Want news on technology with and interesting discussion to go along with it? Tom Merritt is the man you want! Great team and a great podcast!

The first 15 mins of the podcast is just ads. Can you just raise your ad price or something bc it’s obviously too low if you guys have this many ads. I like the podcast though, I just can’t listen to it when I’m not able to skip like when I’m washing dishes or working out bc it would be unbearable

This has been my go-to podcast during my commute! Thanks for all you do!

Tom and crew are exceptionally talented and those around him truly are awesome individuals and contributors. The community is awesome and welcoming and Tom is not only a wealth of tech knowledge but is a fair and balanced news reporter in the same breath. Love it 🤙🏼

Feels like the show is more commercials than content.

I wish the show would focus on more technical and newsworthy stories. Lately it's been just 100% AI all the time, and just like NFTs, none of these stories are impactful in the long run. What also bugs me is that the hosts can often have rather contrarian opinions that don’t exactly reflect what’s out there (especially when it comes to Twitter).

I listen to this show every morning, and it just seems to have gone from an ad or two at the beginning and end to being relentless. In the beginning of episode 4866 I clocked almost 4 minutes. When I am jumping into my car and tuning in to listen, the last thing I wanna have to do is try to skip through ads to get to the content while I am driving. Statistic for those interested: ~27% of the of episode 4866 was ads.

Been following Tom for decades now, and of all the shows I listen to, this is always #1 on my priority list to catch up on.

They just added more ads. This show has more than any other podcast I listen to. And it’s not even a news show in my opinion just an editorialized news aggregator.

While there are tons of voices in the tech space now, I keep coming back to DTNS. They are willing to cover a wide variety of topics, with a number of interesting guests that bring perspectives that are a step ahead of a lot of social media and tech reporting. Highly recommend, and it's the first I recommend to friends!

Tom Merritt, Sarah Lane, and Roger Chang round up truly meaningful tech news and events on a daily basis. Balanced presentation and intelligent discussion for leading topics. Guests join on a regular basis to enhance the discussions. There is no better podcast to get your news in a way you can fully understand it.

Get all the best news in just 30 minutes. Great hosts and the greatest content.

I’ve been listening to the Daily Tech News Show for the past ten years, and it has become an indispensable part of my daily morning commute. As someone who likes to stay current on tech news, I can confidently say this is the best and most consistent podcast available. The show’s format, featuring daily guest hosts like Scott Johnson, Justin Robert Young, and others, keeps the content fresh and engaging. The in-depth analysis and timely updates on the latest tech developments are second to none. The host’s expertise and the variety of perspectives make every episode informative and entertaining. This podcast truly sets the standard for tech news coverage, earning a well-deserved five stars from me.

I love the show. The hosts are the great. Its a good podcast covering today’s tech news. I do feel the hosts spend too much time talking about subjects are semi-related or even unrelated to the topic they are discussing. I would love if they had their topics ordered and a time limit set for each topic to help keep them moving and the show more concise. (Something similar to ESPN’s PTI).

Having your female host opine at length about how “Kmart-alternative” Walmart is changing so much after she admits to never having been inside one ever got real cringe real fast. Tone felt out of touch and elitist. Either do your research or don’t filibuster about stuff you don’t know about.

I’ve said this before, but DTNS continues to deliver every day, and I never miss an episode. AND I support DTNS on Patreon because it is obvious that the bonus content for patrons is worth it as well. I’ve yet to find another show that respects my time and insists on journalistic integrity as well as Tom, Sarah, Roger and the regular contributors and guests.

I love Daily Tech News Show. In only a half hour, I can get caught up with the tech news I need to know. I so appreciate the fact they value my time and keep it concise. And as a patron, I have the option of extending to GDI, if I have the time and interest to go a little deeper into some of the stories and/or join the crew for some light hearted banter. Definitely worth a listen!

Tom and Sarah are seasoned techs that have followed the IT industry for many years. Their experience show in this entertaining tech podcast. One of the best tech podcasts out there.

