Drew's a good dude.
Do you enjoy Drew's awkwardness on the Bombcast?
I mean, I could probably find a better way to say this. But if I HAD to try and find something positive out of the tragic loss of Ryan, it would be that Drew has become more prominent on the site. I've always liked Drew and think he fits in real well on the Bombcast. He's more down to earth, kind of the every man. He knows his shit about games, not quite to the level of Jeff, Brad, or Vinny, but that's a good thing. Adds a unique perspective. Plus he usually does the craziest things with his free time. And he had two of the best UPF games, the llama love-sim and the airplane sim. I love Drew.
Honestly my biggest worry is that once the site does get a few new people on board then Drew will kind of go back to being the background guy.
I enjoy drew very much in any giant bomb content. I would not say awkward but more of a silent confidence in not needing to fill dead air or try too hard to top the more animated cast.
Drew is a prince among duders, and I shall hear no argument against it. Also, he’s not awkward, I don‘t even understand where folks get that. Go Drew!
Its a lot better than Brad constantly talking about DOTA
What's better is that Brad is the only one who loves Dota and everyone else just kind of smiles and nods when he talks about it.
Haha yea. Everyone is just like, "Uh huh...uh huh...yea...ok....anyways".
Drew is great though, he always has these weird interesting stories to tell.
Drew can be faintly heard singing something in the latest Bombcast while the duders are talking about the evolution of mobile phones. Anyone have an idea of what it was?
The more Drew the better! Haha. I think it's great that he's finally starting to speak up more. He's younger than the rest too so he gives a different (less jaded) perspective.
Drew is the only reason I will keep on listening to the podcast and features of the show. He brings no sarcasm, snarkyness or jadded attitude that has been plaguing the crew for the last year. Tx Drew
@nashvilleskyline: If you can't see some of the snark and sarcasm he's throwing around then that's only because he's subtle about it. Dude is as sarcastic as any of them in his way.
I enjoy awkward drew very much. It mixes the dynamic up when you have everyone else being chill or funny.
Drew is great! I wish I had half the hobbies and interests that Duder has. He ain't akward, he's just Drew.
He isn't awkward if anything he has gotten better on the mic and in front of the camera since this last summer. Him and Vinny were made for each other. If drew ever moved on before GB dissolves Id be extremely disappointed.
What if... uh... what if Vinny sort of moved on?
Of the many adjectives I could use to describe Drew, "awkward" is not one of them. "Quiet", yes, perhaps "reserved", but not "awkward".
Drew acts like he could secretly also be a famous Evel Knievel-style stuntman.
I'm cool with that. I don't know how not to be cool with that.
@jiggajoe14: "modern day Chuck Norris but more awesome" That is perfect. Drew and I are the same age. So sometimes I feel like I would be asking the same questions he does. Also, I think he proved himself when he said "that's un404fortunate"
It's funny, without Jeff on the show for this week's Bombcast, Drew is a lot more talkative and assertive.
That's right.
Drew is being oppressed.
I don't think awkward is the right word. I'd say he's an understandable level of reserved given the company he his conversing with. Drew is a producer and a producer knows to let the talent shine. I think Drew purposefully tries to play the accompanying role, perhaps to a detriment to himself.
I think these character examination threads are way more awkward than Drew is.
Drew in general is underrated in general. I don't think many users realize how crucial he is to keeping everything running at Giant Bomb in regards to the video content, especially now that Vinny is in New York. I would listen to the podcast if it was only him talking, and I'd watch UPF if it was just him playing flight sims the whole time.
Also, I totally agree with @mocbucket62. He's just as awkward as anyone else who works at Giant Bomb. Everyone's awkward in their own ways.
These threads are weird. Who are we to analyze the staff like this?
I also don't like how people simply state what goes on at Giantbomb as fact even though they have as much access to that info as any other user of this site (outside of the staff and possibly the mods). Drew may be the cornerstone of the site or just simply a piece, how the hell should I know and you guys don't know either so please stop stating that as fact. There is a lot of this in those complaining threads about the site also and it's always botherd me.
WHAT AWKWARDNESS? SEXINESS IS PROBABLY WHAT YOU MEANT TO SAY!
INDEED.
those letters are close on the key board. Could have happened to anyone.

I just realized this thread is 5 months old
Don't worry...I'd celebrate Drew's, er, sex appeal any day.
