  • Today on the flagship podcast of scaled EV production:
    Verge producer Will Poor tags along with a former Uber Eats driver who ditched the delivery apps and is trying to start a one-man gig work revolution.
    The Verge's David Pierce and Andrew Hawkins discuss Rivian's new vehicles they announced last week, and what it will take for the company to compete with Tesla.
    David and Allison Johnson answer a question from The Vergecast Hotline about foldable phones.

    Man, a video component of this type of story would have been exponentially more intriguing.

    As a resident of downtown Seattle who hasn't used DoorDash/Uber Eats since the extra fee, I can personally attest that Tony has been a godsend to our community

    For the headphones without headphones thing, bose frames are the best. Full stop. Absolutely love mine!

    David, I have the EXACT same issue with overusing earbuds causing my ears to itch. Please follow up if you find an alternative set that you like, hopefully one that's affordable 😅. Love the show!

    Our household’s favorite pizza place is our favorite because they take orders the “old” way, calls only. It’s refreshing and cheaper.

    I hope Tony's customers are actually calling in the order because otherwise 4 deliveries an hour is impossible. That's not even an average you can usually get working directly for a restaurant unless you're in a metro area with a tight delivery radius.

    QUESTION: Did Tony ever work at a Startup? --- Where else but NY, SF or SEATAC do you hear about S-Curve, DunBar, And Do "Shapes" have thoughts...from your delivery person.

    your ears itch because you have ear dermatitis. go see doctor and they will give you a cream to treat it. happened to me and it took me years of not wearing my AirPods

    A transportation reporter who is a self-professed non car guy speaking about cars (and getting details wrong) ain’t it

    • @sullivan4052
      @sullivan4052 Před 2 měsíci

      theres more to transportation that being a car guy

    Why do you guys make hour long podcast style videos? I'd think for monetary value, you would be better off publishing topics separately. Do you need a good editor? I like your content so I hope you all stay in business. Thanks
