Episode 25 - Operator Spotlight: Inner Orbit
Support the show: https://ko-fi.com/wedgeheadpodcast
In the latest addition of our Operator Spotlight series, Alan speaks with John Dozier of Inner Orbit pinball about his pinball route based in Springfield Missouri. John began operating pinball machines about 10 years ago, and was drawn in due to a familiar refrain of the modern pinball operator - there just weren't any good machines to play in his area.
Hear about John's move from player, to part time operator, to full time operator, and now finally a partner in the 1984 Arcade in Branson.
We discuss the region, how to start a route, and why sometimes the best person to bring pinball to your town just might be YOU.
...we do swear sometimes though.
