My all time favorite podcast! I wish they’d bring it back!

Why Loved this show

This show is awesome, but I really wish they would make new seasons!

Unfortunately for us listener/fans these entertaining hosts have moved on to other endeavors, but these episodes are still very relevant and worthwhile. I’ve listened to oodles of tech related podcasts, and “Why’d You Push That Button?” is my favorite for being the best combination of entertaining and informative. Ashley & Caitlyn’s humorous banter accompanies top quality journalism – asking great questions and hosting interesting guests. This podcast was excellently produced pre Covid and before the vomitous Culture War plague that seems to infect everything today; thus this podcast can be a welcome tonic to help one forget that other stuff for 30-40 minutes at a time. It’s been over 2 years since their last main sequence episode dropped, and I’m now listening my way through their entire catalog for a second time.

I wish I could, but I can’t. The vocal fry, upspeak, and ‘like’ in between the sentences just hurts my ears

I love this podcast so much! The conversation is the perfect combo of refreshing, hilarious and informative! Now more than ever we need a great tech podcast like this that is digestible, relatable and just completely awesome. Please make more episodes! What’s your take on zoom and tik tok, and an update on shopping on Instagram since the pandemic. You ladies rock🎧

UGH! This Podcast is Amazing. I LOVE it! Episode are editing to PERFECTION. everything about this Podcast I LOVE. I’m a HUGE fan! So So SO good!

I think this podcast is super dope. They go after interesting topics with dope perspectives. I will say I don’t agree with a lot of what they have to say but it’s refreshing that it doesn’t turn into a discrete partisan political podcast. Check this show out for a breath of fresh air.

Please more seasons. Please.

I really wish this show would come back! It’s what first got me into podcasts, and it had some interesting conversations on how we interact with technology.

Is this show ever coming back?

This is one of my favorite podcasts. Their absence is felt when there is gap between the seasons. It’s a light hearted tech show that talks about topics that most shows won’t cover and I find that really interesting. I love how it connects what is being generated with how the early adopters and frequent users actually use new products and services.

Weird

One of the hosts says “like” to death. And, it overall just has a middle school girl feel. Not my thing but there are scars who won’t mind and I hope they enjoy as the concept is great

The Verge / The Goods have lots of podcasts on their own about various topics, but if I could only pick one to listen to for the rest of my life, it'd be this one. The topics are admittedly slight, but that sort of builds into the charm of listening to Kaitlyn and Ashley go back-and-forth about their lives and how much cultural subtext can be built into a small piece of technology. It's way too much fun. Haters can have their TED talks, I'll be over here listening to podcast gold.

This podcast is Gucci.

I cannot help but hate this podcast. Every episode feels terribly long -- around 40 minutes, on just ONE topic. It contains so much redundant and meaningless gibberish that each episode just goes on and on for like forever and I have to turn it off after a few minutes. I can tell that the hosts obviously lack background in tech details and tech history, and as a result, they just avoid talking about them and instead discuss the most trivial, vague things plus their personal feelings about that topic, which almost makes me sick. If NPR were to do this podcast, they would make each episode 20 minutes and still cover as much information. TL;DR there is no beef in the podcast and you'd better spend your time elsewhere.

It’s really entertaining to see how the hosts can take a really mundane thing and talk about it for quite a lot of time. Also the interviews with people are just brilliant, you never can tell that a person next to you is putting so much thoughts into their emails

Smart Replies episode. “We are chatting with a linguist…” and and everything she says is smattered with like, like, like.

Honestly, their voices are so soothing that I don't even care what they're talking about, it's relaxing. For the most part, the topics have been interesting and relatable.

Love it since episode 1. I wish they could make more episodes per season.

Hi ladies, can you do an episode on why people push the same-day or one-day shipping button on amazon? Do these options make us more impulsive and impatient with other things outside of shopping? How do we feel when these options are not available outside of Amazon. Thank you! Mike

These airheads will give you the sensation of having a lobotomy.

anyone giving a one-star for the hosts' voices and speaking skills just hates women. it's a fun, conversational podcast, not an intense journalistic deep dive. and it's enjoyable!

