From Wikipedia: 

Born November 29, 1956, the son of the geologist Leo F. Laporte, Laporte studied Chinese history at Yale University before dropping out in his junior year to pursue his career in radio broadcasting, where his early on-air names were Dave Allen and Dan Hayes. He began his association with computers with his first home computer, an Atari 400…

Laporte owns and operates a podcast network, TWiT.tv with his wife Lisa Laporte. Its shows are available on iTunes and other podcast subscription services. Before the expansion to new facilities in 2011, Laporte said TWiT earned $1.5 million annually on a production cost of $350,000. In a 2012 Reddit posting, he commented that revenue was approaching $4 million.

    I’ve probably watched/listened to every MacBreak Weekly Podcast since 2005, and I listen to a lot of podcasts. Count me in!

    Leo is entertaining when talking hardware, software and such. I don’t know if he’s knowledgeable enough about Apple’s/AAPL’s prospects (investing) to devote an hour of my time listening.

    I’ll wait and peruse the transcript afterwards.

    Hi, all. New subscriber here. I have been following the board for quite a while and decided to jump in. I follow a lot of Apple pages and analysts but have never found anything so in sync with the way I think about the business as this board and its commenters. I look forward to learning and hopefully adding where I can.
