Ryan Davis is not funny

He is also a loud, belligerent host that detracts from an otherwise quite enjoyable and humorous podcast. The glory days, in my opinion, was when Vinny hosted The HotSpot before Jeff's firing. I know I'll get labeled as a flamer for this, and don't get me wrong...I think Ryan can be funny, I just think he is way too much of a sarcastic know-it-all to be heading The Bombcast. I really wish they would let Vinny or Patrick guest host at some point. Not to mention, the episodes Jeff has hosted over the years have been some of my favorites.

Well, I disagree with you so....

@Eli:

Good for you. What do you want the community to add to this?

He has a specific brand of humor as does Jeff either you "get it" or you don't. And that's fine if you don't enjoy it but Ryan and Jeff created giantbomb so...I wouldn't expect him to go anywhere.

Your opinion is wrong. Put that in your book.

Ryan is what no one else wants to be... a professional host. It's harder than you think.

He's an assholes at times but he has a great sense of humor.

Loud and belligerent are the best things to be.

Ryan is a sarcastic know-it-all? Boy, are you going to be upset when they have Alex on.

i can see how you would feel like that, but i really like Ryan. his goofy mispronunciations and his loud, vibrant speaking manner is what makes me like him.

I give this thread 2½ pages before lock.

Come on. Just that makes your opinion sound pretty lame. Really? That far back? It seems you are nostalgic more than anything.

And I think Ryan can be pretty funny.

No one's opinion is wrong, therefore...you're wrong.

Is that a fact or opinion? :s

I agree that Vinny was an outrageously good host, but Ryan is fine. Case in point:

"HE HE HE HE HE HE HE HE HE HE HE HE." -Ryan Davis.

Nah, you are pretty wrong on this one, pal.

@brainwins: I've listened to Rich's, Vinny's, Tor's, Brendan's, and Tom's versions to The HotSpot and I have also listened to all of the Arrow Pointing Down podcasts, as well as nearly every episode of the Bombcast. Out of all, I happen to think Vinny was the best host. Is there something wrong with nostalgia being a factor in who I personally think was the best host? The old HotSpot and the Bombast are pretty similar, so it's a fair comparison.
