Hello and welcome to the latest edition of the Giant Bomb Community and I, ZombiePie am once again honored to be your host this week! I'm not going to lie, I have a lot of stuff to share to you this week! The most notable part of this edition of the Spotlight is related to the Giant Bomb Community Endurance Run! For those unaware, THIS WEEK is when the magic happens! That's right, dozens of Giant Bomb users will be streaming content for your enjoyment all in the name of charity! If possible check out some of the user-made blogs laying out their Endurance Run plans. Also, this year the event will be changing course and raising money for COVID-19 relief, as well as will be joined by Abby on Friday! It should be a fun time for all involved! Regardless, let's jump into the site-related housekeeping!
