“"And now, for his in-depth political analysis, Kara Swisher's 19 year old son - live from his holiday in Argentina".
I have been a listener of this show since the beginning and I have enjoyed it for most of that time, but over the past few months it's getting harder to stay a listener. The banter and humour between the hosts used to feel natural and genuine, now it feels scripted and forced - as if they received a studio note at some point that said "the listeners like your banter, let's lean into that more". The result is a grating and cringe-worthy back and forth which I'm sure is genuine offline but when the mic is on feels inauthentic and forced. When the hosts offer their thoughts and analysis on tech and political topics it's usually insightful, but those moments seem to be coming less often and everything between those brief moments is getting increasingly frustrating, especially in comparison to how the show was in the beginning.”Read full review »
