  • Just barely tech stuff IMO

    Sorry people I feel like there’s about two minutes worth of interesting content in each one of these 30 minute long episodes and it’s just so grossly padded out to 30 or 45 minutes length perhaps just for the purpose of selling commercial time.

    I listened to several episodes and gave it a shot, but sorry, I’m out

  • Used to be good then he got political

    the new hosts started off good but the show has become a directionless mess. It’s a pseudo-news show with hardly any “tech” in it. Just throwing in your opinion about AI once in a while doesn’t make it a tech show. I used to listen weekly even as the last host turned it into a political soap box, but I’m done now. You ruined a good thing.

  • I love the podcast content and hosts, but the ads are atrocious. This is true with all iHeart podcasts but seems worst with this one. Literally just had a ~3 minute commercial break, a 2 minute outro/credits, followed by another full commercial break before the end of the episode. The ad/content ratio is unacceptable.
