Quoted from GeekedOnPinball:I'm fairly new to the community and have dove in head first into the hobby and I'm just obsessed with collecting, playing, reading about it, etc. I've seen a few weird things about Kaneda. I listened to two episodes of his podcast and it was pretty awesome. I was just curious what the controversy was with this guy.
In the past he has gone on the attack against people. For example he called Pat Lawlor Lord Lawlor, and went on a rant. I think that is what got him in trouble / why he "retired" for a couple of months. Positive or negative, I always find him entertaining.
