Radio Leo (Audio)

Matt Levine chats with Leo Laporte, a podcasting legend and founder of TWiT.tv, an Internet podcast network focusing on technology. They discuss the early days of podcasting, how tech media has shifted, and what it takes to stay relevant when trends change overnight. Learn how to grow a podcast that lasts, why niche matters more than ever, and what most creators get wrong about discovery and audience loyalty. Leo starts by explaining how he became tech radio's go-to guy. He loved being on-air, but didn't love the topics people expected from talk radio. So he carved out a space that let him dive into something he genuinely cared about—technology. Why Leo started a podcast network in 2005—before most people even knew what a podcast was. Leo explains what it was like being one of the first 10 podcasters in the world. Leo on the most important aspect of podcasting: “You need to know your audience. The more general a show is, the more difficult it is to promote it.” Leo explains just how easy it is to start a podcast today. All you need is a laptop and a mic. Unfortunately, this simplicity is both a blessing and a curse. Leo says the barrier to entry has never been lower. But that also means the space is noisy, crowded, and competitive. Starting is easy; being found is the real challenge. Leo highlights why discoverability—not content—is what kills most podcasts today. Even the best ideas can get buried if no one knows you exist. Matt asks if discoverability can be fixed—and Leo says yes. However, it's not about better SEO or thumbnails. It's about being on platforms that are built to make things go viral like TikTok, Instagram, YouTube. Leo shares how they post twice daily on all platforms and why short clips are key to long-term growth. You can't always track what's working, but you can see when momentum starts to build. Why the top 20 podcasts dominate half the ad revenue, and what that imbalance means for everyone else. If you're not already at the top, you're fighting over scraps. That's why niche, loyalty, and consistency matter for the smaller podcasters. Leo shares what COVID taught him about brand courage. The companies that kept showing up grew. Meanwhile, brands that pulled back lost their visibility and trust. Understand how podcast advertising has shifted away from consumer brands to niche B2B partners. Matt and Leo unpack why going niche is the smartest move a creator can make right now. Broad topics make it harder to build connection and loyalty. When you know exactly who you're talking to, they know exactly why they should listen. Specificity is your superpower. Leo explains why remote work weakens small teams in ways people often underestimate. Matt shares how remote teams can work—but it takes unnatural amounts of structure and intention. You can't just hope the culture will carry itself. You have to manufacture connections on purpose. Otherwise, people drift—even when they're online every day. Leo shares why AI isn't a threat to content creators, it's a tool to be used with intention. He's not worried about being replaced. He's more focused on how to integrate AI in ways that save time and amplify creativity. Leo's take on AI in podcasting, especially when it comes to editing and marketing. There are tools now that can help you clip, caption, and distribute without a huge team. The trick is knowing what job you're trying to solve. Not every tool fits every creator. Leo breaks down how the YouTube algorithm is shifting—and why short-form content is the next big opportunity. With TikTok facing pressure, YouTube is positioning Shorts as its successor. That means if you're a podcaster, creating short clips is a must. Why Leo believes chasing trends is a waste of energy—and what to do instead. If you stay true to what excites you, the trends eventually circle back. People can feel when something's authentic, and when that happens, attention follows. Leo on the future of podcasting—it won't be just audio anymore. Video, community, and personality are what people crave. For example, YouTube is where people are going right now. If you're not on it, you're missing where the next generation already is.

