First off, let me say that I love TWiT. With that said, I now beg Leo and John Dvorak to back up and please let the other TWiT's speak for more than a few seconds without the constant, incessant interjection and interruption. Robert Heron, Alex Lindsay and Patrick Norton very frequently have great information to share but it’s almost always drowned out by Leo's need to hear himself speak and Dvorak's endless hot air. I love punditry as much as the next guy but these men rarely let the others speak without interruption. As a long time radio personality, Leo should know better. I love the show, but they really ought to allow everyone to speak equally. Very often Leo and Dvorak show just how old they are by being dismissive and curmudgeonly about things they often know little about, and instead of allowing the others to teach them they just yell them down into submission. Too bad fellas! Get your act together!

This is a must listen weekly podcast for me. I’m kept up-to-date on the latest trends and opinions and technology, receive great recommendations, and just learn more about the world.

What used to be an interesting, fun, and informative discussion about all things tech has slumped so badly that it now barely even lives up to its own title. The first 10-20 episodes were wonderful, with a high-quality and listener-centered panel, headed by the personable Laporte. Recently, however, the topics are increasingly obscure, the banter increasingly self-centered, the audio quality increasingly sub-par, and the presence of certain voices increasingly grating. John C. Dvorak deserves special credit in the destruction of this podcast for using his inclusion in the group of TWiTs to feed his ever-more-alienating ego. After months of committed listening and spreading the word to friends, I am extremely saddened by the quick combustion of a once-great podcast. Over the course of a few short months, the TWiT army has gone from laughing and learning along with the panel to hanging our heads, and our iPods, in shame.

This used to be an outstanding tech news podcast and they were careful to stay out of politics. I think Leo knows Twit is circling the drain and just gave up on trying to stay out of politics. As a follower of Leo since techtv days, it’s a shame.

When they talk about tech (which they know), it’s very interesting. When they go off on poorly-informed political rants against the current, popularly elected administration, based on CNN talking points, it’s insufferable. When the “wrong guy” wins the popular vote, maybe you guys should adjust instead of whining and repeating leftist echo chamber talking points. Lost me as a listener.

Used to love Twit and The Tech Guy, but sadly Leo and guests (especially on Twit) have become far too political and love promoting liberal agendas. I miss the original shows.

I like it when this podcast discusses tech content, but it ends up getting very political and one-sided. If I wanted to listen to a political podcast, I would do so.

Your episode 1023 (March 16,2025) mentioned old style hard drives now getting expensive, harder to get and coming back into vogue. There are knitting machines (made by Brother and other Japanese companies, as well as some European) from the 1960s-1990s which use punchcards for designs and patterns—these older machines are STILL being used by domestic knitters today because they were so well built. These machines were also designed with electronics in the 1980s-1990s but ceased being made and difficult to get electronics if they go bad (get “bricked”). The punchcard machines are non-electronic and can be used anywhere/anytime. These Japanese machines hold their value—if an experienced knitter knows what to look for—and the learning curve for any knitting machine is still quite steep (with or without punchcards/electronics). China is trying to make copycats but the specs, materials and workmanship are not like those of the 1980s-1990s — all of which are simple computers 😊

This show is so entertaining . I listen every week to get the latest tech news and analysis. Give it a try if you’re interested in tech

Still the best way to keep up with what's happening in the tech sphere. Knowledgeable experienced guests discuss the news and provide plenty of perspective and context. Leo the host keeps the conversation lively. Especially good for keeping up with AI action and separating out the reality from the hype. The TWIT network has specialty shows that do deep dives into many areas, and this general roundup draws on those for insights. Other reviews have criticized the show for more political content lately. I don't see how that can be avoided as tech and politics have gotten inextricably linked. Leo does try to take a tech angle on everything and there is plenty of discussion of non-political topics.
