About this episode

After last week’s man cave discussion, we (Tom) decided we should continue the conversation with a frank talk about Arcade Games. We run through some of our favorite arcade games of all time, take a trip down memory lane to The Ground Round, and Tom shares his tales of arcade humiliation and triumph that travel the world all the way to Tokyo, Japan.
