Just announced on twitch.tv/pax, live from PAX East. The reaction was so negative to what happened with Giant Bomb that Fandom sold to Jeff Grubb and Jeff Bakalar. It sounds like this deal closed yesterday. Along with those two, Dan Ryckert and Jan Ochoa are now co-owners. Mike Minotti was informed of this deal this morning, and he will be the fifth co-owner when he comes back from Disney World. Blight Club and Grubb's morning news show sound like they are returning this coming week. This PAX panel is officially episode #889 of the Giant Bombcast.

I don't know these people. Should I?

I knew the old crew. Still watch Jeff on YouTube.

I see Dan is there. He's too uneducated and incurious American for my tastes. Bro doesn't know shit about anything but wrestling. It's play up for laughs but it's just cringe to me.

Wow, there is someone else out there that feels the same as I do about Dan!
