Episode 1: So....Welcome!

PodcastAnalysis updated 2d ago37 min listen
From the creator

First ever episode lets talk pinball and see how she goes!

Highlights

  • There is a content gap in pinball podcasts between Monday and Friday that the host aims to fill
  • Stern's next release is expected within the next couple weeks, with Venom as the leading candidate
  • Toy Story 4 is overpriced relative to its gameplay quality, worth Stern Premium tier pricing ($8-9k) not current LE pricing ($12k+)
  • Star Trek Pro has three of the best ramps in all of pinball to hit
  • The warp ramp shot on Star Trek Pro is singularly the most satisfying combo of shots in all pinball

Notable quotes

My plan is to do a weekly podcast. And the main reason is to fill this gap that seems to be somewhere between like Monday and Friday.
Jason Liebel
I am not a pro player. I'm not in any sort of media, I guess aside from this first fucking podcast... The short answer is absolutely no one.
Jason Liebel
Venom seems to be the leading and most likely [Stern release], I guess.
Jason Liebel
I think at the most, [Toy Story 4] it's a Stern premium price point is where it should be. At that price point, you know, eight to nine grand, I'd own it for a few weeks... But at that price, it's just not [worth it].
Jason Liebel
When you start hitting that [warp ramp] over and over and over and over without missing a beat, it's orgasmic. It is.
Jason Liebel
I've owned Star Trek Pro three times and I currently own a Star Trek LE. So for me it holds a strong enough place that I tried it a few times and I was like, you know, this is a game I always kind of want to have.
Jason Liebel
Star Trek is a fantastic first [game]. It's a great game for you to love all the kind of current things about pinball aside from maybe the LCD screens of the Spike 2 and the JJP etc.
Jason Liebel
I don't bolt anything to the floor. I never do. Probably never have. The games I have thought of bolting to the floor, a week later, them shits are gone.
Jason Liebel
