Excellent host
Love the host and her voice which is very easy to listen to. Great content - appreciate your news channel.
Good but
Good content. It would be an even better podcast if one of the guys from The Journal hosted it instead.
Short but sweet
I was looking for another tech news podcast to go along with Techmeme Ride Home and the Daily Tech News Show and This Week in Tech and macOS Ken !
This is a perfect fit - short and sweet. Skilled and experienced presenters, well-informed guest journalists - just what I needed
