Mr Lawrence 🇪🇺🇷🇼Watching the latest #BBC #TechNow edition. No idea what has gone wrong here. #BBCClick was a good weekly programme with a personality which largely came from Spencer Kelly and Lara Lewington, despite the lack of a dedicated studio set. The new programme is just “content” with no unifying elements outside the anodyne title sequence, and just seems to appear whenever they can be bothered to produce one. It’s a bit sad really.

Tech-loving podcast listeners, can anyone recommend a podcast or two that are in the same vein as the BBC's Click (RIP) TV show used to be?

Watching "Tech Now" on BBC IPlayer.
Feels like "BBC Click deep-dive sessions, but with cheaper presenters" 😐
And the intro feels like it's from the late 1990s with it's Windows 95 vibe section 🙄
I'm wondering when the last #BBCClick episode is going to be on.
They announced that it was being axed in October 2024. And episodes were patchy over December and possibly even November.
But I just went on iPlayer and the "Continue Watching" appeared to have a new episode. And there's actually two!
So are these not Click? Or did the announcement have a non-obvious date? Because one episode was CES, which _has_ to be new content!
Not saying I'm late to the party, but… I only just found out that the BBC have cancelled #BBCClick … back in October! 😱
The word thing is that there's still been new episodes (with some gaps). Must be stuff they'd recorded before the announcement or something.
Poor Spenley and co. He seems so upset. https://x.com/spenley/status/1846474074412679289
Also, Formula E was featured in today's BBC Click. They went to Jaguar TCS and had a look around.

Watching #BBCClick. They're talking to a company that makes a fake "AI influencer".
The company is literally called The Clueless, and I think that's perfect! 😆
The logged out experience on Twitter is REALLY crap.
There's not been any BBC Click on for the last couple of weeks. Normally I'd check their Twitter account to say if they posted about taking a short break, and when they'd be back.
But "logged out" view is "popular tweets first". So I can't see any recent announcements 😐
(And that's before we get to the overload of "sign in with Google", "Don't miss out - sign up!" and "Cookies?" like some desperate tabloid site 🙄)
