I really miss these guys!! I don't know what these stupid people below are saying but I was excited every time they came out with an episode! It's depressing if they never come back. These non fun people below are really just old and boring and would rather listen to techie crap.

Apple Podcasts5Capt. CUnited States15 years ago - This podcast is vacuous drivel
I listen to a lot of TWIT technology podcasts and they are consistently great. So I thought "This Week in Fun" would be a good addition to my iPod playlist. Man, was I wrong! I tried to listen to the latest show twice - TWICE - and shut it off long before the end. Twenty minutes into the show, I was still wondering when the FUN was going to start. The hosts are shallow, vacuous twits (sorry, Leo, not in your sense of the word). Their banter is pedantic and their attempts to sound "cool" are forc... more
Apple Podcasts1mb1870Canada16 years ago - Update?
It's been a few months and no updates... what happened?
Apple Podcasts1Skull PandaUnited States16 years ago - Awful...
Sarah Lane and Martin, might be interesting, I thought. Then I listened. I wish I didn't. God awful waste of an hour of my life. They try to be funny but end up just sounding stupid. I know both of them are smarter then this. I love twit any many if the other shows, but this, this almost drove me insane.
Apple Podcasts1Mooseman200123United States16 years ago - only problem i have is

Apple Podcasts5RenanSchefferUnited States16 years ago - The fun is still here

Apple Podcasts5William217United States16 years ago - TWIF 49... No idea
Enjoy Leo and TWIT so tried something new and downloaded TWIF 49. No idea what was going on. There were long pauses, nothing funny, gave up.

United Kingdom16 years ago - The fun is gone
Used to love the show. I think Martin is an unhappy person and Sarah (while cute and fun) agrees too much to be a counterweight. The ripping on Steve Gibson, Revision3, and Kevin Rose, was funny but is now more mean spirited than "fun". Then they pick a fight with NSFW (who are up for a "fight") but never bring it.
This Week WAS Fun...
Apple Podcasts2Lord McSquashUnited States16 years ago - Twif rocks
Great stuff Martin and Sarah.... As usual you bring a smile to my week. Keep the fantastic show coming.
P.S you should do more than one show a week or maybe even another mini podcast in the middle of the week.
Apple Podcasts5RedpaintCanada16 years ago - Ouch.
Tragic.
Apple Podcasts1TimothraUnited States16 years ago - What are they talking about???
There's no show organization. They can't even stay on one topic. I wish Sarah Lane would find a new gig because this makes her look bad.
