  • Focus more on broader IT and much less on MS/AI

    This podcast is great but like a lot of other adjacent podcasts there is an issue where the topics get stale. There is way too much misguided focus on AI which is honestly pretty irrelevant to a lot of real IT people, and the obsession over it distracts from more interesting things in the IT sphere. This podcast tends to be a little too redundant when it comes to some of the talking points as well. Let’s talk less about Microsoft and maybe more about Linux servers, or Apple management, or waterc... more

  • Great guests and content

    Hi — I enjoy RunAs Radio’s topics and guests, but I want to share a piece of constructive feedback: I often find the host jumps in and interrupts guests, which sometimes breaks the flow and makes it harder to hear the guest’s full answers. I’d love slightly longer uninterrupted answers and fewer sidebar comments so the guest can finish their points. Thanks for the great content otherwise!

  • Great topics, great guests, annoying host

    I listen to this show on and off because of the host. The guests are incredible, but the host constantly interrupts them and takes them on useless tangents. His comments often make it seem like he wasn’t listening to the guest, and sound completely wrong. He constantly add comments about the “back in the day” and how long he’s been working in the industry. Each episode could be 5-10 min shorter if he only spoke when required.
