Customer Reviews
such good conversation
this week’s discussion between Brianna Wu and Cathy Gellis was fantastically compelling. Thoughful perspectives.
Every episode is can’t miss.
Leo’s flagship show never stops entertaining and informing.
Talk radio with a little tech
I’ve been a TWiT listener since the very beginning when shows were only about hot long. They’ve been getting longer and longer. Now 2 1/2 hoots seems common for most of Leo’s shows. I was exasperated at first especially when they frequently went off on tangents. These were not the tech news shows I was expecting. Now I realize it’s my expectations that are unrealistic. Leo is a radio guy. He’s used to doing several hour long shows and filling in time. So if you’ve got hours to kill, TWiT and other shows are frequently entertaining. The guests can be interesting. You can even get a little tech news. But not for the impatient.
