“It’s nice to see the hosts of reply all try and struggle, then graduate to a better podcast. Good, but the hosts can do better (and they do)”

“This is a good podcast but reply all is better because it gets more in depth and you get more of the story. I sort of get that these short burst is for the internet generation with low attention spans. But that’s what makes PJ and Alex so great, whether it’s the short TLDR or longer reply all,...”Read full review »

“The first 36 or so episodes were fantastic! PJ and Alex were wonderful hosts. The problem with there episodes was I wanted them to be longer. And that’s what there other podcast, ReplyAll, is. TLDR with PJ and Alex deserves 5 Stars.
Meredith ruined TLDR. Her first couple episodes were fine....”Read full review »

“Great show, the original host have moved on to" reply all “ but still very much worth the time. Show" #46 - Episode 45 Redux “ looked to be a death blow but i really wish it was still on. The show gets a slight different focus when the new host takes over but I think the host does a great...”Read full review »

“The show was great before the original hosts left to do Replay All, and sadly the show has gone downhill fast since then. Now the episodes have taken on a more preachy gender-focused tone instead of a "here's this interesting thing in tech" tone. The first 40 episodes are great, but...”Read full review »

“Although the show did lose some of its magic after Alex and PJ left, the last two episodes with Meredith were getting back on track! It’s too bad that this segment seems to be cancelled.
Even though it’s a year later, I am still disgusted by Wadhwa’s response in Episode 45. Yes, it was wrong...”Read full review »

“I subscribed to TLDR after learning about the show on Reply All. I just listened to Episode #45 and I am shocked. I’m confident the feedback for this episode has been vitriolic and I have no wish to add to the maelstrom, so I'll just go ahead and unsubscribe. Bye.”Read full review »

“First off, go download Reply All. It's what the original hosts of the show are doing now.

“Like others, I would suggest following the original hosts over to Reply All. I’m very surprised WNYC would hire a host this unsophisticated. It sounds like she’s someone’s assistant who got the gig because no one else was around at the time. I would recommend they recast with someone more...”Read full review »
