We round up all the coolest CES news in this episode. Despite James’ downer attitude last week, CES proves that the future is bright, smart, and automated. The show notes below contain a huge laundry list of all the different products Matthew looked into. And yes, we talk about every single one. Think of this show like CES: a whirlwind of stories that’ll be mostly forgotten in a month.
We come to an inescapable conclusion in this episode: Elon Musk is a Super Villain. Think about it. He’s publicly stated that humanity will die in 20 years. He’s working on his own escape to another planet. And he’s creating autonomous robots (cars) that look sleek and people inherently trust. This is how it happens people!
In this cut, we talk about what we think will happen in 2014.

Unapologetically Apple. Like any good Furlo Bros episode after an Apple event, we go to great lengths to cover everything and anything related to Apple. We dissect each phone and gush over how great Apple is.
We do also manage to mention Sony’s PS Vita TV, Dell billion dollar buyout, Twitter’s IPO announcement, McDonald’s mobile app, TechCrunch Disrupt winners Layer and Dryft, and Microsoft’s Windows 8.1 woes.
