Recently two new pieces of premium content have appeared, Jar time with Jeff and Breaking Brad. These two features are by Jeff and brad respectively. As I looked through their titles on the site's homepage I realized that the titles have an alliterative quality to them.
Jar time with Jeff
&
Breaking Brad
This got me thinking. If other members of the Whiskey Media staff were to get their own features what would they be called? Keep in mind they need to have an alliterative quality to them. If possible try and explain what you think the feature would be about. I'll start
1. Ryan's Rant- A weekly segment where Ryan discusses what annoyed him that week.
2. Vinny's Veil- A behind the scenes look at Vinny's job on the site.
3.Pen Pals with Patrick- Patrick reads and replies to letters(not emails) from giant bomb fans.
So what can you guys come up with and do you think Ryan and Vinny should get their own premium content?
Naming Ryan and Vinny's future premium content.
This man.... this man is a genius! But seriously though I would like the see Ryan's Rant, it's always fun to listen to people be angry about something.
Vinny's Vitriol -- Vinny harshly criticizes everything.
Ryan's recess -- Ryan plays on a jungle gym. (Not really...)
Ryan reloaded -- Ryan goes to shooting ranges and learns how to be a good, responsible marksman.
Those are actually good ideas for video content, at least in theory. I'd like to see Drew Doin' It. I'll let you decide what "it" is.
Vintage Vinny -- Vinny shows us and experiments with a bunch of vintage video game stuff -- sort of like the Joust videos he already did.
Gerstmann's Gats -- Same idea as Ryan reloaded.
Shoemaker Show -- Easy segment name for a solo venture by Brad.
Caravella Conundrum -- Vinny talks about puzzling questions in life... or something, I'm not sure
Five Days of Davis -- A special where Ryan talks about a dearly beloved and possibly obscure game of his once per day for one work week.
Patrick's Points - Patrick tackles arcade games that were made before he was born in an attempt to figure out what the big deal about points was. Meanwhile we are still trying to figure out what Patrick is. A gamer? A journalist? A lamp post? You be the judge!
Ryan & Rorie - Rants, hand holding, posters, and puppies await you on this magical journey. These guys cover the adorable and whacky side of gaming such as Kirby and Kinect games. All the pink fluff and sparkle you can handle while two crusty dudes swear like sailors.
Dave the Demolition Man - Hardcore Dave takes your beloved PC games of yore and DEMOLISHES them with the worst mods he can find. No game is safe so don't get your panties in a bunch when you see deathmatches consisting of Leia slave girls wielding penis sabers.
Drew and Dumber - We determine who's worse at video games, Drew or some random Intern. Episodes always end with Drew giving the intern his rape face regardless if he won or lost.
Kessler's Korner - In soviet giantbomb, Kessler owns you! The world has gone crazy and in bizarro world fashion, somehow Matt Kessler is put in charge. Can he handle the pressure? Will the Whiskey Media studio survive? What exactly does his wallet contain if not soup? Tune in for the exciting answers!
Rum Time with Ryan - Similar to Jar Time, except Ryan drinks more and more as time goes on.
Veeblefetzer with Vinny - Vinny teaches us about the technical side of video stuff.
Pachyderms with Patrick - Patrick talks about what he believes are the elephants in the room of the video game industry.
These sound Awesome. I especially love the Ryan and Rorie idea. I really hope the Giant Bomb crew farm this thread for ideas, many of them are great.Ryan & Rorie - Rants, hand holding, posters, and puppies await you on this magical journey.

"3.Pen Pals with Patrick- Patrick reads and replies to letters(not emails) from giant bomb fans."
make it happen!
Most Racist with Ryan Davis - Ryan takes a look at the most racist games in de video games history
Or
Camping with Caravellas - A live stream of Vinny and his Dad camping but also talking about video games and whatnot.
Isn't the 'Load our Last Save' (L.O.L.S) Vinny's premium content? And 'Random P.C. Game' Dave's? We've gotten a few of each and I've thoroughly enjoyed those. Also, I think the Endurance run is what Patrick and Ryan's premium content will be for a long while. That being said, 'Vinny, Vidi, Vici' would be neat rename for L.O.L.S.
So with Drew left, how about:
Drew Does Danger: Drew will do a hardcore run of a game
Dapper Drew: Drew Quick Looks fashion games
Drew's Double Dip
Scanlon's Secrets: Drew shows us some neat Easter Eggs
Also, once they finish the Endurance Run, in lieu of a "Ryan Rant" I suggest a "Rappin' With Ryan" where Ryan sits backwards on a chair and delivers some real talk (or straight talk, if you prefer) about video games.
@whistlebottom: Endurance Run is for everyone, it won't be premium content. (Not saying they need to do premium content too, that would be pretty time consuming)
Planet Jeff - Documentary series about Jeff exploring ManiaLand's economic recession and reasons for the low value of its currency, planets. Features interviews with poor ManiaLand citizens who are suffering from the recession, shots of Jeff sighing and shaking his head, and investigations of Ubisoft employees who get massive bonuses for irresponsibly giving out millions of Planets in loans that will never be paid.
@Masha2932: You know what? Despite this thread being full of awesome and great ideas I can't help but chuckle to myself about how it could also be a disaster.
Jar Time with Jeff, Breaking Brad, and the other ideas.... they are all starting to remind me of how bad the WWF was in the early to mid 90s where every wrestler had to have a gimmick. Does the Giantbomb crew need their own gimmicks as well??
Maybe not but wrestling was fun in the 90s and any comparison to that time period is fine in my books.@Masha2932: You know what? Despite this thread being full of awesome and great ideas I can't help but chuckle to myself about how it could also be a disaster.

I was talking more about the "In your House" 90s, not the "Raw is War" 90s but it's cool.
Caravella Cooking (or Chef Caravella)- Vinny stated on a bombcast that he wanted to do a feature where he took the DSi cooking/recipe program and tried to cook on camera following its instructions.
"Dave the Demolition Man - Hardcore Dave takes your beloved PC games of yore and DEMOLISHES them with the worst mods he can find. No game is safe so don't get your panties in a bunch when you see deathmatches consisting of Leia slave girls wielding penis sabers."
This sounds AMAZING!
