ampersandrewGiant Bomb also going through some shit right now. They just put up a podcast with a big middle finger to their new bosses, and it got pulled.
EDIT: Giant Bomb may be dead as of this afternoon.
Fuck. Long time, first time. I’m a few episodes behind. Any additional info available? Links?
See my other comment below, but the gist of it is that they were told to pause streaming for a while as everyone tries to figure out a path forward. They put out one Bombcast that rebelled against the new Fandom “values”, and you can find a link to it if you look through Bluesky or the Giant Bomb reddit. They’re still paused, and it’s been about a week now. It might be the end of Giant Bomb, in which case, Grubb, Mike, and Dan have sworn to keep doing Blight Club, and the others are probably preparing their parachutes too. It also might not be the end of Giant Bomb; nothing’s been decided yet, and everyone currently still has their jobs.
Aww geez. Thanks for the summary duder. Been at a conference in the bay so kinda detached from it all. Gonna be wild if Fandom is the shitdicks that kill GB.
If Episode 888 is the last Bombcast, it will leave the world with the integrity that created it in the first place. Give it a listen, when you get around to it.
Copy that. Found a drop on archive.org. Planning to grab it when I’m back home. Cheers friend!
Awesome. Yet another reason to donate to the IA!
Breaking news: Grubb seems to have been let go.
What the fuck.
