Giant Bombcast 440: The Live One

Cant wait to watch this every week!

Wasn't able to watch it live at work, so i will listen like usual!

WHERES THE VIDJA?? :)

Too bad I missed it :[

Corn is not a "vegetable" in the way that Dan is thinking, but actually a grain closer in nutritive content to wheat and rice, which can often be prepared in very unhealthy ways. Grains and starches provide high levels of carbohydrates and calories, but the ways they are used in industrial food production strip most of the actual nutritional part of the grain in order to prolong its shelf life and "improve taste."

The only reason that Native Americans were able to subsist on a corn-heavy diet was because of a preparation process called nixtamalization that unlocked key nutrients, vitamins, and minerals. For centuries, people in Europe and Africa who could only eat non-nixtamalized corn and little else died from malnutrition and deficiency diseases such as pellagra and kwashiorkor. In any case, corn does not count as a vegetable in the sense that parents and doctors mean when they say "Eat your vegetables." Those vegetables are usually dense with nutrients and have a low glycemic load.

Dan talking about food used to be really funny, but now that he has revealed he is pre-diabetic, it's becoming somewhat more worrisome and maybe he should really learn something about nutrition. Maybe NewDan 3.0 can be a health nut, that could be funny and save a life

@comradesolar: Did you have that typed up and ready to go? :p

TUUUESDAYY!!

Here we go!

I will probably continue to listen to the audio version in my car and pause when I need to do stuff but very much looking forward to the innumerable GIFs that will come out of the video version.

I'm never gonna watch this.

Hey! I've already heard this!

I watched this live!

I already know all the secrets.

I still hate this.

Can't wait to watch! Podcast for the commute, video version to distract me from studying for my master's.

Lol, go back and number every episode of the Bombcast please.

Dumb question....Is there going to be a video archive?

The other pictures.

uh huh

uh huh

yeaaaaaaaaa

Yes.

@ryleknuckles: This is relevant to my interests as well

Making love to the camera in the Lang Zone.

All right!!! Been looking forward to this becoming official!

I wish they would continue dating them rather than numbering.

Top down!

The first ever episode of the Giant Bomb podcast

I am not red e.

As much as I appreciate you guys for doing this. I'm going to stick with the audio version.

Congratulations guys! I am still gonna be listening to it but glad others appreciate it!

WE GOT A LIVE ONE HERE FOLKS

Not interested in watching podcasts, but I'm happy for those that want this. I'm glad it's not affecting the podcast's release for the time being.

I love it. Also, thank you for getting rid of the unused microphones.

NUMERO UNO VIDEO ESPECIAL, MUY PICANTE

Edit: I can't watch this, the audio is such a ritual thing to me. I'm glad it exists, but it's like something isn't right.

Nice. :)

Awesome. Now, I am spoilt for choice. I can't get distracted.

Wait! Are you numbering these now instead of putting on the date?

The future!

Nice going everyone. This was fun to watch. I plan to watch many more. Congrats.

holy living fuck do these adults actually think corn is a vegetable

A lot of fun joining in with the convos through chat. I think i actually paid closer attention to what they were saying by watching it, tbh.

I hope it proves popular enough to carry on for as long as possible/forever.

@cloneslayer: Seems like it!

This was fun to watch. I think I would watch this whenI could, only thing I'd mention is that the polls were accepting clicks but not showing results (for me, I think it might have been working for others)

Most adult humans do not care, since corn's scientific classification has no effect on their lives in the slightest.

Anyone else not seeing this on their feeds? At least, it's not showing on pocketcasts for me.
