James McLean and Christian Cawley reconvene this week to discuss the events surrounding Amazon's purchase of Eon, and the resulting rumours.

What is the Podcasthon?
James and Christian were approached to take part in the Podcasthon some weeks ago, and thought it was a great thing to do. Each podcast taking part selects a charity (ours is CentrePoint), and records a podcast specifically for the event. The Podcasthon team then use social media to spot our tagging of the podcast, and share it, and the drive raises awareness of all the charities selected by the podcasters.
Originally a French-language "athon", the Podcasthon is being done by hundreds of podcasts this year, and we're in very esteemed company, so we've tried to behave. As this is a special podcast, the Spotify/Apple version will be identical this week.
