Subscribe to Techathlon wherever you get podcasts! http://pops.ci/techathlon

Hey Last Week in Tech fans! You may have noticed this feed has been a little quiet over the last few months. That's because we've been working on a new podcast called Techathlon. It's all the tech news you know and love from the LWIT crew, but reformatted as games, trivia, and (mostly) friendly competitions. You're about to hear the first episode—if you like it, subscribe to Techathlon wherever you get podcasts. Enjoy!

Introducing Techathlon: Our New Podcast!

Here in the Popular Science office, we could talk about tech all day. Every week has new products, events, and controversies to cover. However, our boss says that if we’re going to sit around talking technology, we had to “make some content,” and thus, this tech podcast was born.

Every week, we’ll take a look at the biggest stories from new gadgets releases to overarching topics like artificial intelligence to virtual reality and beyond. Check out a new episode every Monday and email us questions, suggestions, or unabashed compliments at LWIT@popsci.com or tweet us https://www.twitter.com/LastWeekInTech.
