Poll Would it be too awkward to Skype Alex Navarro in on Bombcasts, occasionally? (275 votes)
Not even like every week, but maybe once a month? Or for something like this week's podcast, where they're down Jeff and Patrick?
Granted, I've listened to other Skype-based podcasts where the awkward delays are noticeable, and I listen to one Skype-based podcast where it is meticulously produced afterwards to minimize the delay between responses so it sounds like more of a natural conversation, with no random 2-3 second Skype delays (though Ryan would certainly never have the time to do this). So maybe Skype would just kill the Bombcast's flow of conversation and jokes.
Still, the three main reviewers on Giant Bomb right now are pretty much Jeff, Brad, and Alex (Ryan seems to barely write reviews anymore except during times with a bunch of releases, because I imagine he is busy handling the podcast, MCing most of their livestreams, and sitting in on a good deal of Quick Looks). It seems unfortunate that they can't have Alex's voice be literally heard more often.
