TORONTO – The Portable Consultant last night awarded Leo Laporte, creater of the TWIT.tv media conglomerate, with an impromptu award at the “Inside the Net” Taping & Meetup held at Liberty Village’s No Regrets restaurant and lounge.

The award was in recognition of Mr. Laporte’s long term contribution to both Old Media and Podcasting Netcasting and for being such a fine example for those over the age of 32 40 45 who enjoy listening to his shows in order to work up the courage to become podcasters netcasters themselves.

A pre-owned copy of Mitch Miller’s Fireside album was presented after the taping. The award was contingent on the understanding that Leo will share it with Steve Gibson of Security Now. “That’s funny”, said Laporte.

The Portable Consultant, seated in a one-man Peanut Gallery behind people who had been hugged by Amber MacArthur, also took the opportunity to instruct staff at No Regrets in the finer points of selling Moosehead lager.

Cheers!
