MacPhyleWA ,

One of my favorites from TWiT

It’s not always about Google, sometimes about everything but Google, but I’ve watched this show since 2011, and I’ve loved every episode.

MiDJfavorito ,

Best news source!

Love the round table style

TouchOfGray ,

Political

This podcast is less and less about Google developments than the hosts’ pro stance on Big Tech fascism, pro authoritarian visions, and anti-Trump sentiments.
