About this Episode

Billy Mitchell was once the undisputed king of arcade gaming. Back in the 1980s and 90s, he held world records in classic games like Donkey Kong, Pac-Man, and Centipede. With his signature mullet and American flag tie, Mitchell was the face of competitive gaming before e-sports was even a thing. But in recent years, Mitchell's legacy has come under scrutiny. There are allegations that some of his high scores were faked using emulators rather than achieved on original arcade hardware. The controversy has sparked lawsuits and debate about whether Mitchell is still worthy of his "King of Kong" title.

Hey guys im patrick from florida and unfortunately I was recently incarcerated in pasco county jail for a few months and in that county jail they supplied all the inmates with securis tablets and one of the best features of them was they were loaded with all kinds of podcasts including yours... not the entire bibliography but around ¾ of them and I want to thank you for getting me through one of the hardest times of my life and let you know that I turned as many people as I could onto your podcast. Thank you for bringing me a laugh and making the time go by just a little better. I'm a fan for life!

I know this video is more than 2 months old but I have to comment cuz it was frustrating me to no end. Pinball Wizard is from a musical of sorts that The Who wrote called Tommy. Tommy is the deaf, mute and blind kid! Doubt this will be seen by y'all. Love you guys!

There isn't a question about it. He did. The evidence is indisputable.
