The Giant Bomb Cast. I'm your host Ryan Davis joined by Vinnie Caravilla. What up, Brad?

0:33.9

You make it up. This was NPR day for a second. And Jeff Gerstman. Hello. Hey, Jets, how y'all doing?

0:40.8

Doing all right. Good. Great. Actually packed weeks. Let's get to it. Vinnie. Yo. How you been, man?

0:46.9

Doing all right. Yeah. What you been playing? Played Batman. You played Batman. That game is great.

0:52.5

It is moving on. Fantastic. I think we could all agree. Batman Arkham is silent. It's pretty
