I'm still sticking with my personal version of events where Griffin just uploaded the first episode to Polygon's channel one day, without any notice or consultation of the other editors.

Very recently. I think they're learning that personality based stuff is where they're finding video success, hence putting peoples names in video titles more than they used to and things like that.

I was just listening to an old MBMBAM from like five years ago when they still did Twitter shoutouts and one of the them was @Babylonian from years before he was at Polygon

Has Nick been stalking and slowly infiltrating his way into the McElroy family?

Nick was an intern at Giant Bomb while Griffin and Justin were at Joystiq (and making occasional GB podcast appearances) so maybe he learned about MBMBAM through that connection. The gaming website community is a small and incestuous world.

Edit: Jesus, I completely forgot there was an Intern Podcast at GB that Nick hosted. He was really laying the groundwork early.

Just given the way the game works, I think the onus is more on the the players than on Griffin to not get hung up on one thing too long and keep the pace moving forward. One of the magical things about DMing is that no matter how much experience you have, no matter how well you know your players, no matter how meticulously you plan things, it'll always take way longer for your players to complete stuff than you expected them to.

Except sometimes they utterly clown on your main boss encounter and complete stuff way faster than you expected them to.

The fact that they started off with only occasional people coming up to them and ended barely able to move two steps without someone wanting a photo implies people were hunting them down from the stream, I bet that's the last time they try that.

The did the exact same stream tour thing last year and it was definitely a stark difference. There was a lot of wide open spaces and empty corridors, and I don't think a single person ever interrupted them. Opening E3 up to the public is a big move, although I don't know if it's necessarily a great idea or enough to revitalize the conference.

I wonder about Angus sometimes. I can't help bu speculate that his home situation planetside might have been less than stellar. I mean, he did move pretty much as far from home as he could possibly move, and he's ever once mentioned parents or caretakers other than BOB members.

He's got a grandpa at least

Welp, my friend tried to get me into this show for the longest time, but I didn't, because I couldn't stand Travis' voice (and to a lesser degree, Griffin and Justin's), and I kept trying to listen at work, and I couldn't follow the jokes and references.

Well, he said to try out Kenny Rogers Gamefaqs, and.... yeah, I'm in. Holy poo poo. Die in your sleep. And I'm over whatever dislike I had of their voices, they're fine now. The content makes it all ok.

Right now, I'm checking out Goofbusters, but are there any stand-out episodes I should check out next? I'm sure eventually I'll get to all of them, but I don't feel the need to start at #1 right now.

I had a tedious summer job in 2011 and went looking for podcast recommendations to fill the time. MBMBAM came up a lot so I checked it out and blew through their archive in that summer, listening ever since.

The only aspect of their success that bums me out is their increased audience meaning a higher number of vocal poo poo stirrers causing stuff like the brothers quitting the Facebook group and the outcry about Taako's skin color or whatever in the comic

I just wish it was like Giant Bomb where if I give them money directly I can have an ad free feed of the podcast so they aren't also indirectly making more money off my attention. The days of extreme restraints are long gone, there's only so much comedy you can wring out of mattresses, meal packs, flowers, and clothes lootboxes week after week.
