FedexoInsightful tech newsOne of the first podcast I've listened to and still one of the top ones that I always follow. It's Family friendly and I really enjoy the deep discussion on many subjects that are science and tech related.
-
lgpav1A great PodcastTodd records this show twice a week and it is one of the best podcasts I listed to! It is fun and has lots of great info!! Keep up the great work.
-
PtvogelzangGNC among the best around!GNC is a great show, and is only getting better! Great job, Todd!
-
DDjetExcellentExcellent show. Twice a week. Latest news and content every time. Worth a listen if you love tech.
-
madison_mac_guyDecentThis kid has a decent tech news podcast but I usually start listening 10 - 15 minutes into the show, when the real content has started.
-
Tav72GreatLike listen to a friend
-
jd5293informative and entertaininggreat podcast, informative and Todd is entertaining as well
-
Dlove5744Barely a tech podcastFast forward 20-30 mins to get to the actually news. Even then it's more Todd's opinion than it is news. 45 mins of the show are spent on sponsors, plugging his own stuff, talking about being a podcaster and his personal life. Stick with TWIT or CNET.
-
DigitalPMGToo much advertisingDon't listen at night. You might fall asleep.
-
kbaronaSets the Standards for All PodcastsTodd offers the best produced podcast out there. He is extremely professional with his show but he is also very casual at the same time. What's best of all is that he offers great commentary on the most current tech news and is very generous with the various periodic contests he he hosts. Thanks Todd for welcoming all of us into the ohana.
-
LloydRVQuality Tech PodcastA good tech podcast, with great audio and interesting features. Very listenable, my only gripe would be the number of sponsor mentions although overall it's a understandable tradeoff.
-
rly1Interesting podcastJust listened to the most recent podcast. Didn't really get interesting and informative until the middle. I hadn't heard about the Sony Dash before so that was cool. It was pretty amusing at points and a good review of recent news in the tech world.
-
HunterA3One of the bestThere's Leo and there's Todd. Both are the best at what they do, but Todd does it solo and from half way around the world! His show is one of the must listen to shows if you have a list of tech podcast shows you subscribe to. His show makes Tuesdays and Fridays go by much faster and I look forward to each new show that drops into my itunes folder.
-
alee67Good tech podcast.Todd covers a variety of topics that he's seen in the news in technology and science. His choices are generally interesting, and he speaks well. Sometimes, the topics chosen seem a little random.
-
Trucker TomOne of my favorite podcastsGNC has become the podcast I usually listen to first when there's a new episode. Todd does a great job of finding and reacting to the most current interesting tech stories.
-
bigds63"Geek Fix Central"Best tech show ever, covers lots of tech news and Todd tells some very good stories to top it off. I have never missed a single show since day one. Thanks for the great show Todd and keep them coming.
-
tnshadyladyPretty good for the genreKnowledgeable about current technology, personable, but voice is a bit irritating. While I listen for tech news, I find my mind wandering. Sorry, Todd! :) Otherwise, yes, a great show.
-

MegalomacWrote the book on podcastingExcellent current tech news from the guy who (literally) wrote the book on podcasting. Just started listening, as a tech news junkie myself, I think it'll be something I'll be listening to for some time.
-
stustonGreat showGives me everythig I need to keep up with tech topics.
-
The Force FieldA podcast in its true formGeek News Central isn't just a podcast, it's an icon. It's helped define the podcasting genre. Todd delivers the content in an easy going and personable style. He talks to you, not at you and from the very start of the show he makes you feel right at home. Although I've been a listener for quite a while it didn't take long for me to feel part of the GNC Ohana. You don't have to be a geek to like Geek News Central. I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to hear a podcast the way podcasting was meant to be.
-
MedrosGreat showNumbering over 500, Geek News Central, brought to you by Todd Cochrane, has been bringing the geek from all over the world for a long time. Definitely worth a listen, and if you can check it out live, for some great talk, cool chat, and a stellar show.
-
jay4restGeek News at Its BestGeek News Central combines entertainment and information that gives you the latest news from the world of Technology.

-
WOLnewsValue ListingI have been listening to Todd since 2004 and his show is very valuable for tech junkies or those learning about tech. Also, his sense of humor and laugh is infectuous.
-
PacGamerMy Radar is Pointing to Yes!GNC is absolutely amazing! This is wonderfully prouduced. In each episode, Todd gives a run down of the current topics and his take on each one. The length of each show is perfect. This show definately deserves to be on your podcast list. My radar points to yes.
-
Michael DellEasy going tech newsTodd has a personable style giving you all the tech news and views in a highly entertaining manner.
-
W. Axel FoleyA True Podcasting Innovator - The Original and The BestGNC is the best tech podcast out there. Not only does Todd give us the goods twice a week but his unique perspective as a podcasting innovator cuts through the hype to the truth of what it is like to make a living from new media. Todd's personal insights are funny, heartwarming and engrossing and his knack for finding news that is relevant, timely and intelligent makes GNC the real deal.
