Changes at TWiT

As we head into October, there will be a few changes on TWiT.

Starting next week, OMGcraft will be leaving our network. Chad “OMGchad” Johnson will continue his show independently, and new episodes will be posted on the OMGcraft YouTube channel.

We are also retiring The Social Hour. Originally called net@night, it is one of our longest-running netcasts, starting when “social media” was still in its infancy. As the landscape has matured and trends have shifted towards apps, we feel that social media coverage is now a part of almost every show on our network.

For similar reasons, redditUP will also be going on hiatus. It may return in a revamped form at some point.

Chad will continue to co-host The Giz Wiz, and you’ll still see him at the Tricaster throughout the week. Sarah Lane will continue to host Tech News 2Night and iFive for the iPhone, in addition to co-hosting iPad Today. You can keep up with Amber MacArthur’s latest projects by following @ambermac on Twitter.

Marketing Mavericks will be moving to Thursdays at 12 noon, starting on October 2.

As always, we appreciate your support as we go through these changes.  Leo and I continuously strive to make TWiT the best it can be and we couldn’t do it without you.

redditUP

Over the last few years, reddit has grown from a social website where news is shared into an online community where news is made. Whether it’s a developing story, an interesting Ask Me Anything, or an emerging meme, reddit has truly become the front page of the internet.

As reddit grows in popularity, it's easy to miss out on interesting content. That’s why we created redditUP, a weekly show that features some of the best that reddit has to offer.

 

Every week, Sarah Lane and I will recap the best stories, comment exchanges, AMAs, TILs, memes, viral videos, and more. We’ll also recommend lesser-known subreddits and give you tips to improve your reddit experience.

 

redditUP records live every Wednesday at 4:30PM Pacific at http://live.twit.tv/.

 

You can check out the first episode and find links to subscribe here.

 

Of course, you can also contribute stories to our subreddit at /r/redditup

 

We hope you enjoy the show!
