Podcast Episode #250 – A Plethora of News

January 11, 2016

We switch from famine to feast this week as it seems ALL the news was waiting for 2016 to get started.  There are hacks, there are announcements, Zohner may have gotten his mother's identity stolen. Motorola Mobility may now be part of an 80's pop group . . . we're not sure.  What we do know is that despite the fact that CES happened this week, almost none of our headlines are actually from CES!
