What’s worse is that since Leo starting doing his version of “The Truman Show” he’s gotten even less focused. When he doesn’t have the tyranny of a network clock to watch and instead he’s always on, he just goes all ADD or something.

I’ve said before on Twitter that it feels like Merlin is getting bored with MBW. He disappears in the middle of shows, he blows them off, and when he’s on he sounds frustrated when he can’t make his point in the middle of others talking over him.

So much potential is wasted.

Compare this to, say, the Macworld podcasts, which are tight, informative, entertaining, and above all, EDITED!

There’s an hour and 23 minutes of my life I didn’t lose. Thanks.

P.S. Did they really spend more than 7 minutes on the Jeff Smith ringtone plug?

It's what I wait for every time, and last week we got a classic 'Ringo' attempt. Worth an hour of anyone's time.</p> But the question on everyone’s lips is: Did Leo do his appalling English accent?
