Hope not, one of my fav podcasts!

Quit hating. What’s wrong with saying “um” or “ya know” anyway? I’m serious. Have you critics ever asked yourself that question? Is it because you were told to abhor it in some TEDtalk or during an NPR interview? Norton’s been around the block (ever heard of TechTV?) and knows what he’s doing. I’d much rather listen to a show that doesn’t take itself so seriously and actually has personality even if it comes at the cost of lacking oratorical polish.

A couple of poser’s who don’t really know anything about hardware beyond what they parrot from popular tech sites. How Patrick is allowed to host any podcast is baffling. He can’t finish a sentence without saying “um” or “ya know”. Total trash cast.

Really good content. Though I have to listen in small segments, as I counted over 30 times the host has said “ya know” in just 2 min. It can be very distracting, but hopefully will improve over time

I love the podcast. It keeps me well informed on all things computers without having to massive amount of research. It has brought me back into the PC gaming realm and I've since, stopped playing my PS4 and hotheaded my PC to be able to game on it. Thanks for all the great information and I'm looking forward to future episodes.

There is some decent commentary in this podcast, but it's pretty cheesy and kind of low rent. And I don't know what this says about me, but the dude on here saying "Oh my goodness" constantly is unbelievably annoying. He says it in lieu of a pause or 'um' constantly and finishes sentences consisting of very banal topics with "oh my goodness" for no reason whatsoever. Whichever one you are, can you please tone this down? Or at least edit it out. I haven't counted, but I would guess I hear it about 15-20 times per show.

Great show, but if Patrick says "oh my goodness" one more time I might unsubscribe. J/k...kinda.

One of my favorite podcasts.

…Mostly because Patrick Norton can’t keep his mouth shut. He has always gone on but his ramblings are getting worse. Maybe he is spending too much time around Leo. The TWIT formula is to have a host and subject matter experts. People listen to hear the subject matter experts not the host! The best is Scott Wilkinson and Padre SJ is pretty darn good also. Leo can do well when he wants to (or has to like with Steve Gibson) but also goes on in some shows. Patrick has got to be the worst.

If it were a humanoid, I would let my daughter date it.

This show is quality. When I need in depth info about the state of consumer technology this is the show I listen to. Keep it up guys!

If you love to learn about computer hardware. This is the show to listen too.

This podcast is fantastic, but it has not updated since 11/16/12. I'm not sure why, but I hope it is fixed soon. I always look forward to the next episode.

This is a great podcast, every week I enjoy listening in as an easy way to keep current with upcoming hardware news. Recently I had someone ask me how they could learn more about building a PC an this was the direction I pointed them in.

Looking to build my first gaming pc..Lots of great info. Very knowledgable hosts...

The lack of chemistry is apparent. Things like that usually take time.

Love everything about this podcast except...Patrick Norton. Replacing him with a less obnoxious host would make this podcast so much better!

If you want a podcast about computer hardware then listen to Ryan Shrout's other and much better podcast, the PC Perspective podcast. It is more intelligent, informative and has smarter, less cheesy co-hosts that aren't Patrick Norton.

Love the show. Such great information. Sometimes it's just a recap of what happens on the PC Per show, but I love Patrick's input. I also love that every time I've emailed a question in, it's actually been answered! Would recommend to anyone that loves tech.

Patrick saves this podcast and makes it so awesome!

Both hosts could work on their presentation skills, but there's no denying their knowledge on the topic. Would be great if Patrick Norton stoppe punctuating EVERY sentence with a chuckle/grunt/snort/laugh, tho.

I really like this show. I like this show because it has a good amount of interesting news, topics, and opinions. Thanks guys keep it up.

This is a really interesting very technical podcast, and very fair regarding various platforms and vendors. The main host is very pleasant and knowledgeable. The second host (Patrick something?) gets annoying fast because he's mainly laughing or blowing in the microphone at his own dumb jokes.

Great show. Ryan and Patrick make a great team and the show is very informative

If you have any questions about what kind of hardware to buy to upgrade your computer...look no further. Thank you for all your hardwork!!!

