    Tom and the rest of the cohosts are really good at making sense out of the latest technology related news. They have been listening for years and look forward to each new episode!

  • One of my favorite podcasts

    I've followed Tom Merritt as his podcasting career has progressed, and he's one of the best at what he does. This podcast keeps me informed of the tech news in a way that is also enjoyable. I'm a long-time Patreon supporter of this podcast and feel it’s money well spent.

  • All good things must come to an end

    Really disappointed how much this show changed over the years. Tom was great as a solo act; Tom and Sarah were even better. Now we have a group D-list co-hosts that add zero value to the show, no guests, and an overwhelming ad load that for me, is nothing but the same ad over and over. The days that Tom does not co-host (looking at you, Thursdays) are utterly unlistenable. Instant skip.

  • Way too many ads.

    Please cut back on the ads. For a 30 minute show, at least 10-15 minutes of it are ads. That’s insane. Fix the ratio please. What also bugs me is that the hosts can often have rather contrarian opinions that don’t exactly reflect what’s out there.
