Some TMI follow-up from last weeks episode. We touch on the obligatory potato salad story. Brian doesn’t even gloat about the Germany win. We dish on some books and software. A little disruption sneaks in too.

This week's show is a work in progress and we were strapped for time so our new bumpers are pretty rough. All apologies. Otherwise, we make more fun of Yo!, Google I/O, Android "L"oser, and toss in some productivity talk.

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.
