Really love this podcast. The technology insight is always timely, very good variety and depth of topics covered. The audio producing really is professional, and it’s fun, yet grumpy. But it gets better.. The show notes are a huge help! For those of us that listen in a car ride, I always look back at the clear notes, and get links and details for some of the books, gadgets, or other software they mention. So guys, you always mention 1Password. What’s your favorite VPN?

If you are a Millenial you won't understand...
This is a great show about tech, security the Internet and life in general: I absolutely love it and I am always very keenly awaiting the weekly "drop."
The authors make fun of morons, fad-obsessed hipsters and the vast amount of human stupidity that now, thanks to the Internet, has found a way to express themselves.
Highly recommended; unless, that is, you are Millenial and have the 140-character, snapchat-addled attention-span of a drunk squirrel.

My Weekly Go-To For All Things Tech!
I truly enjoy listening to your podcast every week. Working as a sales engineer for a cyber-security company, you keep me updated with the latest topics that I can geek out with my prospects about! Keep it up-

Delightful and entertaining
Even though I don't always agree with the commentary offered by Brian and Jason, their observations are keen, and their discussions are frequently insightful and routinely hilarious. This is one of about three podcasts that I almost never miss--and I'm not just saying that because I sympathize with people like me (44 years old, living in the midwest, bounced back and forth between the midwest and the west coast). Rock on!

Great Listen - Well Worth the Time
While I don't always agree with their takes, I don't agree with myself all the time either. Great information and lots of fun! Even love the sponsorships if it keeps the podcast going.

Great podcast!
These guys rock, I really enjoy listening to this show. It's got a little bit of everything, and isn't boring (at least most of the time) and it makes my work days go by faster. I do have a question for them though; how do you feel about the 50k headphones from sennheiser?

Best podcast!
I love these guys! Their views and opinions are almost always the same as mine and even when they aren’t I still value what they have to say. They make my commute bearable.

Dedicated listener
If you're a Grumpy Old Geek that rides around in an autonomous Uber car that drops you off in the middle of the highway beacuse you were complaining about how totes crae crae ridic Word Press is, then this is the podcast for you! From kickstarter in the balls, moron of the week, to security hack of the week or at the library, you'll enjoy most of the things that Jason and Brian talk about on this podcast. I started listening to them in late February and have went from episode 1-109 in a few months while at work. I don't agree with all of their veiws on things, but hey, they don't agree with each other half the time either! So, for a good informative tech podcast, this is the best hands down. Just sayin'.

Dog love
One man who loves his dog. One man that doesn't. A tale of two friends and the adventures they face as they endure the strugles of daily life on the internet. You'll laugh, you'll cry, you will question all the life choices that led here...

If You Know What A Commodore 64 Is & Like Dogs, This Is The Show You Have Been Looking For!
Brian and Jason are a great team and balance each other out with their different perspectives! If you grew up during the 80’s and experienced the .Com Boom in the 90’s-2000’s you will connect with Brian “German Beer drinking Developer who has seen it all” And Jason “The sensitive dog loving Prius hater but in theory should love to drive a Prius".
They were at the beginning of the .COM boom and have a perspective that you won’t find on similar podcasts. If you love music, technology and Dogs, or Jason’s Dogs, you will really dig this show. They cover the latest technology trends this includes topics such as security, latest gadgets, pop culture, books and it’s there perspective and chemistry that make this show interesting.
If your in your 30’s 40’s you will connect, if your a Millennial, please, stop texting, swiping and liking and just listen to the complete show, you will dig it as well, I promise.
Yes, they are old, yes, they are grumpy, listen and you will be hooked!

This is a must subscribe,must listen,podcast. Brian and Jason are absolutely great and a pleasure to listen to. Their tech insight helps to cut through the clutter and give you the true “meat” of the issue at hand. The chapters do a great job of splitting the subject matter into logical chunks of relevant content. DO NOT PASS THIS ONE UP!

Worthwhile and relevant
These guys are a great source for tech news with a nonsense filter to give anyone from hardcore nerds to civilians useful entertaining information that's relevant to the world we live in today.. They've made plenty of predictions on the tech game and ways our society is heading due to all these new mediums that they've called pretty accurately.. Not to mention in an ocean of useless low quality podcasts this is one that's produced well and worth your time if you're alive in this real world today.

Great pCast
Informative and well rounded tech chatter. I would recommend it to any geek intellect that enjoys some twisted grumpy I/O.

Are you worthy of the Grumps?
Take this simple 5 question test. Give yourself 1 point for each 'yes'.
1) Are you interested in technology, sci-fi, music, or basically anything interesting?
2) Are you a geek, or grumpy?
3) Do you suspect that while surely there must be good in the world, "they" are probably out there.
4) Do you enjoy learning about new technology trends?
5) Did you already guess that YOU ARE NOT WORTHY, because the answer to all interweb machine questions are 'no'?
Score yourself:
0-2 points: You are likely running IE 5 on Windows 95. Please go back to playing Minesweeper.
3-4 points: There's hope for you yet. Subscribe now, before it's too late! !
5 points: Welcome, fellow Grump! (You're still not worthy.)

Yeah, yeah, okay...
My significant other is possibly the most loyal listener to this podcast. She told me about it, and it sounded like something I would absolutely not want to give up my time listening to. There’s just too many good podcasts out there. But because she’s super cool and hot, and I’m a dutiful boyfriend, I agreed. I listened to one. Then another. My duties were fulfilled. But then something happened… I found myself asking her if we can listen to another. Then another. And now I’m hooked, even supporting the show as a patreon, with or without her. Which you all should do, as well. Support this great podcast.
The guys are funny and smart, and find great “news items” to discuss and debate. If you have even a passing interest or connection to all things tech and Internet, this podcast will become a favorite.

Fantastic podcast
These guys are fantastic. Listening their rants and jokes about the absurdities of the world of tech is something I look forward to every week.

Modern life is rubbish
I think the title of that Blur album perfectly encapsulates why Brian and Jason are so grumpy. The pervasiveness of the internet in our lives today is both a blessing and a curse. This is an entertaining and informative listen about the frequent frustrations and occasional joys that we experience on a daily basis due to technology (and the people behind it). And I don't mind the cursing.
