    You will be missed great show
  • Shrutefarms
    Just the best
    Such an informative show and full of knowledge. I'm a little sad it's turning to all aviation, my favorite shows where on color science and photography. Still worth 5 stars.
  • sandwichcowboy
    interesting podcast
    this is a good podcast if you are interested in aviation topics
  • bob the open minded poster
    who cares where the person is from???
    i don't care if he is from canada or upper volta. the content is what is import not ones nationality. and to think that just because he is canadian makes his opinion any more less, only reflects badly on the writer of the review. So listen and make up your own mind. and remember it could be a neighbour talking or someone from across the world. that is what makes the internet a beautiful thing. there are a lot of smart (and stupid) people outside the US as well as those inside the US. but one should base their judgment on what the person said, not where is mother gave birth to. judge for yourself. and ignore the narrow minded people

    "Ramblings" is an apt title
    One of the episodes is titled "Ray's Ramblings.' How appropriate. Perhaps Ray is too much of a polymath, but I found his shows to be mostly unanchored random min-speaches about various things that caught his attention during the past week. I think you'll find the titles are often misleading as he often doesn't stick to one topic.
  • Pen is Mightier
    Ravings of a lunetic.
    This podcast degrades the TWiT network. Leo should focus on quality, not quantity.
  • Powersponge
    Great Show!
    This podcast is a paced and deliberate/informative show in a world of quick-fix information. I have been working with digital image manipulation tools for over 20 years, and I still hear something useful about digital color and calibration nearly every episode. Thank you for your time Mr. Maxwell! For the record, I find the show to be apolitical.
  • 2much2do
    I thought this was a Tech show not a Political Soap Box
    Just another political rant show, I guess they have it all figured out in Canada
  • Alosttexan
    One of my Favorite Podcasts
    Maxwell's House is one of the best podcasts for tech people who don't want the same old "Apple is the best and non-users are idiots" or "Windows rules and Apple people are snobs. Instead, this podcast discusses a wide range of interesting topics on all sorts of technology-related topics. Totally worth listening to at least an episode or two...

  • mistrrhappy
    Great general technology podcast.
    Cool "Popular Science" or "Popular Mechanics" type topics. HOW CAN I GET ALL THE PRIOR EPISODES? C'MON, LEO!

    Greate Holiday Gift
    What a way to end the decade and a GREAT holiday gift. Thank you. I have seen Ray on a number of episodes of the LAB with LEO, He makes technology interesting and understandable in the real world. looking forward to the next thousand or more shows.
