Pinball collectors, manufacturers & players alike are known as PINHEADZ…their stories, experiences and opinions form the Pinheadz Podcast! Recorded in Australia’s national capital, the Pinheadz PODcast is a uniquely Australian look at the pinball industry - past, present & future.
2017…the year in pinball wrapped up in a neat little package! Just in time for Christmas!
It hasn’t been this difficult to decide who gets our hard earned dollar for at least 2 decades. With Jersey Jack announcing ‘Pirates Of The Caribbean’ Pinball 2018 & STERN announcing ‘Guardians Of The Galaxy’ Pinball…are we witnessing the beginning of the first true pinball battle since Bally/Williams VS Data East?
Join Pinball Collector – Rod Cuddihy, Pin Hunter – Gary Christiansen & Pinball Technician – Pintech Stevie for a unique perspective on the greatest pastime on earth. It’s Americana from Down Under – it’s The Pinheadz Pinball PODcast!
Join Rod, Gaz & Pintech Stevie as they explore PINBALL NEWS & LIFE from the collectors, players & builders.
Episode 23 takes a look at the big releases & developments of 2017…STERN Pinball’s ‘Star Wars’ & ‘Aerosmith’. Spooky Pinball’s ‘Rob Zombie’s spook Show International’, ‘Alice Cooper’ & ‘The Jetsons’. PLUS a parade of boutique titles.