Microsoft's latest round of layoffs hits Xbox Gaming hard as the company cuts approximately 9,000 jobs despite record profits. This week, Paul Thurrott and Richard Campbell discuss the impact of these layoffs, Windows 11's new version naming, Microsoft Copilot coming to Mac, and dive deep into passkey security. LAYOFFS As expected, Microsoft began a massive round of layoffs across Xbox/Microsoft Gaming on Wednesday. The fiscal year started on Tuesday. These were originally going to happen a week or two earlier. 9,000 employees impacted across Microsoft - about 4 percent of workforce, Xbox/MSGaming was NOT hit hardest, Microsoft now says (on top of 6,000 in May). 10 percent of King being laid off. Carefully worded email from Phil Spencer requires some parsing. It's Finally Official: 25H2 Is Next! Microsoft finally admits that the Dev channel is testing Windows 11 version 25H2, which will arrive, as expected, around October This news came as part of another set of commingled Dev and Beta channel builds. 25H2 will be delivered as an enablement package, so it's a minor release technically. Dev and Beta are linked because 25H2 and 24H2 are linked: Each will get the same features, as started with 22H2/23H2 in late 2023. Windows 11 Last week was Week D, but we didn't get preview updates per usual before WW That finally happened last Thursday - new preview updates for 24H2 and 23H2/22H2 24H2: Click to Do improvements, start of PC migration in Windows Backup, small icons in Taskbar, more. Windows Insider Preview: Those Dev/Beta builds noted above have the first implementation of third-party passkey. Microsoft Edge 138 is a pretty big update, with AI-enhanced history search and Copilot integration into the search box and new tab page. AI Microsoft 365 Copilot is available on the Mac. Apple may cave and adopt Anthropic Claude and/or OpenAI ChatGPT for Apple Intelligence. After Coda's acquisition and $1 billion in funding, Grammarly acquires Superhuman to build an "AI-native" productivity suite that will take on Big Tech (Microsoft, Google) and Little Tech (Notion, Proton) alike. Xbox and Gaming Xbox 360 dashboard is getting its first update in years. Halo Studios teases an October tease of the next Halo from the studio. New Game Pass titles for the first half of July - plus, COD: WWII turns up in Game Pass for the first time. Cursor sort of comes to the web and mobile - like Adobe Firefly on mobile, but for devs when "the mood strikes". Tips and Picks Tip/App picks of the week: Cure Mac envy. The Mac is about to get even prettier. But Windows 11 can rise to this challenge. The PC matters: Paul recommends Surface Laptop 7 as a MacBook Air alternative. Software? It's all free. Full screen apps: Hide the Taskbar and touchpad gestures - also, use DS Clock if you need to see the time. Transparent system menu? You can make the Taskbar transparent too. Want Spotlight? No problem, we have Command Palette (an updated, more extensible PowerToys Run) in PowerToys. Bonus app pick: Inoreader for RSS feeds (and read later if you want).

Richard Campbell is out this week! Microsoft continues to make changes to Notepad as it tests 'lightweight text formatting' in Notepad. 22H2, 23H2, and 24H2 got preview updates. And Microsoft has reportedly delayed its first-party Xbox / Windows gaming handheld. WindowsTHE GREAT NOTEPAD CONTROVERSY OF 2025 Microsoft announced it was testing "lightweight text formatting" in Notepad. This is one of MANY changes its made to Notepad in recent years. The community has collectively lost its s#$t - most thought this was RTF support - it's not. Everyone is wrong. In defense of Notepad. 24H2 Last Tuesday, 22H2/23H2 got a preview update in Week D, but 24H2 did not. The 24H2 update appeared later, with a ton of new features as expected - it's possible an out-of-band update requirement is responsible for the delay. Now we know for sure what's coming on Patch Tuesday next week. Windows Insider updates Today, in Canary: Energy saver in Intune, re-rollout of Phone companion, more. Dev and Beta (24H2): Quick machine recovery, Phone Link improvements - Plus, more just in Dev. Canary: Voice access and some bug fixes. Microsoft makes more DMA changes to Windows 11/Edge We all need these changes. Apple needs to pay attention. Also, hilarious: Apple copies what Microsoft did in the 1990s. Twice. Earnings: HP Dell Nvidia Microsoft 365/AI Microsoft announces (internally) its third major AI reorg in 15 months - Too ... slow? Microsoft is killing password management/autofill in the Microsoft Authenticator app (announced previously, but now a warning is showing up in the app). Good, you should use a third-party password manager anyway. Also, it's really an identity manager. Also, wake up. When/why to use Microsoft Authenticator. And why you should also use Google Authenticator. June 2025 update for the new Outlook adds tons of new features. Research and Analyst AI agents are now GA in Microsoft 365 Copilot. You can experiment with short, phone videos on your phone with Bing Video Creator. FU, OpenAI! NYT licenses its content to Amazon. Samsung may drop Gemini for Perplexity. Xbox/Gaming Microsoft has reportedly delayed its first-party Xbox/Windows gaming handheld. Xbox continues to be in a holding pattern on hardware - Theories include an Arm revolution in waiting and Amy Hood getting serious about trying to make this business profitable. Are handheld gaming PCs the next Netbook or mini-tablet ... or this is market real, sustainable, and big enough to matter? SteamDeck/Linux could be a problem here - related to this, Nvidia news. Microsoft reaches its first-ever agreement with a game studio union. Semi-related: J Allard is one of about 100 former Microsoft execs at Amazon now, and we have an update. Tips and picks Tip of the week: You can replace OneDrive/Google Drive with a NAS. My Synology NAS is better than expected as a Little Tech replacement for OneDrive and Google Drive. This changes everything App pick of the week: Microsoft Edge 137 Edge 137 has quietly emerged as the biggest release of this browser since its inception. Edge 137 adds PIP and business improvements, removes Wallet Hub and some truly pointless features. It adds Windows 11 App action support to PWAs. It brings Game Assist for Game Bar to everyone.
