The early episodes of TWIT were great. It felt less organized but more authentic than today’s show. I’d be happy to just kick back listen to Leo, Kevin, John and Patrick talk about anything. I liked when Calacanis came on and ruffled a few feathers. Things started to go downhill when the Woz came on and talked about green lasers. By far the worst episodes are those that include Jerry Pournelle. This geezer won’t shut up. You gotta checkout his website. This guy is stuck in 1975.
I hope things work out for Leo as he seems like a great guy. But I miss the less polished feel of the early versions. Leo and the gang used to speak their mind much more freely. Now we have Leo making sure everyone stays on topic while he tosses Dell ads around the podcast.
I’m going to give TWIT a few more weeks and see how it goes. If it doesn’t improve I’ll delete it from my iTunes podcasts.
