i dearly hope one of em does a DS2 playthrough in the future, or even something akin to load our last souls
drew is starting a new f1 racing/racing in general premium podcast.
Unprofessional Friday stream has started!
So far it seems like Jeff, Brad, and Vinny are the only people available.
So far Jeff has had to switch cameras by leaning forward and pressing tricaster buttons from a giant control board thing on the table
Super excited for the future of the site with Dan and Jason, Patrick with his crazy Chicago crew, and GBEast getting off the ground. In honor of the new hires, and the unfortunate anniversary of Ryan's passing, let's all be super cool today.
Patrick wrote up a thing [URL="http://www.giantbomb.com/profile/patrickklepek/blog/july-3-2014/106396/"]here[/URL].

Goddamn I miss Ryan so much :(
So who saw that big non-controversy about both of the new employees being white dudes.

I did. It was fucking dumb.

Speaking of that, [url=http://www.giantbomb.com/articles/letter-from-the-editor-07-02-2014/1100-4948/]Jeff wrote a message the other day about it.[/url]

I wouldn't mind some more diversity in their team, but I completely trust that they chose the best people for the job. Especially since Dan Ryckert is responsible for one of my favorite Bombcast moments.

Jason seems cool, but he was kinda quiet during the podcast. I wonder if he'll be making regular appearances on the podcast, or just Dan.

Jason had a sick burn during the Unfinished video for the Forest they put up today. Also I think Brad and Dan make an excellent quick look combo.
As for the controversy, the only real problem was the backlash to some people criticizing the site's hiring practices. They're allowed to have an opinion without being ripped to shreds by a horde of people being shitty in Giant Bomb's name.

Did they take the "What did you play in the last week" part out of the Bombcast? With more people it makes sense but it makes it a bit less personal imo. Also who will be the small business guy now that Vinny is out?
[QUOTE=Scot;45284636]So who saw that big non-controversy about both of the new employees being white dudes.[/QUOTE]
Did people complain or something. Must have missed it. Not that it really matters. Just dumb people being dumb.
I love Giant Bomb, sadly I joined a month or two after Ryan's passing. So I never got to really see him in action. Still, he seemed like a great guy.

No, they still go around the room asking "So what's your past week been like?" Although it's become more and more off-topic in the past few years. I remember some podcasts would go on for over an hour before they actually started talking about video games.
Is DOTA 2 a game about freedom?
