The hosts are SO up their own a**es. It’s hard to listen to at times. Neither seems cool or personally interesting but they sure think they are. If you can get past the cringe there is some good info sprinkled in.

Smart, funny, & spot-on opinions! Thanks for letting me listen to your excellent chats.

I’m a good looking man that loves Scott… hahaha Kara has Elon/Trump derangement syndrome

What’s wrong with MSNBC having women over 70 as their main audience? And you say it with such scorn! You’re getting a bit long in the tooth, fella, so you might want to examine your obvious ageism. Or is it just against women???

Any sharp insights that used to be found here are long gone, just surface level drivel and mutual ego stroking. No guests with different perspectives. Recycled takes. Large portion of each episode dedicated to peacocking. I’m tapping out.

If you like your macroeconomic analysis from self-important coastal elites who can’t even see Main Street from the small window of their overpriced studio apartments, this podcast is for you. The smug Smisher in particular with her negativity and echo-chamber partisanship will make you want to...Read full review »

I love this show, but please let’s get over the partisan politics. I’m just so tired of it. Does everything in life have to be about politics? Politics aside and for all republicans and democrats, it’s going to be ok everyone. Let’s get to the topics everyone actually wants to hear about…there...Read full review »

You missed the point: no discussion about sexism, racism, misogyny, and xenophobia.
RaFa my dogs name via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/11/24
These two know SO much. Kara and Scott offer experienced and interesting perspective on current events and what’s happening in tech. I found it refreshing to hear their unpacking of the election results in the context of so many other elements I didn’t really consider. From reading the reviews...Read full review »

Swisher is a far left pundit. Same old stuff. Zzzzz. Latest states Biden won debt deal…. Not only not true but frankly stupid.
Xxzzqw via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/10/24
The arrogance and political short sightedness, especially from Kara. Just dripping with disdain from anyone not in her class.
wenavision via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/09/24
Terrible
shul123 via Apple Podcasts · India · 11/09/24
Poor Kara is so hung up by Elon she sounds like a stuck record. She is clearly not very bright, unlike Scott, a proven academic who is worth listening to……
Paul R... via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 11/08/24
I totally agree with Kara. The disinformation in this campaign was off the charts. No matter where I went ( I live in suburban Illinois) people were making snide comments that were inaccurate about VP Harris, the campaign, or the economy. Musk spent 44 billion to buy Twitter and ended up buying...Read full review »
Kimberlys003 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/08/24
I love the back and forth between you two. You know how to disagree amicably and we need more of that. Scott thank you for being man enough to admit when you are wrong. I appreciate your thoughtful insight on the young man crisis. Kara I found you because another podcaster mentioned your name and...Read full review »
Shaharah L via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/08/24
I can listen to Scott any day but Kara is just so much in her left bubble, it’s annoying. Though I still follow the show I do not listen to a lot of the episodes because I do not like the fact that she dismisses anything which is outside of her woke left bubble. Plus, please try to bring in more...Read full review »
pnagar via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/08/24
Love this show and thanks to Scott for Balance and checking Kara’s comments but I learn a lot about the liberal left and their thoughts. Lately Kara has been basing and doing her best to destroy the Tesla brand mainly because she dislikes Elon. This is ironic because she was so against the...Read full review »
Neutral listener CO via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/08/24
In the wake of Trump’s win, the only thing I want to listen to is Kara and Scott’s take on what comes next. It’s been three long days of waiting for Friday’s episode but knowing that it’s coming gives me peace of mind in a way that nothing else can right now. Thanks for all you do.
heidi_spidey via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/08/24
I love this show and as a Trump supporter I still respect and value Scott’s and Kara opinion. But common, ease off on Musk and insults please.
ED_Imbox via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/07/24
Starting listening to this pod several months ago to get the other side's perspective. It is a tough listen and shows how siloed we can be. This episode 2 days past the election is comedy gold. Will be interesting to hear if they recognize how out of touch they are or place the blame...Read full review »

I listened to this podcast for years because it was well balanced but it has declined. I’m sick of the Elon bashing and arrogance from Kara. Unfollowed
CES469 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/05/24
Pity the poor richest man on earth, his feelings were hurt. Musk can eat a blank & he should lose is security contracts & clearance. I’d argue the government should take ownership of his satellites out of national security concerns. Screw his feelings. He’s not brilliant. He hires well...Read full review »
Boilingrug via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/05/24
Prefer Kara on her own. Scott’s jokes are beyond offensive to women.
coconutfrills via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 11/03/24
Really Kara l? you once said… “you’re too famous to be on a dating app”???? You have got to find some humility in your persona.…..I hate to break this to you but 1/2 the time I mention I listen to this podcast ….EVERYONE knows who Scoot is and I usually have to explain who you are and I always...Read full review »
Anthony Domina via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/02/24
The show works better when Kara doesn’t dominate and shut Scott down. I get that men usually are guilty of this. Kara, you have flipped things a little too much and always insist you are right and ignore Scott’s thoughts. Essentially you are being a male jerk! Stop it, let the other person...Read full review »
Sifterglean via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/02/24
Ive loved Pivot since 2020. Kara is amazing and Scott was….for the most part… Scotts disgusting and ill-informed takes on the ongoing genocide in Palestine has been difficult and disappointing to hear and that is an extreme understatement. I’ve stopped making this a priority podcast. Totally get...Read full review »
ButtHurt2020 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/01/24
It’s always about how she was the first, she knows everyone/everything, and she’s great and therefore cannot stop interrupting people. He is deeply sexist and there’s never a comment about a guy that’s remotely as ugly and brutal as his comments about the women in any given situation. Women get...Read full review »

