That's a real bummer. I wonder how West is going to reconcile it.

Drew just tweeted he and Danny will continue to do an F1 podcast. Not that all is well, but it softens the blow.

time to start a go fund me to move vinny back to the west coast
curious that now the beastcast is at capacity and giantbomb prime is down 2. Wonder if NoClip is working out for danny or if he would entertain the idea of coming to GB. Cant think of any other personality i would really want on that side, on the production side I honestly cant think of anybody.
not happening i know

Another great #DrewMoment is him figuring out the twist of MGSV almost instantly.

Bet he goes to twitch. Sucks he's leaving. He was one of my GB favorites.
Better to hire smart than hire quickly.

It's been more than six months since Austin left, and they're barely starting to look at resumes.
you work there?

Man it sucks he's leaving. I wish him the best with whatever he plans on doing

Jeff recently said it in a Jar Time.
The job posting(s) has only been up for a little bit. Not sure why you attribute Austin leaving as a time they were hiring more people.

Wow. This is a huge bummer. But I wish him the best of luck. Really love Drew and his very diverse taste in games.

Drew is leaving, I didn't see it coming ...and I'm not in shock!
this shit happened so often now that I've become somewhat resilient. That's awful...

I've never been more of a fan of Drew than I am at this time and I am sad to see him leave GB.
Wow, was not expecting this at all. Seeing Drew leave is incredibly sad, but I wish him nothing but the best and I hope whatever he does brings him even more happiness than Giantbomb seemed to bring him. It's been a pleasure watching Drew over the years, and I know he's going to succeed at whatever his next endeavor is, but he definitely will be missed.
Yeah he's been there since the beginning
Damn, this is sad. Been following Giant Bomb for a decade at this point, going to be really weird to not have Drew around anymore. I mean GB's had departures before, but it was never any of the long term core people.
Hopefully GB West can bring on some quality new people sometime in the future. Getting sort of thin over there.

I remember something exactly like this on one of the bombcasts.
It just makes it better.

Damn drew is awesome. Best of luck to his future endeavors.
The job post only recently went up. Likelihood is that Dan's transfer held that back because the hiring practice of big companies is stupid sometimes. While Dan was in the West they couldn't post for his job as it was filled and the job in the east was pending, sk you can't advertise. I've run into stupid stuff like that constantly.
Oh c'mon! Patrick left, Austin left, Mary left, Danny left, Dan moved. All the people surrounding the crew left. And now Drew, one of the OG's, is going, too?
For a long while, it felt like going to Giant Bomb was arriving at THE dream. It changed and molded over the years to be sure, yet it felt like it had stabilized for just a brief moment (that being the Austin departure and Dan coast change). Drew was a key part in that. Maaaaaaaaan.
Good on him to reach for his life goals, but gosh darn it, I don't know what Giant Bomb West is going to do without him.

Ugh, sucks to hear this. Drew is fantastic and just an interesting person on top of that. Best of luck to him.
LOVE Giant Bomb, but add me to the list that's shocked how slow they've been with hiring. Dan announced he was leaving for Giant Bomb East in September, it's now February. Drew leaving might have been a shock, but Dan's position and a video guy out East have been known for a long, long time. In the mean time, GB West content will unfortunately dip even further.
I think Dan might have been right, SF might be the hellscape he's always said it was. I fully support Jeff's halfbaked plan of buying a block in Detroit and starting anew.
