This used to be my favorite show but it’s just a leftist political conversation, back in the olden days it was about tech and the Mac. Can’t really enjoy this show anymore.
Lefty Leo strikes again. It would really be nice if the MacBreak show was less about politics. I should not be able to tell that Leo is a left wing communist. Andy is a nice guy but he belongs on a show more about tech that he can talk to his hearts desire. He goes on and on without taking a breath. Alex is the most level headed guy on the show and often, in my opinion, gets figuratively, shouted down whenever he has an opinion that’s not Leo’s or Andy’s. Please Andy take a breath and stop talki... more
Update 9/20/25 - Away for over 5 years. Came back to listen about the iPhone 17 and iOS 26. Nothing changed and has gotten worse. Now, not only is Andy more emboldened to speak his political opinions but now Leo does it too! And now he also begs for subscribers! HAHA the downfall of TWiT approaches. Leo should have stayed on tech and stopped the political innuendos. I’m gone again.
Update 3/5/20- sorry but I’ve decided to unsubscribe. Less than 10’ in and Andy goes off on his political rant. St... more
