Welcome to the Pinball Nerds Podcast! Your host Orbital Albert will nerd out with you about all things pinball, with a focus on his goal of someday becoming a pinball wizard!
"Maybe I'm a little biased because I know "Orbital" Albert personally and have had the pleasure of being a guest on his podcast, but here's my review anyhow. Firstly, I'm amazed by the sheer productivity of how many episodes he has recorded in such a short span of time (even though the frequency of episodes has slowed down a bit). As a long time listeNERD, it's been quite an emotional roller coaster and a privilege to be privy to the inner-monologue of a fellow pinball enthusiast talking about the big news stories of the day. Orby's style is quick and dirty and released with minimal editing, which can be a bit rough on the ears oftentimes. Speaking "off-the-cuff" he sometimes can go way off script, which can also be a bit frustrating, but eventually you'll just accept these things as part of the show's unfiltered charm. I love the energy, I love the passion and whenever he screws something up, I just have a little chuckle. It's a must listen if you eat, sleep and breath(e) PINBALL!"

Orby intentionally scams a Facebook pinball machine scammer to waste their time and protect community members.
Cary Hardy called out Mike's pinball machines on fb for being a scam so Orby does one better and wasted HPURS of their time scamming them as funny as possible! Perhaps the most fun EVER had on the show Orbs recounts the scam of a lifetime AND also dips his toe into the bath of hell that has become facebook recently including but not limited to Pinball Enthusiasts mod going bonkers and banning people quick then a double drainbow!

Why did Kaneda quit his show after Racheal and Cale won best pod, was his meldown justified, will he ever be back? Oh yeah sterns putting out those dragongate fires and it's effect on the market, plus did the newest pin from Ramps, Road Trip hit one hell of a massive detour?!
