That Porpentine article was pretty cool. Never heard of her before but Ultra Business Tycoon seems really neat and weird.
List of things that stop the Bombcast:
Quick Look EX: Broken Age
I tend to avoid EX QLs, but I'll tune into this one... Oh geez, one hour long.
Um, I didn't miss this live at some point, did I?

Man 1 hour? Isn't the first part of broken age like 3 and a half hours long?
Yeah, that QL has to be like a third of the first part of the game.
Need my bombcast fix before I walk my dog! Don't want to be entitled since I know how much work everyone puts in, but damn does it suck when the episode goes up at 2am ET.
EDIT: Don't want to make a second post, but I did want to also say that I think I prefer Bombin to be just Alex and Patrick. I always get bored when they bring the devs in with rare exceptions. Too bad for me I guess.

Goddamn it's actually hard to concentrate on the game and the conversations at the same time.
Too much talking over this time.

We have until 3 AM PST until it's technically late.
I'm guessing we'll get it around 8 PST

This Broken Age QLEX is fucking fantastic. One of the absolute best parts of GB is the ability to bring in developers and have them just relax and feel free from the PR cycle. Despite all the snark another Lang/Muir appearance seems to generate, the ability to humanize these guys who are behind the games we love so much is such a unique and special part of GB.
Yeah, I barely paid attention to the game since I was focusing so much on the conversation.

"Podcast is recorded but I need to drive home before it can get processed and posted. Should be up around 9-ish, I guess?"
Midnight east coast confirmed.

Yep. Schafer is always a delight to listen to and he sound so natural chatting with the GB guys.

Didn't they record today because they had yesterday off? I always expect a late Bombcast when they record on Tuesdays.

Say what you will about Luigi, but at least he made the Bombcasts run on time.

Schafer is always great on GB. His personality seems to blend well with the crew.

"Not a whole lot of news going on right now"- Jeff just now. That's the Giant Bomb I know and love.

spoilers for podcast
Jeff says there's about 45 min of dark souls talk. They totally forgot about Nintendo news tho
Yeah right after he realized they didn't talk about Nintendo at all in the news segment lol.

It's not so bad when you've played through the game already. It also becomes spoiler-free (of which the QL is rife with)!

He gets Karma in that last Spelunky with the scepter hijinx.
OUCH.
Whuh? I usually clean my plate with their cast chatter, but that was a biggie.
I don't go to GB for news anyway but that's kind of embarrassing.

I guess as an actual quick look of the game its not great but its an awesome Schafer interview
They should have just interviewed the man and cut in game footage later. Would be better for us who haven't finished playing the game yet.

I love that I just spent, what, an hour? just listening to Dave and Jeff shooting the shit in the car. Also, I miss Dave.
To be fair, I "watched" it by just listening to it, was great that way except for a few bits where they talk about the visuals.
Man, listening to Dave talk to Jeff on Mixlr about site and database stuff is actually kinda sad. He is such an ethical/community-first designer with all his site decisions (even more impressive since he had a financial stake at risk), something no corporate would ever approve. Really miss him popping up on GB stuff.
Lowering Wii U estimated sales, Iwata not retiring, Nintendo not interested in bringing their games to mobile, Stocks dropping, etc.

The mixlr stream is better than the podcast everyone is waiting for #realtalk
Aww I missed this part care to go into the details? I was recently messing around with the giant bomb api for a silly site.

Oh. Well, I wouldn't consider them not being interested in mobile news. I dont think anyone was actually thinking they would go that route. Also, I dont think GB cares that much for sale figures. I could be wrong, but I get the feeling they just dont care.

And then the LORD David Bowie saith to his Son, Jonny Depp: 'Go, and spread my image amongst the cosmos. For every living thing is in anguish and only the LIGHT shall give them reprieve.'
The Broken Age QL made me remember that I had a Day of the Tentacle triangle box until a few years ago, when I let my mom toss out all my game boxes. Kill me.
