“I had no idea Wired had a Podcast. I love listening to the commentators. Wired has very articulate and intelligent editors, journalists, and guest experts in their particular fields of comment.”

“Lauren and Mike are super accessible for even those of us who are out of the loop with tech but want a splash of the latest information and discoveries. Feels like you are in the same room with a few smart friends that have cool jobs, and great recommendations. Also, they help inform me just...”Read full review »

“I really enjoy this one. Lauren and Mike regularly talk about what I’m thinking and reading about anyway, but they’re smarter and have more information. Also, Lauren’s pronunciation of “button” brings back CT memories. I had a 4th grade teacher who would respond to the same with “Whaddayou, from...”Read full review »

“Been listening to you for years, you’re my favorite podcast! An unremittingly sound source of weekly tech, culture, and unrestrained fun. Thanks for all you do, and not least, for being the wholesomest “bunch of English majors”. Much gratitude and respect from Edinburgh, Scotland”

“I usually hate podcasts where two people know each other very well, crack inside jokes, laugh at stupid things etc. However, this one is truly funny. I think the hosts are just smart people with good emotional intelligence level. The topics are interesting and relevant. I will keep listening.”

“I recently turned 30 and realized I’ve hit the point in my life where I’m less focused on nonsense and “fluff” on the internet and instead wanted to shift my focus on more real-world news and topics. Having worked in the IT field for 10+ years now, I wanted to realign my hobbies and interests...”Read full review »

“I have been listening to your podcast for the past two years, it is a welcome treat to my commute! For Michael Calore, if you have not read ‘The Magic Strings of Frankie Presto’ I strongly recommend. 1. Best book ever, 2. Brought me back to music.”

“Now former listener her. They have a very tenuous grasp on their own concept. Too many episodes that aren’t about gadgets or tech. For example the reasoning for The Case of the Not Stolen AirPods, was that because a court proceeding happened involving AirPods it was fair game to be on Gadget Lab....”Read full review »

“LOOK!
Hey, Gadget Lab.
Please, let me start by saying - this is easily a 5 star show. I absolutely love the topics, the host’s friendship-chemistry is incredible, and the audio is wonderful! All are superior!
So, why the 1 star? It’s a last ditch effort, tbfh.
Because I loved this show so...”Read full review »

“Michael and Lauren hit just the right mix of tech product comments with non-tech recommendations at close. It's like grabbing a cup of coffee with friends once a week. Happy 2021 New Year guys.

“I was listening to this year‘s review of the consumer-electronics show, and the host said that all of the sleep apnea studies that have been done are on men. This is blatantly false, but the show host was using this to promote a new product at the consumer electronic show. This show has factual...”Read full review »

“So why go to CES to deride products? Surely there were many products deserving of mention not derision, hearing aids for example. The rest, if not most of this pod, was a 30 something giggle-fest. At least we were spared Lauren's vocal fry. Sadly this podcast mirrors the decline of the magazine.”Read full review »

“Over the years this podcast has really fallen off the wagon, the hosts seem to hate the content they cover as part of their job. They frequently bring so much snark to what they’re covering (ie “it’s time to talk about X. Ugh do we have to??”), why even bother?”

“WIRED is a legendary tech magazine. So when you hear their journalists talk unrehearsed, you’ll be shocked at how little they know about tech. Their musings are unresearched, uninformed, and often inaccurate or flat out wrong. If you want to listen to a group of millennial English majors try to...”Read full review »
