Engadget Podcast 172 - 11.23.2009
It's been a crazy weekend, and we'll have the latest episode of The Engadget Show up to prove it soon enough, but for now we thought you might still be interested in the podcast we did live on Friday from within the hazy mist of show prep and Chrome OS assessment. Sure, you might not be used to getting a new podcast on a Monday morning, but we've heard that a technology podcast replete with bizarre exchanges with live audience members via chat and many vitamins and minerals can be a vital...
Engadget Podcast 171 - 11.13.2009
Hey there, web surfer. What's cracking? Us? Oh, not much, just listening to this side-splitting episode of the Engadget Podcast on our portable listening device. Yeah, it's the episode where Josh, Nilay and Paul find a purse on the sidewalk with $500 in it and debate whether or not to take it to the police or spend the money on pizza and arcade games. Or maybe they talk about gadgets. You should check it out! Alright, later on cool dude. Hosts: Joshua Topolsky, Nilay Patel, Paul Miller...

Engadget Podcast 169 - 10.31.2009
Tired of all the DROID talk? Well, tough cookies, mister. Nilay, Paul and Josh have a lot to say on the subject, and you're just going to have to sit there and take it. Or you could skip the first 40 minutes of this week's podcast, but that's just a recipe for regret. If you do stick it out you'll be treated to some unusually candid discussion of Josh's facial hair and other more pertinent questions picked from the USTREAM discussion that will almost certainly frighten you straight. WARNING:...

For this week's installment of the Engadget Podcast, we present the audio stream from our recent Engadget Show, featuring a one-on-one with Microsoft CEO, Steve Ballmer!

Engadget Podcast 167 - 10.16.2009
Everyone all strapped in? Okay, take a deep breath. Now exhale....slowly. It's the Engadget Podcast. Just what you need after a tense week of work, school, and being extremely worried about a boy who was not actually trapped in a killer spaceship balloon. Instead, join Josh, Paul and Nilay as they break down the week in news, starting with the Sidekick situation and cruising past the Motorola CLIQ, the BlackBerry Storm 2, Walt Mossberg's disregard for anything not the iPhone, and wrapping up...
Engadget Podcast 166 - 10.09.2009
With the crazy week of news we've had, never has the ever-insightful, industry-encompassing commentary of the Engadget Podcast been so necessary, so vital, so... vigorous. Sure, you could try to make your way through the launch of Windows Mobile 6.5 and an onslaught of Android news all by yourself, but then you'd just be alone and sad. And who would be there to comfort and hold you and tell you how terribly overpriced the VAIO X is and how little Dell revealed about its new Adamo this week?...
Engadget Podcast 165 - 10.02.2009
Look, an Engadget Podcast, delivered on schedule! That certainly hasn't happened in a while -- and to celebrate, the crew did another live show yesterday, running down a couple new Dell and HP laptops, some more Courier info, the PSP Go, and some phone news before a live (chat room) audience. It's all here, so get listening! Hosts: Joshua Topolsky, Nilay Patel, Paul Miller Producer: Trent Wolbe Song: California Girls Hear the podcast 00:03:34 - Dell's Latitude Z 600 is a 16-inch...

It's been a crazy week in news, and after a couple cross-country flights the podcast crew is together and ready to break it all down. Join Josh, Paul and Nilay as they take on Microsoft's Courier tablet concept and rumored Pink smartphones, dish on the HTC Leo and Windows Mobile, debate the finer points of net neutrality, and talk over the highlights from the Intel Developer Forum and the Tokyo Game Show. Yeah, there's a ton here -- grab a snack and tune in! Hosts: Joshua Topolsky, Nilay...
Engadget Podcast 163 - 09.20.2009
We're a couple days late, but the podcast is back, people. Join Josh, Paul, and Nilay as they run down another hectic week in news, including the Zune HD, some hands-on impressions of the Motorola CLIQ, and the latest in the ongoing Apple / Google saga.

