- aprigliano, on 10/12/2007, -3/+47Best. Cranky Geeks. Ever.
Hilarious. - jervana, on 10/12/2007, -1/+38He's cranky.
- saxjazman9, on 10/12/2007, -3/+21Davorak:
Get them on atleast once a month.... You'll double your viewership - Bartboy919, on 10/12/2007, -6/+23Look who's talking
- SiRwhilms, on 10/12/2007, -1/+16John worked surprisingly well with Kevin + Alex. They definitely added some fun to the show- Cranky Geeks is usually a pretty interesting show but the conversation tends to be very lacking in life/vitality.
- BlackCow, on 10/12/2007, -3/+18I wish my last name was Dvorak :-/ Or Qwerty :-P
- Chroder, on 10/12/2007, -1/+15I agree. I watch cranky geeks all the time, they cover some good topics. But today was pretty funny, Alex especially added a nice touch to the show. It looked as though John was getting a bit peeved, but that made it all the more funny.
- LeFrenzy, on 10/12/2007, -2/+14I just started watching and as he introduced Kevin Rose, he was drinking his Corona before looking at the camera...bahaha, this ought to be a good show...
- NeoCortex, on 10/12/2007, -1/+13I loved how when Dvorak introduced Kevin, it was mid-drink. It was just a perfect cut.
- billizm, on 10/12/2007, -0/+9I just bookmarked pornotube.com
- Dolomite, on 10/12/2007, -2/+10Oh man, these guys are great. I really do hope they get a late night talk show some day, they really deserve it and have a huge following to boot.
- FluxHarmonic, on 10/12/2007, -1/+9Does Dvorak remind anyone else of Bill O'reilly? Even a little?
- saxjazman9, on 10/12/2007, -2/+8heh, they need a tap + keg in the table... that'd be awesome.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -2/+7Kevin: Bamboo? I only use composite materials in my net handle. (the crowd furiously writes notes)
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6Alex carried the weight of that show, cause Kevin was stoned off his ass
- Josephtech, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6John and Sebastian seemed to get a bit annoyed when Alex and Kevin spoke. Im not sure there so used to being spoken over by two young guys. Whatever though it made a great interesting episode. Digg Nation Rocks!
- inferno10, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6Beer breath.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -2/+6since the link is down...

saw it before the digg article, but funny how they opened it with Kevin drinkin... rest of the episode was pretty boring with them just talkin mainly about Viacom vs. Google/Youtube.
I have to agree with John on that subject though... Google/Youtube will win or google won't index Viacom sites anymore.... least thats what i would do if i was google. - dolphumous, on 10/12/2007, -3/+7Dvorak is a dick.
I just realized that today. - tmillhouse, on 10/12/2007, -2/+6after watching that whole episode, I've realized that Alex talks alot. Kevin barely got a sentence out.
on a side note, that was a pretty nice show. - coldfusion055, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5He is kinda douche-like at points. Intelligent guy though.
- JeremyBanks, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4Close. It was Buisness Week, and it was that his share of Digg is worth an estimate 60 million.
- fermi, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4Whatsa matta? Don't like anyone making money from podcasting? Go get a life, whiner.
- fermi, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3I agree with you about Albrecht. He's good with Kevin, but all he has going for him is a rich daddy (have you noticed how often he talks about the old man on Diggnation?). Without Kevin, he's just another wannabe actor living in LA.
- michaelb1, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4I agree. Alex tends to bloviate.
and AGAIN with the Zune and how the iPhone will suck. Alex, give it a rest.
Admittedly, I am a Mac owner but come on. To deny the iPhone is cool just reveals ones hidden agenda.
It's like being shown a picture of the most beautiful woman in the world and saying "You just think she's hot because you're a big Women Fanboy. You've never even seen her in real life" - gregms, on 10/12/2007, -2/+5This was a great episode, worth watching. Very funny!!
- EBFoxbat, on 10/12/2007, -2/+5They should podcast more. Just shooting the ***** about current events. Their dynamic is hysterical... the first *and only* time I've ever spit coffee on my steering wheel because of spontaneous laughter.
