Sean is a web developer whose obsession with the Pac-Man franchise goes back to 1981, when he first played Pac-Man as an 7-year-old who didn't quite understand that you need to eat one of those big, blinking things first before you attempt to eat the ghosts. For one brief moment, he thought he held the world record for Jr. Pac-Man Turbo in October 2012, but it was actually only the second-highest score on record, and even that ranking only lasted under a day.
A music buff, you can see Sean posting not only on AtariAge.com and Aurcade.com as "dauber," but also on various forums that obsess over The Beatles and Brian Wilson. Sean is also cohost of Pie Factory Podcast.
We’re calling this “the next episode” because it’s not the previous episode. It’s also not the first episode nor the last episode, unless something REALLY weird happens. Look…it’s an episode. And we actually remembered to mention our RedBubble store.

Ikey and Mikie, in a most exclusive place, were held up by a mugger, who cut up Ikey’s favorite coat and robbed him, and hit him with a hose. But Mikie grabbed the scoundrel, and punched him in the no-good head repeatedly, until he ran away, so Ikey and Mikie went back to Name That Tune.
One game is about kids who answer trivia questions and run through a chocolate and slime filled obstacle course. The other is about a New Jersey kid who moves to California and is bullied by martial arts jocks. What could the theme be? Only you, the listener, will find out.
Thanks to the response from Listeners Like You™, we decided to go back and address feedback from our previous episode. Your top ten desert island games (assuming your desert island has an adequate power source, of course) and of course all the other heartwarming (or heartburning?) dialog you’re familiar with from Jim’n’Sean are discussed in this Very Special Episode®️.
If each of the hosts of Pie Factory Podcast had his druthers, which games would he’d ruther have in his home arcade over all the other ones? Tune in to this exciting frost-biting candy-throwing installment to hear the gory details!
For this final episode of the year, Sean and Jim talk about the world situation, economics, and their five Christmas wishes. (Wait, was that this episode? Hmmm…maybe that was another…) But what could this week’s theme be? Is it games with pluralized round things in their names? Only The Shadow knows.
While you’re enjoying turkey with your family, why not put Pie Factory Podcast on as your background? Jim’n’Sean discuss two fairly unusual arcade games in episode 117. And so should you.
