"If they want a hot girl who is certifiably geeky, they could hire Kate a.k.a. Shegeek
She's no slouch, but I'm not 100% sure she has enough gamer cred to be a staffer here, or what qualifications she has other than being into nerdy stuff. "
Well isn't she just a lively character.. Nah i don't think she could keep up with any of the Whiskey media crew, she seems kinda drowsy. "
You may be right. The more I think about it, I don't think she would fit in here, as much as I enjoy her vlog.
" The response to the awful Leigh Alexander was bad enough that I'm sure they want to avoid it as much as possible. "
I don't think she's representative of females by an large though. That woman was a hurricane of noise. Girls are just as good on podcasts as guys can be, I agree she'd need to have a great sense of humor to keep up with the guys but i could see it easily. I've listened to the Girlfight podcast a few times an it's pretty good. And none of them made me wanna jump headfirst into a wood chipper like Leigh did.
That's a good point. Short of Leigh Alexander they would be hard pressed to find someone nearly as divisive and annoying to the community as that sack of puttin-mah-face-in-da-camera.

What I mean is Kessler is the only Gamer Babe I would accept. I am in no way bashing Kessler, I am merely reflecting on his babe status.
" This thread is fascinating and disturbing all at the same time. Men on the internet can be down right cruel, especially towards women. People easily mock and/or make fun of the GB crew (for example) for what they wear, say or the style of their facial hair. Now imagine a chick, whether she is considered hot or not, in their place. She would be doomed simply because most men put women on some annoying pedestal in which they have to act/look a certain way and if they don't all hell breaks loose. An overweight, but good-looking, gamer chick would be in trouble because of the anonymity of the internet. As a female, I wish the "gamer chicks" title would disappear. Anyone who plays video games regularly is a gamer... I really despise the title of "gamer girl". "
Quoted for truth.

" Everyone knows the Giant Bomb guys are a "dicks only" troupe. Geez. Seriously, I wouldn't care as long as she knew what the fuck she was talking about. REALLY knew. Not "I'm reading off the prompter and it sounds like I know". Even then, that wouldn't jive with the GB crew and she would be outed when she has to record her first Quick Look and ends up pulling multiple, consistent "Brads". "
Really, so all the girls you know suck at games that bad? Or is this you putting a biased opinion, not saying you can't have one, but it's biased tot he degree of "They suck at games why would they bother to be hired?" Which, is sad because it's untrue.
If they ever did I wouldn't want them to be anything like Jessica Chobot or Olivia Munn who seem really superficial and irritating. Well actually they could still be hot but as long as they know what they're talking about and do so with a genuine, non-irritating passion. Such a nerd is rare though.
