Giant Bombcast Let's Talk About Memberships!

well this was a surprise  
awesome features, the 1 hour bombcast thing will get some backlash from the community but personally im with u guys on your decisions all the way, ill do the monthly membership for now

Where do I insert money?

Do I get Whiskey Media-branded whiskey upon membership?

WHATTT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Awesome...listen to this when I finish with the bombcast.

SO MANY DIFFERENT PODCASTS

"I'll jangle your keys."

Infocast!

boss intro music

Three podcasts in three days? Awesome.

Finally, I was wondering when you guys would reveal this thing

This is my 3rd podcast I've listened to this week, ugh. Well, time to blow another half an hour or so *sigh*

wootwhat

Interesting, I'm in. Power to the independents.

I'm totally up for this; show me where to sign.

Day one.

I don't know . . . 

Is dave snider the boss of bosses over at Whiskey Media?
 
edit: always forgetting about animevice :(

I dont have much use for the annual subscription, but I think I want to throw money at Whiskey Media anyway

Quests in the mobile version, HELL YES!

Hm.

Triple podcast!  Is there a meme for that?

listening now.... hoping for no members only content. Please dear god.

Points! needs to come back, if thats part of the membership i will sign up

hmm, still ads in the monthly subscription but not in the annual. But if you are paying you can just turn adblocking back on pretty guilt free, imo.

Wow, genuinely surprised at the price. I expected double that.

As much as I REALLY want this, being 17 and not having a credit card (or money for that matter) makes it impossible for the time being, hopefully I'll be able to support it in the future.

 I usually always hate paying for online subscriptions, but Whiskey Media sites are something special. I have relied heavily on Giant Bomb, Tested, Comic Vine, and now Screened on my daily multiple visits. All sites cover all my needed daily news and tons of great content on all my interest. I love what these sites are, and think highly of the people in front and behind the scenes. What you guys have done I am extremely pleased with, and will happily support Whiskey Media to continue the great experience. Great job guys and gals, all of you.  
 
PS: That shirt is also Effin amazing as well!    

Considering GB is more entertaining than all of the video gaming sites and channels combined I would love to give something back to them.

" hmm, still ads in the monthly subscription but not in the annual. But if you are paying you can just turn adblocking back on pretty guilt free, imo. "

SEPARATE BOMBCAST? Ugh. 

Pretty sure I'll get the annual. Definitely my favorite and most visited video game site.

Jeff said we're all getting ponies!

So are the T-Shirts a sort of limited edition thing? Or if I choose to upgrade a monthly subscription to a annual one will I still be able to get a shirt?

That's still terrible. It splits the community and eliminates a feature, something they said they weren't going to do. Bad idea. "

You'll be listening to a week old podcast if you want to listen to it in full. "

It sounds kinda sketchy, yeah.  I'm probably a little biased in their favor, because I have absolutely no qualms whatsoever about giving these guys all my money, so I will see little to no change. "

ready to give you my money

I would like to know how long the shirts will be available.

So I'm planning on supporting GB anyway because I love this site. But...hmm. Messing with the Bombcast, one of the pillars of Giant Bomb, eh? Kind of made me feel a bit uncomfortable to hear them explain and rationalize that decision, regardless of the points that were given. Careful, guys.

I would love to pay but, I am a broke student going to school. The Bombcast thing does not bother me that much, because I kind of listen to it broken up when I can. The thing that bothers me the most is that Free members will be missing this QA Friday show they talk about, just because I am a non-paying member, that can't afford it. Besides that I am ok with the membership stuff. 
 
Edit: When I get the money, You can bet your ass i will be buying a membership

spliting the bombcast makes it easier to digest for me 2hrs is a lot to listen to. and you are getting 2 hrs anyway just  not on that tuesday
