Another All about Apple show

This is up to the producers to sort this. I fast forwarded to the arena this week because I find her style not to my taste (and that's the point - it's just my opinion) and then saw her interrupt the other app presentations. But that's up to Jason to tell her if he's unhappy with this. In the meantime when Myriam is on I'll do the same.

John Montgomery Great way to put it but to add to what you said, I enjoyed the back and fourth of Myriam and Ron. Neither of them are really arguing and even though she tends to talk over people she is never doing it out of disrespect. People that get all worked up over her are overreacting like you said

There where times when it felt like, instead of being a semi-regular co-host of a podcast, it was instead "The Myriam Podcast" and the others were the guests. It's up to them to decide what's best for the show. But outside of her hardware reviews, which are very good, it's been a pretty poor product.

I like Miriam but I don't like when people give an opinion like it's fact, just because it's what they believe. Ron called her out on the Apple pay usage numbers vs. Google wallet. I've been using Google wallet for over a year and a half now. Similar experiences to Ron. Mostly positive.

Tough to replace Gina eh? I think TWIG is having the same problem.

 

I have not yet seen any guest either on AAA or TWIG that can replace Gina. I suggest that they should continue the search. Criteria : Polite, amiable but smart and at times will fight for her point of view while continuing to be her pleasant self. Not many people have these qualities. I don't.

 

One should value the success Jason developed with Gina and Ron on AAA these past years. He improved the show by balancing the serious discussion with casualness while making sure he has control over the amount of banter. AAA is not a show for heavy discussion or for too much fun. Its like having an intellectual discussion with a group of friends at a cafe. How serious or crazy can you get?

 

I am one of those people that was very happy when Myriam joined TWIT because I have always believed that TWIT sorely needs someone with technical expertise on smartphones. And I have been very happy with her reviews on Before You Buy. I honestly hope she continues.

 

However I have a feeling that she might not be a good fit for Jason and Ron on AAA. I have yet to see the chemistry. Like I said, its tough to replace Gina. So it may not be anyone's fault. I am willing to stay patient until a solution is found.
