They talk about using the Pinball Map app to discover local spots, plan road trips, and hunt down specific machines, from modern releases to rare games you might never stumble on otherwise. The conversation covers playing pinball while touring, finding great locations in the US and abroad, and why tournaments are often the best sign that machines are actually maintained and worth playing. The episode also dives into a ruthless “you choose” scenario involving Pulp Fiction, The Big Lebowski, and Elvira, plus a Dream Theme pitch that might be a little polarizing but makes a surprising amount of sense.","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/9hVKuQId8wOMsUS-L3sFUoSic4ixPf0DqHYg4mwiMsM/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS84ODVi/YjU2M2M2YzNjNDNj/ODZjNzI4NzJmZTVk/ODUzZS5qcGc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
