I used to subscribe to many different podcasts, but I've dropped nearly all of them over time. Most of them because the people running it just stopped doing it, like C2C and Coinbox. Broken Token is one I never got into, mostly because of their interminable length. The only I remember actively dropping because I didn't like it anymore was This Flippin' Podcast. That was mostly due to the lack of integrity of its hosts. They spent an entire episode lecturing listeners about women in pinball, and the next episode...oops! Tommy was cheating on his girlfriend for a year. Taylor complained about Stern quality control for almost half an episode, then bought Ghostbusters a week later while insisting he wasn't a hypocrite. That pretty much knocked me out of the box for them.

In general, what's kept me from enjoying more podcasts is that they are usually current events based, and the current events have been:

1) Stern cheaping out, charging huge prices and not finishing code for years. (Is KISS finally done?)
2) JJP having themes people don't like, charging huger prices and being months (years?) behind schedule.
3) Skit-B's a scam.
4) Jpop's a scam.
5) Heighway's a scam.
6) Dutch is a scam.
7) Homepin's a scam.
8) Wrath of Olympus was stillborn.
9) Spooky's cool, but small.
10) Older games are even more expensive now.
11) A billion tournaments I don't care about.
12) Trudeau's a pedo.

How are you supposed to get people excited about that? Without really trying, the overwhelming negativity surrounding the hobby made the podcasts more negative, and I'm not about that. It's left me with Spooky, For Amusement Only and Bro Show Monthly. At least everybody gets what they ordered in a reasonable time with Spooky. The EMs are something different. Buffalo Pinball is in with JJP, but I've never felt like they were biased. They've given too many high grades to Stern for me to think that. I've started with Pinball News and This Week in Pinball, but it sounds like they're mostly about stuff on their web sites, so I'm not sure if I'll continue. Podcasts were a big part of my pinball fandom, and its a shame how quickly it's fallen the past few years.
