Let Andy and Flo carry you into the holiday week (if you're in the United States) with musings about their favorite holiday traditions. Then, we'll discuss how Google could set a precedent for Silicon Valley by allowing its workers to unionize and why the company has taken an interest in a new coalition to construct a nine-point "Contract For The Web." We'll also touch upon the messy Stadia launch, the tease of Ambient Mode for smartphones, and why you absolutely should not buy out a retailer's leftover stock of cheap Chromebooks on Black Friday.
