“I used to listen to this podcast a lot, but there's too much self-promotion in it for it to still be interesting. Just today, I thought I'd give it another chance by listening to it on my 15 min walk to work.

“Steve takes very technical subjects and breaks them down very cleanly for the semi-advanced lay user or tech person. I think this is the most informative podcast out there on a broad tech subject - not just talking heads arguing news of the day. - Do they get off the point and wander into...”Read full review »
