  • Incredibly factual Tec review show, lots of fun too.

    I have listened to Davindra on his other podcast “Filmcast podcast” where he is hysterical. It’s fun to see him on a serious show, however he takes Engadget to the next level.

  • naive

    often a bit to gen-z pc and also often too naive or at least if not naive then pulling punches bc can’t anger corporate sponsors too much. not informative enough bc it is at it’s core just desperate shilling for the website. also the hosts are afraid for their jobs for good reason but that does not make the pod any better, just more desperate.

  • More Political nonsense.

    Came to listen about PS5 Pro review and got 4 minutes of why the hosts’ 6 year-of daughter was upset Trump won the election. A six year-old’s viewpoint on the political landscape. Same as Verge. The fact that Trump won this election with all the negative press just shows how bad an opponent Harris was.
