I think Brad picks good emails. Hasn't picked a single one asking to cast a movie or explain the rules of football in months, at least.

Mafia 3 has some bad/nonexistent checkpoints.
I havent had any issues but I'm only a couple hours in.
You'll understand once you get a ways in.

Wrong about commas, wrong about everything
Do you regularly loose up to 30 minutes of progress? Also, do the enemies in WD2 kill you with one hit?
Out of all the bombcast hosts Brad has read the highest number of my emails so by definition he is bad at picking emails.
I don't think WFH Monday includes the producers anyway. A least a couple times they've tweeted things from the office (and drew records altf1), so I imagine they do studio stuff during that time?

Still waiting for a Powerbombcast.
They already did that though.
Yeah actually
Not only that but the amount of guys you have to take on can varry depending on how many 'can call backup people' live long enough to call backup. Which is nearly instant for them to make the call.
I sent some emails to the Bombcast, not too garbage.
I hope they do, but understandable if they leave it to next week. Might even work out better if a new driver is selected before then.

can someone send an email about new and exciting content?
He has never picked one of mine, so that evens him out.

I sent a batch file that types "DEMO DERBY or GAME TAPES" 40-thousand times. It's up to Brad whether he clicks on it.

I know they're busy and all with GOTY stuff, but I always enjoy the random office videos that come out during this time. I hope we get at least one mailbag or something.
Never heard of it. Do they do a home electrical wiring podcast?
I need incorrect speculation though!

YO WHAT IS THIS NEW VIDEO PLAYER
I DO NOT LIKE CHANGE

You don't want a video player on a video based website that actually works?

See, if you changed the names to "demo doobie" and "Game Vapes" brad would have picked it already.
You will be lucky if they do another F1 podcast again, unless they promised otherwise? (I confess I stopped listening)
Not sure what they would add to people kicking around the same old names and not much to discuss about Rich Guy Says "Fuck It I am Rich enough for Ten Lifetimes and Lewis is a Dick Peace Out!"
It's still mostly that though.

OH MY GOD! Rec Room is AMAZING! The Vive is incredible. My wife, a buddy, and I messed around all afternoon. I really wish I had this week off. VR is incredible!

Does he give out hanime.
🤔
Doom is more likely to give Brad nostalgia boners if you ask me.

Why are the tweeting screeshots of a tweet?

Thankfully not.
Now I need to research all the Vrodeos to see if anything else that's good is out.

Many of my favorite VR things haven't been featured on a VRodeo or are significantly improved since they did.

Ah alright, fair enough.
Reminds me a lot of Bombin' the AM, for better or worse. At its best you get some great analysis from the crew who are real smart people, at worst you have boring stilted skype conversations with everyone agreeing with one another. I think it might be getting a bit better though, the last few eps I listened to I really enjoyed. I think your enjoyment of it really comes down to how much you like to hear Patrick and Austin's #HotTakes.
Need a gif of this.
Also I wonder what Brad considers a good Bombcast email. Cause a lot of the time he seems to pick juvenile ones or ones about food.
The problem with Bombin' in the AM for me was having only two people. Because I like both Patrick and Alex on podcasts but BITA did nothing for me.

Got a rundown of your favorites?
We did Budget Cuts. That was great.
Rec Room is my favorite.
Some of The Lab. My wife is obsessed with the one where you blow stuff up. I loved the look and feel of the space ship one.
I did a little bit of Job Simulator. That seems pretty good.
I have a free zombie game that came with the Vive that I need to check out.
At some point I'll have to spectate a DotA 2 match in VR

That was a show I listened to when there was a big news story or new game I wanted their thoughts on, and I think Waypoint Radio will end up being the same deal for me. It is a much better show than Bombin' the AM though.
I sent in a real banger of an email asking them to rank seasonal chores from best to worst. If it doesn't get read, I'll double dip and send it to the Beastcast.
For the record, my ranking from best to worst is
1. Mowing the lawn
2. Raking leaves
3. Trimming tres
4. Weed-whacking
5. Cleaning gutters
6. Shoveling snow
