December 24, 2009 The 404 Yuletide Mini-sode: Where we have fond memories of 2009

Show summary: It's hard to believe that 2009 has already come and gone, but with the holidays over and 2010 around the corner, we've decided to record a special wrap-up episode to finish off the year. Lots of big changes that happened in the past twelve months, but the most momentous for the show has to be the introduction of the Tricaster and the subsequent evolution into a full-fledged video show. Of course, we have to thank Jason Howell, the man behind all the CNET Podcasts who helped us set up and troubleshoot our new equipment.

December 17, 2009 Mark Licea blooper reel 2009

December 17, 2009 Ep: 489: Where our drones got hacked

Show summary: Things are certainly winding down here at the CNET New York offices as The 404 finishes up its last two live episodes for the year. In the studio with us today is Natali Del Conte along with her CBS producer Will--so it sounds like the show is about to get some Early Show love on Friday morning!

December 16, 2009 Ep. 488: Where we now offer free Wi-Fi--with the purchase of a Happy Meal

Show summary: This may be the last week of live 404 episodes, and it's also been the most hectic. With Wilson missing his second day in a row and Caroline McCarthy being bedridden by a holiday cold, Mark Licea and Bonnie Cha help me hold down the fort.

December 15, 2009 Ep. 487: Where even we can win a Golden Globe this year

December 14, 2009 Ep. 486: Where Bonnie is not Nicole

Show summary: Bonnie Cha, senior editor for cell phones, joins the show today to fill in for Justin Yu. It's one of the few days Wilson and Jeff aren't worried about losing their jobs for something they shouldn't have said. And no, she is NOT Nicole Lee. What better day to have Ms. Cha on the show than following the weekend that the actual Google phone leaks!