Look forward to listening each week

This is my favorite computer podcast by far. Ryan is an excellent host who tells it like it is and the show is even better with the addittion of Patrick Norton. I am not a gamer but I do like to stay on top of the latest hardware out there and these guys help me do it. Give them five minutes and you will be hooked too!

Only two shows left with Colleen on and I have to say the show will be much improved once she is gone. Other than her, this is a fabulous podcast.

Please replace colleen with Patrick Norton, or get Leo back! Her obnoxious personality and "I'm so smart" attitude makes me want to punch a puppy in the face! Don't get me wrong, I like this pod-cast when colleen is not on here! Ryan Shrout is a very good host and can carry a discusion when there isn't a nag that cuts him off...

But coleen must go

Colleen, has no business being onthis show... For weeks I have not heard a single constructive comment from her. She may a good lady, but a radio host she is not.

Ryan is a great host when given the chance and not interrupted by Colleen. Sometimes I wonder who is hosting this show? Ryan is a professional and is polite not to make a big deal out of it but I wonder if internally is he getting frustrated? Colleen is very intelligent but not suited to host this show, in my opinion. Personally, I've stopped listening to this show and that's a shame because Ryan has a wealth of knowledge that I'm missing out on. I hope to return to this show if and when Leo hosts again. On a positive note I love the Twit Network and wish Leo and staff all the best!

Colleen can be contadictory and bothersome. Also, I think that most of your demographic is the 'pc gamer' so don't worry about 'overdoing' that.

I'd give it 5 stars if it wasn't for her.

I completely agree with the previous poster. Colleen must go. Ryan is the host, but with Colleen on air, you wouldn't know it. If Leo is unavailable, do an interview maybe?? This was becoming one of my favorite podcasts on the TWIT network, but if the trend of having an over-bearing 'cohost' continues, I'll have to stop listening. Please, please, please Leo, avert this potential fail!!! Ryan is a competent and capable host, let him do his thing.

90% Awesome episode was a disaster. Colleen talks over your co-host. Pulls him off topic, and just makes for an all around hard to listen episode. Keep her behind the controls, where she belongs.

I miss techtv, Leos the man !

This is great. Very informed Ryan is an absolute pro. Although (sorry Leo!) he is constantly interrupted by Leo. Some interruptions are fine because Leo is asking questions on behalf of the listener at times, but Ryan should be allowed to completely voice his thoughts without SO MANY interruptions! I love the TWiT network. This could easily become my favorite podcast! A GREAT addition to the network!!

Dissapointing.... just another Leo Laporte show....He is clearly the host and struggles to stay on topic as usual.

Every podcast from Twit production is the best and this one is no exception

I found myself here because I am a fan of Ryan Shrout's work, but not so much a fan of the Pc Perspective podcast. I really find this one on one format so much easier and enjoyable to listen to. Ryan is always very well informed and tuned into the technology as well as the companies behind the tech. Leo makes a great partner in this duo by asking questions and sharing his thoughts in a way that keeps the show very much on topic and flowing nicely. If you found yourself unimpressed with the Pc Perspective podcast because of the round table format and the many interjections (many of which had nothing to do with the subject matter), give this one a try. This is really Ryan getting a chance to do what he does best, discuss the hardware he reviews over at Pc Perspective.

I am a teenager who love the elctronic world and how and why it works, this is an amazing podcast as well as an inspiering!! All should listen to TWICH daily! Whether you are an expert of some one like me, anyone can enjoy and learn from TWICH

TWICH is an excellent tech based podcast. While TWIT is now almost a pure social media/comedy podcast, TWICH is filled with computer hardware news and explanations of new technology. Highly recommended for those looking for substance in their podcasts.

Ryan geeks each week so the less geek can understand. Twich is informative and understandable. Ryan's style is perfect for this difficult subject and he could be the heir to Leo at TWIT.

And on a weekly basis - just like the title says. Great show!

Long time TWIT listener. I subscribe to all of the other podcasts by Leo and was looking for a good hardware podcast when I stumbled upon this one. I'm delighted there is a computer hardware podcast that lives up to the same quality all of his other podcasts have.

But hey, I'm only slightly biased :)
