Customer Reviews
Tough as Nails
In a recent review This is My Next Podcast was described as "tough as nails." If you enjoy melifluous, tech-oriented conversation unfettered by any hipster, corporate overtones I highly recommend subscribing to this podcast.
Josh Nilay and Paul are back!
If you are like me, and enjoyed the Engadget podcast immensely then you will find a new home here! The former hosts of said podcasts for several years have now started up a new one and I for one am looking forward to hearing them talk about tech and geeky news. I was quite sad to hear them go from the former site. But I am really glad they stuck together and have started a new venture. Good luck guys! You've got me as a subscriber through thick and thin!
Exciting new advanture of the familiar triforce
Looking forward to it!
Please go easy with Museo Slab 500 though, the font is abused, be gentle.
