The Vergecast 031 - 05.24.2012 | Another episode of the Vergecast has been committed to record. As usual, the show started flawlessly — except that Nilay arrived late to the show even though we had it on good authority that he was right outside. The guys had a long discussion about Paul's trip to Citi Field, and we learned something we already knew — namely, that Josh was raised Jewish. It was an awesome time, so stay a while and listen. 00:08:30 - Against the future: inside the Jewish anti-internet rally 00:23:10 - "Safe is bad" Andrew Keen on digital vertigo 00:44:30 - Oracle v Google Story Stream 00:51:45 - Google completes acquisition of Motorola Mobility, CEO Sanjay Jha replaced by Dennis Woodside 01:06:08 - The next iPhone: what we know so far Download MP3 (63.8MB) Subscribe to the podcast (iTunes) Subscribe to the podcast (Zune) Subscribe to the podcast (RSS) Video: <img src='/images/manage/video-placeholder.png' width=560 height=315 class='mceItemFlash' embed_src='<object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" id="ooyalaPlayer_8srwy_h2nlqv22" width="560" height="315" codebase="http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/swflash.cab"><param name="movie" value="http://player.ooyala.com/player.swf?embedCode=VzeGl0NDqO1-5Ba6NBYxekgL6flIWRir&version=2" /><param name="bgcolor" value="#000000" /><param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always" /><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param name="flashvars" value="embedType=noscriptObjectTag&embedCode=VzeGl0NDqO1-5Ba6NBYxekgL6flIWRir&videoPcode=ppbnY65tdYh_HxFfIkVstq2Iq_oQ" /><embed src="http://player.ooyala.com/player.swf?embedCode=VzeGl0NDqO1-5Ba6NBYxekgL6flIWRir&version=2" mce_src="http://player.ooyala.com/player.swf?embedCode=VzeGl0NDqO1-5Ba6NBYxekgL6flIWRir&version=2" bgcolor="#000000" width="560" height="315" name="ooyalaPlayer_8srwy_h2nlqv22" align="middle" play="true" loop="false" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" flashvars="&embedCode=VzeGl0NDqO1-5Ba6NBYxekgL6flIWRir&videoPcode=ppbnY65tdYh_HxFfIkVstq2Iq_oQ" pluginspage="http://www.adobe.com/go/getflashplayer"></embed></object> ' /> | 25 5 12 | Free | View In iTunes |

The Vergecast 030 - 05.11.2012 | As pre-millenials, The Vergecasters are ancient enough to remember when an IM was no more ruthless than a little yellow man that said "ding" a lot through a crusty ol' 2400-baud Sportster.

The Vergecast 028 - 04.27.2012 | If you're anything like the Vergecasters, you've had a gaping gavel-sized hole in your heart since the final episode of Law & Order: Orbach Originals was sentenced to death two years ago. And, if you're more than just a little bit like the Vergecasters, you were relying on 2012's Game of Codes: The Goöraculan Chronicles to be engaging enough to cauterize that hole long enough to pen the grisly fan fiction screenplay that would finally fuse the two courtroom dramas in a perpetually dismal yet never dull union in the center of the love triangle of technology, crime, and reality television. If you're a lot like the Vergecasters, the cautery iron was brought within millidegrees of thermal utility by the fiery, populist early testimony of Larry Page only to be plunged into the numbingly dull ice bucket of paperwork / technicality-driven plot twists that would never hack it in prime time. If you are the Vergecasters, the wound still gapes, you got sick and tired of being sick and tired, and now you're busy enjoying your twenty-eighth gin & tonic on the maiden voyage of the vessel Arkyd and will be Vergecasting from the bottom of a strip mine on Ceres if the Wi-Fi at the Planetary Resources Starbucks can handle it. Smell ya later, earth-wads. 00:03:30 - Google Docs now redirects to Google Drive 00:08:45 - Chrome OS to fully integrate Google Drive 00:09:30 - Google Drive vs. Dropbox, SkyDrive, SugarSync, and others: a cloud sync storage face-off 00:25:25 - This is Aura: hands-on with the latest version of Chrome OS 00:32:30 - Is Google Drive worse for privacy than iCloud, Skydrive, and Dropbox? 00:49:25 - Asteroid mining company Planetary Resources details plans for space resource hunt 00:50:35 - Asteroid mining company Planetary Resources to launch first 'Arkyd' spaceship within 24 months 01:12:39 - The Oracle vs. Google trial: updates, analysis, testimony, and more 01:30:20 - This was the original 'Google Phone' presented in 2006 01:34:00 - Android in early 2007 looked very different than it does today 01:37:45 - On The Verge returns Friday with Tony Fadell and Chris Grant!

