Customer Reviews
digg the new format
love the new format to cover 20 stories in 20 minutes. thanks! good job guys.
Concise, informative, actually fun to listen to
I work in the social/tech field, and this has quickly become my "every morning" podcast of choice. The 20 min format is just right, and the cast of characters on the SAIcast has this wildly perfect blend of humorous yet well-informed discussion. Now my girlfriend gets the benefit of me waxing poetic on Groupon's balance sheet at the dinner table.
Best discussion of tech news
I love this podcast and listen to every one. I always read SAI online, but I also very much appreciate hearing the hosts discuss the events and news they've written about. The only beef I have, and the reason I'm docking it 1 star, is that the podcasts are usually posted to iTunes really late. Usually I can't access it until the next day at the earliest. By then the news is a bit old. If you are reading this SAIcast please fix that and I'll up my rating ;)
