Tech with Snark
I first started listening to GOG in my twenties. I just turned 40 now.. No regrets, 5 stars!
I love the podcast , I'm a new listener so listening to your backlog of episodes after hearing Dave is on here. I love both you guys , you get me through my job as I'm allowed to listen to my stuff whenever i want . İf I could afford it I would patreon you guys but one day lol 😂. From a younger in age but grumpy old(in soul) geek . I love the ending you guys have of stay grumpy it's bloody brilliant . With love from a British (Geordie) dude.

Pleasant find
Coincidentally, Apple Podcasts made me aware of this great show.

Love the podcasts humour and negativity!

Grumpy young geeks?
Even though the name is a misnomer from my point of view (I have a decade or so of computer work on them), I look forward to their weekly discussions about the enshitification of the Internet. And their book and movie/series likes often overlap with mine. This is the only podcast I listen to that I have an alert set for the instant it shows up in my feed.

Makes the Pain Worth It
I have been listening for 4 years now, and never once been disappointed by a show. One of my main workouts is ruck marching on Friday (sometimes Saturday) nights for a few miles, and I save this show for those, since it makes the schlep just a little less painful and way more entertaining. Being a recovered Goth, eternal Star Wars fanboi, and a current technologist, I rarely miss a beat with the insanely blunt and intelligent banter, nor ever find a single topic to which I can't relate. Even my millennial wife grudgingly enjoys when I have to skip a ruck and listen while on a family drive. Yes, I wait until the kids are asleep before mashing play. Please keep up the grump, and I'll keep up throwing cash at you.

OMG! Clouds?
Almost pissed myself over the discussion Dave triggered about clouds. Really loved how hard Brian laughed at Jason's WKRP in Cincinnati reference ("Do you ever really get into your hand"). My wife thought I had finally snapped because I was crying with laughter. You guys rule.

Absolutely entertaining and informative
These guys make me laugh and at the same time give great news update with a slight touch of sarcasm. Definitely people I’d like to have in a backyard BBQ. Thanks to them I now understand how clouds are formed! Thank you for solving life’s big mystery.

What a ride so far…
I started off in listening to the podcast Darknet Diaries, which is so awesome! Led to Jordan Harbringer’s FF and many great guest which finally led to GOG ( will hit up Dave’s dozen of furry podcasts next!). Seeing the connections and personal story from one to another kept me with GOG since November 23’ and still binging every single show, currently 9/20 episodes. I felt like I know them guys and all the transitions they gone through, I would love to have a beer with them someday. I can’t donate like Martin and I won’t complain about the ads, I do appreciate these guys for the techy knowledge! Sometimes the show notes doesn’t have any link, wonder if it’s because of some expiration reasons.

Been listening for a long time
The rates near the top of my List. Some politics I don’t agree with but I love these guys! Great listening.

Its Gud
They do gud.

The one and only
I’ve listened to a lot of podcasts through the years. Most of them have kept limited attention, bored me, or were in the wrong lane of traffic. Not this one. This is the only one I still listen to on a weekly basis. these guys are grounded with reality, have excellent taste in media, the best sense of humor, and they call it when they see it, whether good or bad. Not that I’m going to do it, but these guys are what made me want to start my own podcast, but alas, I lack the talent to keep up with these lads. As soon as I start my new job, I’ll be sending you some money. It’s well overdue for the years of laughs and finger flippage. Spot on, gentlemen.

Amazing
I started to listen to you a few years ago and have loved the show ever since. I recently listened to your first episode and still funny and informative but very different 😂 the quality have definitely improved. Keep on the great work.

My Review
Great pod. -Ken

Keep on Grumping
Hey Guys, I love your show. I look forward to listening to it every Saturday morning over breakfast. As someone who worked in IT for over four decades, I agree with your observation that nothing has changed in 11 years. It seems that every few years we have this exciting new technology or paradigm that’s “world-changing” that either turns out to be more technology snake oil, or is just another flavour of an idea that’s been around for decades. On your last episode, Jason was asking how to get old people to get and wear their hearing aids. As someone who has worn hearing aids for over a decade I understand. They can be a hassle. While they’re have been improvements in the last few years, such as the transition from disposable batteries (those were tiny and tough to swap when your dexterity is reduced) to lithium rechargeable batteries, they are higher maintenance than glasses. You have to remember to charge them, they require lots of cleaning (ear wax, yuck!) and the replacement parts like in-ear domes and receiver wax guards are a hassle. It was frustrating for me and I was in my 50’s - I can’t imagine dealing with them in my 70’s. Not to mention they are expensive - thousands of dollars for a good pair. My company benefits only covered about half the cost. And they don’t “correct” your hearing the same way that glasses correct your vision. They just compensate for the loss by blasting the higher frequency sounds into your ear. While I found it hard to get through the work day without them, once I retired I found myself wearing them less and less, and now only put them in if I’m going into a challenging environment with lots of background noise, like a shopping mall or sports arena. So maybe Apple is on to something. Anyway, keep up the great work!

you guys rock
Jeff from Arizona Department of Corrections. Love the show!

