The Community Spotlight 2021.09.04

Hello and welcome to the latest edition of the Giant Bomb Community Spotlight! I, @zombiepie, am once again honored to be your host as we look back at the best community-created works from the last week. First, let's talk about quick "programming note!" Jeff Grubb's GrubbSnax is changing its start time to 8:30a PT/11:30a ET! This week's edition was the first to air at this time, so, please keep that in mind in the future.

Dan Auer, the previous design manager for Giant Bomb and GameSpot, has announced they are leaving and have cited mental health and betterment as their reasons. Please respect their privacy on the reason, but also thank them for the many logos and works of art they have provided over the years!

In better news, Jan announced they were promoted to the position of "Senior Producer" at Giant Bomb! Congratulate them in this new step forward with their career if you have not done so already! Speaking of Jan, their mother recently retired.

VoidBurger was the editor behind "The Very Online Show 05: Breaking Brendan Fraser" and while I feel like I say this every time, but this is her best work yet. If you have any civil and polite suggestions, please use the link above to send them her way.

Finally, here's your roundup of premium content from the past week in case you were worried about missing something. Also, some users are reporting that they are having a hard time finding premium audio/video on the site. Jan's advice is to select the "Premium Audio" in the drop down and the RSS button should generate a link to pop into your podcast service of choice! Here's a picture of what it should look like as you review the shows this week.

• Unprofessional Fridays: UPF 09/03/21
• The Very Online Show 05: Breaking Brendan Fraser
• Bak 2 Skool 04: Evolution
• ALBUMMER! 05: Metallica's "St. Anger"
• Armed and Rangerous EP 03

Adult Swim Turned 20 (By:@jearum)

Did you know that Adult Swim is celebrating its 20th anniversary? Well, jearum decided to mix one of their favorite Adult Swim shows from yesteryear with Jeff Bakalar.

Also, the real OGs remember when Adult Swim's programming block was "The Midnight Run." If you remember that era of Cartoon Network, let me know in the comments and hold your VHS recordings of Trigun and Cowboy Bebop in pride. Oh god... please tell me I'm not the only one who remembers this.
