Keep your political slants out of it

Just report on the tech need and keep your political slants out of it. Other than that an informative podcast.

Editorialism gone too far

Generally good quick tech news. Not sure where they find these hosts. Today’s commented on Apple’s latest ad with a minute long tirade about consumerism and Apple’s “disgusting” ad strategy. This is absolutely too far for a tech new podcast. Just give us the news please and let listeners for their own opinions.

Please bring the old TechCrunch back

I have listen every day for years but the new fake AI sounding voices and other new elements make my skin crawl. Maybe they are trying trying to appeal to a younger audience? For now, I’ve moved my morning podcast routine to Morning Brew.

Become the Anti Musk cast

Are used to listen to this every morning, but over the last six months it’s just become the anti-Elon Musk podcast. Just report tech news and leave your silly bias’s us out of it please!

Content: great, sound effects: awful

The content is great... The sound between news items is apalling! I flinched and almost dropped my coffee the first time I heard it 😬
