The founding GiantBomb staff members have all left since the sale to Red Ventures:
- Vinny, Brad, and Alex left last year, and later re-grouped and started Nextlander, which is basically GB but without having to build their own platform (live Twitch streams, on-demand videos on YouTube, and Simplecast- and Patreon-hosted podcasts), and Brad works with another Whiskey alum, Will Smith, on a separate tech podcast and open-source specific podcast
- Jeff left a few months ago and is basically doing the same as Nextlander, only largely on his own
Nextlander has done a few things with GiantBomb, most recently a video around the new Splatoon game[0], but Jeff hasn't appeared directly yet.
It was when Ryan Davis died that I realized just how intimate the podcasting medium could be. While I also loved the rest of the crew, I couldn't listen to Giant Bomb without him. It was just too sad.