-
Poeticsoul444Awesome Tech PodcastThis is an amazing podcast. The host is so friendly. I love listening to this podcast. It is my main source of tech information. This is a must for any tech geek. I have been a proud listener for over a year and a half and will still keep listening. Just give it a listen and you'll be hooked.
-
DisquetteWay too much fluffThe only episode I've tried listening to was #491. I was astounded that the host took 12min 30sec to get to the first piece of "geek news". The rest was haha-oh-aren't-i-witty and sponsor promos and contest winners. What a waste of my time. That's a full SDR reviews podcast worth of time completely wasted. However, the audio quality of the vapid one sided banter was good, hence a two star instead of one star.
-
barrymaineGNC must listenThe one podcast I don't miss. Excellent presentation with a friendly, familiar tone. Content is interesting, timely and informative. The rants are enjoyable as well and always provide a meaningful point of view.
-
sentimental7Awesome Podcast!Todd, Chantal and Cherie, I loved the podcast. Lots of great guests and I think I might be on my way to becoming a geek. I hope I made it fun for everyone while chatting. Especially doing the WAKE UP!!! hollering. It was great to meet everyone and I look forward to the next podcast. I am especially happy about the donations going to the Disabled Vets. That is my main reason for being at the podcast. I cannot believe I made it the whole 24 hrs. When the podcast was over, I felt completely drained. I would do it again though. Remember everyone to respect our vets, the disabled and other nationalities. We are all on earth for each other. I also liked that you guys respect the earth and are into buying "Green". Well, I would like to thank everyone for allowing me to be apart of the podcast. Merry Christmas to everyone and a Happy New Year.
-
TauvasGeek News Podcast ReviewExcellent show; great quality and definitely plenty of quantity. I've been entertained throughout the entirety of of each podcast. I can't really think of anything negative to say. Maybe more video podcasts would be a good thing, other than that; I just want to say again that this is a great show and would recommend subscribing to it.
-
ElkayeGreat Technology Podcast!Todd Cochran has a very pleasant voice-- so pleasant, that it feels as if I am listening to a friend. Topics include tech news, websites, and product reviews. He encourages listeners to to think and get involved. I feel like I am always learning something new. The podcast is a little over 1 hour long, but to me it's a little short, especially considering how much new information is coming out all the time.
-
uzziah0Geek News Central - Family Friendly TechThis is a great family froendly podcast that accurately and friendly covers a wide range of tech. Todd is fair and balanced, and I really like the fact that he is clean. I can listen with my son or other family around and not have to worry about muting. Todd really opens his podcast to the audience, bringing everyone into the ohana, so a new listener quickly gets the feeling of being one of the family. Todd records his podcast while he has a live audience listening. He also is very responsive to this group of people. Answering questions, even live while the podcast is being created. A great podcast for all levels of tech followers.
-
smschankeGeek news = must haveThis is one of my favorite podcasts for staying on top of what's up in the world of technology. At about an hour long it's perfect for walking the dog. The show is full of good usefel content with Todd's unique perspective. If your a geek give this a try and I'm sure you'll be back for more.
-
DinosmilePodcasting the GeekdomGeek News Central Podcast is a weath of geeky news, trivia and fun information. The podcast is a bit long for me (at an hour and 15 minutes, I have some trouble sticking it out), but it's well produced. Highly recommended
-
JHB1234567890Great tech contentTodd does a great job in preparing content for the show that is the latest and greatest info circulating on the internet. He also manages to find stuff that is a little off beat as well which makes the show unique and little more interesting. Subscribing to Todd's show notes is a great way to easily access the topics that you want to explore further. He's a unique podcast personality that kind of grows on you over time.
-
StLRamsFanMy First and Still My FavoriteWhen I bought my first iPod, in August 2005, Geek News Central was the first podcast I discovered. I've been subscribed ever since. Todd brings a mix of interesting tech topics and what's going on in his world to every show. A new podcast comes out consistently twice a week, and it's always the first (of many) that I listen to. Highly recommended.
-
teechbizWhat I liked about your pod castOne of the other things I did find I liked and am interested in hearing is about your 24 hour pod cast for charity. My son will soon be stationed in Iraq . As a matter of fact he is one of the people I’m hoping to win a computer for. It is very hard for these young men and women to be so far away from family and friends. When they return they are not always given the respect they deserve. As a Military Mom I would like to thank you for wanting to help Veterans. I also liked the fact that you didn’t talk over the heads of us nontechies. Like I said I love the amazing things that technology has done for me but if all you talk about is an alphabet soup of technology measurements you’ve lost me. Your podcast was easy to understand and that’s why enjoyed it.
