Is Stern Pinball releasing too many new pinball machines?
Nov 4

Punk Rock Pinball is our new pinball podcast where we dive into everything we’re learning as we explore this fun, welcoming, and sometimes dramatic world of pinball. Whether it’s figuring out how to buy our first machine, hitting up local tournaments, or just appreciating amazing game art, we’re talking through it all – honestly, casually, and with that same DIY spirit you’ve come to expect from us.
This podcast isn’t about being pinball experts. We’re here to share our journey and grow this hobby we’ve come to love so much. So if you’ve ever been pinball curious, or just want to hang with us as we get nerdy about something new, we’d love to have you along for the ride.
