Giant Bombcast 589: The Homie Protocol

@brad: the Premium video download links all lead to 404 pages, and trying it in the player just made it instantly stop on a black screen, again as if the video simply didn't exist for the player to load.

Now, 40 minutes later, premium video isn't even an option (but that might be due to some fiddling going on in the background).

@mostlysquares: How much water do you think rests on your asshole? The water doesn't just spray everywhere. A wipe/pat with 4-5 squares and you should be good to go.

"Are you a jock, a nerd, or a fascist" had me keeled over laughing.

Just want to add to the kudos for Ben and Jeff. Thanks for the compassion, guys.

Thank you to Ben and Jeff for the excellent, heartfelt comments at the end of this show. Always meaningful to hear, even when it's hard.

It's really sad what happened to Etika and huge props to Ben for being humane about it. It's not only the pressure of being a personally, but I am afraid a lot of people added a whole load of pressure by labelling him homophobic and whatnot. You can be liberal and critical of homophobia but do it in a manner that is both helpful and not hurtful. Etika wasn't perfect but we all now about his troubles and we all could have been better about it.

The term gamer has been around for hundreds of years and it being used to refer to people who play video games has been the case for over 30 years.
