EMERGENCY POD: DEEPROOT PINBALL PONZI (feat. Levi Nayman)
Unless you're a pinball enthusiast or keep an extremely close eye on SEC litigation, you've probably never heard the name Deeproot. But just a couple weeks ago, this fledgling startup got slapped with a massive civil lawsuit that sent shockwaves throughout the pinball collector community. Join Josh (@boshj) and Brian (@spocks_brian) as "Crazy" Levi Nayman regales us with a truly bizarre story that spans decades of lost time, millions of dollars of wasted investor money, and something called a PinPod.

Lean manufacturing actually means something. However, what it means is "just-in-time," which means you don't keep a large inventory of parts minimize how much capital you have tied up in those parts at anytime. Which turns out is a total failure during supply chain shocks like Covid
I have zero interest in pinball but I love listening to people talk about something they're passionate about
The pinpod? More like Pindoora's box
