143: Megan Morrone — TWiT.tv Host, Mother, Whole Life Challenger

Available On: iTunes  | Google Play  | Stitcher  | Spotify Megan Morrone is a technology journalist hosting video shows covering tech news, longform interviews, and tips for normal people trying to make their way in a world where tech can be as confusing as it is ubiquitous. She is also a freelance writer, wife, and mom to three children and one dog (who reads and responds to her email for her and helps her attain inbox-zero!) Since 2015 Megan has been hosting and producing shows on TWiT (This Week in Tech), Leo Laporte’s technology network. She currently hosts iOS Today (a show about how to use your iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch, and Apple TV) and Tech News Weekly (a show that keeps you up-to-date on all the tech news that matters.) She co-hosts Know How (a maker show), Triangulation (a longform interview show), and The New Screen Savers (a tech variety show). She also covers live tech events and product announcements. From Andy: This was a really special conversation for me. I have been a HUGE fan of Leo Laporte and Megan Morrone for many years. Leo has had a radio show called “The Tech Guy” (who is Leo) on KFI in Los Angeles on Saturdays for almost 20 years that I’ve listened to on and off since it’s inception. And I’ve known Megan as his counterpoint on TWiT TV (This Week in Tech). When I saw via Twitter that Megan was reviewing our WLC App on TWiT TV, I almost fell over! By the way – the review is as fantastic as it is hilarious – you can watch it here. After watching the review, I started up a conversation with Megan on Twitter – when she asked me if she could come on the podcast to talk about tech, health, and fitness!  Of course, I said yes… and the rest, as they say, is history.