- kuribo, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4What about all the people that watched the previous 54 episodes?
- apotropaic, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3I always wanted to check out Cranky Geeks... great time!
- macbookpromat, on 10/12/2007, -2/+4Why is it on the front page? Because it's a damn good episode of a show that normally is good but not as lively. If you think this is a non-event, that's your problem, but I haven't had this much fun watching Dvorak's show in a while.
[sarcasm]I don't see how enjoying this particular episode makes us fanboys, but if you say it, it must be true.[/sarcasm] - pathetik, on 10/12/2007, -3/+5Great Intro With our favorite Clownz
I'LL go grab a beer !!! - jagtar, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2And you didnt know that before?
- Brewin1100, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3I'm just not hip to this stuff anymore. I didn't see what's great about that show. Granted Alex and Kevin made it more interesting, but at the same time I thought they came off as kind of cavalier. "We're the credible, cool geeks. Look, we wear t-shirts 24/7 and drink beer during panel discussions." I dunno. Just my opinion, blasphemous as it is.
- Spo8, on 10/12/2007, -2/+4"They're really mowing down those beers before the show is even half over. I'm afraid I'll get burped on if I say something wrong."
As they finish their first beer...
Aaaand back to Diggnation. - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2In that case... Sell! Sell! Sell!
- keitarofujiwara, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Just like GoDaddy and CacheFly.
- nicarley, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3I completely agree. I thought that also while I was watching it, and was curious what other "Diggers" thought. I didn't want to sound like a fanboy, but hats off to this weeks episode.
- macbwizard, on 10/12/2007, -2/+4digg the episode here:
http://digg.com/podcasts/Cranky_Geeks - SneezyRobot, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3There were some moments that I'd agree with you. Ive only watched cranky geeks once before, and the only reason i sat through this one was it was a little more entertaining with Kevin and Alex on there.
Either way, I'm sure cranky geeks has its audience, but I'll stick with diggnation for entertainment and techcrunch(+various other blogs) for actual information.
Kudos to Kevin and Alex for showing that entrepreneurs aren't just all straight-faced (cranky) business analysts. - keitarofujiwara, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3That was so awesome. BEEEEER!
Kevin was but Alex kicked ass! Alex practically represented Diggnation on Crankygeeks so no harm done.
When you think about it, Dvorak is a smart dude and he's very informed because he is in the business longer than anyone else I know (read: he has tons of sources), so saying something stupid on Crankygeeks is just straight out stupid, 'cause Dvorak is a true crank and he WILL release ***** if necessary. I guess Kevin was being careful. - mtcool1988, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Diggnation is way better...
- keitarofujiwara, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1"Its true."
That statement is not entirely true, knowing Dvorak, and thats why got dug down. For the record I dug you up. - thatguyfromnj, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1I compare watching John to the first few times I drank a beer… it’s an acquired taste. He actually grows on you after a while. Yeah, he’s old, but he knows his *****.
Anyone notice the redesign? Whatcha think? - marianosf, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Dvorak "I don't need beer" "What's internet porn?"
old gay fart - b0b0, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1crankygeeks is a great show, but it tends to be a little boring whenever there isn't great chemistry between the panelists. It's true, most of the people on the show aren't really involved geeks, but they are very reputable industry analysts, and while diggnation may provide specific insight into a particular topic, crankygeeks gives a bigger picture of the technology industry. And given, Dvorak clearly thinks too much of himself and sometimes can lose himself to his "expertise," but everyone else makes fun of him for that. The better crankygeeks episodes usually feature a foil for Dvorak; the ones with Om Malik are awesome.
- OpenFuture, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Cranky Geeks is always hilarious and informative, keep up the good work guys!
- mtcool1988, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1follow up, That guy throwing those cards, makes me want to throw a brick at his face.... Just saying.. Ya know...
- artofwar420, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Subscribed.
- jakebarnes, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2I dugg you down both times... ass.
