I Registered Just To Voice My Opinion About Natali!

by no4natali Feb 9, 2009 10:38AM PST

I don't know much about the Buzz lounge. I've enjoyed BOL for a little over a year now but have never felt the need to hang out in the forum. Until now.

I understand Molly is unable to be on the show all week anymore. I'm okay with that. Tom is great and should be given some kind of award. Jason is coming into his own and adds some fun to the podcast as well. I just don't know what's up with Natali though. I don't know how I should feel. Sad

I love the show and don't want it to end. I know that nobody in the forums has even the slightest clue about what's going on at the CNET offices and I imagine that these decisions must be very difficult to make and affect many people.

But seriously, the show just isn't working for me anymore. I read that people think its the chemistry, or lack of experience/knowledge or enthusiasm.

I don't know exactly what it is, but the show is different in a bad way, and I worry about it. Sad

You have to give it more than a few weeks.

Personally I felt it took Jason some time to adapt as it will Natali. Be patient and maybe she will surprise you.

I also made register mainly to raise my voice. I am not at all saying that Natali is bad, she is really good. But Molly and the chemistry of Jason and Tom was the reason I was coming to BOL. I wanted to try out for some time before making a decision but it is just not working. I still listen to BOL but it is no longer a first thing podcast.

In fact I think Natali Del Conte is one of the best names I have heard on podcast. It just sounds good. And I loved the episodes when she comes on guest along with Molly and the team. But without Molly, it just does not feel same. I have noticed one thing in past several episode about Natali that she tries to bring the discussion back to the main topic. Well, it is the best thing to do as host but I tend to like the discussion on the podcast. I think all of us who come to BOL reads enough amount of tech news and they most like know the basic details of it. What I come for is your opinion. Let the ideas, discussion, debate and all other fire flow. Please Natali, if Molly is not coming back, please do this small thing. Please.

Um, OK.

I like Natali. I don't think that she's any different. I've been a listener since 2006, and that I think it's time for some changes. Molly not being on is a big change, but it's nice to have some new people around.
