“Been listening to the show since it was birthed. Keep up the good work guys! BUT may I make one request: in your summary, could you please add time markers to the segments of your show? I listen to a zillion podcasts, and that feature is invaluable, in order to listen to as many as I do,...”Read full review »

“These guys are fun but possibly shilly. Not enough labour and humanistic analysis. Sometimes just fun fluffy coverage that aligns with the tech industries interests when they have CEO guests.”

“Iβm giving a 5 star bc 99% of the time, these guys provide an incredibly thoughtful and balanced approach to covering tech issues, and generally admit to any blind-spots and biases. BUTβ¦ regarding the kids and social media conversation. You guys. Cβmon. And I get it- when my daughter was 3 (and...”Read full review »

“Decent coverage about currently events in tech, but tends to have a strong anti-tech bias. I wish theyβd do a better job not letter their personal politics skews their coverage or even just cover tech in a way that focuses on the positive aspects and possible futures.”

What makes me comment is the episode with Kara Swisher and Daphne Keller. They were amazing, both in their own way. A breath of fresh air! Please, bring us more of this.”

“critiquing china for banning american social media companies and then encouraging america to do the same is a weird stance to take. I guess as long as meta, google and apple keep inviting you guys to their demos youβre okay with them stealing our data.”

“The content is generally good. The presentation is tiring β the hosts joke around but are rarely actually funny, theyβre always yelling, and and you get the sense they speed up the recording and close up silent breaks, which just makes it all more frenetic. Beyond the hosts, the entire production...”Read full review »

“About the Gemini bias controversy, I think that you and other AI pundits are missing something.
Yeah, thereβs underlying bias in genAI tools because of the human bias in the internet they all ingested, and in the case of Gemini images, Google βovercorrectedββ¦
But the OTHER thing about Gemini...”Read full review »

I donβt know who hurt him in his formative years, but heβs clearly taking it out on big tech. Maybe they represent some kind of bad stepfather...”Read full review »
