There’s a lot of gadget news this week! But we begin the show in an unprecedented way: with a bit of Brendan Carr is a Dummy, America’s favorite podcast within a podcast. Nilay pops on the show to discuss what happened to Jimmy Kimmel, why the FCC’s assault on speech is so dangerous, and why a couple of broadcast TV companies matter so much to the story. After that, Jake Kastrenakes and Richard Lawler join to talk about all of Meta’s new smart glasses, including the company’s first pair with a built-in display. Finally, in the lightning round, we talk about Reddit’s new AI deal with Google, Nvidia’s new chip deal with Intel, and Samsung’s terrible plan to put ads on your fridge. #Podcast #Vergecast #Technology 0:00 Brendan Carr is a Dummy Special Update 0:32 Baby Updates and Parenting Life 1:10 FCC and Government Control Over Media 4:27 The Impact of Media Consolidation 7:15 The Future of Broadcast and Digital Media 9:32 Brendan Carr's Controversial Actions 25:17 Meta's New Smart Glasses and Tech Innovations 44:47 The Future of Smart Glasses 46:25 Meta's Oakley Meta Vanguard: A Game Changer? 52:03 Mainstream RayBan Smart Glasses 55:47 The Challenges of Live AI Demos 1:05:53 Reddit's Power Play with Google 1:10:51 The TikTok Saga Continues 1:15:30 Qualcomm's Name Crime and Nothing Ear 3 1:18:43 YouTube's Dynamic Ads and Shopping Channel 1:22:16 Nvidia and Intel's Strategic Partnership 1:25:44 Samsung's Fridge Ads Controversy 1:30:15 Conclusion 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.