Recent frantic and arrogant political posturing makes me reconsider whether “all things tech and media” reporting was even on the level. Congrats for sinking below the level of those you castigate.
anoo9 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/01/24
I love listening to Kara and Scott - I Iearn something new every Tuesday and Friday even if I don’t agree with everything they say. BTW Kara and Rachel Maddow are the most intelligent women - no I mean people ! in today’s media landscape. And Kara is absolutely correct to focus on Elon Musk- she...Read full review »

Way too many commercials…i know you have to make money, but with this many commercials, there is no choice but to skip them all
amdedhed via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/31/24
What was once a somewhat balanced, informative podcast has turned into a platform for Kara’s disdain for Musk, Trump, Besos and the likes. Every week, the snide comments, digs and sighs are too much. Plus, she sees most things through the eyes and mind of a diehard Democrat so it’s unbalanced....Read full review »

Enough please
Cswan18 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/30/24
Yes yes. The banter version with Kara was fun but the full essay was riveting and refreshing.
Biddybump via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/28/24
Less about the hosts personal lives
Mme Blink via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/25/24
I was willing to put up with his penis jokes and arrogant bluster, but he lost me several weeks ago with his enthusiastic support for Israeli war tactics against Lebanon & Iran as an effective way of controlling terrorists attack on Israel. I grew up in the Middle East and he clearly is...Read full review »

These people are absolutely insufferable. It's a shame because I think they're smart and probably have valuable insight but THEY ARE AWFUL. Self-congratulatory, pretentious, and morally just bizarre.Read full review »
MissMiridion via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/24/24
I used to listen to this show every week, but sadly I can no longer listen to podcasters who turn a blind eye to the mass killing of innocent Palestinian children. Just like brown lives are worth less to the powers that be, I guess brown listeners are worth less to Kara and Scott.
SMK12391 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/21/24
Sadly this podcast host lies so frequently listening to this show is unmanageable.
Morgan Van Doorn1977 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/19/24
To call Harris’s fox interview anything other then pathetic discredits you and makes this hard to continue listening to.
LD💛 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/18/24
Really sad to see Scott being so deaf towards Palestinians getting murdered on a daily basis is appalling.
Jalandhar80 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/10/24
I love Kara and Scott’s insightful commentary. I don’t necessarily always agree with them but I like that they speak their minds and don’t try to pander to the establishment or status quo.
AADSYS via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/09/24
Hosts are maliciously uninformed, hateful and hypocritical. It’s this kind of low quality content and lack of research that makes Democrats look so bad. Luckily the culture is turning and people are starting to realize how unhinged and radical people like this really are.
SuperVal77 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/09/24
I have completely lost interest in listening to both of the hosts ego massaging. Where I believe there once was substance, there are now poor half baked hot takes, unfinished sentences, and stories of a judgemental and crusty old man trying to act like an 18 year old. I no longer think Scott is...Read full review »
occam's sunrise via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 10/08/24
I love Kara and Scott and their banter is hilarious. The show is an interesting mix of tech news (and analysis), politics, and discussion of American culture. I don’t always agree, but enjoy the conversation. Sure, the hosts aren’t above name dropping re their celebrity encounters, but I’m...Read full review »
L and M Faris via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/07/24
It is astonishing to me that a husband, father, and public figures would trivialize serious issues such as consent and emotional vulnerability. “Just get her drunk” or “if she has a good relationship with her father, walk away”. He is an embarrassment to Kara.
ModeratePodcastLover via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/05/24
I find Kara Swisher’s insights into the tech industry great because she knows so many of the big players. I first watched her on CNBC years ago. I know less about Scott, but his insights into entrepreneurship and business are pretty good, too. I personally would prefer no crude jokes or swearing...Read full review »
Conantron via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 10/04/24
Sadly had to unsubscribe after listening regularly for a couple years. Kara has increasingly injected conversations with high school- level gossip and subjective takes (“I sat next to them”, “they hate women, they’re sad, they’re weird, etc.”). Yikes. It’s not what I was tuning in for, and...Read full review »
