You know those weeks where you're like, "hey - what if we didn't have a weekly podcast eating up half a day in production time? Can you imagine the kind of boost our review coverage could get from that time?"

Yeah, us either. Because this is the Pocketnow Weekly, and we're not breaking our perfect streak a month before our hundredth episode. This is podcasting, Jack. Serious business. We've even got us an EXPLICIT tag to prove it. We ain't playin' around.

In this week's installment of the world's most meandering tech podcast, hot news! HTC dodges a big bass-boosted bullet with their divestiture of Beats Audio, but not to worry: Apple's been ready and waiting to dive right on top of that big bag of bunk. We'll talk about that, and about our intense feature and review coverage already underway on one of the world's highest-end smartphones, as well as increasingly hot rumors from LG, Motorola, and even Microsoft. All that, plus a hearty helping of Joe Levi's tech wisdom in your (very specific) listener mail on episode 095 of the Pocketnow Weekly! So dive on down and get to listening; like 90s-era ABC always said, "it's Friday night, and the mood is right. Gonna have some fun, show you how it's done: Pocket-now-Week-ly."

Enough nonsense. Go listen. Send feedback, questions, and requests to podcast [AT] pocketnow [DOT] com. Follow us on Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, Google Plus to stay apprised of the latest episodes.

Music

The Pocketnow Weekly's transition music (the track used between its News and Feature segments on some episodes) is a track called "Radiation" from the talented Ali Spagnola.

You may recognize the tune as one of the preloaded ringtones from your Nexus S, Galaxy Nexus, or Nexus 4 - but it's a real song, from a real album. You can download that album, along with many others, at Ali's website here: alispagnola.com

... or visit her YouTube page here: youtube.com/alispags
