  • Lost its mojo…

    Listener questions never did it for me. And now they’re going paid sub only.

    Unsubscribed.

  • Wits that don’t quit

    In my opinion, The Rebound has the three fastest wittiest hosts in the podcasting world. The off the cuff jokes are the gifts that keep on giving even when they don’t stick the landing and… rebound.

  • Sometimes Apple, sometimes Tech, but always entertaining

    The three man crew have a certain synergy between them that can’t be explained… oh, except that they’re all former coworkers in a way… they’re entertaining and play off of each other well, or in horrific crashes that just make you want to listen to more. :-) I look forward to their common banter and answering questions, and they’re solidly in my podcast rotation.

    BTW, they have the real Lex Friedman. ;-)
