I would love a cameo from Brad on A More Civilized Age. And I recently watched the Twilight series with my fiancé.. It is not actually good. Even drunk... Nextlander is the independent Giant Bomb we needed. I got attached when Vinny joined the Hotspot back in the Gamespot days.

Thanks for talking about Boycott / Divest / Sanctions. I was excited about Doom but I’ve decided to cancel my Gamepass until things improve.

I understand the sentiment from the crew on Giant Bomb, but IMO Nextlander is the best thing in games media for at least over a decade.
