    Interesting
    He sounds like a kid, but that’s okay. I’m sure he still Knows what he’s talking about maybe. Would be cool if he talked about sports.
  • chickenlover11111
    great podcast
    This guy cracks me up. Would you be able to do a podcast on transportation technology. I just saw something on a new hyperloop thing.
  • 2bDanish
    Yay!
    Love this! ...Very helpful!
  • SoftwareMom
    For novice and expert
    Quick and helpful! I work in software, and the kids and I have learned food practical info from the short, efficient shows.
  • Podcast_Listener_28
    Good advice
    Love the podcast. I found useful the advice that Amazon prime for $99 would replace my Spotify membership, besides its other benefits. Thanks!
  • monkeypandapants
    Fun
    Informational and easy to navigate all computer issues with this podcast.
  • jayw900
    Not bad
    While the tips are useful, the advertisements i find to be destracting. The shows are around 5-7 minutes long which by itself isn't a problem but the 2 minutes of sponsor ads are to me. I decided to pass on this after listening to a few shows. The format may work for some but not me.
  • anthony12275
    Good Podcast but….
    Its a very informative podcast. The problem is there is always advertising during it. I feel like half the time is spent listening to ads...
  • Izorian
    Short but Informative!
    This podcast is a great way to learn useful tips and tricks about technology. I have definitely followed suit after several episodes, such as backing up more consistently, using the cloud more effectively, and building my tech-backpack to help my technology-challenged friends and family. This podcast is one of the most informative ones on iTunes and its length makes it valuable for every person who listens to podcasts to add this one to their list of podcasts.
  • Esspy
    Great Podcast
    Awesome, useful tips in less than 10 minutes! Cuts through all the clutter for those if us who love Tech but don't have the time to keep up with everything.
  • Tech Grad
    The Best!!!
    I listen to this podcast regularly. It is so valuable and time well spent!
  • Criscoula
    Great Podcast!
    I'm a techie and have gotten a lot of helpful tips from your Podcasts. Thanks!
  • Big Dawg RC
    Great for non tech people
    The host does a good job of explaining current and new technology and offers tips that even non tech people can understand. If you are just introducing your grandma to computers and related technology, have her listen to this podcast.
  • Alex Boti
    Love it
    Great stuff and knowledge. Keep up the good work
  • janeffery
    Stereo audio problems
    Content is great. But when I listen on headphones, the audio in the left earphone comes on an off. It is something I noticed with all the Quick and Dirty Tips podcasts I listen to - Get-Fit-Guy, The Public Speaker, and Get-It-Done Guy.
  • Uffern
    His Bias is overwhelming
    His bias is very overwhelming. He says he uses macs, and often recommends Apple products with broad generalizations that it is better that any PC could ever be. I gave up listening because of it.
  • Jhoop0593
    Great podcast
    This podcast is awesome! Would love to listen to more. Great great job!!!
  • Jimmy559
    Just started!
    I just listened to the podcast on iPhone apps! These new apps are great!
  • WendyWigh
    Love it!
    As a non techy this podcast answers so much!
  • Visionbringer10
    Great topics!
    I love the topics this guy has! Extremely helpful and interesting!
  • Fugativedmk
    Useful beyond belief!!!

    Great podcast
    I'm a new listener but i love how simple this podcast is!

    Very helpful!
    Very detailed and informative. I didn't know how much battery was being used when I wasn't even touching my phone. Thanks!
  • Lynette Escobar
    Great podcast!
    This podcast is great. I don't understand a lot about technology but this podcast has helped to clear up a lot of what I hear in the news and from my kids!
  • Hunter372619273

    I like that these podcasts are short and to the point. I wish though you would have one about tablets!
  • Matt3561
    Awesome podcast!!!
    I love how simple technology seems after listening to this podcast!
  • Complicated M
    Extremely helpful!
    Fills in the gaps of stuff I didn't know!
  • Suzecruz
    Highly Recommended!
    This podcast is great. Sometimes I think that they've talked about all there is to talk about tech-wise but then the Tech Talker approaches another topic and it is totally applicable. Thanks for breaking down the elusive Cloud and finally getting me to use it. It has proved itself worth it many times. Keep 'em coming!
  • Pegilyn
    Awesome!
    So helpful! I'm technologically handicapped and this podcast has been so helpful to me! Puts things in language that I can understand!!! Keep up the great work. It's one of the podcasts that I look forward to hearing what it's about each time!
  • Robina707
    Love this
    This podcast is so helpful and incredibly well down. Podcasts are to the point with a great sense of humor thrown in! Themes are relevant and answer common questions us not-so-techy people often wonder about!
  • Nikonwil
    Easy to follow and understand

  • D_Oldman
    Change IP Address
    Why not mention that you can change your IP address? Most Internet providers dynamically assign the IP when you log in and your computer uses that no. Repeatedly. If you occasionally turn off your modem and wait a while your random no can be picked up by someone else giving you a new one.
  • Dr BUG
    Best Apps
    Don't start this podcast using earphones. Sound is so loud you will experience hearing damage. Will report back after my ENT visit.
  • Too Cowgirly
    Tech talker

  • Bigb2252002
    Great tips!!
    Wow. You are awesome. Loved the quick tips on how to protect the life of your computer and your top 5 apps! Quick and informational and all in under 5 minutes! Thanks so much. I knew a little about the rice fix but you explained it so well!! I will especially recommend your podcast to friends that are newbies! Great job
  • Chaudalyn
    This is just from listening to the sample!
    I recognize the design and format style from Nutrition Diva's podcast. The intro music wakes me up and pay attention to what's being said without becoming Background music. Overall a really great series!
  • MaryB1961
    Lots of useful info!
    Even the newest computer user can understand the tips provided in the podcast, clear, concise and to the point! Thanks Tech talker...
