Best of Giant Bomb 174 - Heretical Grinder

[@Electroporcupine]

I just love how, for a moment, it seems entirely plausible that Dan had somehow come to the conclusion at some point that Dinosaurs are a myth.

[@SkyCladBrent]

The Business Dave Top 10 has become my favorite reoccurring UPF segment

[@jacobcardoza4897]

I agree, super funny

[@WilliamAmbervein]

"I believe in dinosaurs"

[@rwrw418]

Business Dave has an extremely dry sense of humour that I appreciate. The man is capital-D Droll.

[@AnArmyOfBees]

Dan has had a MONTH.

[@zrobeast]

“He’s a liability. We need to explain him to people.” The most true two sentences ever said about Dan.

[@kaizerdeath12]

I'm glad the worst moments that ever happen nowadays in Giant Bomb is Heated Dan Moments instead of Gamer moments.

[@Electroporcupine]

Well, that and Alex's unfortunate words regarding Italians...

[@internetpolice3879]

@@Electroporcupine What did Alex say?

[@eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeo]

@@internetpolice3879 he was talking about Whoppers candy and said "whop" , which sounds like "wop"

Abby’s reaction to Dan not knowing where butter comes from...

Rogers1981 Dan! DAN!

[@Refleksy]

0:30 Alex with the deep Sanford and Son cut

[@IceNein763]

I think I platonically love Business Dave.

[@johnarmstrong5533]

I love a good laugh at Dan's expense as much as the next person. But the sheer density of them in the opening montage actually made me feel a little bad for him.

[@Ends_Of_Invention]

The first memory I have of Dan on GB is him talking about how he used to think egg whites was the egg shell, and so he once tried to cook an egg shell. You shouldn't judge people on first impressions, except with Dan.

[@dw-yl3ln]

Big fan of Business Daves Top Ten. Made it Top Twenty! Or Top Thirty, even!

[@chillnspace777]

00:09 I love Alex's minor aneurysm/ stroke when he realized what Dan said and then having him not exactly have him click on what he was saying.

[@Kmark86]

My favorite part is how you could see him anticipating it the second Dan said "Wrestling isn't how real fights happen"

[@chillnspace777]

Wow I suffered a stroke trying to type that earlier comment. Dan even effects me through the screen.

[@lestrade5886]

If nothing else, I really admire Dan for having no fear of sounding stupid.

[@drycountyblues]

He’s brave enough to ask the real questions

[@Maurrokh]

True, I really respect that.

[@deusalex3573]

LMAO when Vinny mutes Dan after the lost taste buds explanation. Bakalars' laugh was simultaneous with mine. Omg Dan is something special

[@Drez47]

This Business Dave guy could be a character in a David Lynch movie...

[@implodinghippo]

What is this business Dave stuff?!? I've been missing out

[@DemonMasterAnsem]

Dan is a treasure. "I thought pirates were fake? Butter comes from an animal? Dinosaurs were once real? Can you eat Silicia Gel Packets?" I have a feeling he frequents yahoo answers in his time off.

[@Macho_Fantastico]

Alex legit looked like he was about to have a heart attack at Dan's dinosaur comment.

[@ebob182]

This episode should’ve been called “SMELL BUDZ”

[@nomchonks]

i NEED a gif of brad starting from 14:39

[@Roooobb]

Anyone who thought eggs were dairy are on the exact same level as Dan.

[@raysravens52]

That's a long way to say nobody is on the same level as Dan.

[@bornofdust]

I thought for sure eggs had been classified as dairy at some point. I didn’t *understand* it and thought it was dumb, but I thought that was the “proper” classification.

[@katamariofsoul]

Abby curling in on herself as she yells Dan's name off mic in disbelief and horror at how dumb he can be, is truly top tier Giant Bomb content

[@KaneRobot]

Who the fuck is Business Dave? These videos are pretty much my only GB exposure at this point

[@mackenzie8938]

Everyone knocked Dan for not knowing where butter comes from, but also none of them knew that eggs weren't dairy.

[@elsteveoh]

that mention of the chance the rapper album in Business Dave's Top 10 sure didn't age well

[@SeroTyler]

oh it's fiiiiiine

[@MobiusFun64]

Man, I miss 2019

[@Stemage]

The best "Best of" in a very long time.

[@ranss]

not in kansas anymore eh dan

[@bananatubeOG]

"dan is a liability". Nope. Literally one of the only things keeping Giant Bomb afloat nowadays. I get that "dan is dumb" is a running gag, but as others have mentioned, I hope it doesn't wear on Dan, and that he's able to say that it's getting to be a bit much if it ever gets to that point. Some of it seems mean-spirited, and just taking advantage of Dan being a good sport.

