  • The clock needs new batteries

    I used to love this podcast. Having a quick four person view on various topics was a great way to spark interest. Recently however it’s just descended into four people bringing topics they want to criticise and moan about. It’s become downbeat and snarky. Makes even 30 minutes a hard listen

    Was just listening Wifi Egg episode and their comments about tracking your kids felt like they are out of touch

  • Great format

    Making it 30 minutes makes it more digestible. Also, thanks for using “chapters”. That way, I have the option of jumping into the topics that I like.

  • Tech? This is an Apple podcast.

    If you are an older American who only uses Apple you might appreciate this.
