It’s like we never left. Diggnation was such a huge part of my life when first launched and it created my love of podcasts. As we approach 50, it’s nice to have a familiar friend to listen to. It makes me so happy to see a new episode available. Let’s see a reboot of Totally Rad Show too, Alex!
Diggnation (Rebooted) is everything I hoped it would be and more. It captures the original vibe perfectly. Casual, hilarious, and just two smart dudes riffing on tech, culture, and the internet. It’s nostalgic in all the best ways, but it also feels fresh and relevant.
Great to see the crew together again, sharing their thoughts on the stories that interest them. I didn’t realize how much I missed having DiggNation in my life!
