Jamie Burchell joins Retro Ralph and Cale Hernandez for a wide-ranging, honest discussion about some of the biggest conversations happening in pinball right now.

We break down Pokémon pinball and talk about what media day was really like, the vibe at Stern, the energy in the room, and whether this release feels like Stern getting some of their mojo back. Does Pokémon put Stern back on top? Is this the reset moment they needed heading into this year?

We also take a hard look at American Pinball. Should they consider a rebrand? What exactly does “reimagined classics” mean? And what’s going on with the new logo?

The TWIPYs get unpacked as well. What happened with the viewership? Why did it feel so quiet compared to the voting turnout?

Plus we discuss YouTube monetization, the business side of content creation, hobby drama, and what we see coming next.

If you enjoy thoughtful, unfiltered pinball conversations, this is an episode you don’t want to miss.
