  <description>&lt;strong&gt;This week’s episode brought to you by &lt;a href="https://muddy-cup-coffee-house-beechview.business.site/"&gt;Muddy Cup&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://www.SliceOnBroadway.com"&gt;Slice on Broadway&lt;/a&gt;, and &lt;a href="https://www.sidekickmediaservices.com/"&gt;Sidekick Media Services&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/strong&gt;
The gang's all here as Dudders, Chilla and Sorg talk about this week in tech news, including:
&lt;ul&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;Chilla is sharing his recent &lt;a href="https://www.oculus.com/go/?locale=en_US"&gt;Oculus experience&lt;/a&gt; as his Awesome Thing of the Week.&lt;/li&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;Katie is sharing &lt;a href="https://replayfx.org/"&gt;Replay FX&lt;/a&gt; as her Awesome Thing of the Week!&lt;/li&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;Couldn't make it out to Replay FX? They had some livestream. Chilla is sharing how he got to experience the weekend through video!&lt;/li&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;Sorg's Awesome Thing of the Week is his upgraded &lt;a href="https://www.automatic.com/"&gt;Automatic connected car assistant&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/li&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;Did you know RedBull has a magazine? We didn't either - but what we DID find out was about &lt;a href="https://www.si.com/more-sports/2019/08/01/ninja-leaves-twitch-stream-mixer?xid=socialflow_facebook_si&amp;amp;utm_campaign=sportsillustrated&amp;amp;utm_medium=social&amp;amp;utm_source=facebook.com&amp;amp;fbclid=IwAR3SASqNerZ7C4OdHTUjPMmhE7CnOY1N3ozvj9wQYO6L4tymfHbOjpEuz8c"&gt;Ninja leaving Twitch&lt;/a&gt;!&lt;/li&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;Thanks to the Ninja news, Sorg and Chilla are examining their own gameplay styles.&lt;/li&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;
&lt;a href="https://abcnews.go.com/International/french-bird-man-franky-zapata-successfully-crosses-english/story?id=64763747&amp;amp;cid=social_twitter_abcn"&gt;Flyboard is a go&lt;/a&gt; - across the English Channel with Franky Zapata.&lt;/li&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;Disney, Hulu, and ESPN are coming together with a &lt;a href="https://9to5mac.com/2019/08/06/disney-hulu-espn-bundle-price/"&gt;streaming video bundle&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/li&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;Facebook and Instagram &lt;a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/sextech-startups-dame-unbound-protest-facebook-ad-censorship-2019-7"&gt;ad censorship&lt;/a&gt; leads to a protest - - by a sex tech startup.&lt;/li&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;
&lt;a href="https://www.engadget.com/2019/08/05/the-matrix-returns-to-theaters-august-30th/"&gt;The Matrix is returning to theaters&lt;/a&gt; with Dolby Vision and Atmos!&lt;/li&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;The &lt;a href="https://www.cnet.com/news/amazon-is-going-to-kill-your-dash-button/#"&gt;Amazon dash button&lt;/a&gt; is going away.&lt;/li&gt;

  <description>&lt;strong&gt;This week’s episode brought to you by &lt;a href="https://comicbookpitt.fireside.fm/"&gt;Comic Book Pitt&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="https://www.sliceonbroadway.com/"&gt;Slice on Broadway&lt;/a&gt;, and &lt;a href="http://www.alexanderkahrs.com/"&gt;Alex Kahrs Design &amp;amp; Media!&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/strong&gt;
We're starting the year off right - with some tech news and CES updates!  Krause and Sorg are bringing you some highlights, including:
&lt;ul&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;Sorg is sharing his Awesome Thing of the Week  - &lt;a href="https://www.theverge.com/2019/1/8/18174037/black-mirror-bandersnatch-netflix-missing-happy-ending-charlie-brooker-interactive-choices"&gt;Bandersnatch&lt;/a&gt;!&lt;/li&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;Krause is hitting the tip of the CES 2019 iceberg as his Awesome Thing of the Week.&lt;/li&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;There's a &lt;a href="https://www.facebook.com/GameSpot/videos/722531541480653/"&gt;robot Pikachu&lt;/a&gt;, and it will sing to you?!?!&lt;/li&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;We're learning about sous vide food preparation on this week's show.&lt;/li&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;
&lt;a href="https://mailchi.mp/missionpic/mission-pics-not-so-distant-future?fbclid=IwAR0Tf8o7hBpnT1FEvoZQScxLbE8oJocMWAU0abY-8OcVz2irF-S18YtMl4Y"&gt;Mission Pic&lt;/a&gt; may have shut down, but its users are keeping it going thanks to Instagram and a Facebook Group.&lt;/li&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;We are deep-diving some CES 2019 news - with an &lt;a href="https://www.cnet.com/news/lgs-rollable-oled-tv-is-incredible-and-its-actually-going-on-sale-in-2019-ces/"&gt;LG rollable OLED TV&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/li&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;For a company that doesn't show up at CES 2019, Apple has a bit of a presence with &lt;a href="https://www.cnet.com/news/at-ces-2019-apple-finally-sets-itunes-airplay-loose-through-samsung-lg-vizio-partnerships/"&gt;AirPlay and iTunes compatibility&lt;/a&gt; on non-Apple devices.&lt;/li&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;
&lt;a href="https://www.engadget.com/2019/01/03/vuzix-blade-hands-on/?fbclid=IwAR1IH6RhAGMcK7DfdFbbn8UgUhf1xFtBCGqgUb6ojkELden-70tWIhq3mms"&gt;Vuzix Blade&lt;/a&gt; smart glasses are available for pre-order.&lt;/li&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;Audi has a &lt;a href="https://www.engadget.com/2019/01/07/audi-backseat-vr-disney-marvel/?fbclid=IwAR2hxVAiDz40kGUbL1mKsliv9do-kIXU_vBU1hWhptt6MsQJEuJAKdBGJbw"&gt;VR game for the backseat&lt;/a&gt; that interacts with vehicle movements for gameplay.&lt;/li&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;HTC has a &lt;a href="https://www.engadget.com/2019/01/07/htc-vive-cosmos-exists-pc-phone/?fbclid=IwAR3qDHbrZsveTXK8kwPb6FzpJRc7b6qeFZs4GbMBb0s5JtRtZVdSGvdpkak"&gt;new VR headset&lt;/a&gt; in the works.&lt;/li&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;What if your phone could be your gaming PC?&lt;/li&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;
