About this listen

 Hosted by Tim Owens, owner of Reclaim Arcade, and joined by Collins Wetzel, the Open Coin Door Podcast takes you behind the scenes of running a retro arcade in Fredericksburg, Virginia. From discussions of how certain games are found and selected, challenges that integrating food and beverage can bring, to how we plan and execute events, this podcast peels back the curtain and provides insight into the world of operating such a unique entertainment venue.Reclaim Arcade

    013 - Emo Night, Jello Shots & The Mixtape Revolution
    Nov 6 2025

    Halloween Emo Night blew up. The arcade was packed, the costumes were incredible, the specialty cocktails and jello shots sold out fast, and the energy was unreal. We recap the night, introduce our new Mixtape Karaoke format, and get ready to head down to North Carolina for our second Flippers pinball tournament.