The Vergecast 027 - 04.20.2012 | The Vergecasters survive the Vergecast's 27th birthday in style with a two-hour celebration that includes visits from Jim Belushi, the Google Glass Girl, and a newly-discovered adolescent specimen of the quickly-evolving Goöracluan race not-so-subtly disguised as a door-to-door matter generator salesman. 00:04:40 - Sources: current Windows Phone devices will not get 'Apollo' upgrade 00:08:50 - Microsoft developer evangelist retracts claim that Mango devices will get Apollo 00:17:00 - Nokia reports €1.3b operating loss for Q1 2012, sells half as many smartphones as last year 00:18:30 - Nokia's Operation Rolling Thunder starts with a whimper 00:35:20 - Windows on ARM officially named 'Windows RT,' joins Windows 8, Windows 8 Pro, and Windows 8 Enterprise 00:48:50 - Google, Oracle and Java: from a patent spat to a copyright conundrum 00:50:45 - Larry Page: Android isn't critical, it's a delivery vehicle for Google services 00:55:00 - Larry Page on the stand in Oracle trial: 'We didn't do anything wrong' 01:07:02 - T-Mobile's Carly trades dresses for a Ducati in company-wide 'brand refresh' 01:12:50 - Concept iida smartphone design from KDDI has 'luxury' analog clock 01:23:50 - Space Shuttle Discovery retires to the Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum Download MP3 (62.1 mb) Subscribe to the podcast (iTunes) Subscribe to the podcast (Zune) Subscribe to the podcast (RSS) Video: | 20 4 12 | Free | View In iTunes |

The Vergecast 025 - 04.06.2012 | Do you know how you can tell this Vergecast is sponsored by The Living Trust of Jerry Garcia and/or Phish and/or Widespread? Because you can click on these links and read the articles at home; sure, and you know what, there's really nothing wrong with that. They're great articles. But there is simply NOTHING that approaches hearing the 2-hour extended hypermix of "Lumia" into "Project Glass" at Vergecast 025 and you know the Vergecasters will never do it quite like that ever again. You really can't even explain it in any sort of content management system that exists today, is how good it is, is all we're saying. 00:02:30 - PlayStation 4 'Orbis' chipset based on current-gen AMD A8 CPU and Radeon HD 7670 graphics? 00:11:00 - HTC One X review 00:12:55 - HTC One S review 00:18:17 - HTC Evo 4G LTE is Sprint's first handset with HD voice, pre-orders start May 7th for $199.99 00:35:00 - Lumia 900 review 01:58:10 - Google's Project Glass heads up display: science fiction you can wear 02:03:15 - Instagram for Android, from development to 1 million downloads 02:05:00 - Instagram for Android breaks 1 million downloads in less than a day Download MP3 (80.3 mb) Subscribe to the podcast (iTunes) Subscribe to the podcast (Zune) Subscribe to the podcast (RSS) Video: | 6 4 12 | Free | View In iTunes |

