Engadget Podcast 298 - 06.15.2012

Stop! Fanboys, what's that sound? Well, we're not sure, actually, but a couple of things we know that sound isn't are Brian Heater, an optical drive, and a Vertu phone. If you asked us we might tell you it sounds kind of like an HD Big Mouth Bass hanging from the wall in an undisclosed location. But yeah, we're not sure, so you'll just have to listen for yourself and see where the Engadget Podcast takes you. You won't be disappointed. Probably.
