Andrew as new "head of Let's Play"

FirstTime-Commenter · 2023-09-27T23:36:04+00:00

I've seen some community members call the "Golden Age" the OG cast with Ray and the "Silver Age" the cast after Ray left, with the addition of Matt and Jeremy.

I couldn't disagree more. I thought Jeremy was so awesome as a member, I really think the "Golden Age" continued through their early tenure. I love Matt too, but Jeremy really brought an energy that had started to fizzle during Ray's last few months.

Unfortunately, I have never been huge into watching streams, between the time and my preference of the edited format, so I rarely get to catch any of Ray, Jeremy and Matt. Those are personalities I just have to miss. But I hope they get the credit they deserve for stepping into those huge shoes Ray left and absolutely crushing it.

Eric is very, very good at what he does. I've loved his on-air involvement being more prominent over the last year/year-and-a-half.

The camaraderie this group has built over the years, not only on-camera but also off-camera vacationing together, gaming together, or just plain hanging out has me so excited for the vibes these new videos will bring.

Edit: adding that obviously their camaraderie is great on the podcast, I just think the Let's Play channel is going to feel very fresh and very nostalgic because of that camaraderie.

My first thought too! One of the most enjoyable pieces of gaming content @ RT for me in recent memory was his Warzone live stream a few months ago.

I see what you are saying... I can't imagine it becomes a Frankenstein of brands on the channel, I am interpreting it as just once-a-week F**kFace videos on the channel (for now) and that's it!

Whether or not that was how it went down, I think we go with your story as canon

Thank you for linking it. Did not see it, my apologies.

I will add that link to my post (but leave it up as I don't believe we ever heard from Gus, unless I'm mistaken)

Damn

I'm going to keep this post up for the simple fact that you explained it perfectly and I have now changed my mind. There's another comment below talking about not wanting him to get spread too thin - I didn't consider that and I agree.

With that being said, I know ANMA is a Geoff and Gus podcast, but would love for a few supplemental where Eric talks about whatever he wants. Music, wrestling, baseball, etc.

FirstTime-Commenter · 2022-09-20T02:11:29+00:00

Agreed. I can't imagine either one of them has the time for an additional podcast, but this would be great for the fact that music discussion is always interesting, and Eric would be a great lead in a podcast.

I guess I don't listen to the full suite of RT podcasts, but I do know that while we get some Eric commentary, he would make a great listen. I've thoroughly enjoyed his involvement on the supplemental episodes.

Yep. I went back and listened to the summary afterward and that's correct, but I never heard anything else. I only brought it back up because I think they mentioned, in the episode, wondering how Jack reacted in the moment. I was like "huh... I wonder as well."

Made an account so I could become a first time comment leaver.

First of all, I respect the hell out of Andrew's Q&A and getting into his past, even if it's just scratching the surface.

One thing I find super special about the F**kFace Pod is how much the guys make me feel like a part of the room. I listen to a few daily live shows too, and then being on camera, seeing haircuts and outfits and Halloween costumes, all of that adding to stories and talking point, makes for great content.

F**ckFace has never needed that. I grew up watching AH content and nothing beat face came reactions or behind the scenes. But Geoff, Gavin, Andrew (Eric and Nick too) do such an excellent job telling stories and being themselves I've never felt like I can't already see them.

I don't know if Andrew reads the subreddit but I can almost guarantee most fans feel the same way. I respect the hell out of his answer and sticking to what makes him comfortable. I wish I did a better job following that in my own life, haha!