The Vergecast 023 - 03.23.2012 | Two score and fifteen years ago, long before they were Vergecasters, the Vergecasters were taking a lunch meeting during nursery school in the coolest, most blinged-out crib in the whole nursery school. In between bouts of teething on his My First Sony, Paul struck up a conversation about how much he had enjoyed that Sunday's edition of Car Talk. "I just learned so much from Click And Clack, the Tappet Brothers, about why my Cozy Coupe II gives me trouble when I'm trying to engage the parking break on an incline. And the callers! Such a diverse, spirited crowd — brought together by their love of the road!" "Hear hear," cooed Lil' Nilay, "it would be so sick if one day us three best baby friends had a television or other sort of broadcast platform from which we could discuss our favorite topics with a dignified and knowledgeable audience." Josh took a moment to drop his sippy cup full of Diet Coke and give the other two an omniscient high-five: it's the Vergecast. 00:05:30 - 'This American Life' retracts episode about Foxconn's iPad factories, says it was 'partially fabricated' 00:14:00 - NYT removes disputed Foxconn details from Mike Daisey op-ed in wake of 'This American Life' retraction 00:43:35 - Beats buys MOG music streaming service 01:20:04 - Tests show new iPad runs 9.6 degrees Fahrenheit hotter than iPad 2 01:27:48 - Samsung China president says Galaxy S III launch may be moved up from May to April Download MP3 (59.2 mb) Subscribe to the podcast (iTunes) Subscribe to the podcast (Zune) Subscribe to the podcast (RSS) Video: Brought to you by: | 23 3 12 | Free | View In iTunes |

The Vergecast 022 - 03.16.2012 | Dusty and darkened by his 1,700-mile journey on horseback from the heart of Texas, Gonzo Journalist 3.0 Nilay Patel rolls his Retina Crystal Ball from its repurposed velveteen Crown Royal satchel onto the Vergecast studio conference coffee table. His abilities enhanced by a half a vodka-soda, Media Theoritician Joshua Topolsky gazes deep into its almost-too-real surface, failing to notice it's sticky with day-old margarita juice and unsavory bits of dried salsa. As he swipes, pinches, and zooms nimbly in the airspace around the orb, JT communicates a fantastical vision of the present from deep within the darkest corner of its fourth core: an era free of the feudal shackles of FM frequencies, the print edition of the New York Post, and the cantankerous media tastemakers and oligarchs who once held so much influence over the populous. Peering up above his reading glasses from the Ba-Bl section of his recently-hyperinflated Encyclopedia Britannica, Dubious Sage Paul Miller wonders what can possibly come next. Not so shockingly, it's the future: one where all citizens exist in a fat green cloud, joyfully passing bits, bytes, kilobytes, and pagesix.com links directly to their Fave Five Friends upon tiny Napster- and KaZaA-branded puffs of cumulonimbus. Jarringly, the sphere momentarily flashes in a spinning beach ball animation, then goes dark. And Nilay seems to have left his charging cradle down south. You could cut the air with a RAZR: it's the Vergecast. 02:19 - New iPad review (Check out our iPad review) 15:00 - New iPad apps up to five times larger than their predecessors 29:30 - Apple TV review (2012) 47:45 - Spotify on the future of streaming music: 'We want to cannibalize piracy' 48:30 - Rdio takes Spotify head on, revamps web and apps for speed and social Download MP3 (52.2 mb) Subscribe to the podcast (iTunes) Subscribe to the podcast (Zune) Subscribe to the podcast (RSS) Video: Brought to you by: | 16 3 12 | Free | View In iTunes |

Bieber's "Under the Mistletoe" on your front porch in the freezing rain. What do you do? RELAX... with the Vergecast.

The good, good old stuff that he needs a telescoping ladder to get to. The urn has an ancient The Verge logo on it. He gently sets three Swarovski snifters on his great-grandfather's red oak inlay card table, hacks three formidable chunks from This is my next Ice Block, and uses his great-great-grandfather's iTongs to clink the chunks deliberately into the snifters. Paul and Nilay glance at each other knowingly. The tape recorder clicks on. Then, a knock at the door: a feminine outline, with three laptops under each arm.

Can't wait :)
If this is anything like their old podcasts then it's gonna be great! Can't wait....
This Podcast is the 21st Century equivalent of E.T. coming back to life at the end of the movie.
I'm wearing a red hoodie and have an ipod full of old Engadget podcasts stuck on the front of my BMX.
Chapters please
Glad to see the old team back together. But it would be nice to have the podcast chopped into chapters like the old Engadget one did. It's hard to navigate a podcast this long without chapters.
