Our flagship show, The Vergecast, is where our editors make sense of the week's most important technology news every wednesday and friday. Editors discussing the week in tech news with the reporters and editors covering the biggest stories on Friday.

The crew talks about the battle between the vertical video apps, the Android 13 update, and a lot of tech news.

The newer Pixel phones are able to upgrade to the newer version of the operating system. Why this is an update for Snow Leopard, how it affects the phone world, and whether an update like this will convince users to switch to another operating system are some of the topics discussed in the show.

The topic is shifted to social video apps later on. You can't post your content in other video apps if they try to shame you or prevent you from doing so. The crew talks about how people might react to the increasing limitation of creation tools and distribution.

There is a lot more discussed in the show, so if you want to listen to the full discussion, you can do it here.
