G+_Matt Lyons Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 That was such a painful episode to listen to, every step of the way. Listening to Roger be extremely pretentious while claiming that Bioshock: Infinite was pretentious (while ignoring what the story was actually about) was icing on the awkward cake. I like everyone on that particular episode on their own but put together it was just... weird. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Greg Dorsainville Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 It was a complete disaster. As great as last weeks was, this episode was awful. Dvorak is not good radio. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G+_Remington O'Dell Posted April 16, 2013 Share Posted April 16, 2013 Dvorak seems like a nice enough guy but I can't stand listening to him spout his stupid conspiracy theories every time he is on Twit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Tim Allen Posted April 16, 2013 Share Posted April 16, 2013 Remington O'Dell - Do you still them call conspiracy theories when they tend to come true? Leo seems to be loosing his verbal filter an awful lot lately. The way he talks about women is often bad enough, but I was blown away when he used the N word last night. I felt really bad for Lamarr, to me he just looked like he wanted the whole thing over with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Matt Lyons Posted April 16, 2013 Author Share Posted April 16, 2013 I actually thought Lamarr was looser after that happened. That first half-hour was the worst, though. I think he's just too sane to be on a panel with Dvorak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Greg Dorsainville Posted April 16, 2013 Share Posted April 16, 2013 why did dvorak jump down his throat when he asked a perfectly valid question at the start of the show? it was so strange. and then leo mad the exact same point that lamarr was trying to make when dvorak was pressing him. it was really strange.

G+_Pete Marus Posted April 16, 2013 Share Posted April 16, 2013 I getting tired of Leos condescending attitude to Dvorak, and how Leo is trying to sound like a really hacky type of a shock jock lately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Greg Dorsainville Posted April 16, 2013 Share Posted April 16, 2013 there has to be a contrarian voice in tech that is not as annoying as dvorak. please , twit, find that person. or make a robot of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Aldo Merino Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 Dvorak's conspiracy theories are part of his schtick. Arguably, everything he does on TWIT -- being contrarian simply to be contrarian, the conspiracy theories, the self promotion -- is one big schtick. Which would be fine, save that he tends to commandeer the airtime and that the ruse has become predictable and, to me, tiresome. Brushwood's a better, more substantive counterweight; he just lacks some of the institutional knowledge Dvorak has. But Dvorak revels in the negative attention (all attention really), he's an old friend of Leo's, and he'll never Calacanis himself off the program. As noted, I'm sure he's a fine guy in person. But as far as the consumer bit of it goes, c'est la vie, friends. Roger was fine. A bit of a saving grace at moments, really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_John Bates Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 I like Dvorak's schtick taken with a grain of salt. A lot of the people on the show, but not all are there for the exposure, both they themselves and the show benefit. What I am getting tired of is the mention of politics and political agendas that from time to time seems to be creeping into the show. I wish they would edit these out of the podcasts not being streamed live. It may be my imagination, but they seem to be increasing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
