That's what gets me... you absolutely do NOT have to own machines, be a tourney player, be good at pinball, operate a route, fix machines, etc. etc. to have a podcast about pinball...

but, if none of those, you should, at least, oh, I dunno...play pinball? If you don't know what a fan layout is, you aren't playing pinball that often.

Certainly you're welcome to do a podcast, but gosh, why? Weird way to ego trip but to each their own I guess

For real!? That's priceless! I wasnt around when he got booted from here, and I've not kept close tabs on the fella, or I'm sure I'd have heard about this. It takes a lot to get kicked out of a venue, I feel kinda bad now, imma lay off the guy

The story was brought up unasked for from a second hand recollection, which can unintentionally be inaccurate, so I appreciated the link. It is good to get info from "primary" sources if something like that is brought up.

I also am gonna disagree with your point about making someone "appear foolish, again." People can and do change, most often for the better. It sounds like that seems to be the case here, at least going off the accounts of him having made amends with some individuals.

Your implication seems to be that bringing up past behavior is just ragging on a person, I could be wrong? but I feel that we are all reasonable adults here, and to be honest more so see the positive change in actions and growth, and hope others do too.

Everyone is human, and makes mistakes. Were all imperfect, recognizing growth here is my take away, fwiw.
