We barely made it this month but the first show of 2012 is here at last.

You'd better listen to it quickly because hot on its heels will be a February Steve Ritchie and AC/DC pinball special released on the 7th.

Great job on the show, guys. Consistently entertaining as usual. I didn't like the Top 10 so much. I love licensed themes as much as anyone, but at the same time I recognize the creative freedom that is lost. Good call grouping the multiple game franchises as such, that way I didn't have to be bothered that High Speed didn't make it but The Getaway did. Also the fourteen hours of expo-related stuff made me want to scrounge the money necessary to get to Midwest Gaming Classic a day early the help out. I've helped in the past, and it's super fun to help out at cons.

The OZ stuff is brilliant!

Done.

Thou hast ended a fullsome show quite smartly Sir Miner! A show that hast bequeathed a great deal of tom foolery upon we humble listeners. Having proven thine comedic efficacy with thine aforementioned podcast that thou hast wrought, to thee and thine minions I shall be indebted Sir. Much joy dost cometh hither and henceforth. Huzzah!

I like Black Hole. I remember playing it for the first time at a mom and pop type business. I think it was one of those hispanic stores of all places. But in any case, the machine was in good shape and I almost got the replay.
For the Elvira machine, I like it when she says "don't touch me there" when you press the start button when there are no credits on it.
The others on the list are great also and I could tell stories about those also. I have not played Evel Knievel since about 30 years now. Maybe someday it will show up at the Pinball Hall of Fame or at California Extreme.