Great podcast that makes me think about social media from a different perspective. It is well produced, the length of each episode is just right and the cold opens are actually insightful. Oh yeah, and Kaitlyn is covertly hysterical and super witty.

Egregious use of the word like. The opposite of journalism.

I’ve been hooked since episode 1, and they keep getting better.

I love these ladies and everything about this podcast. Such a fresh take on tech and tech in our lives!!

I’m sorry I wanted to like it since I like the topics discussed, but I can’t find anything of essence listening to this.

It's like having 60 minute discussion about smoke and completely ignoring the underlying fire... Sorry I literally had to stop my car and turn the podcast off and unsubscribe...

These people are so annoying to listen -replete with the new (asinine) lingo of the land, Valley-girl talk replete with “oh my gosh’s” and “like, like, like” ad infitum. Mind numbingly superficial with banal commentary on technology by people who are so heartachingly bereft of gravitas or analytical prowess.

I enjoy this and The Vergecast. I like the topics that are covered and the interviews also, it shows insight in to things I usually don't realize or think about. Keep it up

This podcast has potential, but most episodes come across as two grown women acting like teenager girls. Also the vocal fry is out of control.

I appreciate everything about this show and look forward to season 4!

I just came here to say how awful it is that I even have to hear the commercials for this show on the podcasts I enjoy listening to. If you find these valley girls talking about their tweets interesting and waste your time listening to it, I feel bad for you. That is all.

I’m pretty new here, but I really have enjoyed the episodes I have heard. It’s not necessarily what is advertised. More of a quippy discussion than an in depth tech explanation, but it is a fun podcast if you like a personal chat about the tech in our lives.

At first I really like this podcast, i thought the idea and topics were interesting but oh my god the longer it went on the dumber and dumber the hosts got. This has become an entry level app podcast focused on petty breakups and valley girl instagram addiction. I’d really like if they got new hosts...

So like I like listened to like the like episode of like the memes. Did I like it? Like yeah no. Mostly the attorney who came across as a valley girl, although a guy, with the word "like" being roughly 1/3rd of the words that like came like out of like his mouth. Podcasts comes off a a couple of valley girls trying to justify their decisions in their life.

I love this podcast. It's a fascinating series of topics. I always find myself coming away with something new to think about or something new that I've learned. I like how approachable and easy it is to listen to. It feels like a conversation with friends!

Just some girl talk

Love: - the interviews - the hosts - the topics Hate: - I binged it all - I don’t know what a thirst trap is - I asked my friends, family, coworkers what a thirst trap is - I needed to urban dictionary thirst trap - I needed to tell my friends, family, coworkers what a thirst trap is

Disrupting the Lasagna game

I've enjoyed previous seasons of this podcast. While I found many of the epsiodes trended towards a younger audience, I felt I got some "youth" understanding/perspective on some of the social media issues of the day. However this current season is vapid. The constant discussion of the snaps, grids, follows/ers, like, trendsetters, style makers, activations ... such meaningless first world nonsense. 'Like, OMG, ur Insta grid is way too orange. Orange was like, sooo last week. Blue is all the new hotness'. Hoping they return to more meaningful topics soon.

I love it all! So good. Editing is not too distracting since it’s centered around hosts’ conversation.

It does seem like they try to push their view too much, however the worst is listening to the uptalk and constant bombardment of the word “like”. Which makes the subject of Likes vs. Super Likes the worst subject to discuss, when they already use the word several times per sentence in lieu of pauses.

More podcasts need to take a listen to this one on how to execute a great show. Interesting topics, the interviews usually teach me something new, and the sound quality is perfect that I can listen to it with headphones without feeling annoyed.

I like don’t like like this podcast like *giggle* it just sounds like lol like Gossipy and like that they say like like too much ❤️

Fantastic podcast!

Awesome show Ashley and Kaitlyn are fantastic hosts of a fantastic show. Really interesting subjects and makes you think about some of the smaller decisions you make!

The show has some interesting topics, but Kaitlyn has some serious issues with the word "like", which is, like, incredibly annoying. If you're going to have a podcast, it just makes sense to make sure your hosts are well-spoken and can hold a thoughtful conversation without, like, just totally, like, ruining it by, like, saying "like", like, between every four words....
