He does?

He did

He didn't.

I‘ve never happened to stumble upon an Alien themed Lunchbox.

"Stumble upon"

( But it DOES look better. XD )

It‘s

just

pinball.

You're not even competing yourself, yet still being a horrible sport.

I'll sign that.

Only show that surpasses that positivity is the Puppet Palz (wich I nominated and that sadly didn't even end up in the Top10).

There is one thing tough that I think holds TPS a bit back, wich is that all shows follow the same rules, so they're kinda... "predictable".
You have the weekly news (wich many just read on TWIP), then you talk about them, then comes the pinball market trends etc.

This has two downsides. First is, when there is no news, there not much beef to the show (while Kaneda just makes something up his bum).
-> Just give us more of you and Dennis and above ground pools!

Second, you can't just skip an episode that is "not for you". Like, when Kaneda goes on a 10 podcast run about pooling or anything else and two podcasts in forgets that his "facts" are assumptions he made up himself 2 episodes ago, I just don't listen. If I listen to the Final Round (wich is great) and here comes the part where they talk about competitive pinball, I can't/ won't fumble with my phone while driving.
-> You can't and srsly won't change your show to that, but I still laugh my butt off thinking about that Hobbit Discussion you had with Dennis. Why not just make pure News show once a week (and maybe not on the same day the TWIP update hits, so you won't have the exact same news). An additional Market trends episode once a week. And maybe an additional smacktalk episode now and then.

I want an AKIRA pinball!!!

Well you don't need to add a hefty dose of creative freedom with his statement, and still be right.

Like with the "Sonic" Homebrew his interview might have given it the edge, not that it was "soley because of".
Even he admits that it's speculative altough he'd like to belive that.

I quit listening to that episode also.
He IS right in some regards and YES I was bummed with the 30 minute wait till the video starts as well (especially since it was allready 1AM here), BUT he ALWAYS ignores every aspect that is not in his line of sight. Like producing this kinda content, trophys and stuff costs money that has to be re-earned somehow.
And no, you can't air this shit half an hour earlier because you're paid that people actually watch that stuff.
Better have it as a warm up then one commercial between each TWIPY.

So better Do the TWIPY the TWIPY way and have the TWIPYS, then doing it the Kaneda way and end up having nothing (because there was no budget).

In my opinion flynnibus an kaneda should get along really well, they're both full of smack.

But yeah, you don't "expose" people (for whatever pinball shit), I thought we're over that.

I think he DOES do what he enjoys...

The first thing I'd not necessarily agree with, and the second... well who doesn't?

I know you like a good scoop, digging up all that Deeproot stuff, for... what reason exactly?

I wouldn't agree that it's fun to poop on other peoples work in the public, but if it is we may have our reason why Kaneda enjoys it so much.

(And: Not to poop on you either. Everyone likes the Spotlight is what I wanted to say. - Kaneda is playing in a different league though. XD )

My opinion is, if Kaneda would have someone to talk to he wouldn't need to cover every position in an argument.
That is basically what he is doing all the time, having a discussion with himself over the course of his show.

- "Don't buy any game without playing it!"

- "I would buy Mando sight unseen if I were you, because the prices will explode."

- "How can you buy that cheapass lackluster Stern games that give you nothing?! Vote with your wallet and don't buy!"

None of this positions are "wrong", they're just all from a different point of view... from the very same Person... wich also is very 'absolute' when talking...

...and then says "I SAID SO!!!", and he doesn't even lie, he just said the opposite also. -_-;

Not even Robert Mueller?

Amen to that, especially that "frequent flip flopping both funny and borderline maddening" part.

I like Kaneda as long as he's not on a rant loosing it or borderline flip flopping (even in the same sentence) wich gives me a headache. I just don't click on any playfield episodes and if he starts to loose within an episode I turn off.
But speculation is fun, and he is very good at building something up talking. But I'd never ever hire him, because he's very quick with the backstab!

I'm heavily bored on night shift, that's why I post so much shit right now... XD

Edit: You have to induldge me for 2 more hours.

I wonder...

Same*ish*

(I think it‘s 5 or so...)

Not by the listeners numbers and voting base? Poor shmuck!

I honestly wonder why they're still talking to him at all (when he recently said he'd a call with George Gomez).

Wow, I mean I'd give my testicles to meet George Gomez and Steve Ritchie!
(And yes, I have children and I don't want more, so...)

The pin would do.

That's what got me into pinball.

Whatever it is... godd luck to you, I hope it get's better.

If it's something you can change, take the chance.

He underlines his position, while still allowing him to talk quikly yet by repeating giving him time to think.

The "we" is him and you, so subconciously he talks for you, is your voice makes you agree and bond.
(If you ever hear the News Moderator say "We (don't want his)", just turn it off. It's propaganda.)

The other third person is Kaneda vs Chris, so he can basically allways fall back that Kaneda is an alter ego/ art character and not himself, if he needs to distance himself from something too stupid.

Kaneda IS very good with this. He's also good to structure his shows, like intentionally teasing the good part you tuned in ("I'll reveal what XY next game is") but getting trough all the other stuff first. - So you're on your toes listening.

Mostly artists and as alternative for broken youtube commercial remuneration rules.
