Tired of all the DROID talk? Well, tough cookies, mister. Nilay, Paul and Josh have a lot to say on the subject, and you're just going to have to sit there and take it. Or you could skip the first 40 minutes of this week's podcast, but that's just a recipe for regret. If you do stick it out you'll be treated to some unusually candid discussion of Josh's facial hair and other more pertinent questions picked from the USTREAM discussion that will almost certainly frighten you straight.

WARNING: This podcast has been known to kill people. Engadget assumes no responsibility for injury or death.

Everyone all strapped in? Okay, take a deep breath. Now exhale....slowly. It's the Engadget Podcast. Just what you need after a tense week of work, school, and being extremely worried about a boy who was not actually trapped in a killer spaceship balloon. Instead, join Josh, Paul and Nilay as they break down the week in news, starting with the Sidekick situation and cruising past the Motorola CLIQ, the BlackBerry Storm 2, Walt Mossberg's disregard for anything not the iPhone, and wrapping up with the rumored Barnes and Noble ebook reader and the runup to Windows 7.

With the crazy week of news we've had, never has the ever-insightful, industry-encompassing commentary of the Engadget Podcast been so necessary, so vital, so... vigorous. Sure, you could try to make your way through the launch of Windows Mobile 6.5 and an onslaught of Android news all by yourself, but then you'd just be alone and sad. And who would be there to comfort and hold you and tell you how terribly overpriced the VAIO X is and how little Dell revealed about its new Adamo this week? Nobody, that's who. Don't be another statistic, slip on some relatively comfortable earbuds and come on over to the Podcast side.
