The Brokentoken Classic Arcade and Pinball Podcast is one of my favorite shows because it covers all things related to arcade and pinball games. As someone who loves these classic games, this podcast is a must-listen. The hosts, Brett and Whitney, are extremely knowledgeable and passionate about the subject matter. They cover a wide range of topics including arcade game repair, console gaming, pinball machines, and even random musings like plumbing. The show is filled with humor and entertaining anecdotes that make it enjoyable to listen to.
One of the best aspects of this podcast is the depth of knowledge that Brett and Whitney bring to each episode. They provide in-depth reviews on various gaming equipment like multimeters, high voltage probes, 3D printers, trailers, ratchet straps, and more. They also share their personal experiences as arcade collectors, providing valuable insights and advice for others in the hobby. Additionally, they discuss current news in the gaming industry and share their thoughts on upcoming releases.
Another great aspect of this podcast is the friendly atmosphere created by the hosts. Their Kentucky accents add a unique charm to the show, making it feel like you're listening to friends chatting about their shared hobby. They have a great rapport with each other and with their listeners. The podcast is family-friendly, making it accessible to all ages.
While there aren't many negative aspects to this podcast, one potential downside is its length. The episodes tend to be quite long, sometimes spanning several hours. This may be overwhelming for listeners who prefer shorter podcasts or have limited time for listening. However, if you can get through a full episode in one sitting, it's definitely worth it.
In conclusion, The Brokentoken Classic Arcade and Pinball Podcast is an exceptional show for anyone interested in arcade and pinball games. With its informative content, entertaining banter between hosts Brett and Whitney, and friendly atmosphere, this podcast provides hours of enjoyable listening. Whether you're a seasoned arcade collector or just starting out, there's something for everyone in this podcast. I highly recommend subscribing if you want to stay informed and entertained in the world of classic gaming.
