Overtired

Much to our hosts’ dismay, Jon Stewart announces his departure from the 20-year-old institution known as The Daily Show with Jon Stewart. Kanye’s still throwing tantrums. There’s even enough discussion about technology to warrant this being a tech/gadget podcast. Brought to you by File Transporter: private cloud storage that is actually private.

The shuttering of the blog that first brought Christina and Brett together is the source of some melancholy reminiscing, right before the conversation launches into obligatory and completely uninformed conversation about sports (we didn’t not talk about the SuperBowl). From there, it’s anybody’s game. Brought to you by …the writers & editors who made The Unofficial Apple Weblog (TUAW) great.

Brett and Christina skip CES to reminisce about Mean Girls. Taylor Swift came up, but we don’t dwell on it. We’re growing. From drunken, -20° snow shoveling to watching some great new movies by the fire, this is a mid-winter show that has it all. Don’t they always, though?