[@McNishy]

This is an extremely good Dan video.

[@toddhmr]

Dan Rycert has coasted through life so easily I don't even think he is stupid, he has just never had to apply critical thought to things until just that moment.

[@teamshalalla]

I'm on Dan's side, he good boy

[@brianbarrett285]

As much as Dan is entertaining, I am surprised he has survived this long in life

[@magickoopa24]

As funny as the moments of Dan's ignorance can be, it really rubs me the wrong way- he's doing his best trying to break out of the ignorance he was raised in, but everytime he asks or says something not as smart everyone piles on him. I know he's probably okay with it since he keeps doing so, but it just seems really aggressive lately. Hopefully if anything actually makes him feel bad he can bring it up.

[@TheWheatless]

He’s spent so long saying dumb shit and then vehemently claiming that he is undeniably correct. Most of his questions here (besides not knowing what a hobby is) were slightly more legitimate and in good faith. But it’s going to take a while for anyone to be willing to deal with his shit

[@rickwilson8190]

you guys must feel real smart shitting on dan just because he doesnt know shit

[@DarkEggplant]

Shh shhh. Just write it in your journal, Dan

[@MissAshley42]

Why can't you just for once meet a nice, Christian grinder?

[@alsorew]

His ignorance was as remarkable as his knowledge. Of contemporary literature, philosophy and politics he appeared to know nothing. Upon my quoting Thomas Carlyle, he inquired in the naivest way who he might be and what he had done. My surprise reached a climax, however, when I found incidentally that he was ignorant of the Copernican Theory and of the composition of the Solar System. That any civilized being in this nineteenth century should not be aware that the earth traveled round the sun appeared to me to be such an extraordinary fact that I could hardly realize it.

[@elbvidya1968]

Andrew So Dan is Sherlock Holmes

[@fhqwgads5000]

"hey guys I'm gonna generate some hilarious content real quick" "well better mute the mic"

[@Wesley_C]

Dan wants to believe Dinosaurs.

[@metalslingr]

I love Dan, even Amish Dan.

[@SevenDeadlyCinema]

what is that re4 stream from? link?

The guy playing the Sekiro game, I seriously thought that was Marry Sliva for a bit. Who is he?

dan is right about silica gel packets!!

Yo who is Business Dave. Fucking hell this is amazing.

What's the name of the game Ben's playing?

I can't laugh at Dan because I am Dan

[@chillnspace777]

00:20 I was in Jurassic Park! - Dan Ryckert 2019.

*That time Dan almost killed Alex.*

Who’s this Dave guy

[@MrShootHere]

YES! MUNICIPAL WASTE! ROCK ON! \m/

[@CPUT99]

What is the game at 13:00 ?? Sekiro? Nioh? Something else that ends in "o" ?? I havent played either but that looks cool. If its either of those is it a DLC or something? I thought you couldn't customize the look of the main character on either of those games which kinda put me off..

I'm shocked they put this one up a week after the last one. Also relieved - I didn't love the Crime Crew one.

[@broem157]

DAAAAAN

[@bowlingdoughnutsmd3703]

this is the worst one the east coast was so rude to Dan when he s just trying to entertain and be dumb. the first half of this is really hard to get through.

[@Muppio]

How the fuck is Dan still alive? How did he get to where he is today? Why is he successful?

[@sortedevaras]

Dan is a liability confirmed.

Still will never forget him defending that metal gear isn’t anime or political. Fucking hell.

Ryckert was the reason why I stopped paying for membership, the pain in Alex chest is TRUE!

[@kevinkuenn5733]

This comments section is already full of people projecting their own insecurities onto Dan's relationship with his coworkers or vice-versa, Jesus fucking Christ...

Hi

[@ibouchi]

I am honestly amazed that Dan has survived as long as he has knowing as little as he does...... I'm legit blown away

[@GDIGhostStalker]

Dan*

[@ibouchi]

@@GDIGhostStalker yeah.... Him. I was so blown away that I forgot his name

[@godfreyhowatchin]

Dan needs to quit and sue the staff for harassment. It's been like years now and he's consistently shit on by everyone else on staff. GB mods aggressively silence any criticism or negative attitudes towards any other staff members (Brad, Abby, etc) but actively encourage harassment of Dan. he's got a legit case for workplace abuse lol.

[@eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeo]

You should try making a friend someday

[@dw-yl3ln]

Cool story, bro.

[@Electroporcupine]

You should see a therapist dude

[@leptok3736]

You know him and his wife have talked about him playing a character. He plays it up and rolls with it.

[@godfreyhowatchin]

he should tell the staff about it being a bit so the UCB improv trained people dont instantly shut down the bit screaming NO NO NO every time he says something stupid.
