The 12 Days of Balls is upon us! Each episode features a different pinball guest and we get to know their balls. Do they believe in aliens? What was their favorite pinball thing this year? What...
Highlights
- Joel's brother John recently moved down and started streaming with him, which has been his favorite pinball thing this year

- Content creators do not receive kickbacks from manufacturers like Stern or Jersey Jack Pinball
- Zach Sharpe (Flip N Out Pinball distributor) received only a T-shirt from Barrels of Fun for promotional coverage of their game
- Keith Elwin's next game is expected to be high quality and is Joel's primary anticipated release for 2024-2025
Notable quotes
“My favorite pinball thing, honestly, is probably my brother now streaming with me... He's never been American Pinball Pinball Pursuit... having him a part of that has been really a ton of fun.”
“I would much rather deescalate the situation... I like that I would rather when whether it's in pinball, friends, family, whatever it is to feel like I have the potential ability to step in and deescalate and show respect and communicate that.”
“My only grievance is obviously this last week, last two weeks, everything going on with the Twippies Awards... There's no good old boys club... it's genuinely just a group of creators that have a discord and have fun together.”
“I would love to get a kickback from any of them. But we don't nobody does any of that and it's just we do this because it's fun”
“Keith Elwin's next game, there's no way it's not good... But yeah, besides that, I don't know... maybe there's been rumors that Spike 3 has to come out and that's something that I'm excited about”
