Voicemail Dump Truck Wow!!! With Jeff and Ben 10/03/17

After being the raid?

@ste89: You don't beat it. You become it.

@toomuchcraig: from watching the stream I can agree!

Let's face it, they were doing it for long enough to become a part of it.

You have become the Leviathan!

I remember using voice chat for Counterstrike and Return to Castle Wolfenstein as early as 1999. Hell, it was practically mandatory for early circa 2004 World of Warcraft guilds.

Ah, now that screen takes me back. Use to raid back in the early WoW days. Tough to get 40 people together, let alone get them all doing the right thing!

But it did feel great when it all worked out.

I'm a firm believer that the best competitive and co-op experiences happen with total strangers. Often ones you can't communicate with verbally.

slightly disappointed this was not actually a WoW raid attempt (after seeing the title on the schedule)... I guess Jeff may never raid ever again after Destiny 2 :D

Know the raid. BE the raid.

Throne of Thunder was a great raid!

Loving the aftershows so far, guys. Keep it up!

Shouldn't Rorie be on this?

I got so excited when I saw that picture. I thought Ben and Jeff had started a WoW feature... Oh well...

"Pack-Mann on (INSERT THE DAYS SUBJECT HERE)"

you're welcome!

Only the most hardcore of raiding guilds pushing for world firsts do that split raiding stuff. The overwhelming majority of players don't. There's even guilds that do regularly attain decent rankings that don't do it. It's a very small subset of people. If that guy's guild wasn't pushing world firsts (or at least a high world ranking), I don't even know why they would bother to split raid. It does a great job of killing your desire to play the game.

It's Giordano's and Geno's East. Those are the big Chicago deep dish institutions. Pequod's is known for its pan pizza.

@jeffleclerc: Woah woah woah. Lou Malnati's not on the list!? The big 3 I would hope!

@kendoebi: Oh for sure. I just mentioned those two because out-of-towners get them confused.

@jeffleclerc: You left out the best one, Lou Malnati's.

I will not install WoW. I will not install WoW. I WILL NOT install WoW....

Can you guys break this out into a separate feed now? I don't care what you call it. "Whatever the fuck with Jeff and Ben I guess".

Ban & Yef on da decks

I'd like to point out that I'm tickled that this is filed under tom Clancy a rainbow 6

A name for the show: "The Blast Zone".

Dragon Ball GT was wiped from cannon, right? I don't think anything from it will show up in the fighting game.

@jeffleclerc: Is Geno's East the place where everyone writes their name on the tables and walls?

Good old raid days.

I remember in High School staying up all night with my guild trying to beat Raptor boss in Zul Gurub in Wow.

I think we finally called it at like 7:30 am and I had to go to work at 8:30. Luckily it was a pretty lax retail job with only like 5 people and I ended up falling asleep in the break room.

I am still internet friends with 1 person I used to play WoW with that I have never met in real life.

@wardcleaver: That's the one.

Haven't been listening to this show but I would've called in for this. Played a ton of Left 4 Dead on 360 and had a lot of interesting encounters playing pick up games with random people. I once played a Versus Campaign with a group of 3 Japanese dude and despite my very rudimentary Japanese and their limited English we had a fun time. Some other dudes I met talked me into doing a money match which I was not confident about and as I expected we got stomped so that was the end of that.

I've played a handful of raids in WoW but I've never once done one of those raids that hadn't already been completely solved ahead of time. Regardless WoW raids and dungeons were super fun for me, I just couldn't make the kind of commitments needed to make that time worth my while in the game. I am so open to playing FFXIV but again I don't think I can make that kind of time between all the games I WANT to play. Most recently I've played a bunch of Nuclear Throne co-op with a friend of mine, if only Vlambeer could put out more than one patch for their broken-ass game. :P

I rate this podcast 4.5 Wows out of 5 Wows - had to dock half a Wows because it could have used more Wows.

“... With Jeff and Ben” sounds pretty good.

Binary Bombin' with Jeff and Ben

"GB West Chats With The Rest"

"Giant Bombchat"

"GB's Shoot the Breeze"

"Bombcast Pack-chat/ter" (backchat/ter)

Wait, was there a wow stream I missed? I can't see it on the site
