## Resource

In this episode of Flip N Out Pinball Podcast , hosts Ken Cromwell and Greg Bone take on some of the most commonly repeated pinball myths...the "facts" that get passed around so often they start to feel true. Pulling from listener feedback, the conversation covers misconceptions around nudging, maintenance, playfield care, mods, play count, and machine value, while offering real-world perspective on what actually matters. The episode also explores the evolving pinball landscape and why the hobby is ultimately about enjoyment, not necessarily investment.
