4.7 out of 5 stars from 1.8k ratings
  • Informative, but

    1). The bumper music is entirely overused.

    2). The name is misleading: it drops in the morning.

  • Sloppy Production, Bad Ethics

    Decent podcast is severely held back by lazy, sloppy production errors. It is common for episodes to randomly have a second audio clip mistakenly playing over the main audio, resulting in a mess that is difficult to hear.

    Brian keeps talking about experimenting with AI to make more and more podcasts but can’t be bothered to take the time to do basic QA on his main offering.

    He also is begging OpenAI to give favored access to his advertising business. Nobody should listen to this grifter

  • Can you learn how to pronounce names?

    I like this podcast but it HAS to be a bit. The host manages to pronounce some brands and software titles in a way no one else ever has.

  • Do something about your voice

    Appreciate the daily content but his adenoidal voice is excruciating especially at 1.5 - 2x speed.

    Normal really isn't much better and the casual dropping of slang or hip-hop references are so unnatural. Just stop.

    Just have AI host the show and change the voice already for Pete's sake.

    -2 stars for the voice. Another star for the obnoxious ad reads (again voice and false sincerity).
