The Vergecast

The Vergecast is the flagship podcast from The Verge about small gadgets, Big Tech, and everything in between.

Update in format, updated review

UPDATE: what a refreshing change in format and talent. Alison Johnson is amazing, knowledgeable, can speak with authority, for example. I have listened to the vergecast from its Engadget days, through This Is My Next, to the Vergecast itself in all its iterations. This used to be a wonderful, thought provoking show, and when it wasn’t, it was fun and experimental. Alex Cranz has been instrumental in destroying the show and making sure I don’t listen to it anymore. She’s just really, really bad at this, and everyone on the show is utterly embarrassed by her. It carries over into the audience. I’m sorry, I hate doing this. I just wish they would silo her into her own show and keep her off anything to do with anything anyone would be interested in, because she just ruins every topic (even her own pet passion interests!!).
The Show is Excellent

A good round up of weekly tech news with some crazy diversions from time to time. The hosts flow nicely together and everyone is very knowledgeable about the topics covered. I always look forward to listening.
Not as enjoyable

It takes a while until you start starting your topic
Will it rise again?

The glory days are gone. This show needs to pivot or something. I thought getting rid of Alex Cranz would be a step in the right direction but so far nothing else has really changed. I get bored in the first minute during David’s intros. I know it will likely never be like it was but surely the verge can do better than this.
