Over the weekend, I've started a new podcast devoted to EM and bingo pinball.
It's located at foramusementonly.libsyn.com
I'm no expert, nor do I purport to be. I just love these older machines and don't really understand the hatred or indifference I see in folks my age or younger.

I know there's lots of folks out there with more knowledge than me - I never played an EM on location - but I've fixed quite a few.
Here's the bad stuff about me - Edit - I do have a Facebook Page! facebook.com/foramusementonlypodcast - and a Twitter account bingopodcast -End of Edit - I'm very technically minded, so my stuff may be a little dry - sorry about that! I yam what I yam.
-Edit- I was able to submit it to iTunes, so you Apple folks can find me there, too.
Now the good: I've already recorded and edited three episodes. I have another planned for this evening.
I have already discussed early bingos, some technical challenges, and magic screen games briefly. I'll be going over different odds colors this evening.
I plan to discuss any and all EM games, including ball bowlers, puck bowlers, mannikin games, very early pinball (prewar), woodrails, etc.
I may also delve into later games if the mood strikes (or I'm angry that a repair took too long), but that won't be the main focus.
I hope to have interviews with folks in the community - if anyone's interested, let me know.
I'll have a mystery guest here in the next episode or two.
Forgive the default website, I'd rather pour time into recording episodes than beef that up for now. The feed is available at http://foramusementonly.libsyn.com/rss - you can already find it in Pocket Casts, Stitcher Radio and on Facebook.
Thanks for looking!
