    No Paul Barnett is bad, but I'm hoping that there will be no Leigh Alexander to balance it out.

    Quoting as hard as I possibly can for fuckin' truth.

    I can't stress this enough, either. She was TERRIBLE last year! The fact that her inane shrieking is what I remember most about Giant Bomb's E3 2010 is a crime.

    I heard Jeff drop two names on the TNT show - Rich Gallup and Carrie Gouskos.

    The only thing better than that would be having Greg Kasavin there as well. The more I think about it, that could actually happen.

    I imagine Leigh won't be on the show, not so much because some of the community doesn't like her, but because her antics angered other guests.

    I don't mean to assume, but given Ryan's duties as host, it seemed he wasn't too fond of her either. They may be friendly in general, but she does not do well with a microphone, and I think the crew recognizes that.

    I'm really hoping there will be some Leigh Alexander once again this year, she was very entertaining last year. And I know it can't happen, but would be amazing to have the McElroy brothers on one night. GB X MBMBaM, ultimate podcast.

    It might be in the pages of comments but I'm lazy:

    Will the video from the nightly shows be uploaded to the site for viewing later (or downloading as video podcasts like TNT, etc)?

    It's this time of year again:

    Howto extract audio from a video in SECONDS...

    ...so GB-users don't have to wait for hours for a podcast and you GB-staff don't have to work til 4am (poor Drew?):

    ffmpeg -i giantbomb_house.raw (or .mpeg .mpeg4 etc, etc, doesn't matter) -vn -acodec mp3 -ab 192k giantbombhouse_audio.mp3

    you can use ffmpeg on OS X for quick transcoding, instead using the bloated Final Cut Pro software. Video transcoding = equally easy - all works also from a GNU/Linux Live USB Stick OS. (ffmpeg on bsd or linux 2.6.x and 3.0.1 scales great on manycores, btw = quicker)

    If they broadcast it over justintv (I'm 99.99% sure that they will), the video will be archived on there, just like all of their streamed stuff.

    Too bad I'm going to be up at 5:00 AM everyday, thus meaning I will not get to see any of the awesome live stuff. I have to be on my game this week for work. Bummer. I'll be catching up a day late. Painting Warhammer 40K minis and rocking it out to GB stuff!

    I appreciate the in-depth explanation, man, but holy hell that is complicated. That stuff might sound like second nature to you, but I think I'll just wait for whenever the iTunes feed updates. haha
