Politics and Arguing Ruining this show
I am a longtime listener to this show. However, I am seriously considering dropping it from my queue. Between the constant Andy / Alex bickering (or more properly, Andy taking issue with many things Alex says in a very patronizing way) and the introduction of gender politics into the show, its becoming unlistenable. Believe it or not, not all technophiles share your political predilections. We listen to podcasts to get away from all the political stuff. But you can’t help yourselves. Andy is particularly irksome with his smug Northeast Liberal vibe. Get it together, talk Apple or I’m done. You may not care but I do and I am sorry you, like all the corporations you adore, can’t seem to keep politics out of your products. Edit: You didn’t listen. You think that you can spout all your leftist political views all day long on this podcast. And you’re right: You can. But this longtime listener can also vote with his feet. After 10 years, I am canceling my subscription to this podcast. That saddens me because I enjoyed the show in former times. But not what it has become.

Sorry guys, but this show is really disappointing these days. I read all the other reviews and they are right on. Would be great if you tried to hear what people are saying instead of just slamming them. Here's what I don't like: Way too long. Leo, some of your shows are over two...Read full review »

Excellent netcast! The hosts are just great together and I find it fantastic that there is weekly news to talk about....as I had my doubts that this would in fact be weekly. Scott Bourne is also great when Leo's out of town... [podcast/netcast meh]Read full review »
