Alarm clock. Snooze. Alarm clock. Snooze. Alarm clock. Snooze. Alarm clock. Snooze. Alarm clock. Snooze. Alarm clock. Snooze. Alarm clock. Snooze. Alarm clock. Snooze. Alarm clock. Snooze.

The week is almsot over, and CES is on the v-... erm, on the cusp of dying down. It's about time to look to the future — not just of CES 2013 but of the industry as a whole. Months, years, decades, centuries into the future. We'll get to that eventually. Join hosts Joshua Topolsky and Ross Miller as they break down the top stories of the day in the most relevant and irreverent way possible - and set the tone for the day(s) to come. Wake up, tune in, and have fun. This is First!

First! Episode 03: Audi, Steam Box, and Polygon's Chris Grant

It's hump day. The halfway point. The checkered flag is in sight. Time is absolutely a relative construct, because CES is less than three days old (at the most extreme estimate — technically the show floor only opened yesterday) and yet it feels like a lifetime has passed. It was a crazy first day on the floor, culminating with our sit-down with Valve's Gabe Newell over all things Steam Box — Chris Grant from Polygon will be on hand helping us pour over the Gospel according to Gaben. Join hosts Joshua Topolsky and Ross Miller as they break down the top stories of the day in the most relevant and irreverent way possible – and set the tone for the day(s) to come. Wake up, tune in, and have fun. This is First!

First! Episode 02: Qualcomm, Sony, and the future of 4K

Episode two. Dos. Deux. And yet, it's still First! Are we trapped in some kind of Abbot-and-Costello sketch? Probably, although the scene at Qualcomm last night leans closer to Dali. Confused? We'll explain all this and more at 8AM PT / 11AM ET / 4PM GMT today. Join hosts Joshua Topolsky and Ross Miller as they break down the top stories of the day in the most relevant and irreverent way possible - and set the tone for the day(s) to come.

First! Episode 01: Nvidia, Vizio, and modern cube speakers

Alarm clock. Email. Snooze. Alarm clock. Email. Toothbrush. Email. Shower. Email. Finish shower. Clothes. Email. Coffee. Email. Laptop bag. Email. Jacket... You know what would make that routine even better? First! Our CES morning show. And by morning, we're talking Las Vegas time — and since Las Vegas is the focal point of all technology news for the next week, that seems as good as any time to call it morning. (East Coasters, feel free to call it "Elevenses" for the foreseeable future.)
