Nice!  I hadn't known they put the shows up for download later on - I snagged the lot of them and will listen to them in my car.

Noone throw rotten veggies please, but what is "Topcast"?  Is there a TV show or channel this is on?

Front page news item :)

It would help if I posted the link to the front page news item though, wouldn't it.

It's an Internet audio-cast involving Pinball topics, usually interviewing someone from the industry. :)

To pinballjim:

Really??
Pretty harsh words for Steve, and I can only assume you are a repeater of what someone has fed you as truth or factual.  You certainly could not know “first-hand” that Steve pushes blame off on others for problems he encountered in his career.  I mean, Really?
You and your career are of course being studied and you are being interviewed for your genius and accomplishments, right?  Sure you are.  Really? 

I’m sure you were at the 2010 Pacific Pinball Exposition in northern California to receive your well-deserved accolades for your contributions of engineering, design, and electronic genius. NO?

I do not think anyone missed you either. 

Not only is Steve an accomplished designer / engineer, but he raised and supported his family, and he proudly served his country in the Coast Guard, and one year of that service was in Vietnam.

And you? 
Really?

Monty…
