Guys, you really stepped it up this week having Dr. Creed on the cast. This truly makes me feel much better about the previous Black Panther conversation and even though I am not on the Reddit, I am really glad to hear y'all took the feedback to heart. My only critique is I wanted more!! Such a great guest and honestly, a topic which could easily go on for another hour. Hope to see him on GoG. =)

So did they end up doing an Oscar stream? I know they were thinking about it.

EDIT: Nevermind. I just saw on Twitter that they cancelled it.

When Greg called out for it to look at her boyfriend's beard, my first thought was "Ummm, does Jess realize what's about to happen?" Hahaha. It played out exactly like I thought it would.

Thank you Tim for quieting down the dialogue during the Direct reaction. It was hard to watch at first. Too many cooks maybe? Anyway get hyped!!! #Crash4Smash

Lol if they aren't commenting what's the point? This is why watchalongs feel worthless to me.
I love the comments but it was a bit much I think and hard to understand. I still go back and watch the 2 person or 3 person reactions for their comments. I think 4 was a lot though. Jared has a lot of hype and love for so many games, a lot to say, and it was hard to hear Tim, Greg, and Andy.

I love the unique knowledge and perspective Jared can bring, and he really does seem like he's one of the nicest people in the industry. But, his communication style is so different from the rest of the group, I feel like it can introduce stutters to the flow of a show.

Kinda Funny Games Daily is my favorite podcast, and my favorite show that KF does. I appreciate how the show has grown over the last year, and love the variety of hosts that have been rotated in. After 3 weeks, pairings with Jared have become the "lowest tier" as far as hosts are concerned, in my opinion - which doesn't mean I don't like him, just that I prefer the other hosts. I think Jared works well on KFGD overall, and that his voice works best in a two host format. I don't think he works as well on Gamescast, or, for example, in the recent Direct Reaction. It's likely he's still acclimating to these shows and the KF crew, these are just my thoughts/feedback so far.

Watchalongs are not for deep analysis for the series history. Once Jared realize that he will be fine. Although honestly they will always need to reign him in because he could take hours to talk about one game or series lol.

I hadn't heard of Jared before since I only watch KF sparingly (mostly special stuff like reactions), but I have to say it was pretty jarring to watch early on. I have nothing against him but he clashed so much with the other three's style in this. It got a bit better after Tim told him.

To be fair adding Andy was of a stroke of pure luck, because he fits so well.

I have to agree that his inclusion so far has felt alot more jarring than Andy/Whitta, and even Danny/Andrea.

I'm just glad Jared stopped the constant,

"thank you, awww"
"thank you, awww"
"thank you, awww"
"thank you, awww"
"thank you, awww"
"thank you, awww"
"thank you, awww"

Was getting much.

I'm calling it now that I think he won't last until the end of the year. I think he's a nice guy and all, but I don't think he gels with the rest of the guys. He's good to be a special guest every once in a while about a specific topic he knows really well. His knowledge about games is amazing and I like when he goes into long discussions about them, but only when it's required.

No way. I fully believe he will find his stride and by the end of the year you'll feel the same way about Jared that everyone does about Andy.

Man, Batman v Superman fans are such a brittle group ;p

Greg posted a joke script page from Reddit on Twitter. It parodied the Martha! scene from BvS and the fans were getting angry at Greg. He responded to each post with the "BvS was a Good Movie" shirt to put out the flames. Some of the tweets called people who didn't understand the scene as dense and stupid and it was wrong to have such an important scene parodied. I don't know about any of you, but when I saw the movie, I don't think anyone around me took that scene seriously. I knew it was coming, so I just looked for the reactions.

Edit- Also, going by Jared's Twitter account, I guess his wife just gave birth or they adopted a kid. Either way, congrats Jared!

Edit 2- So, turns out, his tweet was meant as a reply to someone. There is no baby. All those congratulations that were sent to him must've been so confusing.

I checked out some of the Xavier Woods playing MHW with Greg stream and it's a fun stream to have on while I play MHW myself. Fun lil random chatter.

Stolen from /r/KindaFunny:
in 2010 Greg suggested how to westernized MH .
http://www.ign.com/articles/2010/01/08/lets-westernize-monster-hunter
Gotta say he was right and Capcom listened. Obviously others were suggesting the same thing but when the biggest gaming outlet write it, it is a bigger deal to companies.
and that's how people reacted rofl:
http://www.ign.com/boards/threads/greg-miller-wants-to-westernize-monster-hunter.188407151/

MMMMMM. I hope every "idiot" there grabbed a healthy piece of crow before they sat down to play Monster Hunter World. :P

People will make so many excuses just to exclude.

Greg, excellent guest and conversation on Monday's KFGD. I am so glad you listened to some of the community feedback and are approaching the conversation surrounding diversity and representation in games and nerd culture so earnestly. It was awesome hearing from Xavier and Spawn on Me. Keep up the great work!

Who the fuck is this Lorne Lanning? He peddled anti-vaxxer and climate denier bullshit on the Morning Show.

Loved today KFGD with Jason. Great conversation about unions, GDC, & leaks ethics.

...What really? That's silly. :( I can't ever get through the Morning Show. Like, I love when they talk about a given topic but not so much when it's just aimless chat.

I agree, huge bummer to hear that I've loved Lanning before. I missed this episode actually. :/ However, I gotta disagree with you in that I love the aimlessness of the Morning Show haha. That's just me though.

First off, Bloodworth was amazing. One of the best in the business. Glad it was a more conversational KFGD.

Second, Damon Baker was a perfect guest for Gamescast. That conversation had some real behind-the-scenes nuggets you don't get from Nintendo all that often. And Jared, your questions were on point! I feel like you shine with guests, stepping back and listening. Maybe that Soup experience coming through?

Finally, can you guys please get Nintendo guy from DICE one of these days? He seemed like a cool dude.

The show hasn't gone up for non-patreons yet, so I'm not sure how aware of everyone is of this, but have you all filled out your brackets for the 1st Annual Kinda Funny Best Friend Tournament?? I thought this was a hilarious idea, so here's my completed bracket:

Please feel free to smack talk my bracket. It is appreciated and, in fact, encouraged. But here's a blank bracket to fill out yourselves! Got it from twitter, @cameronken designed it! May the best friend win. :P

In case any of you were unsure what the tournament above was referring to, fellow best friend Cameron Kennedy put together an amazing promo from the GoG episode that explains it all.
