The 08/07 Bombcast, it's just Jeff Ryan and Vinny. Jeff fake calls-in to a radio show and asks for a shout out to his girlfriend. Ryan starts to shout her out before Jeff shouts, "I'm gonna stab you for what you did to me, girl! No one should have to go through that." Cue impossible neverending laughter.
The Jim Bakker/apocalypse/hummingbird mask/public access conversation on the 7/17 show, which I suppose is about the first 1/4 of the show. For a specific moment, maybe when Jeff pulled up a numbers station on the previous week's show.
The Ravaged quick look had me laughing the hardest this year. I'm going to nominate the Battle Tetris TNT where Jeff put Brad in his place. Admittedly that was a strange, lackadaisical live stream but the agony of Brad's defeat was pure poetry.
My favorites were #TeamBrad, Chris with the white car, The planning of THE RAID, and that entire Sleeping Dogs NIghtmare in Northpoint quick look. That's what sticks out in my mind from this past year.
The "vittles" moment during the game show quicklook. I was laughing out loud in a public computer lab and I'm sure that people thought that something was wrong with me.
Team Brad seems to be the clear winner, but I'm gonna throw in an honorable mention for GERSTMANNGATE 2012: FULL DISCLOSURE; aka when the 2007 firing story was finally told and it was about 80% accurate to what we all knew already. It was just nice to hear it finally addressed.
All of those moments were great but Drew's North Korea trip was so unexpected and so interesting that , even if it wasn't video game related, I think it was the best piece of content this year.

I could get on board with that. It was genuinely super interesting and funny seeing Drew go through his slides with the guys.
Big Jeffrey hands down. While I did think Brad getting that achievement in COD4 was awesome, I laughed SO MUCH during the Rollercoaster Rampage QuickLook it is by far my favorite QL of all time.
#TeamBrad is high up there, but in terms of moments the CBSi announcement cannot be topped. It was the end of an era, goodbye to another office but more importantly the splintering of the Whiskey Media family. The site changed fundamentally that day.
Team Brad is definitely an awesome moment. I'd say that for general Giant Bomb humour, though, Jeff's PAX 40 cents rant was pretty awesome -- I don't think I've laughed harder at anything on GB this year.
Team Brad. Also, Drew's North Korea podcast was awesome and the timing of it was was redonkulous because I was writing an essay about North Korea when it got uploaded.
does Jeff's 4 hour stream of Funky Barn count as GB content? It wasnt actually on GB but man... it was magical. Its actually one of the reasons I got a WiiU no joke
While I've had about a million great moments watching and reading Giant Bomb over the last year, I feel like it's just silly to suggest anything but Team Brad which was such a stupidly perfect moment at the end of a great, live show. Too good to be true, really.
I wasn't awake to see #TeamBrad happen live so while I agree it's the moment of the year, I can't say I felt the high of that moment to usurp others like Drew Returns From North Korea and especially the above.

I was debating on what to vote for... then I watched the video of Brad again. God damn, watching that live was so.fucking.awesome.
