I seriously left. I couldn't stand her. And besides every time someone said to turn down her mic, some intern comes in and threatens to kick people.

" Haha it's actually way more entertaining that everyone is so intensely angry than if she wasn't there at all.   Edit:  Also, let's be honest, John Vignocchi (hopefully I spelled that right?) talked about himself, and his stories, a ton on the last Bombcast.  Most people agree that it's not bad.  Why is it bad with Leigh?  Because she's not a male.  Super Edit:  Prepared to wake up to about 15 super belligerent responses tomorrow morning. "
Well yeah. You're assuming everyone liked the story yesterday and everyone hates these stories, and that it had nothing to do with the quality of the stories. That's some dumbass assuming.

@Dany:  I think so but it's not my picture or me in it.  Someone posted it on the forums and the image of Jeff getting punched was just too good to pass up.

I think he is joking. Well, i hope. Also, it would be funny if the podcast text was just "I'm Sorry"

They keep bringing her back because it's guaranteed that she'll sleep with Jeff. Poor dude can't get laid.

I'm gonna concur with the TC. She seems incredibly rude and ignorant. She constantly cuts people off, yells into the microphone and disagrees with just about any reasonable statement made. And we get it...you're a woman who likes sports, stop talking about it.

I think it's funny how everyone can talk mad shit on her and it be OK, but anyone who disagrees is automatically dismissed as an "Internet white knight" and then made fun of.  Fucking morons. "
Scroll up. "

" @Kowbrainz: No, people on both sides have an opinion of her and that's fine. I think she's fucking annoying, that doesn't make me an asshole. What I'm talking about is the "She's a woman, that's why you guys are being so disrespectful" assholes coming to her rescue. "


 
Ah, I see, thanks for the clearing that up! I agree that it's dumb for people to assume others don't like her because she is a woman. I can perfectly understand why people have a problem with her, it's just incredibly annoying to see people that don't have a problem her get jumped on so harshly for disagreeing with the seemingly popular opinion.

Agreed, anyone who are willing to get rilled up when she's on, deserves to get her infused into their bombcast.

People react differently to alcohol. It's as simple as that. The majority of this board however has little to no contact with women, so they just don't understand.

@ryanwho:  @CowMuffins: What more needs to be said?  This is an entire thread of people acting like immature fuckheads because they don't like the guest that's on...yet they continue to listen to it?  Also, it's not like any one of the people commenting in this thread wouldn't be the same way if they were invited on the Bombcast, which is arguably one of the most listened-to podcasts in the gaming industry.  You'd all be jumping in and trying to offer your opinions as if they mattered as well, just as I would. 
 
So what's the point in making an entire thread to bitch about something like this?  I think people just need to chug back a few beers and join in on the insanity of it all. 
 
The short version of all that:  "Cry more, babies". 
 
P.S. - I don't particularly care one way or another for Leigh Alexander.  All I know of her was last year's Bombcast.  I'm not going to defend her, but I'm also not going to make a thread specifically to bitch about it...nor am I going to come in and say "OH MY GOD GET HER OFF THE BOMBCAST I CAN'T TAKE THIS ANYMORE"...and then keep listening to the fucking thing.

You're right. There's a direct correlatiion to knowing alcohol gets people drunk and how many women you know. You made a great point, be proud.

Actually the first couple pages is just stream of consciousness articulating dislike. It didn't become about sex until heroes like you showed up with your "I dont care, namecalling and assumptions, but I don't care".

He has consistently proven to be one of the best Bombcast guests out there! I love listening to him tell stories.

@ryanwho: I don't care that she's a guest.  I'm not going to white knight someone I know jack nor shit about.  Female, male, it makes no difference.  The guys invited her on, and you people as listeners decide whether you are going to listen to it or not. 
 
I DO care that our community is acting like fuckheads in a thread on the forums rather than voicing complaints in a more constructive form, like sending the guys PMs or e-mails saying "hey, guys, we don't really like her being on the Bombcast".
 
If you don't want to hear her, then don't listen to it.  I'm sure that the Quantcast stuff integrated into Giant Bomb probably tracks the traffic on the podcasts, as well as the iTunes store tracks how many people are downloading the Bombcast.  Low numbers will translate into "hey, maybe we shouldn't have her back on because people on the forums and the site don't seem to like her". 
 
In short, it's stupid to see so many people bitching...but continuing to listen.

Giant Bomb is the world’s largest editable video game database. We're into E3 2010, Los Angeles, and sexists like you!
 
Come on, seriously... there have been too many issues regarding women around these forums; Leigh Alexander, female members, "supposed' female members. There's so much dude-ing out over here that chicks are always treated like shit here.

@jakob187:  That's what I said a thousand posts back. Much like drivers licenses and government health care, the Bombcast is a privilege, not a right! Wait, that's a terrible analogy. Never mind.

I should also point out that the majority of the hate in this thread...is more than likely generated from the general hatred from last year. 
 
It's cool to hate on Leigh.  We get it.  Whatever.  Move on.

Because:
1. Leigh Alexander has a bad reputation on Giant Bomb
2. Female members are fine as long as they aren't attempting to impress us because they're female
3. People can pretend to be whoever they want on the internet, including girls, to get attention. It's only natural we question whether or not that's true.

This isn't even about that anymore. Its more about abrasive people going "fuck the haters put this girl on who Ryan Davis is clearly losing patience with on the podcast all the time that will show them!" I already turned the podcast off. Really, the goddamn podcast host is visibly annoyed and people are still pretending the only way you could be not enjoying this is if you're a woman fearing shutin.

I turned it off. Give me Paul on a post-E3 bombcast and I'd be more than happy.
