Customer Reviews
Beezos?
I’m an active subscriber and care deeply about the topics this pod typically covers. However, if you have someone talking about tech and they keep saying “Jeff Beezos,” it’s hard to take anything else seriously.
Fluff
The more I listen to this, the gladder I am I did not subscribe to Puck. What a crop of wankers.
Love the Show; Endure Hanby’s mispronunciations
Really do love this podcast as part of my daily morning. I’m wishing Peter Hanby and an editor would sweep for his mispronunciations. I don’t listen while I’m eating or drinking anymore. It’s the worst when it’s in a repeatedly used ad, like “bought my wife some joo-La-ree” it’s like I never escaped NJ.
Meanwhile the content - even mispronounced - is stellar.
