Hosts: Joel Engelberth, Tom Graf and Travis Murie Guest: Keith Elwin We like talking pinball and pinball design so who better to invite onto the show than Keith Elwin himself. We went into this episode with no agenda and just wanted to talk game theory with one of the greats. We chatted about physical design, rules and mode design as well as the perceived value in a pinball machine today. I know I loved the conversation and we hope you guys do too. How we have made it to 70 episodes I don’t really know but thanks for all the support!!
