I have some good news for you: they did that literally yesterday, lol.I still watch and listen to GB every day.
But seriously guys. It's time to bring back the Powerbombcast. There's never been a better time to talk wrestling.

They also did the revival episode a little before Fight for the Fallen aired. So check that one out as well
On pushing premium: They have huge drives to sell premium 2 or 3 times a year, and have done so every single year. The only difference now is they don't do Big Live Live Show Live anymore. Which I am ok with given that the logistics are wild.
Yes!I don't understand why people give GB shit for being cynical about dumb industry shit, yet watch stuff like Easy Allies. They're an unironic version of The Nerd Crew parody that Red Letter Media does.
It's the only time they make a vocal push for premium, and they're currently doing one now, so that's my conclusionIs that what the thread's premise for a greater push for premium was about? I thought of the premium sale as well but figured it must be something else because they've been doing these for as far as I can remember.

I just want to briefly talk about how this thread started with not one, but two false premises.
On appealing to gen z: this was a joke made by Dave Nilasca and Brad on UPF about spam emails they receive. Beyond that, they're not trying to cater to a specific audience as much as their average age has dropped significantly with Abby, Jan, Ben, and Dan, so of course their content feels different.

This is a good way to put it lol.I 100% agree with everyone saying East has better energy. If even one person from West is "on assignment" the energy balance gets so messed up it feels like a writers strike episode.
Yes. This needs to be talked about more. Bring back the couch!I hate how West got rid of their comfy and casual couch setup and replaced it with a dumb, overdesigned sports show desk.
This is trueGiant Bomb has always had ups and downs throughout the years. It's sort of like SNL where you remember all the classic sketches and forget about the not so good ones. We remember the fortune street TNT but forgot about all the boring ones
edit: I will say this, currently the site is missing someone who can riff with Jeff out west like Vinny, Dan, and Ryan could
Also true. East has so much energy.yeah, I gotta say, Bakalar and Mahardy are pretty killer. east didn't need the extra firepower but it got it
I'm not trying to rag on anybody, but Ben being in basically every single West video just kills their content for me. Again, nothing against him but I personally find him a bit annoying.
This is my issue. I have stuck with their E3 coverage, but I just don't have the time at work or home to listen to those long podcasts.I'll be honest and say I have completely dropped off of all their content except for their E3 coverage. Kind of come full circle. Started by only watching their E3 coverage, was Premium for a few years, and now I'm back to only watching their E3 coverage.
I just don't have the time for 2:30+ hour long podcasts (especially two a week). I still follow them all on Twitter though for their news takes.
