2018 is the 10-year anniversary of the launch of Giant Bomb. I love the current state of Giant Bomb. Ben Pack is hilarious and Breakfast 'N' Ben is maybe my favorite new feature on the site, particularly when Jan is riding shotgun. Abby continues to shine bright, especially during her stretch running the show for 13 Deadly Sims, and I'm really looking forward to her getting back to some horror games when October comes around again. Jeff Bakalar might be the secret MVP of the website. No one needs to talk up how great Dan and Jason have been for this site, although I miss their head-to-head "chemistry".
That aside, are we ever going to get Jeff and Vinny content again? For me personally, this website was built upon 2 things: 1) Jeff and Vinny's chemistry with the P4 ER and 2) Ryan Davis' chemistry with everyone. The All Systems Goku podcast has proven that East and West coast separation isn't a show stopper anymore. No one's asking for another 99 hour 59 minute JRPG playthrough, some one-off content would be great.
On a similar note, any hope for a 10-year anniversary one-shot podcast with Jeff, Vinny, and Brad? Alex makes sense as the 4th since he actually appeared as a guest on the podcast with Jeff and Ryan before even Brad and Vinny (if I remember correctly), or, ultimate fantasy, they get Dave Snider. We know Dave is out there. We got to see him in the back of that one video around the holidays.
Last and not least, I wish Rorie and Alex would from time to time tell me the names of some good movies to watch on Netflix. I never would have seen Trollhunter and Let the Right One In without their segments on the old Whiskey Media Happy Hours.
Alright, I'm done. Back to living in the present.
