Description
Join Scott Johnson and Tom Merritt to get short term, long term, and crazy predictions, as well as the always interesting FourCast Findings and FourCast QuickFire Questions segments. They're a little lazy, so they bring on two guests every episode and make them do the work.
Although the show is no longer in production, you can enjoy episodes from the TWiT Archives.
