It's a cold day in you know where when our two mobile editors are lost for words. If you thought this week might be any different, think again. If anything, a brief hiatus means they're literally finding words just for the show. Inscrupilous of them, we know.

New phones usually enjoy a big comfortable seat in the limelight when they land. This week, however, there's a lot less elbow room thanks to the recent deluge. But, despite much more muscular competition, that cheeky Asha 210, still manages to get in there first. Enjoy the show.

If life were a pop quiz, our mobile editors would surely ace the cellphone round. However, Myriam might do well to consider ditching Brad when it comes to the Star Trek section. Those who want to take his place, tune in for the question to see if you know better. Post your answers directly to Brad.

Home is where the heart is. No doubt that's a sentiment we're sure Facebook would likely agree with. What, however, do our trusty mobile editors think on the social networks latest mobile offering?

This week saw the dawn of a new era. Was it T-Mobile's new twist on cell plans? Sure, that was interesting. But, we were more thinking John Legere's colorful presentation style. Way to get our attention! Most of all, thanks for the bulk of this week's mobile podcast. Enjoy.

It's not what you do, it's how you do it. Or, at least that's the sentiment this week. Samsung's Galaxy S 4 is raising eyebrows with the mobile crew, and not entirely in the good way. There are musings on the future of Chrome and Android, plus (an attempted) discussion on Sony's latest mobile offerings. You know the drill.

M7! M7! M7!, HTC One! HTC One! Whichever we're chanting this week, the mobile team is getting pretty hyped about the next Android darling from Peter Chou's brigade.

Myriam and Brad are back, tentacles and octacores in tow. This week we're covering everything from Firefox phones to leaked HTC 5 Sense screenshots, but there's also an Elephant in the vocal booths: the imminent BlackBerry 10 launch. Best of all, Brad's officially renounced the term "phablet" much to Myriam's delight -- seriously, y'all, it's just a big phone. (Is it really, though?) All that and more awaits you in episode 167 of the Engadget Mobile Podcast below.

Yeah, we had two podcasts during CES, but that doesn't mean we're done with it just yet. Still sleep-deprived and filled with excitement from the show floor, it's time to catch up on the tech we didn't get a chance to discuss -- and the stuff we couldn't get enough of. Is octa-core really CPU related or a villain from the world of Batman? Is Samsung's Youm a new dessert or some exciting flexible display technology? Is T-Mobile poised to conquer the mobile realm this year? Most importantly, is everything that happened prior to CES officially a blur for Myriam and Brad? You'll just have to tune in to find out!

How many tech bloggers does it take to change an eco-system? Well, if this week's mobile podcast is anything to go by, the answer might be three. There's a definite whiff of revolution in the air, and no corner of the mobiverse is safe. Raise the flag, adorn your colors, strap up them boots, hit play and take cover. You have been warned.

Last week, it's fair to say that the carriers got a bit of a bashing. This week, however, there's a little love. Just a little. Mainly there's a lot of talk about dumb pipes, octa-core (or is that octopus?) phones and some new gear from RIM, Oppo and YotaPhone. All in under two hours. Just barely.

Carriers... listen up. This one's for you. Thinking about slapping some garish branding on your latest smartphone? Maybe on a button? Or, contemplating some bloatware? Yeah, you know who you are, and so do Myriam and Brad. Some things are just better left untouched.
