This week we finally have some new topics to talk about! Pebble announced their next generation smartwatch with a color e-paper display, and it was funded on Kickstarter in less than 12 hours. Motorola sent us a press event in a box, and it was really cool. The HTC One M9 and Samsung Galaxy S6 teasers and leaks are red hot. It was a good week, until…

38 minutes into the podcast everything went wrong. Internet issues caused the live Hangout to end, which is usually not a big deal because we record our audio locally. At least the audio version would be fine, right? Turns out we had some random recording issues with audio too. When that happens we just strip the audio from the Hangout video. Welp. The last 22 minutes are gone forever. Sorry.
