Reviews
The format for this podcast appears to have shifted to only interview Internet personalities. This works when someone is engaging and interesting, but some of these folks bring little insight into their own influence and the interview serves no purpose. I miss Taylor sharing the things online...Read full review »

It has devolved into just PR for random influencers

Just listened to the summer trend episode and felt compelled to write a review. Oil paintings in refrigerators as an “aesthetic” trend? Is she kidding? Would be beneficial if Taylor maybe had a permanent cohost to balance out her views which clearly seem to just cling to whatever stupid thing is...Read full review »

Always love Taylor’s insights into whatever is happening online

Very good show.

To nobody’s surprise, Taylor Lorenz seems to like to think that her opinions are as valuable and true as facts. BEGGING this woman to log off the internet. It’s clearly damaging to her mental health.

Taylor’s insightful, accessible cultural analysis alchemizes the brain rot I subject myself to every week and leaves me with a sharper, nuanced worldview. Her work has seriously changed the way I make sense of the internet. And it’s very well produced- a pleasure to listen to!!!

I find some of the content very interesting, but Taylor’s co-host (Zach?) is ill-informed, not funny, grating, and just takes away from the podcast. Had to unsubscribe after most recent episode given his continued routine appearance.

Pros: Great if you’re not looking to be smarter and well informed. Great if you’re looking to make yourself dumber. Cons: They speak about fact checking but they don’t fact check themselves. The podcast is chock full of misinformation.

It has a range of intriguing perspectives, but it appears to be heavily biased. The arguments seem speculative at times and lack thoroughness, which is evident from the writing style. I gave it a fair chance, but it doesn't merit continued listening! Unfortunately this didn’t cut it for me.Read full review »

I liked this podcast until the most recent episode when the girl says “the panic around social media apps and children’s health is absurd” ….. excuse me?????? Do you have children?????? If you don’t, then don’t comment on this. It’s extremely stressful for parents. The bullying that goes on on...Read full review »

Her latest bits of reporting have not only been misleading, complete with bias, and factually incorrect, but also just plain dangerous. The brain worms are spreading, and Taylor has become a full fledged denier. Having already peaked in her career, this podcast is just another in her many...Read full review »

podcast is interesting enough but the logo is sooooo unfriendly to look at, the color scheme is a nightmare and nearly gives me a headache every time. someone needs to look up accessible color palette design.
cosmiccreep via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/13/24
I like the format of the show, but even though I’m loosely aligned with Taylor’s politics, I find her analysis cringey and surface level. It’s as if she just regurgitates the top comments in a comment section on TikTok. If you’re going to act as an authority on business, economics, culture, and...Read full review »

Seriously, this is a great podcast! Taylor’s reporting is top-notch and unparalleled in the industry. Definitely worth a listen each week!

Taylor Lorenz is the worst of the worst
zombie0651 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/05/24
Honestly it’s really refreshing to hear a voice that takes into consideration and understands how young people operate in this increasingly complex polarized world where we on a foundational level rely upon tech that we fear and also use it every single day to do about anything you can think of!
Stevenbal via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/13/24
Taylor Lorenz brings a critical perspective to her coverage of the intersection of tech, pop culture, business and more. The guests have all been very interesting - the topics vary, but all offer a nuanced look at topical issues.
Jeff_Witter via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/11/24
Excellent writer finally has a podcast so I don’t have to read anymore. She also has some good meme pages but I’m not allowed to share memes with her but this is not enough to lower the star rating….
Gregikon via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/11/24
Meh
Not bad for free entertainment but a little disappointing. Taylor seems to be using it as a vehicle to promote her own (debatable) opinions vs. providing an evenhanded take on news. Unfortunately she’s so far primarily booked guests who agree with her on topics so I’m generally left after...Read full review »

Like the podcast for the most part, but really don’t enjoy the guy host.
autshi via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/09/24
Different perspective on tech cases and also very well done!

Ugh
Go away… please
Keepn-it-real via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/05/24
great podcast idea and topics. i could not stand the male host. maybe he was having an off day, but in the episode i listened to, he never really had a foundational argument to lorenz’s claims. so it wasn’t even a dialogue or discussion; he genuinely sounded like he didn’t want to be there lol....Read full review »

Looooove Taylor and always appreciate her point of view on tech news.
Just Jeff via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/02/24
Maybe others don’t use podcast for education, but there are so many topics about which I feel ill informed. In one episode, I advanced my knowledge base so significantly on the topic TikTok, that I now feel confident forming a strong opinion about what my congresspeople should do next. Thank you.

Just finished E1 of Power User. I should have known that Ms. Lorenz would not hesitate to inject her politics into a podcast that she owns and she didn’t disappoint. I listed to tech podcasts for tech - not more political opinions.

Worth a listen

Great podcast!

Great takes on everything ♥️

Not great
Alejandropf44 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/29/24
It would have been good to hear more viewpoints on the TikTok legislation. Felt a bit like an echo chamber. There are some good points to be made in favor of it and against.
kitgrdhujf via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/28/24
Taylor truly is a unique voice in tech journalism and I’m thrilled she started a podcast! She is not afraid to make enemies because she is not about access journalism. She tells it like it is!
Mattyrosen via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/27/24
Looking forward to hearing more!