Their intro advertisement for the other podcast they have with a historic demo just sounds horrible. Whenever it comes up in my feed it makes me cringe. Anyone who is concerned for how their show’s tone sounds should have gotten rid of it a long time ago!

A great way to spend an hour of your day and stay informed on all of the latest goings on in Tech. Fun and Informative

This show is the gold standard in tech news, conversation and analysis. Tom, Sarah, Roger, Molly and everyone on the team are veterans of tech journalism since long before even podcasting. I’ve been listening for many, many years and they are still killin’ it every day. Subscribe and enjoy.

That is all

I hadn't listened to your show in a while until the other day when I heard Megan on and now I have re-followed your podcast and hope to hear a lot more from her. She's always been one of my favorite writers and I think she does an amazing job. I hope you guys will keep her as a permanent guest along with Sarah. They make an awesome team!! 😁

Love Tom's, Sarah's and everyone's perspective on the show. Great show. Thank you!

Great tech news everyday if the week. They keep it to 30 minutes to make it manageable. They also don’t chase headlines when nothings happening. I’ve been listening for 5 years and I still love to hear them every day

I stopped listening early 2022 after being bored to death by rambling analysis. It seemed Tom stopped moderating the conversations to keep the podcast moving forward. I’m trying to listen again beginning Aug 17, 2022. Still a bit of rambling on topics. Audio was dreadful and unlistenable on recent journalism episode. Seemed purposely dreadful since audio is always good. I’m not going to be able to listen anymore.

To Tom and the gang: Please stick to Tech news of the day. The inclusion of this BobaTech episode has resulted in quick deletion of the episode, and a change of DTNS rating from 5 stars to 3. Yes we know everyone needs a vacation week, but please do not experiment on your listeners?

Tom, Sara, Roger, guests and crew bring a daily dose of tech news which affect our lives in so many ways. They leave me smarter, more informed and entertained. Tom’s satirical comments are as good as his puns.

Used to like this show. Recent changes to format and addition of speakers with little to no talent forced me to change my review. Merrit wants people to think he produces a professional podcast when it’s only a home for his friends. Content has slipped, talent is nearly non existent. This show will be gone soon.

Tom in CA

Give you the information you need to know.

This is definitely not a show for anyone who keeps up on tech or current events. The hosts have discussions on the same level as a bunch of old men sitting in Cracker Barrel and “solving the world’s problems” over coffee. There’s so many better and smarter tech podcasts than this one.

I guess we need tech news to remind us that black people have to stay segregated in order to get attention, sympathy, and special accolades. Special episodes, special segments, special experimental shows to signal to others that DTNS is not racist. Sick of this. The more you make the color of someone’s skin part of a title or of a theme, and try to pass it off as “recognition “, the more bricks you add to the segregation wall that keeps us separate as people. Can we just have tech news without the woke sauce?

DTNS is one of my favorite podcasts. Its informative and the hosts are great. I miss TechTV and was so excited when I found this show. Tom, Sarah and Roger are a blast to listen to. If you enjoy their banter, also check out Good Day Internet pre/post show (available through Patreon), its a lot of fun.

I really would love if business and policy analysis on the show was a little more thought out. Or maybe it’s just that every episode includes analysis that includes “government should regulate tech more.” There’s a lot of off-the-cuff judgments on global tech politics that are just cringey, and call for innovation-killing regulation that, if it did exist, would kill tech and put DTNS out of the job. The topics they cover and headlines are very helpful and, for a long time, this was really the only tech-centric news podcast in the game. Cleary smart people with great experience in tech but guys - if you’re going to make commentary on global tech politics, think it through first.

There does not appear to be way of contacting Tom Merritt and Sarah Lane to provide feedback. No email address, Instagram and FaceBook have almost no posts, same with Twitter. They mention Reddit but doesn’t seem to be anything there also.

