    Rewind Arcade in Sebastopol California With The Owner Adam | Ep 144

    Eh, Yo! This week we dive into Rewind Arcade in Sebastopol, California. I had the pleasure of interviewing Adam Lam about his arcade Rewind Arcade in the Bay Area of California. I met Adam recently at an Up-Down in Milwaukee and he told me about his arcade. Adam came on the show to share the story of Rewind Arcade. How did Adam get into the space? He started with an arcade-themed Air B&B and later opened Rewind Arcade after he had too many machines.

    Rewind Arcade is the arcade in Sebastopol, California. If you are looking for an arcade with a great selection of pinballs, retro games, and in the future indie games, go check out Rewind Arcade.
