In this MinnMax Interview, Ben Hanson talks to Vinny Caravella, Brad Shoemaker, and Alex Navarro about their big journey from Giant Bomb to Nextlander. We talk about why they decided it was time to leave Giant Bomb and corporations behind and to establish a direct line with the community over on Patreon with their new outlet Nextlander. Also, we talk about why it's such a scary leap to take.
