Getting back on the horse. Getting back into the groove. Getting the warp core back on-line. However you phrase it, getting back on-track is exactly what we're doing on this week's podcast, settling back into the studio chairs after over a week in Barcelona handling the hottest mobile technology (and podcasting from unconventional venues).

On this week's episode, we're paid a special visit by someone we've heard from before – but he's fresh from his very first Apple experience and full of not only Apple Watch knowledge ... but new perspective on covering one of the industry's most famously stingy stalwarts. Also: Microsoft continues its efforts to spread itself across every platform imaginable, new hardware rumors continue to trickle from giants HTC and LG, and listeners put us in a Tough Spot –in more ways than one– with some excellent emails!

All of the above, plus the usual bevy of bad jokes, lies ahead: join us, won't you? Pocketnow Weekly 139 is waiting for your participation –either through the live video stream at 12:30pm Eastern on March 13 (click here for your local time), or the high-quality audio version available later on here (/2015/03/13/apple-watch-hands-on-pocketnow-weekly) – and shoot your questions to podcast [AT] pocketnow [DOT] com for a shot at getting your question read aloud on the air. See you then!

The Pocketnow Weekly is brought to you by the LD WEST Original Holster – a stylish, functional, and secure solution to a problem we all face daily. The suspender-style holster is a one-size-fits-all accessory that cradles your phone under your right arm and your wallet under the left, making it fast and easy to get to either one whether you're standing up or sitting down. Every LD WEST Original comes with a richly detailed wallet and a phone pouch in either small, medium, or large size, available in one of five colors (brown, red, black, tan, or gray). It's available exclusively at LD WEST for $119.99 US. So solve your phone-bulge problem and look pretty cool doing it: pick up an LD WEST Original holster today: ldwest.com
