Finishing up today's podcast :'(

The moments where they get silent... feels like they're so lost. Glad they were able to get together and just talk about it.
 
I was watching an old stream and thought this was hilarious.

Lovin them Uncrustables.

Someone with skills higher than I needs to add text to that gif of Ryan eating the Uncrustable that says "With a name like Smuckers... it has to be good!"
 
No, I believe this an impromptu stream with the purpose of Vinny testing out the equipment. Might have also been after one of the TNTs. But definitely not after any live live show.

That makes it so much better. Just a bunch of drunk friends hanging out with luchadeer on a random night. I know a lot of guys get upset when the podcast or UPF's stray away from video game talk, but those are my favorite times.

I love hearing about what kind of malt liquor Jeff likes or how Vinny put a hole in his wall. Seeing these guys hang and shoot the shit is why I continually come back to the site. Even now, without Ryan, you still get that same feeling of chemistry and camaraderie; there's certainly pain that comes with that feeling now, but I'm glad it's there. It shows how much these guys and the community care.
 
Was this recorded after the first Big Live Live Show Live?

This was the era when they were brought by Whiskey Media and moved into their office with the Bar. They ordered a bunch of new live streaming equipment and they did a late night stream test. Putting the green screen through it paces and other effects. I think this is a test right before the first big live live show live.
 
Found the first email reply I ever got when I emailed the podcast when I was filling in hosting a friends radio show.

So I'm hosting a drive time radio over the next few weeks, its the first time I have been on air hosting a show. Normally my radio experiences have been behind the scenes stuff (audio editing.. looking stuff up and so on)

I was wondering if the bombcast crew had any tips about hosting a show.

Sure! Here goes: whatever it is that we do, DO THE EXACT OPPOSITE.

Love,

Bombcast!

It was good advice because it was for a college radio thing and the show I worked on was nominated for a award for media students here. So thanks.
 
Does anyone have the makers mark, agave, lemon juice cocktail recipe they keep talking about. Been googling but want to make sure I find the right one.

They were never bought by Whiskey. Whiskey started GB.

Unless you mean brought by Whiskey to the new office, then yeah, they were. Whiskey wanted everybody under one roof, and the original basement obviously couldn't fit that.
 
This whole thing sucks. I hope the guys come out of this fine and the site continues on as we know it. Wont be the same without Ryan though...
 
The Ryan Davis Tribute Art Corner
The GB Facebook page has a head start, but I'll give it a shot. I'm looking out across the GB Forums, Gaf, the PA Forums, Something Awful and Tumblr atm and just anywhere else I stumble across. Link me to anything new you find, please. There's actually two up on the facebook page right now that i can't source or find if I plug it into google image search... (this one and this one)

Fox playing some tribute music






















BONUS (older art not actually drawn in tribute but still rad):

 
Thank you, Jintor. So many great pieces.

I really like Skidd's for some reason. This is going to sound weird, but it reminds me of certain pieces of World of Warcraft fanart that I've seen over the years :lol
 
God damnit man. I am not an emotional person but this still has me fucked up. I can't believe he's gone. I can't believe I won't ever hear his stupid ass laugh again. Everything here and on twitter is so great but I can't even stand to look at it. :(
