    People 1*ing because Gerstmann talks about politics sometimes. Stop listening if your feelings are hurt that much. Individuals have opinions, and you aren’t always going to agree with them. Grow up, children.

  • Politics

    Dude stop talking about politics. You’re a professional nerd not someone who understands the world. Take a look at your warzone of a state and ask yourself if that should go federal.

    Woke facts give me a break

  • Too repetitive

    I like Jeff but he’s so repetitive sometimes. Like he went on an insane ramble about his pipes leaking and about how the Minecraft movie was “weird” and repeated each point probably 5-10 times. Jeff just listen to how repetitive you are in that episode.
