  • Love the show, but chill on the sound board high

    Love the show, but please chill on the sound board high and low voices. It takes away from the content - can’t understand a word.

  • Boys interrupted

    TBPN covers tech industry topics really well such as AI, big companies, all that stuff. The hosts know their material. But they talk over each other constantly, even interrupt guests sometimes, which gets annoying. It’s worth listening to if you care about tech, but they need to chill with the interruptions.

  • Egregious soundboard use

    I’m a fan, but the soundboard use (especially the low/high voices) makes the show unlistenable at times.
