Episode 47 - Gottlieb vs. Paramount Pictures

Support the show: https://ko-fi.com/wedgeheadpodcastIn this episode, our friend and member of our local Portland Pinball scene, Nate Tayloe joins us on the show to educate us on the weird case where Gottlieb chose to sue Paramount Pictures over alleged copyright and trademark infringement due to the inclusion of Gottlieb's "Silver Slugger" pinball machine in the 2000 movie, "What Women Want" starring Mel Gibson and Helen Hunt.Nate learned about this case while he was in law school, and he wanted to bring this story of the case to our show, and discuss the nebulous issue of copyright in other forms of art.We discussed in the episode a website where all known inclusions of pinball machines appearing in film are listed, but Nate couldn't remember the website name in the moment.  But in case you're interested, here's a link to it: https://www.pingeek.com/film/film.htmAs always though, this is an adult show and we sometimes use naughty words to express ourselves.Support the show
