Good production values, but often misses the mark
It's Sarah stripped of practicality or useful facts, and Martin docking his natural raunchy humor at every turn. Where's the after hours vibe? Where are the comedy writer(s)? Where's the sponsor. It feels like two tech and bar loving hipsters forced to do a kids show, except if you imagined that it would have been funnier, because they'd be getting pissed off at the restrictions and doing their own thing. It's like a nerdy, lukewarm morning zoo show. The fact that their live chat room is regulated to be family friendly is a tremendous unfunny joke. The hosts curse occasionally, but you'll get kicked from the chat room doing the same to describe a joke. This show should at least be PG-13. It feels like Leo has done a deserved favor to his old co-workers, I wish that they could cut loose some more and make a richer show, and that should attract some advertisers too. Like a humorous T-shirt website, or a brewery. Twit needs to get their act together more. Will they as they transition to downloadable video, it remains to be seen.

Out of work Sarah Lane and Martin Sargent created twif out of boredom from losing their jobs at Revision 3. With help from Leo Laporte, the show has evolved into a weekly podcast. It's better to watch live because you can see whats happening. Purely listening can be confusing. Overall, Sarah...Read full review »
