@Justice Thanks so much for the positive feedback! It's great to know there are actually people enjoying the show. ;) Yeah, this podcast could almost be called the Hacker News Podcast in terms of it's content, although I wouldn't want to make PG angry by calling it that.

I love it. I love it. I love it. This is like the audio version of Hacker News. I listen to this while editing stuff that doesn’t require a lot of focus. I really like the fact that the other guy is from across the pond. I think he offers a slightly different perspective on things which is interesting. I also like the fact that you guys make no attempt to explain anything or sell anything. Just keep talking to each other about what you guys find interesting and exciting. Techzing should have a higher profile among HN people.

Hey, I enjoy the podcast. Good stuff, I hope you guys stay around for awhile. As far as getting downvoted at HN, yeah those comments are not in line with the culture at HN. You should probably just read several postings and see the kinds of comments that are expected. Pretty much the view is that you should not comment unless you are providing some kind of substantive insight or something witty, not just flippant throw-away sort of comments. It’s not really that kind of a discussion at HN. There is sort of an elitist air at HN but that’s what separates it from sites like Reddit or Digg. Anyway, look forward to seeing more from you guys.
