I might have to check back on kinda funny again. I'll give it a while for the alt right fan base to leave following their video game leader Colin.
This conversation has me thinking I can't wait to see what's next with the new hires. East had hit it's stride. Though I love Brad and Jeff and enjoy everything they've been doing I look forward to the burst of energy the new hires bring. I'm really hoping for the first female duder.

Danswers or some GB Podcast is about the only time I've 'kinda' liked Gregg.
Piggybacking on this, was Jeff G ever on a beastcast with Austin or did that overlap never happen?

The absolute state of Colin Moriarty. Unbelievable hubris.

Yeah it was a pretty big contrast with the recent Bombcasts, which have not been great. GB East + Jeff is a good team. Shame about where that split left West.

I think Davison is smart enough to want equity in anything he does - I assume he owns a piece of Glixel - so yeah. lol
But he made a website that he was forced to sell to IGN by investors (and IGN killed the site like a year later), so it was just funny to see him being the face of a similar purchase.
I guess the best they can do is get money for the three PAX shows and the occassional trip to game events. I know Ryan's passing affected their PAX Australia trip, but did they ever go to Australia after that?

Danny being 'excited' for Colin's 'new adventure'. Hm, sure, OK if that's what you're into I guess.
I would say so.
Are Danny and Colin buddies?
Danny did a bunch of stuff with KF and they are both "Part of the big Patreon family".
It's happened a few times recently, so it wouldn't shock me if he just wanted an out so he can be a dick in public.
so you're saying Danny is a white supremacist by association?
... and Drew is friend with Danny, oh god

You can still find those?
The key is to have him be delrious from lack of sleep and jet lag.
Congrats on the BestBuy.ca Switch haha..

Yup. Happened to be on their site in the right 28 seconds.
Mate, it's a 5 and half hour flight with a 3 hour time difference.
The key is to have him be around people that excite him.
It's WW2 all over again just a daisy chain of alliances. All is lost, friends, the internet had a not so good run.

Wrong about commas, wrong about everything
It might be cause I listen to the bombcasts on the go and don't sit down to listen/watch them but I didn't really notice any drops in quality.

I had that same "problem" this week's Beast in the East did where like once I triggered a substory I had to see it through to the end and pushed the main stuff farther away.
Define quality?
If your expectation of GB West podcasts are to be informative gaming talk, then yeah, perhaps the quality is the same.
I got on the train during Arrow Pointing Down and I just want to hear dumb talk about energy drinks, party houses, meeting famous rappers and how much influence terrible car movies have on the gang.

I don't know what that has to do with anything, I literally have been following the gang since the 90's and I love all that stuff, just because they haven't talked about it lately doesn't mean they are forsaking their heritage. but I'm sorry you have been disappointed in the bombcast as of late, opinions are just that, so you are not any more right or wrong then me. I just have been enjoying it as much as ever.
mad love google, I use you to find unseemly things all the time. Thanks for that bro.
My point was that I preferred their brand of their talking about a Tiger Woods Gatorade for 35 minutes more than in-depth commentary on videogames.
That was their differentiator and every time they revert away from it I get slightly disappointed that the thing I wanted doesn't happen.
I think the poster meant that particular episode for the first time.

I've been listening to a lot of 2009/2010 Bombcasts recently (for reasons I don't entirely understand) and I think it's hard to deny that the modern Bombcast is a way lower-energy affair compared to that era. The quality of game talk hasn't changed much but the older casts are a lot quippier and everyone plays off each other's jokes a lot more. It also benefits from the fact that every week there's usually a game that most of the crew has played, so there's a lot more back and forth conversation instead of Jeff monologuing about the week's big release and Jason putting in his 5 minutes about the anime game he's been playing.
The last Beastcast.
I think it's just due to lineup changes. Like Brad and Jeff are pretty low energy dudes and really only pep up when they have someone to play off of like a Vinny or Dan. They just need some more energy in the room.
Oh. Gotcha.

Cloth Map hit $10K. So awesome, so happy for Drew!

Yes you nailed the obvious thing that everybody assumed it would be.
Somebody's jealous of this modern Nostradamus
He talked about how exhausted he was during the PAX East panel. Worked all day. Stayed in the office until it was time for his red eye and then straight to the east office to work.
