Unlike other TWIT shows, this one has gone way downhill due to the panelists, other than Leo and Jason Snell (who is terrific). Christina is mostly annoying while Andy provides useless thoughts. In the most recent episode about the new Apple financing program, his comments were insulting at the very least and useless at best. Christina also was judgmental and unsure of her facts. While Jason is the voice of reason and knowledge. Listening to this show has become difficult, and no way would ... more
Why are you adding copies of podcasts to download to my device that are not from TWIT? Discovered I have like 50 downloaded podcasts for different companies on my feed in each of my Twit shows I listen to. On top of that its mainly the same episode of one show. Funny when you guys talk about ads killing media you are just as guilty
I have been listening since episode 1. The show has almost always been a good listen, but it has improved significantly since Christine replaced Alex. I was getting annoyed with Alex’s unending monologues and his somewhat pompous and condescending tone (I’m sure he’s fitting in perfectly at Apple.)
Christine is a breath of fresh air!
…except when the subject turns to pop culture, but that’s a rare digression…I hope!
The newest co-host to join the show is far too aggressively negative on Apple and dismissive of people who choose to select their products. I don’t need someone telling me I’m stupid for making choices to buy an Apple product. Andy just gets lost in himself and isn’t really adding much to the show at all. The only one with a real balanced view on Apple left is Jason. I stopped paying for the club, I think I’m close to an unsubscribe to the show completely at this point.
I don’t have much time to listen to Podcasts, but when I do, this is the one I go to. As well as keeping me up to date on Mac stuff, it is more entertaining than some others. I especially like the picks of the week.