Jeff from Arizona Department of Corrections thinks that you guys are great! Almost free!

Look forward to this every weekend!
I love this show and find myself waiting eagerly for each new episode. I'm about the same age as these guys, with a previous IT career, and I identify with and appreciate the grumpiness factor. I look forward to getting the latest tech news delivered with a delicious mix of cynicism and humour. I regularly follow new book and movie/show leads. Keep up the good work, and thank you from Malaysia!

Dont Know where this is going - Yall keep it up
Unlike many TV shows and podcasts, this show just keeps going on with great quality. Usually after about 20 episodes or less a podcast becomes complete crap. Been listening for 7 years and still feels fresh. I won't stop listening until you guys do. Keep polluting the sound waves with this great podcast. - Sincerely a grumpy young geek. (p.s. im the zillenial from last year.)

You guys helped me significantly
I'm a huge tech buff and own a PC repair shop, I ended up in county jail for DUI stuff due to bad choices made and depression from my divorce. I was stuck for 30 days with zero entertainment. Our county jail offered tables with access to podcasts, and yours was on the "preferred" list. I've never imagined ide be the type to enjoy a podcast; until I listened to you guys. You guys got me through the most boring part of my life that I've ever been through. From now on I'll be a loyal listener, you guys voice the best topics and I'm telling everyone I know to follow your media. I wish I stumbled upon your cast a long time ago. Thanks fellow tech dudes.Im Looking forward to all future casts.

While Shredding
Getting rid of anything that might give crooks a leg up is an ongoing battle I don't look forward to. However, while shredding, listening to the GOG guys who masterfully shred the untruths and pass on the really skinny, I felt fortunate to have someone on the job ferreting out the hustlers. Added to that are their insights and entertainment reviews. So, a slight donation headed your way in thanks for all you do to keep my spirits up. ================================================ It's been 2 years now that Grumpy Old Geeks has been my go to for making housework less of a chore. It was sad when you guys went to once a week although understandable. Cleaning days are twice a week and you had me covered. It was a hard decision wether to listen to you while cleaning upstairs or wait till later in the week when I did the downstairs. However, the upstairs won as I was less likely to be bothered by my child husband. I always learn something new, often something bizarre, sometimes discover something to add to my shopping list and am thoroughly entertained by the banter between the two of you. The inclusion of Dave B., for security segments (mostly 😉) is truly a delightful experience after one manages to get over all the unnerving information. It's a bit like a Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde performance. One never knows where those conversations might go. Grumpy Old Geeks is honest, insightful, irreverent and revealing ... it's something to look forward to once a week. Thanks!

How I envision you guys in my head
I love this Podcast and just made my first donation through Stripe. I have no idea what you guys look like, but your personalities forged facial images in my head very early on. Through 250 episodes (I had to start at Episode 1), I visualize you guys as the American Pickers. Brian is Mike Wolfe and Jason is Frank Fritz. The similarities are uncanny, right down to Mike being a family man and Jason being a passionate pet owner. I don’t know if the next 250+ episodes will do anything to change my perspective, but I can’t wait to find out.

Funny as fuck!
I love the humor and the cynicism of the show! Keep up the great work! Also I'm digging the Star Wars Talk!

My meager payment and indignant review, so smile-UPDATED, AGAIN!
DO NOT READ AT THE END OF SHOW--EDITED Would have rated the show at six stars, less one star as I had to leave a snarky remark/comment. I considered a MeatSpace score of 4.755 (Picard) for the show. Guess I will just have to go to the website, what is the address again? Knowing you're both Sci-Fi buffs/fanbois, I am older than both of you (not additively) as I predate your cultural lineage by way of Lost in Space and enjoy the frequent tributes to the subject. Sorry I couldn't feed the collective kitty as I am now obscurely retired in a remote desert location and low on rocket fuel. Correction, I will be on the financial mend soon and plan to dump some dosh in your direction. Next month, November, will be my first out of pocket drop to you guys. // AI Snarky ON Old codgers have remained true to their charter, as well as FORTRAN, stay grumpy! Hey kid, get off my submodules and punch cards or I will mess your 600 BPI tapes with mighty magnets. All your single-sided hard sectored 8 inches floppy disks belong to me. // AI Snarky OFF

So close to 6 stars
Would have given 6 stars, but when I paid money on patreon, then added the ad free link to Apple Podcasts I couldn’t tell the ad free version from the peasant version. So I had to delete both and re-add only the ad free version. Beyond that incident, that is obviously not my fault, the show is banging and you should be listening to it. Brian and Jason for president 2024. Make America grumpy again.

An enjoyable way to start my Sunday
A couple of cynical & jaded grumpy old buggers, and Dave, who enjoy generally take the piss out of almost everything. I love the general show banter and the continued mockery of everything that is Crypto, NFT's, and so called AI. Keep it up guys and here's to another exciting week in tech 🤣

Great Grumping
I really enjoy the hosts and their content. I’m about the same age as these two and my career trajectory somewhat follows theirs. I look forward to each Friday and a new show.

Gits is right!
The podcast is great! Seriously! But why don't Jason and Brian allow my old review to be listed on their website? GITS!
