Notable quotes
“There was this high-pitched, keening scream that circled all over the country. And that was the souls of all the Halo fans dying as they saw what a good television adaptation of a video game could be like.”
“I'm already doing two podcasts that cover pinball. I feel like I'm oversaturated, as is, in the hobby.”
“When there are reveals, at least major game reveals, those tend to be the best performing episodes”
“Your cabinet was sitting on a park bench smoking a cigarette with a pile of cigarettes beneath it, just staring at the ground, not talking to anybody as they jogged past.”
“This is a snapshot of exactly this isn't like counting 2022 episodes with like listens that have happened so far in 2023. This is January through December 31st, 2022 and where things stood.”