Missed the live show? Hate things happening in real time? We understand exactly how you may or may not feel, and have thrown together this intense, packaged, downloadable version of the show for you to consume. It's kind of like a podcast, except with way more excitement and knowledge. The boys touched on a wide range of news week, pouring out their Snow Leopard early adopter woes and conjecturing on the future of book reading in the highly informative Sony Reader section. There's something...
Engadget Podcast 160 - 08.21.2009
They said it couldn't be done: could these three men really repeat the on-air magic they conjured during last week's live show? The internet yelled a resounding "yes!" yesterday, as Josh, Paul and Nilay chatted up the PS3 Slim and all other manner of technological trivia. Your hosts' voices charged through internet air waves and filled the hearts of those who tuned in live with irreplaceable joy as podcast history was being made. Oh, you missed it? Don't worry, we've got a static copy of the...
Engadget Podcast 159 - 08.14.2009
Get ready for a wild one, folks -- we recorded this week's Engadget Podcast with a live (chatroom) studio audience, and things got a little rowdy. Join Josh, Paul and Nilay as they run down the new Zune HD, Windows 7, two new Dell machines and three new Samsung cameras before finally -- at the urging of the crowd -- tackling the Apple tablet rumors. Definitely a fun show -- we'll have to do more like this in the future. Until then, what are you waiting for? Get downloading! Hosts: Joshua...
Engadget Podcast 158 - 08.07.2009
The gang's all here, folks! Yes, it's been a rough couple weeks apart, but Josh, Paul, and Nilay have finally managed to reunite, and Engadget Podcast 158 is the happy result. Join the boys as they take Apple to task for its recent App Store shenanigans and the dismissal of Eric Schmidt from the board of directors, pick apart the Windows 7 upgrade matrix, and then shift into cruising gear for a run to The Shack and some quick thoughts on a trio of new cameras. Yeah, it's good to be back....
Engadget Podcast 157 - 07.31.2009
Another quiet week, podcast fans -- but we were still excited by a few new toys, like the new Creative Zii EGG, the Kodak Zi8, and the Nikon D300s. We also spent some time with the new Sony Walkman X-series, which got us thinking about Sony's fortunes in this brave new world and how the company might need to change -- and speaking of change, both Apple and Palm need to rethink some of their current policies. Oh, and to top it all off, the Wall Street Journal totally whiffed that Apple-at-CES...
Engadget Podcast 156 - 07.24.2009
Look out, internet! The Engadget Podcast Audio Talking Show has arrived, complete with technical topics of discussion, talented staff members and a guest of note. Ross Rubin, an analyst with NPD and regular Engadget contributer in his Switched On column, was kind enough to drop by and talk it up with Josh and Paul about the HTC Hero and the future of ebooks -- things that weigh heavily on all of our minds. Nilay's out this week, leaving a gaping hole in all of our hearts, but we promise to...
Engadget Podcast 155 - 07.17.2009
Paul picked a pretty good week to take a well-deserved vacation -- not a lot's gone down since the podcast crew last cozied up to their microphones. There were some big announcements, though: Comcast loaded up its On Demand Online offerings with a ton of partner announcements and Palm released the Mojo SDK (and the Pre was blocked from iTunes). On top of that, we saw some more shots of that mysterious slim PS3, Microsoft announced plans to open up retail stores, and Google Chrome remained a...
Engadget Podcast 154 - 07.11.2009
The podcast is a little late this week, but for good reason -- special guest Michael Gartenberg joins Josh, Paul, and Nilay this week as they sort through the Google-dominated week in news. We've got Chrome OS, the myTouch 3G, some more HTC Hero hands-on time (as well as a Magic flashed with the Hero ROM), and the leaked Sony Ericsson Rachael on tap -- oh, and to top it all off, Sony backtracked huge and released its first true netbook, the VAIO W. It's a bit of a wild one, we won't lie --...

Engadget Podcast 152 - 06.26.2009: The Day the Music Died 2
Yes, that's the one and only MJ to open the podcast -- this one was recorded just shortly after the Engadget crew had learned the news. Join Josh, Paul, Nilay and special guest Chris Ziegler as they deny the Nokia N97, get angry at the HTC Hero, bargain with Windows 7, depress themselves over the fate of the netbook, and finally learn to accept the Zune HD's Tegra processor. We won't lie -- Engadget Podcast 152 was a struggle, but in the end we all learned a little something about life,...
Engadget Podcast 151 - 06.19.2009
It's been one hell of a month, hasn't it? New Palm phones, new iPhones, a big Kindle, that Natal thing... LL Cool J. Yes, a lot has happened in the past few weeks, and it's tough to contain all of that activity inside one teensy podcast -- but we've tried. Join Josh, Paul, and Nilay for another adventurous adventure through time, space, and love as they explore the deeper meanings of the cosmos, the universe, and consumer facing gadgetry. If you don't love the way you feel after listening to...
Engadget Podcast 150 - 06.12.2009
It's the big one-five-zero, people, and you know what that means: absolutely nothing. We've got news to talk about, after all -- we'll leave the extensive accolades and embarrassing praise for the history books. If you hadn't guessed, this week's show is a bit heavy on the Apple sauce, so the squeamish should turn away before it's too late. Those inclined, however, to dive into MacBook SKUs and wax philosophical about the iPhone as a platform will likely get their money's worth. It'll be...
Engadget Podcast 149 - 06.05.2009
As you may soon become aware, this week's podcast is about two hours long. Now, we're aware that this might present a difficult scenario for those of you who like to rent out a sensory deprivation room every week to maximize the experience of listening to Josh, Nilay and Paul babble, so here are some usage ideas for this "wild card" hour of listening to be spent in the real world: Listen to the first half of the podcast twice Stand in line for the Pre for an hour and then leave Teach...
Engadget Podcast 148 - 05.30.2009
We know it's been a long, difficult wait, filled with unspeakable hardships and maybe a bit of Saturday brunch, but the Engadget Podcast is here at last to take away the pain and churn through the insanity of this week's news like a hot knife through imitation butter. It's just Paul and Josh this week, and things should get even crazier next week as E3 descends upon us all, but we promise to get the gang back together real soon to deliver the sort of off-topic rants and delicious...
Engadget Podcast 147 - 05.22.2009
It's the podcast you've been waiting for, maybe!

Josh Topolsky and Paul Miller walk into a bar, but the bar is a recording studio. The bartender, who is the recording engineer, asks, "Why the long faces?" "Sigh," Paul says, and looks down at his feet. "Nothing but a buncha crummy phone rumors and probably fake slim PS3 pictures this week." "It's hard to podcast when there's no exciting news to podcast about," says Josh, staring off into the distance.The door slams open: it's Nilay Patel. "I know what'll cheer you guys up!" he says as he...
Engadget Podcast 145 - 05.08.2009
