Leo Laporte, Patrick Norton, Kevin Rose, Robert Heron, David Prager, and John C. Dvorak

Episode 14 is now available.

Main feed - courtesy AOL Radio
BitTorrent - four flavors, no waiting

UPDATE: As of 7:45a Pacific the feed is live (as you can see from the Recent Episodes links in the upper left). iTunes should have the new show as soon as Apple deigns to update its list. Sorry about the delay - as soon as AOL gives us a way to post the show directly we'll get all the feeds up at the same time. Jeff says that will happen very soon. (And once again, a very hearty thanks to Jeff and AOL Radio. We'd be BitTorrent only if it weren't for them.)

Once again, my apologies for the wonky sound quality. We had everything all tweaked through the new mixer and the Firewire interface and I forgot to press the record button. Doh!

The Skype recording is pretty good, though - most of the noise is coming from my junky telephone interface.

I'd like to abandon Skype and phone interfaces all together. It's our plan to do TWiT with a live audience starting some time in September. We're looking for a bar or restaurant to host us somewhere in San Francisco or Marin. Got a place? Email leo@thisweekintech.com.
