Leo Laporte has a long and storied history of casually racist statements on the air. He once said “they all look alike” and said “nigras” while sitting next to a black man — who he later fired and cancelled his show.
He called Flo a gypsy not once, but twice.
And then we come to his most recent, egregious example of racism. He used a photo of another random Asian woman to represent Katie Benner — who is not a fan of NatureBox — a woman he supposedly knows well, for the duration of a show.
Despite trying to walk back Megan Morrone’s casual racism, he continues to dig his own deeper, racist holes.
Leo Laporte literally cannot tell non-white people apart.
The latest example is Leo Laporte trying to dig himself out of a hole, live on The Tech Guy radio show, broadcast to an ever-shrinking live radio audience, subjected now to his casual racism. Nathan tries to save him repeatedly, but he won’t stop talking.
We find it incredibly painful that Leo Laporte can’t even keep his racism under control after the events of this past weekend in Charlottesville. Disgusting.
Oh no! I’m triggered!

Jesus Christ! Leo is a PIG and a RACIST? Who knew? Is it just me or is Leo spiraling out of control more and more as each month passes?

Adam, Leo has been a pig at least Tech TV days. Since Lisa has taken over the dad to day TWiT operation, it’s freed up Leo to descend into moral abyss that is his alone

“They all look alike.”
Drizzy» Quote comment
Stupid item! Perhaps he thought all soul/funk singers from the 60s and 70s sound alike? To label this as racist is quite far fetched. I could even make the point that TotalDrama is racist, because you looked at color, not sound/genre/era. Of course you’re not, but it shows how quickly (and wrongfully) the racism card is pulled.

I’d agree if the Drake callback weren’t included at the end. Is he a racist? No, he’s just an asshole who cheated on his wife and burnt every meaningful bridge he had in the tech community.

Uhmmm…. Aren’t the SJW’s the ones abusing the racisme card to the extreme? Guess you’re stuck in the wrong dimension my friend.

If you’re too dense to realize comments like his imply racist tendencies then I’m sorry I can’t help you. The guy moved to Petaluma which is 80% white. The reason to settle there was not wealth or opportunities. Historically the entire Napa Valley and surrounding areas are a hotbed for racism.
Also the song came out in the same decade he was a “DJ”, he has no excuse for not knowing it was Marvin Gaye so you can’t say it was a simple mistake. It’s clearly deep seeded racism when a person can’t differentiate between two notable persons of color because in their mind they are inferior to his own race.

I complained on the old TechTV forums when he said Chris Rock and Chris Tucker were the “same difference” on The Screen Savers. Got accused of being a whining liberal (ha). He’s been a subtle racist for as long as I’ve been paying attention.

We didn’t need comment from him on this one. He very rarely responds anyway.

Holy god! That family photo above this article! Can we talk about Leo’s shorts and those socks? Is Lisa wearing a wig? And her son! The kid has a 3rd leg!

My God. I’d always thought Leo Laporte was a dick but after looking over some of the posts on Total Drama my suspicion that he was a creepy narcissist are correct. Now it’s clear he’s also a huge racist as his antics often display for all to lay witness to. It’s hard to believe this guy still has a following or even friends for that matter. These people must be of the “beta weak willed easy prey” variety.

Leo Laporte’s a two bit hack, will buy a garbage microsoft velvet laptop before paying people on the crappy list, and that is now the good list. If it was my list, Leo’d be the bottom feeder list.
Fuck You, How do you like that? …Asshole.

When is the TWiT New York establishment going to open? Wasn’t Jeff Jarvis the one that was suppose to be head honcho there? Also when is the news team going to recover once losing Tom Merritt? Lisa ruined TWiT

The east coast studio is NEVER going to happen. Ever.
TWiT has done nothing to replace Tom, Iyaz, Sarah, Dvorak, on and on. It’s a damn shame.

Does SN want me to buy Harry’s or Dollar Shave Club razors? How can they both be the best? Assistance required.

I use the Harry’s blades on my face and the Dollar Shave Club on my body.

I second what Lou says. I needed to do a little touch up after an asscial and the Dollar Shave Club razor worked great.

Never use a straight blade to cut your scrotum sack hairs. Jesus Christ did I make a BIG MISTAKE.

Oh, dear god! Worst mistake I ever made was going too fast while shaving my ass and I cut myself inside the cheek. Every time I moved it would chafe.

I use an old fashioned DORCA korean razor set when I do wet shaves with a hot lather.

Dollar Shave are what Lisa uses in the bath just before she climbs into the Japanese Hot Tub with her son. Harry’s is Leo’s go to blade before he climbs onto the sex swing.?
