G+_Scott Grant Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 You don't want a google expert on the show or is it just Gina you don't like. I think she's great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Marcus (Duskycub) Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 Gina i stopped watching Twig cause of her, its just me but to me she doesn't make a good host. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Scott Grant Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 That's fair enough. But when it comes to google, she seems to know what she's talking about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Adrian Warman Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 I'm a little unsure how comfortable Gina will be in the AAA show. Don't get me wrong, I rate her very highly indeed - she is intelligent, has a great sense of humor, communicates easily and clearly, and has a great deal of technical knowledge and depth gained from real, practical experience. All great skills that explain why (in my opinion) she's so good on a significant and substantial show like TWiG. The problem for me is that AAA doesn't feel like the same kind of show. It's a bit lighter, it's about the shiny new gadgets, it's more "person in the street considering purchase of phone A or app B" or "my app P is better than your app Q". I just have this nagging doubt that the AAA format doesn't match Gina's undoubted strengths. Of course, I'll listen to the show, and we'll see what happens over the weeks.

G+_Scott Grant Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 That's all the viewers can do, give her a chance. I think Gina will be good for the show. To be honest, I only started watching AAA on Eileen' last show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G+_Marcus (Duskycub) Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 I agree with that Adrian Warman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_gerald miller Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 I like Gina personally.She might add some insights that will be counter to many of the thing we usually hear on the show. Having Gina on the show will keep me listening and watching. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Yonas A (eriman) Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 i think All About Android need an Android Geek fresh blood to the TWiT network. I got board to see the same faces all over the shows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Stephan Powell Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 I like Gina and I think she will bring some fresh perspective to the conversations. Gina always has intelligent things to say and will keep the boys in check with good humour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Craig Lambert Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 Didn't she bail on Android for iOS for awhile? I got the impression from listening to TWiG that she's back on Android though. Plus, she's going to have to remote in all the time, which kinda blows. Shannon Morse would have been an awesome fit but I think she uses an iPhone. Oh well. I like Gina a lot, so hopefully the flow of the show continues. We'll see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Remington O'Dell Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 Wow, this is the first I've heard of this. I love Gina and I think she will make a great addition to AAA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_James Thatcher Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 I like Gina, and I think she adds cred but to the wrong crowd, its not a techy tech audience that watches AAA, its more of an android fan show.... I don't want to learn coding tips from the show, I want news on apps, hardware, and yes, rumors of what will be cool. Its kind of the reason I stopped watching twig, that and it was less and less about cloud computing amd more about coding and journalism (which is fine, I just want that on a different show). I'm going to stick with AAA because I love the show and I hope it really hope it doesn't change. I want it to be funny and light hearted, not a Glee/Chipolte clubhouse.

G+_Brandon Kester Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 I've not really picked up the AAA podcast, but knowing Gina Trapani will be a regular is enough to get me to try it out. She is actually my favorite TWiG host. Sorry Leo Laporte and Jeff Jarvis ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Alex Knutson-Smisek Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 I think she'll bring a nice balance to the show. Adding a developer perspective will be interesting and might help the move in the direction of some more serious content mixed with the lighter news and rumors. I'm excited to watch after the new year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Andy Higgins Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 I also agree with Adrian Warman. I've stopped watching AAA because of the amount of 'filler' there seems to be. I always come away with the feeling that the program is aimed at younger viewers. I don't think the show is a good fit for Gina, (as oppose to Gina being a bad fit for the show). Unless of course Leo is wanting to improve the quality of the show and sees Gina as a way to do so. If this is the case then I hope she pulls it off.
