Episode 318: Paul Englert

Jeff Teolis interviews 14-year-old Paul Englert, a rising competitive pinball player from Germany who is climbing the IFPA rankings with exceptional skill despite his age. The conversation covers Paul's rapid development since age 6, his tournament performance, his preferences for games like Guns N' Roses and Swords of Fury, his skepticism of achievement-based systems like Stern Connected, and his goals to compete at the World Championship and IFP18 in Germany. Teolis discusses the challenge of attracting younger players to pinball and explores what themes might appeal to the next generation.
