'''Game Grumps''' is a webshow/[http://www.youtube.com/ YouTube] channel originally created and hosted by Jon Jafari ([[JonTron]]) and Arin Hanson ([[Awesome Series|Egoraptor]]), where they play games while doing live commentary, with the first episode airing on July 18, 2012. On June 25, 2013, after about a year's (or 342 day's) worth of episodes, Jon left the show, and was replaced by Daniel Avidan, also known as Danny Sexbang, the lead singer of the musical comedy duo [http://www.NinjaSexParty.com Ninja Sex Party].

Around the same time, a Game Grumps spin-off show entitled [[Steam Train]] was introduced. The show features Danny and animator Ross O'Donovani, who also joined the channel shortly after Jon's departure. The premise of [[Steam Train]] is similar to that of the original Game Grumps formula, with the only difference being that the games played are exclusively on the PC platform, often through the digital game distribution software [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steam_(software) Steam], hence the show's title. Later on, Arin, Danny and other guests began appearing on the spin-off.
