G+_Alexander Avseyev Posted September 29, 2015 Share Posted September 29, 2015 Yes, John became less of a tech journalist. Well, little technology left in Twit either. Every show could be squeezed into 5 minutes cuts where Leo reads headlines. The rest is meaningless talks between guests and usual Leo's comments about porn and flirts with ladies. Twit is dead.

G+_Uncle Joe (Uncle Joe Hi Posted September 30, 2015 Share Posted September 30, 2015 JCD was commenting on technology when most listeners were still hoping for a field trip down the vas deferens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_David Pick Posted September 30, 2015 Share Posted September 30, 2015 Glenn Hoeppner I read that to. John figured out with everyone else that Leo was just joking. John wanted to take the conversation private and I hope Leo has since done so. It is a private matter and we don't all have to know and see it resolve.

G+_David Pick Posted September 30, 2015 Share Posted September 30, 2015 amy green Agreed. It takes a special hatred to hate watch someone to show a crack in there facade. The video is obviously edited to make Leo appear the worst. Despite that, my question was answered,"Why was John banned?" The answer was he wasn't, but John has his own show and it is not about technology. John may some day return as a guest, but don't expect it anytime soon.

G+_David Peltz Posted September 30, 2015 Share Posted September 30, 2015 JCD is a crackpot who hasn't added anything of value to TWiT in ages. Good riddance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G+_Steven Wisniewski Posted September 30, 2015 Share Posted September 30, 2015 the No Agenda show was really good for the first 30 or so episodes then it turned into some ron paul erotic fan fiction, and aliens taking over hillary clinton. Absolute trash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_David Pick Posted September 30, 2015 Share Posted September 30, 2015 I understand not everybody has been a fan of John C. Dvorak? . But I try to show respect to him by not celebrating John no longer a guest host on TWIT possibly ever. Despite the effort of this YouTube video to make Leo appear a disrespectful person. I respect the wishes of Leo to make an technology show. Leo did not say John is not my friend and he did acknowledge John's show while addressing some angry people in the chat room that day. Whatever falling out Leo and John have had, let them resolve it privately. The fans on both sides just seem to make things worse every time Leo and John speak publicly about it.

G+_Uncle Joe (Uncle Joe Hi Posted September 30, 2015 Share Posted September 30, 2015 David Pick I would agree. However, they took it public, no? They're public people so public reaction is inevitable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Fr. Robert Ballecer, SJ Posted September 30, 2015 Share Posted September 30, 2015 David Pick -- Not writing this to attack you... but you understand that by posting THIS PARTICULAR video (from THAT YouTube channel) you're supporting the very people who have been attacking TWiT for more than 2 years? I understand that it might be the only place you could find it... but look at who own the channel... :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Dave Hart Posted September 30, 2015 Share Posted September 30, 2015 The approach at TWIT is to "show how the sausage is made". So sometimes we see tempers frayed & people who aren't on their best behavior. It's happened before, it will happen again, but it's a very minor side story to what TWIT & the rest of the network are about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_David Pick Posted September 30, 2015 Share Posted September 30, 2015 Fr. Robert Ballecer, SJ I thought of that after posting it. Perhaps and probably my fault if people who have viewed it as factual and will never view Leo again. Despite the hatred that was used to create it. It did manage to answer my question of why John was banned from TWIT. It was a mistake on my part to assume others would see the misleading edit of the live video. This same YouTube channel was the very same who posted the misleading and false video of Leo showing wang picks of himself on the tech guy show. I apologize for any harm I did to this community and will think more carefully before posting something like this again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Fr. Robert Ballecer, SJ Posted October 1, 2015 Share Posted October 1, 2015 David Pick No harm... it's just that our stalkers will always try to pass themselves off as "pundits" and their material is just... well... vile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Steve Adams Posted October 1, 2015 Share Posted October 1, 2015 Leo's judgement is sane & sound. I enjoy JCD & mostly know him via TWIT (I don't listen to TNAS) & I hope he gets himself back on the show. This video isn't "damning evidence" of anything bad, it's an open & informal explanation for the audience. You're allowed to not like it :) The attitude of those that attack him & TWIT is very odd. It shows they misunderstand their relationship with the business -we are the (potential) audience. Most media/presenters annoy me (all media, especially mainstream) so I don't watch them (it's easy to do that). If you don't enjoy/value TWIT take your attention elsewhere - it's OK :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Lee Donnahoo Posted October 1, 2015 Share Posted October 1, 2015 I wish Leo and Brian Brushwood could resolve their problems (OK, it's mostly Brian apologizing and making up for what he and Justin said). He was one of the best people to have on TWiT. Him and O-Doctor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_David Pick Posted October 1, 2015 Share Posted October 1, 2015 Lee Donnahoo Is my memory faulty? Wasn't Brian a guest host through Skype last year on TWIT? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Lee Donnahoo Posted October 1, 2015 Share Posted October 1, 2015 Yes, he was a frequent guest on TWiT and even had his own show for a while (Frame Rate) but earlier this year on another show (Night Attack) he said some things while drunk that were very offensive about Leo and his wife. I doubt Brian will be back on TWiT until he makes good with Leo, which will take some significant effort due to the nature of the comments.

G+_David Pick Posted October 2, 2015 Share Posted October 2, 2015 Lee Donnahoo I totally missed that. I'll give Brian credit for being professional enough to not repeat his offensive comments on his other shows. Probably puts into perspective what he said at the podcast awards this year. "In your face loosers" when he approached the podium after winning an award for night attack. Most thought it was funny as he obviously was drunk that night. Didn't know Leo ,Brian, and Justin had a falling out earlier this year. Better to know now then never. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
