Come on bud it was a very harmless joke. Especially in the pure fact that its talking about how sex & the human body is censored when we have games of extreme violence. In no way should it even be considered to be linked to the misgony in the gaming community
I think the terrible bigotry against women in the industry and just the world in general stems from parents, people around a person, and just overall culture. The terrible treatment of women has been around a lot longer than making girls boobs diggly around in hilarious unrealstic ways.
I mean if youre a women then this is a lot different discussion as I cant be one to tell you what you take offensively
Next mini-series after Fancy Fifteen please: Bosman & Hinck's Video Game Detective Agency
BDG? Brian David Gilbert?! :O
Also, yes, fantastic idea on Frame Trap, Ben could bring the guests on one-by-one!

Yep. I had to double check if I got the joke right and sure enough Ian does follow him.
I don't remember the second one. But the first one was about how Polygon is doing the Final Bosman now.
After Kyle said his school had Funniest Student and Class Clown and that Bosman won the Class Clown award, Ian said "Ah, you went to the same school as the Polygon guy?"
BDG surely did kill all my desire for a new Final Bosman run and I'm grateful for that. I still had this awful nagging voice in my head that kept asking "bu bu bu but what if Kyle did Final Bosman instead??!!!". Kyle's comment on the Box Peek Ep. 5 Q&A killed that sentiment once and for all and BDG filled that hole it left. You can't really compare the two shows because Brian doesn't seem to do commentaries or editorials, but I'm still much happier. Brian's videos are a little like if Ian did Final Bosman instead and that's super awesome. It's definitely the kind of short-form gaming content I've been longing for a while now.
Brian on Easy Update would be fantastic.
I really don't see how BDG's current content is comparable to The Final Bosman, it's just the suit. The Scrundler bits were similar but he retired them when Week in Revue ended.
That was it.
Favorite EZA guest so far? Ben Hanson for me. Man, he's really made the GI podcast something worth watching.
Yep never miss the GI Show now, Hanson is terrific as are most of the folks at GI. It's the closest podcast to Frame Trap that I have found and enjoyed.
How could it possibly be anyone other than Luke Arnold?
I love that someone asked for Kyle, so Geoff went and found him just scrunched up in a seat haha
Man, Geoff is great. You can tell he puts his heart and soul into The Game Awards. Finding that balance between "I want this to be taken seriously" and "but it still needs to be entertaining" is not an easy task.
I'm not putting up all of these in this thread (this is #5), but people seem particularly interested in this one. In short, 2 Milly will have a difficult case to make due to the way Copyright works.
And he asked him if the show will be good and he says "top 2" 😂
This is really good Rick! I like the format, and you're very clear in expressing the legalese in a digestible way to the audience, or at least in my estimation.
Hey, thanks! I'm continuing to work out a few of the kinks, but I think it's coming together. Wanted something I could keep to a short pipeline! I appreciate your checking it out!
Followed Hubers plea from a while back and gave ac odyssey a chance(~20 hours in) haven't played one since black flag and it's very comfy to play. As someone that has grown up on certain eurojank rpgs(like two worlds, gothic, etc) I'm amused and surprised by how reminiscent the game has been of that. But more in the sense of this is what those rpgs would be if they had the resources for polish and the manpower to build these huuuuuuge environments.
They don't do betting for TGA as they're involved in it.
Streaming reactions and then jumping straight I to Smash after though!
This has been one of the more entertaining Cup of Jones thus far. That surprise appearance! :P
I was considering waiting to watch until tomorrow since I've already got an allies backlog but sounds like I'm going to have to change my plans.
Happy birthday Blood, thanks for always looking out to keep the communication to the fans up in bad and good times. Cheers.
Even if something similar were to happen I doubt Kyle would keep "the brand". It would change dramatically.
I literally acknowledged the fact it was a harmless joke in my post but you go off my friend. I disagree with all your other points. If you can't see that "overall culture" includes shit like boob jiggle and sexualised character designs I don't know what to tell you.
I think you haven't fully considered what you are implying with this take. Firstly, the brand The Final Bosman was lost because Gametrailers was shut down, the option to continue the Final Bosman did not exist because he was fired from that job. Secondly, he then did not sit on the general "Bosman at a desk" brand, as he did Bosman at Home and Dear Bosman, which both ended for different reasons. I think it is safe to assume from the fact that he is not doing a Bosman at a desk show, and that he explicitly and repeatedly states that he has no desire to do one of those shows, that he was not satisfied with his attempts to continue The Final Bosman, or is at least ready to move on. Thirdly, your post implies in some way that Kyle would not be successful if he created a new similar show. I can't say outright that this is incorrect, but judging by the growing audience of Easy Allies and the never ending discussion about the Final Bosman returning (your post being an example of this), I highly doubt it would be poorly received.
It also might be worth considering that if you were Kyle and just spent 1-2 years on Box Peek, a completely unique and original show that you are the sole creator of, it probably is disheartening reading comments saying you are simply sitting on your own brand.
This is really the only sensible way to sit through these things.
I know Kyle and Jones won't be there, the rest of them though?
Probably Huber, Damiani, Ben's there now so I imagine he's gonna stick around and Blood is always there (he sleeps behind Lightning)
Ok. Set the alarm for 1:30 am (I'm in the UK), and will take a nap before I watch Game Awards through the EZA feed. See you back in 2 hours!
New patron supporter here.
I'm super noob with Patreon and Twitch so forgive me: are those EZA stickers on Twitch and the "A" tag available only for Twitch Prime users?

Those are for any Twitch subs. (5 dollars a month on twitch or use your one free sub Twitch Prime provides).
Welcome!
EZA Emotes are for Twitch subs, the A represents how long they've been subbed.
Going by Cup of Jones Damiani will probably be away getting started on the Smash review/playthrough in earnest. Probably Ben, Brad, Ian, Blood, Huber for TGAs.
Do we know if Blood is going to be there, with it being his b-day?
