Description

Usually I start these posts by apologizing, but ya know... by now I think you know what you’ve gotten yourself into — unless this is your first episode. So great! Hey! We’ve got a great show for you! (This is a podcast.) Nilay Patel, Dieter Bohn, Ross Miller, and Paul Miller (no relation) compiled a list of things from our cherished website TheVerge.com and dug a little deeper, with different angles, viewpoints, and behind-the-scenes journalistic insight.

We’ve got more time with the Nintendo Switch than we did last week (even a taste test), a roundup of MWC announcements from over the weekend, and tons of little stories. I’m sure there’s a bunch of stuff you missed because of the Amazon web server disruption since those four hours were the only time you get your news.

03:04 - Nintendo Switch review: pure potential

14:05 - The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild review

21:33 - Amazon’s web servers are back online after more than four hours of disruption

24:34 - Samsung Galaxy S8 leaks in its full glory and The BlackBerry KeyOne resurrects the keyboard with style

30:08 - Google Assistant begins huge expansion across Android devices today

38:05 - 5G: Super fast data, throttled by reality

41:10 - The next iPhone won’t switch to USB-C, but its cable likely will

49:32 - Paul’s weekly segment “Hey look at me now”

51:55 - FCC chairman says net neutrality was a mistake

58:40 - YouTube launches its own streaming TV service

1:02:20 - Amazon is working on its own home security camera

1:03:47 - Spotify is preparing to launch a Hi-Fi music tier
