Diggnation is a tech-focused humor video podcast hosted by Kevin Rose and Alex Albrecht. Originally broadcast on Revision3, the first episode aired on July 1, 2005 and the last episode on December 30, 2011. This run of video podcasts was one of the most successful early video podcasts. Following a reunion of Kevin and Alex on The Kevin Rose Show in July 2024, it was decided to reboot Diggnation, with the first new episode of "Diggnation (rebooted)" being released in September 2024.
Producer David Prager suggested naming the Digg website "Diggnation". Rose decided on the simpler Digg for the website and Diggnation for the podcast.
Diggnation usually starts with Rose and Albrecht reviewing beverages. These include beer, wine, tea, coffee, and hard liquors such as vodka or whisky. The hosts continue consuming the beverages for the rest of the show. In its original format, Rose and Albrecht then discuss Digg stories from the previous week, with off-topic banter with each other and with Prager and camera operator Glenn McElhose.
The intro sequence to the podcast was created by Eden Soto in collaboration with Prager. It was developed over a three-month period, according to Eden Soto's website.
