We hope that you've gotten your Sell-Side Technology Awards submissions in, or plan on doing so within the next few hours, because the site will close by the end of day, today, New York-time.

For this week's Waters Wavelength podcast, Dan DeFrancesco and Anthony Malakian discuss the recent dispute between the FBI and Apple over unlocking the phone of one of the San Bernardino shooters; the possibility of a merger between London Stock Exchange Group and Deutsche Börse; and they wrap things up by talking about some of their favorite current television shows, including "Billions", "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia", "Archer" and "House of Cards".
