2016 Worst Year Ever? ep. 170 Dec 22, 2016

Show notes

Humanity has collectively decided that 2016 is one of the worst years ever.. Natural disasters.. Global Politics... Celebrity Deaths.. Dabbing.. Harambe... And as a summary the VGB crew is going over all of it.. When I originally asked Webb to compose a list of the worst things that happened in 2016 we were hoping that he would keep it related to stuff in pop culture, or gaming.. there was a communication error and he found a list all about natural disasters...

We play a round of #BrainBANG and try and salvage what we can out of an incredibly depressing 2016... This will be my last episode of the year (Cory). I'm very thankful for what was a good year for VGB.. your support online and at our live events have allowed me to get a job in the gaming industry that is going to bring us more opportunities in 2017.

With Jessica heading to Orange Country we will be making a very big announcement on January 1st as to who will carry the torch as our 4th member of the Videogame BANG!

Topics Include: New Years, Christmas, 2016, Worst things, Celebrity Deaths, Prince, David Bowie, Overwatch, Las Vegas, MLG, Call of Duty, NRG Esports, Meta, Smash 4, Wii U, Nairo, Yeezy, Kanye West, Gaming, Sacramento, Video games, youtube, cosplay, Podcast, Zero Saga, Harambe, Dabbing, Dab, Brexit, Trump, pipeline, natural disaster, Twitch, Youtube, Facebook, David Webb, Aaron Carter, Cory Vincent
