Leo Laporte (also known as "King Leo" or "Uncle Leo") is the creator of the TWiT Netcast Network, who pays Brian's paychecks for NSFW. In NSFW #13 (W1NNER GAM3S), Justin represented TWiT and thus swore fealty to Leo. Later, at SXSW, BOTH Brian and Justin kneeled before Leo... who subsequently ordered their decapitation.

It is rumored that Leo will be changing TWiT's tagline from "Netcasts you love...from people you trust. This is TWiT." to "Netcasts you love...from people you trust (and Brian and Justin). This is TWiT." However, this rumor is most likely false because Leo very likely still has no idea who Justin is.

When Brian comes on TWiT, Leo acts much sillier than normal (and can even be naughty). This is often made worse when Leo breaks out the wine. Where Brian and Justin try to be on their best behavior around Leo to improve the image of NSFW, Leo ends up throwing it all out the window (see: Dolphin Fuckers).

Leo often has to defend NSFW from haters in the normal TWiT chat room who keep asking when he is going to cancel the show (because NSFW gets lower numbers compared to other TWiT shows, and Leo had previously cancelled other underperforming shows). He eventually said that he would never cancel NSFW no matter how bad it got, but admits that he doesn't watch the show because he doesn't want to be seen as "unnecessary adult supervision." That said, he is pretty bent on hiring Brian and convincing him to move his family to Petaluma to do NSFW from the TWiT Brickhouse.

As Leo is part of the cast of Ham Nation (which Justin has nicknamed "Hammer Time" and is currently recorded right before NSFW), sometimes he sticks around and chats with Brian and Justin during the TWiT-side of the pre-show while JammerB and crew finish preparations for NSFW. Most of the time, it tends to be Brian and Justin waving to Leo or otherwise trying to get his attention.
