We are back… kind of. Unfortunately Tom is super busy and wasn’t able to record with us but Travis and Joel sat down and talked some pinball. Travis shared his experience of Pinball at the beach as well as some initial gameplay on Spooky Pinball’s Evil Dead. Joel and Travis deep dive on their overall thoughts with Stern’s Dungeon & Dragons. They talk about it all, from gameplay to code and everything in between. Lastly they briefly mention what’s coming around the corner so buckle up!

Happy New Year! We were invited to Stern to check out their latest pinball machine Dungeons & Dragons: The Tyrant’s Eye. Ralph was also in attendance at the Media Day so we asked him to join so we could discuss our thoughts on the game. Buckle up for another episode of Tom being great, Joel being Joel and Travis being… well Travis.

Thanksgiving has come and gone, Christmas is just around the corner, and with that comes Travis and a stupid hat. Tonight we had a fun conversation about Metallica, Evil Dead, the WPPR Copper, and some of our overall thoughts on pinball modes and code. But the real question is… WHERE IS THE PINBALL CUP? Enjoy the laughs

We are back from Chicago Pinball Expo and we had a BLAST. In this episode we recapped all the stuff we played at Expo as well as some of the people we met. Travis, Tom and Joel all rip on different pinball machines which will essentially kill all future sales of them. Honesty it is just 2+ hours of us chatting pinball and making fun of each other. Enjoy!

Here we go again back with another episode before Chicago Pinball Expo.

We did hone in on our thoughts of the Alice in Wonderland reveal streams, our experience with X-Men and Avatar, as well as what we are looking forward to seeing and playing at Expo. Buckle up and enjoy!

Back and better than ever. Today we chatted about X-Men’s reveal and stream as well Avatar’s reveal and stream. Joel had the opportunity to travel to JJP’s Media Day so Travis and Tom grilled him with some questions about it. We dove deep into Avatar’s code and gameplay as well as had a fun conversation about themes. Enjoy as we had some pretty hot takes!

WE ARE BACK… AGAIN. Once again we are very sorry for the delay, but we were waiting on a reveal that didn’t happen, as well as enough news to justify anyone wanting to hear the three of us chat it up. We discussed Haggis, the JAWS: The Revenge Challenge Mode, our favorite pinball modes, tough tournament setups, and other fun pinball conversation. Enjoy the laughs!

Triple Drain Pinball Podcast Episode 52: Wiping Buns

Hosts: Joel Engelberth, Tom Graf & Travis Murie

Stern sent out the invite and we accepted! We’ve got a shorter episode than usual but still a fun one. We discussed our visit to the Stern factory as well as our experiences playing all three models of John Wick. That took us into a discussion about modern code complexity and how to best communicate what to do the player. Travis talks FunHouse and we had an unexpected guest. Enjoy!
