Mailbag: Giant Bomb Mailbag: Plenty of Fish...er, Snacks Edition

I had something like Havgull when I went to Iceland a few years ago, that shit is the best.

God I love mailbag videos

Every time Dan shows up I love him more and more, dudes the best!

That's a pretty good sausage pun. The BBQ place in my home town had a good one too. "Where a waist is a terrible thing to mind."

Also, Jeff I've been told your knife is somewhere under the last 4 mailbags.

I actually know the store where the beef Jerky came from. Hubby used to drive by it on his way to work years ago when we lived in that part of GA. That's pretty cool!

Don't worry @brad, I laughed at your Street Fighter joke!

Norway REPRESENT!

Dat fish tho... Øhrg.

I think Jeff just walks around the office with that knife out all the time, and during quick looks he points it meaningfully at the others to motivate them.

This. Also, I haven't had a huge deal of experience with salty candy varieties, but I do enjoy chocolate pretzels, which is basically a salt/chocolate combo, so I'd imagine I'd enjoy quite a few of the things going around. It's all about the balance.

Jeff reading stuff in Norwegian cracked me up, this video kinda made me want to send you guys some stuff. They also have 1,5 liter bottles of Urge here, so i guess that might be popular with you guys?

Have you ever seen GBS or FYAD? Regulars there might not be the absolute worst trolls, but they make a considerable effort.

@gvalo: It's pretty great.

Boneless? Go get yourself a fucking happy meal with chicken nuggets, you babies.

He's not lying about the Norwegian milk chocolate. Probably the most delicious shit out there, period!

Dan's posture hurts to look at!

I want that lamp but it's sold out.

Brad was right, "Dan tries different foods" should totally be a new premium feature.

He's way with food fascinates me.

@pimblycharles: I'm sure Brad has, and Possibly Dan with his crazy food adventures. Drew probably hunts his own and makes Jerky on the weekend in North Korea.

Man, that Drew is a handsome SOB.

"What is Haddock"


???!?!??!??!!?

Mmmm (S)urge

Clean your desk Jeff, there are probably 20 knives in that mess.

Great Mailbag. Urge (Surge?) is still going strong here in Norway. One of the first Facebook petitions that got big over here (in '07 or '08 I think) was about trying to get 1,5l Urge bottles back in stores. It worked, they still sell it everywhere here (it's my favourite soda, actually!).

Don't trust them §

Team bone-in here to represent!

Jeff is clearly going to do a heel turn and try to usurp Dan as leader of #TeamBoneless.

Poor Drew... :D

Audio super quiet for anyone else?

I tired beef jerky when I was in the US once.

I was probably one of the most disgusting things I've ever tasted.

Jason is slightly awkward...

@freecajunlove@jamin724: Awesome! Thanks guys, I have to go check it out.

Right! He has amazing comedic timing... and knows how to make flying planes and trains entertaining

At the same time when his one liners and puns are groan inducing, they bring the conversation to a halt, which is hilarious in its own way :)

After watching the first 30 seconds of this video... I definitely got into the wrong career field... :-(

I actually live relatively close to Cordele. Gonna have to make a stop by that general store if I ever pass through.

thats such a odd sentence with random words that should not fit together. and yet it does

@uninvincible: Haddock is an Atlantic Ocean fish, so not something you'd pull out of a lake in Minnesota.

That Thin Lizzy shirt is killer, @danryckert!

Here's the site for the jerky the guys were eating. They ship stuff in the continental US.

Too bad I'm in Canada. :(

EDIT: Somebody already posted this. Oops!

What game are Dan and Drew playing?

It's weird as hell to me to send stuff in, but people make the effort and spend the money, presumably just to see you open it up on the mailbag section. I think you guys could be a little more involved with these mailbag video spots, e.g. everyone actually tries something in there and/or give a proper shout out to the people who send it in, i dunno, something?

Like, IS that the best chocolate in the world? you could at least try a bit and let me know >_>

Kill it with Fire

Laughed so hard at this,I think you should do a "Jeff reads norwegian wrapping-segement" next unpro Friday..also,the fish thing,it's in every grocery all over the country xD

Are these mailbag videos being shot on an iphone camera nowadays? That was hard to watch.

He means that not all jerky is cooked. I made some really good jerky with a box fan at room temperature. Either way, you can eat beef raw, like in steak tartare or carpaccio, it's delicious.

URGE!
