Yes.

Been a fan pretty much since the beginning so I’ll never turn my back on GB. Altho it’s sad to see so many new people come and go after a couple years. Update: everyone is gone and they can’t make a good podcast to save their lives. It’s as bad as it used to be good. Ryan is rolling in his grave....Read full review »

Have been listening to this podcast since the start, through cast changes, company changes, and just life in general. The Bombcast is fun, engaging, and it’s just nice to listen to a group of people who all genuinely love what they are doing. Love you guys !

Listening to the old days, 08-12 era. Edit: it’s 2023 and all the old podcasts are riddled with ads. Every 10-15 minutes there is an ad break. I stopped listening after Jeff left and the original crew was officially all gone. I suppose they don’t even want old content to be worth listening to,...Read full review »

Decided to give new cast a chance and gave up after a few episodes. Jan & Bakalar are the worst about this but others don't help. Has become less about games and more about virtue signaling.Read full review »

Över tio år senare och Bombcast är fortfarande bästa podcasten om spel. Alla personerna i gruppen är väldigt kunniga och roliga!

I'm not a bitter old fan from 10+ years ago. I'm just someone who likes game discussions that are insightful and entertaining. This show very rarely provides that. The first half hour is unlistenable. The current crew is a charisma black hole, which is why adding a single normal person...Read full review »

The GB crew is always loads of fun to listen to. I look forward to it each week.
KFillinger via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/22/23
Been listening since around 2014 and really enjoy the current crew. I really enjoy the current podcast crew plus Minotti and Bailey as regulars in the rotating chair. The only reason this isn’t getting 6 stars is there isn’t enough Tamoor on the cast. I get the man is busy but he had me as a...Read full review »

DJkkkifiyyckycy via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/20/23
Yo what is up with these reviews. Seems like each of these peeps have been personally offended by every member of the crew or something. I love the bombcast, I catch it every week and have for several years. The core crew right now of the Grubb, Bakalar, Jan is great and the rotating 4th (or 5th)...Read full review »

Giant Bomb no longer exists, and "they" insist on deleting Ryan and Jeff's legacy. The actual bombcast episodes exist on the internet. Download them and preserve it for posterity.Read full review »

I’m 20 minutes in, waiting for some semblance of a discussion of video games to begin.
wutreviews33 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/27/23
I like this crew and their dynamic together, but there is no one on this earth I want to listen to for 2.5 hours. With a show that long it’s inevitable that half will be filler and rambling. Give me a tight 30mins or 1hr focused on the game content and I’ll be back for sure.
ActorGuy123 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/24/23
Many older episodes are missing
rtfeasel via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/23/23
Jeff Bakalar needs to go. I just can’t take listening to him any longer. He adds nothing, is so smug, wastes so much time with his self-fellating rants - dude loves to hear himself talk, is STILL quoting I Think You Should Leave… what a coincidence. Dude is awful, don’t even get me started on the...Read full review »
Chris Hashemi via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/09/23
The show has become a self-praising circle of rotating desperate casts with no consistency or direction. The brand and essence of Giant Bomb as built by the friendship and unique interactions between those groups mostly held up until the start of this decade but is now just a flimsy name that...Read full review »

stokespd via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 05/29/23
I have a deep and enduring love for the history of this show and a lot of the cast that has been alongside it through the years. This iteration is no exception, but I just can’t help to compare it to how strong the show has been in the past. I love the hosts and the conversation but I have a...Read full review »

I was a fan for many years, once jeff gerstmann left it was over. Jeff bakalar is annoying, dan is fun but in small doses. Jeff grub is amazing and needs to distance himself from the failing giant bomb. Jan is also awesome and needs to leave also and do his own thing. Everyone else good was...Read full review »

Johnanomous via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/26/23
If you aren’t interested in west coast social and political hot takes mixed in with your video game news dont listen to these guys. They were good years ago and have completely alienated a huge part of the gaming demographic.
Blake898 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/21/23
This feels less like a familiar community and more like some new ownership’s unloved asset I can accept when people move on, but when people are let go, it is impossible to invest in Giantbomb when some faceless entity could terminate a content creator at a moment’s notice. I tried to stick with...Read full review »
CharlieKf via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/15/23
Considering how influential Giantbomb has been and what a blast the show used to be, listening to it now is just depressing. I don’t know if it was the poor corporate decisions or just the old staff wanting to try different things (a lot of the old podcast crew can be found on other, independent...Read full review »

Rest in Peace GiantBomb. Cause of death = Woke Mind Virus.
Gay man g via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/09/23
30 minutes into a typical episode and they’re discussing things like what they ate that week or buying a new toilet. I suppose this would be bearable if they were funny, but it’s just typical irrelevant banter you would hear in a workplace break room. No idea why this is popular, listen to ACG...Read full review »

I still enjoy the podcast for the most part but it has definitely fallen a long way from what it used to be and the recent events and layoffs really doesn’t give me hope it’ll get better. Hopefully everyone stays employed.
fjkjvbj via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/28/23
This is a fantastic podcast for you! The cast is full of intellectual content creators that are extremely passionate about their art. They speak to so many different audiences and have a great community of listeners going back to 2008. They are known for discussing games media, but you will...Read full review »

I only started listening to GB in 2014 or 2015 so I’m definitely not an OG but this show has gone down hill so far in recent years and it’s definitely not the same show it once was. Jeff, Alex, Brad and Vinny all leaving was the nail in the coffin for me. RIP Giant Bomb.
Look An Alien via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/15/22
It all feels so forced now, rip. Great back catalogue
CpnHowdy11 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/27/22
While I still like everyone on the show, most episodes have no rudder and feels more “fly on the wall” of loose conversations instead of a full show. Jan’s great, but a non-existent host, which causes endless cross-talk and non-sequeters. I can’t focus on what is being discussed for most...Read full review »

UpUpDownDown81 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/14/22
Used to love this podcast then they shed all the good members and finally Jeff leaving (being fired) was the last straw. RIP to Giant Bomb it was alot of fun.
JakeO85 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/26/22
4 minutes of ads before a super long musical intro… they actually start speaking at about 5min in. Jeff gone. Brad and Vinny gone for a while now. It was already hard enough losing Ryan. Now, I just don’t see what reason there is for this podcast to exist. Clean. CLEAN?! Why? I came for the...Read full review »

Still pretty good. Jess is insufferable but I throw no shade. All people aren’t for everyone and 1 out of 7 ain’t bad. Recommend.
FeelsMid via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/05/22
10 years of my favorite show. This is not the same. Everyone scraping for time on air and repeating themselves. This show has become a clone of Kinda Funny content. Sad. Jan, stop pointing out segues. That is bad radio.
Cateraaade via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/15/22
GB has had its time in the sun, but now its really just a shell of what it used to be.
Lyudmila Pavlichenko via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/11/22
No humor. They hate the games, gamers and game creators. I’m not into their political ideologies or the other nonsense. What’s the point of listening? My old review: The show is amazing. Funny. Smart. Intelligent. Best interviews. Jeff is the smartest & funniest man in games podcasting. Drew...Read full review »
