G+_Doug Blunt Posted January 1, 2013 Share Posted January 1, 2013 Just curious how come Chris Pirillo has never appeared on TWIT. I would think he could be a great guest on TWIT or Triangulation sometime. I get tired of seeing the same old faces all the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Stephen Styffe Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 Doug Blunt Leo has said that he has never had an interest in having Chris Pirillo on any TWiT show. I think it has something to do with the fact that he is not a real journalist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_A T (Amasia) Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 they have had plenty of not "real journalist" on TWiT. But I wouldn't be interested in seeing him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Matt Lyons Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 If that's true it's a really stupid reason. He's an entertaining guy who does a LOT with technology every day. Sounds like a cop-out for another reason if it's true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_A T (Amasia) Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 I don't remember right off hand wasn't there an issue between them or something? Not sure if I am remembering something right or not? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G+_Stephen Styffe Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 Matt Lyons I really don't like Chris Pirillo's style, so I'm glad Leo doesn't have an interest in having him on a show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G+_Ryan Sinclair Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 There's a transcript of TWiT ( http://wiki.twit.tv/wiki/TWiT_222/Transcript) where Becky Worley, Leo, and John C Dvorak were talking about Pirillo being a kinda "shameless" promoter (I'm paraphrasing). Leo also mentioned that he didn't have Becky on for a while because she worked for ABC, who they covered. Who knows, all boils down to speculation I guess, but maybe there's a conflict of interest or something. ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Doug Blunt Posted January 2, 2013 Author Share Posted January 2, 2013 I remember that comment. Dvorak says a lot of stuff that makes no sense but I still like him. I would like to see some fresh blood on some of these shows. Becky works and is more popular that Chris is so I'm sure her time is limited especially raising a family. As a matter of fact, I don't think Chris has even been on Tech News Today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Kuroryusan Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 Leo hates pretty much anyone that wasn't part of his group on tech tv. He is still bitter about what went on. I don't know why. He is doing quite well without them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Tony A Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 Who cares who's on as long as he doesn't let JCD go! I bet if you started your own podcast you'd have who you want to have on too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Dave Bach Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 Chris would be a better fit for TWiDC if the TWiT network had such a show. I guess TWiL would be the closest thing they have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Colin Willson Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 Jason Wright Wow, I just started listening to this and it feels like this was from before I was born. Yet it was only 5 years ago. Times have really changed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G+_Adam Deslauriers Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 He's not really that knowledgeable about tech stuff. I guess he's tech savvy but not a professional by any means. I've never liked his videos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
