PlaidMouse Posted February 6 Share Posted February 6 Hey @Dauber and @Inky! How are you guys doing? How's everyone else doing? I've been catching up on some of the older episodes for the Pie Factory Podcast. Really enjoyed the one on Krull (one of my favorite movies) and Q*Bert. Also enjoyed Defender and Robotron 2084 (cue the sound clip!). Anyway, keep up the great work guys! We all love you. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inky Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 Well, we're prepping our new episode. Hopefully it'll be out in a few days. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dauber Posted February 9 Author Share Posted February 9 Rumors of Pie Factory Podcast's episode being "out in a few days" have been highly...CONFIRMED, because episode 135 is out, yo. Welcome to the 2023, they're calling it this year. Sean and Jim offer up their thoughts and experiences on these particular games because, well, they're arcade video games. That's why we're all here, right? We hope you enjoy this episode. Jim and Sean believe it's the best episode they've produced all year. https://piefactorypodcast.wordpress.com/2023/02/09/episode-135-assault-and-vindicators/ 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris+++ Posted February 13 Share Posted February 13 Holy smokes...you can get to Christmas Eve in Toyshop Trouble? I love that game, so I play it quite a bit, and yet I've never made it that far. Great job. (And the duck is always welcome. It never fails to make me laugh in a manner that causes anyone nearby to nervously get some distance from me.) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dauber Posted February 20 Author Share Posted February 20 (edited) I think the key thing with Toyshop Trouble is if you have any single-paint items on the screen when things get crazier, clear them out first. Then go for whatever color is common among the unpainted toys on the screen.} Another hint -- on days in which the joystick is the featured toy (I think December 13 is the first), go straight for the black paint as soon as the gameplay starts. For whatever reason, a crap ton of joysticks get cranked out right away. Edited February 20 by Dauber 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris+++ Posted February 20 Share Posted February 20 Thanks for the tips! I'll be returning to it after work today (it's the sort of game one feels like playing due to simply talking about it). 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dauber Posted March 31 Author Share Posted March 31 Happy spring, Pie Factorians! We hope you spring…fast…and, uhh…we can't make a really bad pun out of Exerion right now, but…well, just listen! https://piefactorypodcast.wordpress.com/2023/03/30/episode-136-exerion-and-fast-freddie/ 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris+++ Posted April 22 Share Posted April 22 Great audio submission, PlaidMouse! And I really dig it when people share their other languages in a conversational context. There's something...I don't know, warm about it. That sounds a bit corny, but I'm having a hard time articulting myself this morning for some reason. Anyway, more Japanese, please! (Are you from Japan, or just fluent? I'm only curious; I certainly don't mean to be nosy.) 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dauber Posted April 29 Author Share Posted April 29 Episode 137 is out, so listen to it NOW! Chop-chop! (See what we did there?) Silk Worm, Super Cobra, Midwest Gaming Classic, geography, and other such topics are discussed in this mammoth blockbuster installment of Pie Factory Podcast. https://piefactorypodcast.wordpress.com/2023/04/28/episode-137-super-cobra-and-silk-worm/ 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glad to hear that you have recovered Shawn. Oddly enough, my wife and I visited the French Quarter during March and yes, we made it to Cafe Du Monde. I don't mind beignets, but growing up in NYC, I prefer zeppoles. 😉 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm only curious; I certainly don't mean to be nosy.) Thank you very much @Chris+++! It's very encouraging to know that you liked it. I unfortunately missed episode 137 and just turned in an e-mail response for episode 138 (I have an addendum here @Dauber and @Inky, please see below). Hopefully I'll have another audio submission for episode 139 with more Japanese (and maybe some Esperanto). Speaking of more Japanese, I was just in Las Vegas, NV and got to use a lot of Japanese with my wife and her friends. We were there for the Professional Asian Pilots Association Expo 2023 (https://www.asianpilots.org/). I also got to visit the Pinball Museum with our 16-year-old son! If those things weren't cool enough, I got the high score on Mario Bros.! If you ever see "DCT" on an arcade, that's me, PlaidMouse! 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris+++ Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 Damn; great job! That's a hard game. Thanks for the cool pics. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dauber Posted May 22 Author Share Posted May 22 I gotta know...how big is that sign in the first pic??? It looks frickin' humongous, like something you could see from a mile or two away! Is it really that big, or is it just the angle? (The mrs. and I went to Vegas last year, but I didn't get to the HoF.) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dauber Posted June 1 Author Share Posted June 1 (edited) EPISODE 138 - Front Line and SubRoc-3D For the first time EVER, the guys from Pie Factory are back with discussion on the games you see in the title. A couple of shooty-powy games. One from the earth, one from the water. (They're trying to get shooty-powy games from the other two ancient elements, too; patience, friends, patience.) If nothing else, this is CERTAINLY the very last episode of the podcast to be released during the month of May 2023, but we make no guarantees. https://piefactorypodcast.wordpress.com/2023/05/31/episode-138-front-line-and-subroc-3d/ Edited June 1 by Dauber 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris+++ Posted June 13 Share Posted June 13 I didn't want you guys to think I had signed up on the Discord site, popped my head in and then never saw any reason to post. I'm having problems with Discord at the moment, as it wants me to "claim" my account, but rejects my e-mail address as "already in use" because I signed up on Ferg's server a couple of years ago. I've always had problems logging in to Discord, frankly, so this is nothing new. I actually think it would be great fun to join the Discord-based Fest for PFP Fans (formerly PFPFest, of course, until Hyde filed that Cease and Desist). Hopefully I'll figure it out at some point. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(The mrs. and I went to Vegas last year, but I didn't get to the HoF.) Hi @Dauber! It's the angle (note: no angels were involved; at least, none that I was aware of; please forgive my poor sense of humor). The sign is pretty big, probably 2-3 times bigger than your average fast food chain sign. You can see it at least 1/2 mile off. Sorry for the late reply to your question.

PlaidMouse Posted July 30 Share Posted July 30 Hello everyone! As you can see, I'm getting caught up on the thread. How's everything going @Inky, @Dauber, and everyone else interested in the best arcade podcast? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dauber Posted August 6 Author Share Posted August 6 I'm busy but fine! As for those who are interested in the best arcade podcast, I feel bad for them because there hasn't been an episode of No Quarter for years. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A classy reply, but I like Pie Factory (and Ten Pence, or that matter) WAY more than No Quarter. That show never did it for me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dauber Posted August 9 Author Share Posted August 9 Episode 139: Shootin' the breeze and burning our throatsSummer schedules can be a beast. And believe me, we have tried to alter that beast, but we find ourselves standing in the shadows of that beast.
