10/11/2022
Let's call this one the "After Summer Hiatus 2022 show" :)
We're back in the studio after a rather impromptu break over the Summer and catching up on life, projects, more life and toss in some arcade and pinball talk along the way.
As a bonus, we have a virtual sit-in with David Corrigan, owner/organizer of the Music City Multi Con, as he takes us through all the highlights of the 2022 version of the expo, taking place Oct. 28-30th, right outside of Nashville, TN. We'll be there conducting some panels, playing pinball, cruising the vendor booths and having an all-around great time - we hope to see you there!

107: Canned Heat
10/4/2022
Let's call this one the "Before Summer 2022 Hiatus show" :)
Yep, we admit it - the summer got away from us and we didn't get this episode out nearly as quickly as intended. This one has been "in the can" for a couple of months, and we'll let you decide if we brought any heat... (insert wah wah sound here).
We cover a host of topics from microscopes to power supplies to Rally-X and Toy Story 4 from JJP. Even though the pinball reveal is old news at this point, I don't think our opinions are off the mark today, so give us a grade!

104: The KLOV Kloset
3/3/2022
It's the (hopeful) end of Winter weather here in the Bluegrass and that means the expo circuit is right around the corner. In that vein, we feature a discussion about the upcoming 2022 Louisville Arcade Expo with organizers Corey Stup and Joe Stith and get amped up for the show - especially coming off of a two-year hiatus!

And we (non-ASMR) try some Ghostbusters cereal - yeah, it'll all make sense after you listen to the show. :)

Just in the nick of time, we cross the finish line to round out 2021 and discuss what the past several months has been like for us here at the show.
As you know by now, we took a 3-month hiatus and we discuss that happening and what transpired that necessitated the break. Thanks to everyone who noticed the break, reached out and asked if we were OK - we appreciate each and every one of you!
This episode is dedicated to Whitney's father, Housecat. Words will never be enough, but may the fishing be good every single day.
