I was invited to be on TWiT this past Friday! It was a lot of fun. The guys were all perfect gentlemen, and I hope I can go on again sometime. Who knew you could spend so much time talking about start-ups? With me on the show was Merlin Mann (I’m a huge fan of 43folders), John C. Dvorak, and Patrick Norton (and, of course, Leo).

I listened! All of you together made for a great show. I envy you getting to chat with all those dudes!
Good work Veronica! I’ve just virtually met you, listening to TWiT at the moment. I think Leo should have you back soon.
I can’t say I am a big fan of TWIT.
But seeing as you are on it this week, I’ll give it a listen
I have to admit that I don’t really like Dvorak’s columns …..
TWiT needs more female contributors. I’ll be listening as soon as I get back to London.
Nearly all of the feedback on their page is positive towards your appearance… I think you’ve found your calling as all-purpose-female-technophile-pundit (TM), V!
yes.. i agree.. twit needs more veronica.. great job!
and yes.. dvorak also irks the heck out of me.. :/
Dvorak is hillarious on TWIT! I guess I’m the only person here that’s a regular listener to TWIT.
Good to see you finally got a go on TWiT. Judging by the feedback at TWiT.tv, it seems most are begging for you to be a regular now
AWESOME!
Veronica, TWiT makes my Monday mornings bearable, but as soon as I heard Leo say “Ms. Veronica Belmont from cnet”, it made my morning that much better. Be on more TWiTs! The show is better for it!
Great job on TWiT. Plus points to you on the Boondock Saints reference
I see, the guys were all perfect gentlemen. Now the question is, were you a perfect lady? Were you?!
You were great on Twit, it would rock if you could do the show again.
Great show, any chance you might invite Merlin on Buzz out Loud? TWIT hasn’t been as good since Kevin Rose was on it regularly.
A breath of fresh air. You’re a good complement to the TWIT usual suspects. You mentioned not being able to find new music on the radio. Being a good Minneapolitan, here’s my “Minnesota Nice” advice: Check out Minnesota Public Radio’s station “The Current” (http://minnesota.publicradio.org/radio/services/the_current/). You can stream from there or via I-Tunes. There’s a committed crew of DJ’s constantly digging up new music.
TWiT’s always seem more exciting with one of the Buzz Out Loud members on. You did a fantastic job, definitely do more TWiTs when you can.
Veronica, you were great, and very patient with that Jerk Dvorak. I don’t think he’s funny at all–just obnoxious and disruptive. I think the best parts of this show were your interactions with Merlin–the two of you should do a show together!!
It was noble of Tom to defend female podcasters on his recent TWiT appearance and I’m glad you were able to go on there and back him up. Way to go.
Great to hear you on the show, just listened to it. John C was particularly cranky today, he needs to take something for that, it gets annoying.
Gonna check out Buzz out loud now (this internet thing is such a time waster - one thing leads to the next and next …)
V - you were terrific on TWIT. As good a performance as anyone I’ve ever heard as a guest on that show and I’ve heard ‘em all. As a Buzztown member I gotta say; you did us proud!
Congrads!
Dvorak was extra angry this week!

I thought the show was great, but John C. seemed in a particularly foul mood for some reason.
Great Job V! You made all of us in Buzztown proud, esp. after Dvorak was so disparaging of women in tech during the previous TWit podcast. You go girl!
TWiT has been much better the past few episodes. What do those episodes have in common?
People that I want to listen to talk about tech… talking about tech.
You, Tom, and Merlin Mann have made the past few TWiTs entertaining.
Leo should take note.
I’ve been listening to TWiT for awhile now and for everyone who have just recently listened to it because of Veronicas appearence, Will find Dovorak quite annoying at first and a bit grumpy, but over time trust me he becomes the voice of reason on that show amidst a show filled with tech enthusiasts who occasionaly become blinded by Hype.
They got nothing on V! you were excellent! look forward to future featuring V.B. on podcasts from TWIT!
I agree with these folks, your a great addition to TWiT. So few woman can represent tech.
The only problem I have with you is that your alliance
Dvorak doesn’t know what he’s missing.
