Man With A Stick soylent has reformulated since this I think. It’s called soylent 2.0. and I once found a few boxes of technically expired bottles of the stuff in my apartment’s recycling bin and I drank them for weeks. Tasted pretty good, like a bread flavored milkshake.
Did Dan seriously call Chipotle, Chiptle for God's sake, "*ritzy*"? This man must have spent the entirety of his life in the backest of the backwoods of Kansas.
Taco Bell is NOT food. It is a modular food product system. There are a few basic food product ingredients (different shells, cheeses, "meat" fillings, etc) that are combined to make a bevy of food products that all taste the same and KIND of resemble food.
I don't get people who revel in shitty fast food. Like, yeah, it doesn't taste bad most of the time. I can eat it if I have to, but real food is just so much more nuanced and satisfying and if you live in a densely populated city like these duders, just as easy to come by. There is no freshness to balance the fat and salt in crap food, because it's impossible to reproduce without fresh ingredients. Fast food is inherently unbalanced in flavor. Even something bad for you no matter what, like a cheesy as fuck taco, is going to taste much better made by hand than at fucking taco bell, because freshly diced tomatoes and onion and lettuce add SO MUCH VALUE to the flavor profile and ground beef just tastes much better when it's, ya know, ground beef, and not 36% ground beef plus a bunch of grain-based fillers and preservatives and coloring.
@@simonkim8646 fast food is like a drug. If you don't take it for long enough you stop craving it and eventually find it distasteful. All the while feeling better because your dopamine receptors and digestive system aren't under assault.
Dan has talked about is pre-diabetic condition and his doctor made him work out more, limited his alcohol use, sweets and fatty foods so it wont become a permanent condition. He has been doing it for 2 years now - this podcast was from 2015. You can be thin, but unhealthy as hell. He is also younger than Vinny, Alex, Jeff and Brad. Eating shitty will catch on you at some point, it always does.
I think its ironic to hear Austin Walker go "oof!" to Dan saying he ate Taco Bell so much as a kid...then you see what Dan looks like now and how healthy he is. Compare that to Austin Walker now...I'm not body shaming Austin, I'm a fat boi, but just saying it goes to show where judgement gets you.
Austin has never not been morbidly obese in his adult life. He was like 3 times Dan's weight at the time of this recording so it's not like he had a leg to stand on even then.
Vinny's "That never happened! That's a fake story!" gets me every time...

God I miss old Giant Bomb. Not saying the new stuff is bad. But damn, loved these dude's chemistry.
And this isn't even the old old crew. But brad, Jeff and Dan had magic going
There is a reason my podcast app is filled with episodes from 2008-2014. I just listen to them over and over when I am on long road trips.
I like how this all starts with a 'simple' would your rather.
“You’re just Vince Carvel now”
I guarantee every Mexican-American listening to this was screaming at their phone and continued to do so throughout the day.
Such a fantastic segment, if anyone ever asks me about the Bombcast I will send them this video.
"I am putting you in the fucking dirt." - Alex
Funny how now we're at the point where Jeff and Brad are running ads on the Bombcast for Soylent

@@Solidsnaik hahah you will never have kids of your own
How the fuck did they predict the whopperito a year before it came out.
Dan Ryckert Histories 2nd greatest monster.
+Thomas Westergaard 1)stalin 2)dan 3)hitler? Genghis khan was a nightmare also
I thought Vinny was number 1 for renting Homefront off of Gamefly
@@DestroyersGarage Jimmy Carter is number 1.
I still miss Ryan
At 2:45, someone definitely farts, lmao!
Dan is not the monster we need, he is the monster that we deserve.

+Michael Grisham He makes the midwest look like it's 30 years behind. We're really own 3 years behind.
I miss the old bomb cast
Damn I wish I could eat at Taco Bell.
There are basically none in Europe.
Never even had a taco
These guys are very precious about food
Dan has such strong Only-Child vibes
More like "grew up with an older sister and a single mother" vibes

Everybody is hating, but other than Drew, Dan is in significantly better shape than the rest of the duders

His metabolism is better than the rest of the crew. Even Vinny mentions it. Dan hit the metabolism lottery.
