Welcome to episode 5 of Basement Dad's Pinball Podcast where we bring on special guest, Amanda from Freeplay Pinball Podcast to discuss our dream theme... Harry Potter.

All the spoilers. If you were waiting to read or watch the series... DO NOT LISTEN TO THIS EPIDODE. We discuss all things Harry Potter and spoil the heck out of the entire series.

But if you want to hear about this monster license and thought on:
- The history of HP licensing
- Is Harry Potter really that BIG of a License?
- Which manf. has the license and who would we "want" to have the license?
- Books vs. Movies... which theme would be best?
- What if there is limited assets?
- How could theme and game progression work well?

And more!

Happy MLK holiday everyone!  Episode 3 is here!  This week, we have MJ, one of the very few people in the world who can claim to be a "Jaws Expert" from "Let's Jaws for a Minute" podcast (100+ hours of Jaws movie discussion) in-house to discuss the Great White Shark in the Room:

 - The fact that Jaws does not eat any balls
 - The pinball community acting like children unhappy with their XMAS presents
 - Paul's Disappointment
 - Riots in Venice
 - Keith Elwin games, Pro vs. Premium
 - Dwight's divisive playfield multipliers 
 - James Bond... again.
 - That Premium Jaws translite, woof.

And quite a bit more!
