G+_Greg Lewis Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 I love it when John C. Dvorak is on TWIT. With Jolie O'Dell it doesn't get any better. They apply common sense and critical thinking. Most of the guests on TWIT are talking heads who go along with everything in the tech publications. I know Leo Laporte struggles when they are both on. His reaction adds to the show. Thank you Leo for providing me hours of entertainment and information from the TWIT network. ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G+_Brenton Stringer Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 Whenever I hear the name "John C Dvorak" I hear it in Leo's voice. I've listened to too many podcasts on my way to/from work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G+_David Pick Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 TWIT is 9 years old now. I've listened to it since it was called "Revenge of the Screen Savers". Over the years I've seen it change from just an audio podcast to a live video streaming show. John Dvorak has been involved over the years since the beginning. To be honest, I remember John being allot crankier and aggressive on the show in the early years. John today is allot less aggressive and usually in a good mood when he guest appears. It was a little sad to see John not prepared at all when the show covered the changes to Google Maps. At least John learned he wasn't the only one who didn't understand the changes made to the interface on the PC version. Many of us who've followed the show from the beginning explain John Dvorak personality takes time to get use to. If John wants to believe in conspiracies, I say that's fine. I have never seen him waste allot of his time on TWIT talking about them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Lee Stoneman Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 Couldn't disagree more. During most episodes I spend the entire show tutting at John. The only time I ever find myself siding with him is when Jolie is on. She's the most annoying woman on the planet and almost everything she says is utter nonsense. ?

G+_bryant thompson Posted June 21, 2014 Share Posted June 21, 2014 John CD is awesome imho, one of tech tech elite, but lately he's been just burning TWiT episodes for some reason, he's almost hostile and with Leo's comment aftershow last week it might not get better but actual;ly get worse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_David Pick Posted June 21, 2014 Share Posted June 21, 2014 Hostile? Leo and John have been friends for thirty years. I really didn't see anything last week that would have affected their friendship. I've listened to John on TWIT for 9 years now. I remember John being allot more aggressive on the show 9 years ago compared to today. I don't know how obsolete the old episodes are compared to today. But they are available to download and I recommend them for you to try to compare the difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Joe Phelps Posted June 21, 2014 Share Posted June 21, 2014 David Pick I don't know what you mean by aggressive but Dvorak's rarely prepared to intelligently discuss the topics any more. He mainly plays the curmudgeon that thinks everything is dumb. His shtick is a lot more tiresome than it was in the past. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_David Pick Posted June 21, 2014 Share Posted June 21, 2014 Joe Phelps You have a point Joe. I was dissapointed with John last week in that he wasn't prepared at all for the discussion. He did appear a bit feable when trying to use Google Maps on a Mac laptop and they had to briefly stop the show to go over how to do it. But I mean he was more aggressive in the past in that he would interropt guest in the middle of their discussion with his views and would be downright hostile at times at his response. People are saying he's more hostile today. I'm just not seeing it. Especially his performance from last week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
