"net@night" is a weekly podcast hosted by Amber MacArthur and Leo Laporte. It was added to the TWiT.tv network on November 8 2006 and is the first of the TWiT shows to be broadcast live on the internet."net@night" showcases new, fun, and interesting things that MacArthur finds online. It replaced a previous show, "Inside the Net", in which MacArthur and Laporte interviewed the innovators and developers behind Web 2.0 sites and applications. Laporte indicated, however, that occasional episodes of "Inside the Net" may still be produced in the future.

The show was originally broadcast every Sunday night at 7:00 PM ET (pre-show begins at 6:30) using TalkShoe, which enabled listeners to contact the hosts through text and voice chat. The live aspect gave the podcast a new level of interaction for consumers who were able to call in and ask questions of Laporte and MacArthur. It was also distributed as a podcast every Tuesday via the Inside the Net RSS feed. New shows in this format stopped being produced on September 25, 2007 due to scheduling difficulties.
