A rare treat this week as you can hear the TechCrunch team react to breaking gadget news (the Steam Controller , to be specific) live as it unfolds. It’s like being inside our brains without the echoes and cobwebs. We also cover the big Surface 2 reveal, Steam OS , the Steam Box announcements , Adobe’s Mighty hardware  and BlackBerry’s very bad quarter . This week, we have a very special episode of the Gadgets Podcast with a ragtag team of lovable characters, including myself — Darrell Etherington  — Chris Velazco and special guests Frederic Lardinois and TCTV Producer Steve Long , so you just know it’s going to be the heartwarming comeback story of a lifetime.
