“Andy, Leo, Jason and Alex bring a refreshingly balanced panel of seasoned experts with different backgrounds. Each one of them has a different perspective and I sincerely enjoy it.”

“I'm proud to be a Club Twit member now.
I have been a fan of Leo, Laporte, and friends for over a decade. They are the go to People for Tek news in all operating systems. I am a Apple Mac, and iOS person.
I love the app pics on MacBreak Weekly Every week and they always spread knowledge of...”Read full review »

“I am disappointed that Leo allows people like Alex Lindsay promote destructive behaviors on this show. He mentioned rating apps 1 star out of spite and preaching this in twitter. This is not the type of people we want to see in the panel. Please remove him from the panel and I will reverse this...”Read full review »

“7/14. Andy can’t speak one sentence without stuttering. Sad.
Hey Leo, not everyone is an atheistic California liberal. Maybe you shut it down or change. The God fearing, gun toting conservatives have money too., but I will never give you a penny as long as Andy is a guest and you both...”Read full review »

The only thing left for me on the TWiT network is Steve Gibson and his show.”

“Mr Snell should host this show every week. Andy needs to leave because he gets too political and doesn’t even seem to like Apple. Leo talks over everyone too often. Alex just comes off as a rich guy who has everything. There’s a base for a good show here but certain people need to be cut. Clean...”Read full review »

“Andy used to be the reason I listened. Now he’s the reason I just stopped. If I want non-tech related political commentary, I’ll watch the news.
These shows used to be an escape from politics. Now they are as infected with it as everything else.”

“Leo’s overall negativity towards devices and software he doesn’t “agree” with (eg; the Vision Pro) and his willingness to constantly interrupt his cohosts and guests is driving listeners from this show. Maybe it’s time for him to leave the show, or even the network.”

“Alex Lindsay is the worst. His constant adoring and narcissistic love of Apple and their obvious faults even when everybody else accepts that they are not perfect, is beyond tiresome and annoying. They need to cut him loose already. Can't listen to him anymore. The other hosts are great though.”Read full review »

“Andy Ihnatko calling users dirtbags for giving one star to apps is the exact reason you are getting this one star. It also seems that the show tends to turn into an echo chamber. I come to the show for interesting discussion on tech, and I am tired of hearing about how Apple’s approach to the...”Read full review »

“Andy Ihnatko is a bigot and needs to be removed from the show.
This used to be a great show but Mr. Ihnatko has became plain vile with his constant political interjections. I come here to listen to tech, Ihnatko seems to have become nothing but a mouthpiece for his political beliefs. Stick to...”Read full review »

“I used to listen to the show weekly about 4 years ago and then gave it a break. Picked it back up at the start of 2024 and it’s unbearable now. Cannot stand the way Leo constantly interrupts or talks over the guests. He also bickers too much with Alex. I agree with the other reviewers, Andy is a...”Read full review »

Except Leo constantly interrupts Alex to bash his opinions and bring politics into it. No wonder TwiT is...”Read full review »

“Leo: please let others finish their thoughts before you interject. You most frequently speak over both Alex Lindsey and Andy Ihnatko, and the interruptions are enough to get me to stop listening about halfway through what is otherwise a great weekly show.”

“After 15+ years I’m done.
Andy rambling on and on and on. Something that takes 30 seconds to say turns into 4-5 min. No lie I changed my skip to 45 sec and click at least 4 times when Andy speaks.
Alex God complex - I’m right and you’re wrong nothing you can say to changing mind. Leo Finally...”Read full review »

“Go listen to Upgrade instead. Andy and Leo are becoming increasingly unbearable.
I used to have 5-6 TWIT podcasts subscribed. I’m down to two now (MBW and Security Now).
Liao doesn’t talk much in security now. Thankfully.
MBW might become the next one to fall. Alex, go to a new show!”

“Leo is a great host. The shows without him lack the spark of debate that is needed. I like the back and forth between Andy and Alex. The latter is more polished in his delivery and makes a compelling argument. But Andy is often right in the long term and gives a non-Apple fanboy perspective that...”Read full review »

But the last couple of years, this is no longer Macbreak...”Read full review »

“Have been a long time listener and subscriber but enough is enough. I find I am constantly hitting the 30sec scrub forward button as Andy just rambles on saying nothing.

“I’ve been a fan for years, it’s a great show, but Leo and Andy need to let Alex talk. He brings great insights to the podcast, especially concerning AV tech, and yet he gets the least opportunity to talk out of anyone. Andy could also use more brevity. This most recent episode Leo continually cut...”Read full review »

“I no longer find Mac break Weekly to be a podcast that provides a balanced view on the various Apple-centric topics. Things are now extremely left-wing.
Some of the presenters would do well to research both sides of the arguments.”

What doesn’t… Leo has a habit of over-talking (audio delay?) and interrupting the others, a lot. White guy club,...”Read full review »
