Too angry.
Too angry and ranty for me. I get it, Ed is angry about the current state of the Internet and tech. I am too. It's perfectly reasonable to be angry at the destruction of something we love and have come to rely on for so many things. But there's only so much of that anger I can take when expressed in a 45 minute podcast. It just gets exhausting listening to a man angrily rant for so long and I honestly think it undermines the message and will potentially alienate listeners who might not agree with Ed and who otherwise might have been convinced by a calmer, more matter-of-fact delivery. I feel like this anger can still be expressed without coming across as an extended beligerant rant, and I would be happy to return to this podcast if it becomes a little more relaxed in the future. I wish Ed all the best with the podcast. It is highlighting very important issues, it's just not for me.Read full review »

It’s started strong, but now it seems like the same three talking points again and again. Doesn’t seem to be enough content for a twice a week show. That said, the good episodes are really good and it is consistently entertaining.

Rants currently lack nuance because out of proportion with research.

The concept for this broadcast is wonderful. It seems like some changes were already in progress. A more recent interview was less lecture and more conversation. Please keep improving.
