and assembly line at Barrels of Fun Pinball Company helping to manufacture their first pinball machine 'Labyrinth'
The three of us talk in depth about all the wild and interesting extra button gimmicks found on pinball machines through the eras, from the magna saves on Black Knight and Grand Lizard, to the shifter knob on Getaway, to the Gator ball eater on Nip-It, all the way up to Stern's usage of the central action button on their lockdown bars.
There's some really cool and interesting gimmicks over the years, and we do our best to cover as many of them as possible.
...but we are adults, so occasionally we use some adult language.