I listened to podcasts over 15 years. I listened to Tom on BuzzoutLoud. Loved it. I paid a little on patreon to this show before commercials we’re sneaked in. Cancelled subscription for 4 years. I Gave it another try. Today’s shows are hurried and cut short. Right before something of substance is said the host move on. In other cases commentary is cliche, mediocre and cookie cut. It is like calling on a sleeping high school sophomore and asking about Shakespeare ,” ya he did a lot , he will be missed “. The voicing is over produced pitch. Say it differently or of some concern if bad. Every story sounds like shamwow pitch, “easy-peezy-japaneezy”. It is a little jarring and disconcerting to hear low empathy. Shows some Molly Wood outrage or rant. I appreciate a Good segue but I wouldn’t mind if dropped for a sense of decency. I wish Tom read criticisms on air and make up for it. It is not all good. Redoing, Cutting and splicing a take is maybe necessary. One take Tom is not a goal. The potential was there but sadly streamlined out. I currently listen to futility closet. It has everything this show has lapsed on. Give it a listen. Every story has good closure. Feedback from audience is appreciated even if not a big time patreon.

DTNS is the place I go for my daily fix of Tech news. Hosts Tom Merritt and Sarah Lane give me what I need to know at a level that informs without being condescending all in a half hour. Their guests bring in other perspectives to round out the balanced discussion. Just great!

Great show, quick and concise. Very focused on tech news. It’s worth contributing to the Patreon to get the video feed (no ads!) or the longer chat that bookends the show in your podcast app. However, sound quality is very uneven, presenter volume is unpredictable (sometimes Tom or others are inaudible while others are loud & ads are a completely different volume.)

Tom, Sarah, Roger, and others do an incredible sifting through all Tech news of the day and discussing the important parts. Listening to their show is always a highlight of my day! Continues to my overall best podcast

I love the work Tom Merritt does and follow him wherever he does tech news, so I’ve been keeping up with him since his Buzz Out Loud days on CNET. His co-host, Sarah Lane and the excellent line-up of authoritative guests make this a must listen. This is also an independent podcast, so if you’re willing, you can support them on Patreon for an ad-free podcast feed among other benefits.

It is not daily

Tom Merritt and company are no doubt the best daily tech news team in media, bar none.

This a one of the podcasts I listen to. However this is the one podcast I keep up to date on. This a great tech news podcasts. Tom and Sarah have great chemistry as do all of the guests. This is a joy to listen to. It does not get too bogged down with technical info. They put the stories into a good perspective that people can understand. If I could only listen to one podcast, this would be the one.

I've been a listener of the show since the beginning and it is a great source of unbiased and well curated tech news.

I’ve been listening to Tom and his various colleagues since the very first of the Buzz Out Loud days. Through TNT and now DTNS, his extremely well-balanced tech news coverage and commentary can’t be beat. If you need a daily dose of tech news and a great way to keep up with what’s going on in the world of technology you should definitely subscribe to DTNS.

It’s the daily tech news show except for Saturdays , Sundays and US holidays. 5 stars!

Navigating the ever-changing world of technology can often be a harrowing job. Swimming the rivers of information, trying to stay abreast of today’s topics can often Rock You Like a Hurricane. Leave that work to the pros at DTNS. Tom, Sarah, Roger, and featured guests, there’s truly No One Like You. So hop aboard and surf the tide of tech, safe in the knowledge that they’ve got you covered, front to back. It’s just their nature! #ribbit

I have been listening to Tom since CNET days. This continues as the best podcast on technology I spent 27 years working in a large software and hardware company, almost always you are right on. Unfortunately my job would not allow me to write in an participate in the discussion. Great job to the whole crew.

I listen to this and Tech Meme ride home every single afternoon without fail. This is for daily what Twit is for weekly. If you want want trustworthy, informative, and entertaining news on the regular- then this is the podcast for you. I love the format of having Tom and Sarah plus a guest each day. Good stuff.
