Modern Man in Search of High Scores

In this episode Lawrence and Dean hit the road for one of the strangest pinball pilgrimages yet: a visit to the legendary Winchester Mystery House, where staircases lead nowhere, doors open into walls, and somehow there’s a pinball machine based on it. It's also time to catch 'em all in arcade and pinball news.** Show Notes **The fight title Dean mentioned: https://youtu.be/tVWtyXQhdHQ** Legal Stuff **Break by AbbynoiseMusic from #Uppbeathttps://uppbeat.io/t/abbynoise/breakLicense code: 2TE8B1NCXZ0IHVXE Hosted on Acast.
