Matt and Andy are talking trash, literally. Friend of the show, Andy Pinasco, has thrown down the gauntlet. Andy is pulling for a NY Jets Superbowl victory. Matt, on the other hand, is certain that the New Orleans Saints will win it all. With such differing views, you know there's a bet! The loser has to pick up garbage at a location picked by the winner, and blog about it. If neither team wins, we will both pick up trash at a location chosen by our listeners. So, the real winner is Stockton. Go Saints!

What will Apple announce next week? Rod and Matt talk about what they, and some of our listeners, think about what Apple might be announcing on January 27. Nearly all rumors point to a Mac tablet and iPhone OS 4.0. Here are some of the stories we referenced:
