G+_gregg nichols Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 I think I missed something... Why isn't Chad producing the show anymore? All I know is that I listened to an episode and they said it was his last one... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G+_Matt Maher Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 Oh, I wasn't aware of that. Cool! Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Marlon Thompson Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 Leo is going to be on less shows and as such their are a bunch of happening. Fr Robert is taking over BYB, Chad is moving around between producing and hosting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Dan Silvia Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 The whole network is going through a bit of a re-org so Leo can have two days off (he only has one now). So they're moving shows, and moving people to different shows to help out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Derek Duncan Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 pretty sure leo already had monday and friday off. Now, looking at the 2014 schedule, Leo is at the studio on Sunday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Saturday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Sharif Salih Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 In the inside twit thing they said two back to back days. Because who wants two days off that aren't contiguous? Definitely not me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Bradley Chasse Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 Why is Tom leaving the news? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Matt Maher Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 Because he moved to LA and Skype is a horrible service that just doesn't work well. I really wish they'd stop using it at TWiT, or that a better service would come along. I've never heard a clear reason why they don't use Hangouts...

G+_Marlon Thompson Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 Bradley Chasse Tom is leaving because his contract negotiation stalled. Leo wanted someone in house to head the news team rather than someone remote. It has nothing to do with Skype. The network is going to focus a lot more on breaking news rather than simply covering it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Matt Maher Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 Yeah, you're right, it doesn't have much to do with Skype. I was just irritated because I don't like the direction Leo is taking TWiT. No matter, I'll just go somewhere else for this stuff instead. However, I REALLY hate how bad the conversations on every TWiT show are, and it's mostly due to Skype and how it's completely incapable of full duplexing. People on most TWiT shows already have a tendency to talk over one another, and this Skype problem doesn't help. Sigh I've followed TWiT from the beginning. These recent changes, combined with many things which have bothered me for a while, are really turning me off of the network. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
