Back for the Pack

It’s great to hear Ben again!

I had almost forgotten how good Ben is in the game and news discussion parts of the podcast.

@janman: Well, now I'll need that list every week!

I appreciate so much that Ben gets back and immediately intervenes on Jan's segues.

@csl316: If you're interested, Jan has posted it as the first comment on the last few Bombcasts before this one.

@bisonhero: Well, look at that.

"and Jason is on assignment, that happens sometimes" that made me laugh so hard

I miss that pineapple shirt

I respect Ben’s reasons for stepping down on the website, but I’m so happy Ben is here for at least a while.

cursed thumbnail, but ben balances it out

So great to see Ben again!

Awesome to see Ben!!!!

He was once a 3 AM boy. Now, he is a 3 AM man.

I love how Jeff refers to his newborn son as "This guy", it's fucking hilarious.

Ben! \o/

Hello Hot Ben Winter

The 3am Boys Are Back in Town

Best episode in like, half a year. Man, Ben just has magical chemistry with Jan, Gerstmann and Danny. Gotdamn

Good to see you, Ben!

So glad to have Ben back! Could some of GB's budget go towards providing him a mic and beautiful cardboard backdrop?

Has anyone/is anyone going to check out the Amazon MMO New world? Seems that it's sort of ok, although that's hard to tell so early into an MMO.

Ben <3

"How have you Ben?"

I heard you, @janman, and I liked it.

Ben Ben Ben Ben Ben Ben Ben Ben Ben Ben Ben Ben Ben Ben Ben Ben Ben Jef.

Mario was a cartoon in the real world in the old 80's comics, so that would be a trip if they made that a movie.

It's great to have Ben on the podcast. His ability to match energy with everyone on staff is as sharp as ever, and it's always lovely to hear from him generally. Also I'm a fan of Jan continuing to host the show - perhaps this is just because Jeff's still super busy, but he does a fantastic job of it regardless.

Not gonna lie, these recent Jan segues are real cringy and not enjoyable

Good to see you Ben! Thank you for speaking up about Jan's segues. <3

And congrats Jeff on the baby boy. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9JxhTnWrKYs

BEN BEN BEN BEN BEN BEN BEN BEN BEN BEN BEN BEN!!!!!

WOHOOOOOO

Jan, you add so much to the hosting, your energy is great, we need to see you do that more often ! Welcome back to Ben, I've missed your takes and expertise so much !

Shit, that question about visiting other countries was eye opening.

It is cool that Ben is back but the email segment has to be a little quicker/tidier. The show is already quite long, it's nice when the email segment is quick and spicy.

Guess who's back, back again!? Pack is back, tell a friend!

Ben Pack! hell yeah

I think I could choke down a soup edible, but a fresh fish edible sounds incredibly vile.

It was real fun hearing Ben again! Loved how scandalized Jeff B was by the voicemail dumptruck.

HELL YEAH BEN PACK

Someone’s mic was picking up their keyboard and mouse a little too well. Lots of typing, clicking, and mouse wheel scrolling noise. Damned misophonia. :(

It's hapbening, it's Ben so long.

Holy shit it’s good to hear your sweet voice Ben, I have missed you.

The mouse scroll noise in some part of the podcast was driving me nuts.

Other then that, great pod!

Diablo 2 res is amazing, its like 2000s again. Cant stop playing it.

Ben knows about and has insightful things to say about worthwhile vidja games, unlike some newbies to GB I have to say

Love you Ben ❤️

Also I kinda like the ActRaiser remake, but I never touched the original and see this as a random port of some PSP game I missed.

Aloy needs a pee ! (Funny)

Now that, was a bombcast. So nice to hear Ben again.
