It's a good week for us. Yo!, Slingshot, and Washboard are all the buzz and we're all left scratching our heads on what the hell is going on. Brian apologizes. Jason is sick as a dog and contrary to Brians accusations, there was only 1 swig of Jamesons.

We discuss the dark side of the quantified self and discuss the tools of laziness, which for the next 30 days are mainly beer and soccer. Some goodness in the world of patents and how F-Me money might just save the day.

It's an interestingly grumpy and funny week as the guys talk about Orange is the New Black, WWDC, the state of the Internet and Google and Facebooks stranglehold on content as well as a journalist who's gone rogue. Some interesting security news & more!
