also the guys start wondering what Mario's Political beliefs are and Reggie wants you to PLAY THE GAME!!! Link To The Full Episode: Giant Bombcast 06-18-2013 www.giantbomb.c...
I like Vinny as much as the next guy, but he's just too far off base here. Incorrect usage of the term "racism" is a major pet peeve of mine. Mario's character is based on a cultural stereotype (and a pretty innocent one, at that). It has nothing to do with racism, which encompasses some of the worst atrocities in human history. Jeff is funny as always, though.
Djangolulu No, it isn't. Pointing out that Japanese people sometimes eat sushi and bow as a greeting isn't the same as considering them inferior. If it were, then you couldn't portray or refer to any cultural difference.
The Mussolini thing was hilarious.
It's so sad when you realize this was mere weeks before Ryan left us.
We don't talk about that!
Thanks for uploading this bit. Was listening to Bombcast on the bus laughing like an insane person at this part.
We need Vinny and Brad doing the press voice and Dark Souls.
FANCY SEEIN' YOU HERE NICK
Poor Vinny. Once he pointed it out you can't help but add to the pile(-a).
One of these guys sounds like Josh Jepson
ARE YOU ALSO IN THIS DIVISION??? perhaps we can impact the game with 2 helicopters!!
Still Hilarious!!! ))
I remember that and I wasn't bothered by it and I'm Italian.

Isn't cultural stereotyping a form of racism? It can still be racism if its not the slavery or the Holocaust.
