  • #14: Privacy Foes, iPhone Slows, Halftime Shows

    David and Christopher talk through the brewing privacy battle between Apple and Facebook, and figure out how a developer certificate became a weapon. Then reporter Tripp Mickle comes on to talk through Apple's latest earnings, including what it means for the smartphone business and which hints the company dropped about its content plans. Last, Jason Gay, sports columnist and noted Super Bowl goer, comes on to talk about all the ways the sports- and TV-watching experience is changing. He has no ideas for your Super Bowl party, unfortunately, but why stop the nacho cheese dip now?

  • #11: All the Gadgets You Can Eat

    David hits the CES tech show in Vegas, then reports back to Joanna and Christopher, who decided to avoid the crowds this year. His favorites: Hyundai's walking car and Samsung's modular MicroLED TV, which could be plastered across an entire wall. But first, they have an obligatory catch up on Apple woes, namely iPhone XR, aka the not-so-little iPhone that couldn't. After Christopher shares some helpful email pointers, David interviews Segway-Ninebot's Tony Ho about why electric scooters are, like, the best.

  • #10: Fewer iPhones, Cheaper Teslas, More Chips

    David, Joanna and Christopher ring in the New Year with their tech resolutions, but first they wring their hands over Apple's latest drama (China dragging down the iPhone King?) and Tesla's new headache (How can supply AND demand be down?). For the latter, they seek the wisdom of reporter Tim Higgins (Does Elon Musk have soft hands?). Finally, David interviews Renee James, a longtime Intel exec and founder of chipmaker Ampere, about the role processors play in Netflix binge-watching and personal data collection.
