  • Quick Information - Longer Editorial

    Well informed considerations about tech, the industry and its far reaching effect on culture and society. Then, shorter snippets of news in a bit seemingly sponsored by Amazon (?).

  • Digging the new format.

    Twice a day tech podcast is a good way for me to stay on top of lots of different things.I’ve been an Engadget reader for a while and it’s nice to have an audio version for my ride on the train each morning.

  • Just a guy reading press releases... badly

    If you’re looking for a daily podcast that mindlessly reads tech companies’ press releases verbatim, then this is the podcast for you. If you’re looking for thoughtful analysis or actual reporting, maybe you should look elsewhere. Like The Verge. Because the soul of Engadget is gone and this is the soleless husk of journalism.
