Engadget Mobile Podcast 199 - 1.31.14
With a couple big mobile news items dropping this week, it's no surprise that Brad makes a beeline for those topics, and he enlists Engadget newcomers Chris Velazco and Emily Price to join him. With Lenovo's recent acquisition of Motorola's handset division and Google's renewed bipartisanship with Samsung, there's certainly a lot to discuss. Along with the regular mobile fare, we treat you to one car chase, more Ashton Kutcher than you'd probably like and a tale of rare, yet spam-inducing social monikers. Please join us at the streaming links below for episode 199 of the Engadget Mobile Podcast.

It's been a hot second, but we're back with your host Brad Molen and guest Myriam Joire for a year-in-review episode. It's been a wild ride with Qualcomm's Snapdragon 800 picking up the processing pace, Motorola joining the smartphone market with renewed vigor and John Legere's refusal to let crazy get in the way of good ideas. Those on a budget could get quality in more ways than one and if the sky was the limit, you could get that too. And yes, Moto G received a KitKat update, but we didn't notice since it arrived while we were busy recording this amazing podcast just for you! So, if everyone's in, the Engadget Mobile Podcast is about to begin -- whenever you're ready, of course.

We hope you didn't wear out your sweet tooth this Halloween, because our host Brad Molen is joined by Android and Me's Taylor Wimberly for a big bite of Android 4.4 KitKat.

While lots of early adopters are eagerly waiting by the mailbox for their Google delivery, Brad humbly admits to already having scored both the black and white versions to take for spin. Not only that, but Taylor is a bona fide Ara Scout and discusses the potential of Project Ara's modular phone concept.

Engadget Mobile Podcast 190: Myriam's farewell - 09.27.13
This is it: Myriam Joire's last time serving as the host of the Mobile Podcast. If you haven't heard the news, she's taken a sweet gig as Product Evangelist for wearables startup, Pebble. We wish Myriam all the best on the new venture and expect it won't be the last time you'll hear from her on this front. Our main man, "all-around rock star" and current co-host, Brad Molen, officially takes the lead position next week. So, don't worry -- this podcast will continue to live on and remain awesome as ever. Salutations all around.

If you haven't already heard the news, our very own Myriam Joire won't be "our very own" much longer, as she has accepted a position with Pebble. Since this is her last week on the staff, this will be her final podcast as a co-host; don't worry, she'll still be back from time to time in a guest capacity, but if you're awake, you won't want to miss this week's episode before she moves on to the wearables frontier.
