Skipping listener mail for two weeks in a row? We know, we know … unconscionable. But we also know you’ll forgive us in exchange for two things: a packed review schedule, and an awesome podcast guest. We’re bringing you both of those as the week winds down to a close.

MWC 2014 is already upon us, with Anton D. Nagy and Jaime Rivera hitting the ground in Barcelona just as this podcast goes under the mic, and we’re here to bring you mobile mavens all the pre-show rumor and speculation that you’ve come to expect.
