Hope they're all doing well over there.
- runevault 4y agoIf you didn't know Jeff Gerstmann is out at GB and he was the last of the original guard (Vinny, Brad, and Alex left like... a year ago?).
- ascagnel_ 4y agoThe founding GiantBomb staff members have all left since the sale to Red Ventures: - Vinny, Brad, and Alex left last year, and later re-grouped and started Nextlander, which is basically GB but without having to build their own platform (live Twitch streams, on-demand videos on YouTube, and Simplecast- and Patreon-hosted podcasts), and Brad works with another Whiskey alum, Will Smith, on a separate tech podcast and open-source specific podcast - Jeff left a few months ago and is basically doing the same as Nextlander, only largely on his own Nextlander has done a few things with GiantBomb, most recently a video around the new Splatoon game[0], but Jeff hasn't appeared directly yet.
