Okay so I apologize for newfagging it up, but I've seen these posted and just have no idea what the numbers on the left mean. Is that where the podcast ranks on the service? The August dips are very large it looks like.

Yes. Overall ranking on Apple podcasts. Spotify doesn't track very well. Chartable pulls its Apple podcast data directly from Apple.

I thought the post Jeff drop in traffic was temp but this past week saw a big dip.

That said I wouldn't be surprised if one thing he said is true, that is, that his child was molested by one of the pedophiles he's associated with for years.

Every other accusation he made is actually something he himself was doing, I don't see why this would be any different, especially given his previous statements on the subject

Who knows the what/where/who of his kids but we know he can't use words like groomed and groomer now, so maybe that factors into it.

>Isla
Ian has always and will always by an insufferable artsy douche (faggot). Easy Allies is dead. Managing has been absolutely terrible with people like Damiani and Ian working comms. Kyle was fun but terribly jaded and for all the things he did know, there were 7 more that he knew shit about.

Brad, Huber, Blood and Don should leave and build their own thing like the GVG fags did.

EDIT: Imagine complaining about GTA and Dave Chapelle making fun of trannies and in the same breath complaining that people are too sensitive holy shit.

Kyle left years ago. And Brad left this year, from what i understand he may still do voice over but he is mostly a stay at home dad for his sick kid.

What's wrong with his kid? Wasn't it Brandon the one who left? Also Ben is gone too.

Brandon and Ben both left recently. EA is dead in the water and watching the troon captain go down with the ship is like an artfag version of Titanic.
 
I tried listening to Jeff Gerstmann's podcast. It was kind of awful. He went on to talk about Rockstars new corporate culture. Says its "better now" because the developers are being treated well and not pushed into slave labor, but he has "heard" the pacing of development is too slow, so its also bad thing. Also, any content creator's who criticize the direction of the new GTA is "anti-woke", and "gets paid to complain about things in their mother's basement." Which is ironic, as a grown man who makes a living on the kindness of others through Patreon, I feel like this was a incredibly bad take. Considering his Patreon income feeds his children, I found it rather amusing he still tries to frame anyone with a opinion other than his as beneath him.

Jeff always needed a foil like Ryan, Dan, or even Ben to get him animated. Jeff was the cornerstone of GiantBomb because it seemed like he was the only one who had knowledge of video games beyond being a hobby, but on his own I can't imagine with how depressed and low energy he is that his content wouldn't be torture to consume.

I haven't even tried listening yet. Is it still just him rambling into a microphone, alone, for three hours?

100%. Subject would come up, Dan would say something patently retarded and embarrassing, Brad would steer it back on topic and back to sanity, and then Jeff would drop some actual knowledge or a relevant story or what have you.
