Brad on a show with djWheat and JP

I try to avoid posting videos, but it's Brad. Wheat and JP are high-profile esports people and it's always nice to see Brad engage in that community (outside of Daily Dota).

There's talk of Octodad, Xbox release dates, Plants vs. Zombies. and Brothers (of course).

Nice discussion about companies presenting people as the face of a company, personalities that are seen outside of standard presentations. Such as Johnny V, Adam Boyes, etc. Hell, even Brad doing stuff like this isn't him pushing Giant Bomb on people, but just casually chatting to friends and possibly reaching out to a new fanbase. People occasionally have mixed feelings about GB's close relationships with Double Fine and Harmonix, but seeing a guy you're familiar with showing up somewhere else gives me a bit of a different perspective on that sort of thing.

Worth a look.

Edit: There was another episode, here and here.

Neat! I'll definitely check this out.

When they talk about personable people representing a company, Brad points out that marketing might catch on and start using that for evil.

Which is kind of a scary thought. We trust Adam Boyes because of Age of Booty, but what if someone in that position was just sent over to spy and infiltrate Giant Bomb? An expert actor or something. I shudder at the thought.

Cool! Never seen this show, thanks for posting this.

Corporate espionage double agents!

Yep. On Friday, Drew was activated. It can be anyone!

Even you!!

@csl316: Those corporate sneak fucks.

Thank you for posting this. Will definitly check this out.

Thanks, i'll watch it.
