The only person who beats Ryan is none other than Tested's very own @willsmith sitting in at 23,484!

I think Will got on Twitter before Ryan, though it's still crazy that he tweets that much. I bet Ryan over-takes him.

Keep me posted, cuz I ain't following either one of those nuts. Hate tweet spam.

Keep in mind that a lot of those tweets are probably @replies at people you would not follow, meaning you would never see them.

I generally only see a few tweets from Ryan or Will each day - nothing that I would consider spammy. it does not seem excessive compared to some other people on my feed.

Like Whitta? I know that dude hasn't been on Twitter as long as Will and he's got 20k. He'll lap them both within a year's time.

possibly. I don't follow Whitta on Twittah.

I think if I did, I would be witness to too many conversations between him, Will and Ryan for my taste. I sometimes get a hint of it here and there where Ryan will RT part of their conversations.
 
Yeah, if there's a video cooking site with actual personality I'd love to hear about it. Not in the Food Network sense.

The closest thing I can think of is FreezerBurns.com, but it's not exactly cooking haha.

Food Wishes is pretty good: http://foodwishes.blogspot.com/

What all cooking sites ultimately suffer from is how much hearsay and speculation goes into their procedures. I would really like to see a GOOD and personality driven site about molecular gastronomy.

Also, isn't the current Whiskey Media kitchen just a sink and a microwave oven? The biggest problem with them making an actual cooking site would be getting access to a proper kitchen, and even if they could rent one in LA, it'd probably take a lot of their time to actually drive to location to film stuff.
 
I found it to be a perfectly valid answer. :)

Cooking segment idea: Attempt to make knock-off Girl Scout Cookie recipes and have Whiskey staff compare to the real thing.

Honestly though, I'm sure there's a lot of people in the Whiskey Media demographic who either have no idea how to cook and want to learn, or like cooking and want to see a Whiskey-style website made out of it. Would be a great way to both educate and be entertained.

The wiki could be ingredients, recipes, utensils etc.

I give you

Haha, I'm watching Freedom Fighters part 3 and it really got me when Dave was like "Wait, you're already skipping a save? When I drive you never let me do that." And it's so true. Vinny's double standard is insulting Dave's gaming abilities. :lol

Food Wishes looks pretty good. I think this is the guy who does videos for AllRecipes.com, which I like. Thanks!

Yeah, the kitchen situation seems to be a barrier. Tested ended up using Norm's kitchen for their turkey fryer video.


Haha, awesome.
 
TNT tonight is all kinds of awesome. Fun fact from Brad Muir: One of the companies Double Fine pitched Trenched to was SOE. We totally would have gotten a PC version sooner that way! :P
 
They should just go ahead and announce Iron Brigade PC already, they're among friends. Though it is fun to hear them dance around it over and over again.

This is a great TNT, btw. Awesome guests, as usual.

"Mobile stuff..is.. interesting? We need to get all up in there, I think."

No, it was closer to "We need to fucking get up in there."

:p
 
That was fucking great. I love it when Brad Muir is allowed to just talk shit about EVERYTHING. The looks Rice was giving him were amazing.
 
Seemed to be some random Vita talk. I'm not sure why.
The doublefine guys were running late, and they were just filling time until they showed up.

Dave was playing Happy Action Theater while asking the other guys about whether he should buy a 3DS or a Vita, I believe. I only caught the last five/ten minutes of it after I finished making dinner.
 
Brad Muir is pretty much the coolest person ever. If there was one person I could choose to quit their current job and join Giant Bomb, it would be him.

I got the chance to interview him late last year and he really is a joy to talk to. Just such an upbeat, positive and happy guy. After 30 seconds, any nervousness I had had beforehand was gone, really fun guy to chat with.
 
Goodbye thread, you were an awesome thread...
