Giant Bombcast 07/15/2014

Sentris developer Samantha Kalman drops by to chat with us about GaymerX2, the value of programming, the Nintendo 64's forgotten lineup, electronic sports, the secret identity of Freezyfrog, microbial science, and Dan Ryckert's odd, odd palate.

The Giant Bombcast is the world's most beloved video game podcast, and now it's available in video form.

He was on vacation from Wedensday last week until today, I believe!

And cool to have Samantha on.

Potential talk about The Waluigi? I guess Dan's comfortable enough to share that part of him with the community now.

There's no turning back?!

Edit: Wait a minute, I remember the ingredients being way stupider. That doesn't sound too bad.!

Always interested in hearing from new folks, but Samantha definitely won me over by dropping that Attitude Era knowledge.

EDIT: lol the salt in this comments section from people who just HAVE to tell everyone they aren't listening this week, you people are hilarious

EDIT2: This food talk is so good. Gotta be honest, I was a lot like Dan for much of my life. It's only recently that I forced myself to be more adventurous and try new stuff. If I discover time travel, I'm going to kick young me in the ass and make him try more food.

Yay Sam. I know that gal in person. She's pretty rad. It's sort of surreal hearing on one of my favorite podcasts, but also totally awesome. If you haven't checked out Sentris yet then you should. It's equally rad.

I really don't want to hear the words "microbial science" and "palate" in the same sentence...

The terrible translation of Harvest Moon 64 is a huge part of its charm!!

The other part is bugs.

Played the hell out of this with my little brother.

Family joke was that the game was localized, QAed, and marketed by the only two employees of Natsume, "Nat and Sume." Rinky dink :D

Guests occasionally are fine, like one every few years, but they need to keep a steady cast.

Nothing like the smell of a fresh new bombcast on a Tuesday.

And a Brad hosted cast at that!

Really wish they had Danny on this too. I really wish GB just hired Danny TBH. Samantha seems cool. Nice to have a woman on the GB cast, interesting perspective.
