  <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;This week’s episode brought to you by  &lt;a href="http://www.sliceonbroadway.com/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;Slice on Broadway&lt;/a&gt;, and &lt;a href="https://www.sidekickmediaservices.com/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;Sidekick Media Services&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;We have the extended AwesomeCast Crew online to talk about the year the was! &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;We talk about our Awesome Things of the Year!
&lt;ul&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;Chilla loves Dongles! Including&lt;a href="https://www.amazon.com/Satechi-Aluminum-Adapter-Charging-Headphone/dp/B07K6YFW7X" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt; one that expands his iPad&lt;/a&gt; and one that turns any television into a monitor for &lt;a href="https://www.microsoft.com/accessories/en-us/products/adapters/wireless-display-adapter-2/p3q-00001" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;Windows computers with Microsoft Wireless Display Adapter&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/li&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;Cynthia has two awesome things includng her first experience with the Oculus Quest and the  combination of Screentime plus Wifi powerstrip and Gosund smart plugs -- her home and devices now remind or force me to go to bed when she should&lt;/li&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;Carman loves the idea of SNL's Duolingo for Talking to Children as a concept, and that Duolingo is Pittsburgh's first unicorn&lt;/li&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;Uncle Crappy is ready to cut the cord and not miss any of his sports with Hulu and ESPN+&lt;/li&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;Dudders likes the new Snapchat cat detecting feature!&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;We look back at our 2019 predictions&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;We make predictions for 2020!

&lt;ul&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;Carman: Jeff Bezos will recruit more porch pirates to help sell Ring Doorbells.&lt;/li&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;Crappy: We are NOT ready for a secure presidential election.&lt;/li&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;Cynthia: Playstation and Xbox console launches will be duds&lt;/li&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;Dudders: Zuckerberg sells FB. He’s all eff this noise&lt;/li&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;Chilla: PC sales will plummet&lt;/li&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;Sorg: Continued growth of alternative shopping methods. Displacing or moving workers ie. AmazonGo, Self Check outs pushing employees for pickups and grocery delivery, etc.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;br&gt;
