It’s time. The public betas for iOS 26, iPadOS 26, macOS 26, and more are finally out for everyone to try. Jake Kastrenakes, Vee Song, and Antonio G. Di Benedetto open the show by talking about their takes on Apple’s Liquid Glass design language after two months of living with it. Antonio shares his experiences with macOS and the upgraded Spotlight, and Vee dives into the ups and downs of watchOS’s AI fitness coach. Then, Andy Hawkins and Eater lead editor for Southern California/Southwest Matthew Kang join the show to talk about Tesla’s rough quarter, the new Tesla Diner, and what Epic Bacon has to do with it all. #Vergecast #Podcast 00:00 Intro 00:19 Special Guests and Topics Overview 00:43 Apple's Big Week 01:23 Liquid Glass: The New Design Controversy 01:43 Apple Developer Beta Woes 04:10 Liquid Glass on Different Devices 21:00 MacOS Updates: Spotlight and More 30:48 WatchOS 26: The New Fitness Coach 35:04 Fitness AI: Expectations vs. Reality 36:08 WatchOS 26: New Features and Improvements 37:35 iPadOS Updates: Floating Windows and More 41:21 Tesla's New Diner 01:08:54 Lightning Round 01:10:29 Introducing the FX Super One 01:12:35 The Practicality and Decline of Minivans 01:13:29 Faraday Future: A Company with Questionable Decisions 01:15:15 Amazon Acquires AI Wearable Bee 01:20:38 AppleCare One 01:26:02 Uber's New Feature 01:31:51 The Labubu Craze 01:37:49 Conclusion and Announcements Subscribe: http://goo.gl/G5RXGs Like The Verge on Facebook: https://goo.gl/2P1aGc Follow on Twitter: https://goo.gl/XTWX61 Follow on Instagram: https://goo.gl/7ZeLvX Follow on TikTok: http://bit.ly/42VeCVU Watch The Vergecast on YouTube: https://bit.ly/40RFRkg The Vergecast Podcast: https://bit.ly/3WQDexZ Decoder with Nilay Patel: http://apple.co/3v29nDc More about our podcasts: https://www.theverge.com/podcasts Read More: http://www.theverge.com Community guidelines: http://bit.ly/2D0hlAv Wallpapers from The Verge: https://bit.ly/2xQXYJr Shop our Verge merch store here: https://bit.ly/4kPCmEc Subscribe to The Verge: https://bit.ly/3FT6n5S Subscribe to The Vergecast on YouTube, new episodes on Tuesday and Friday: https://bit.ly/3I6nJtz If you buy something from a Verge link, Vox Media may receive a commission without exerting any influence on editorial content.
