the Editorial Director of Audio & Video at The Verge. He has over 20 years of experience in digital video and media, 10 of which he spent as an Executive Producer at BuzzFeed.
Since we launched our subscription last December, the most highly requested feature from Verge subscribers has been ad-free podcasts (seriously, highly requested).
Well… we heard you. (Get it?) Starting today, all Verge subscribers can listen to our award-winning podcasts without any ads whatsoever. Whether you enjoy listening to David and the gang talk about free, but ad-stuffed TVs on The Vergecast, or Nilay grill top executives and decision-makers like Google CEO Sundar Pichai on Decoder, or our reporters reminisce about vintage tech like the hoverboard on our new show Version History, you can now get your fix without getting interrupted by ad breaks.
Ad-free podcasts are now included with every single Verge subscription, at no extra cost. We’re not raising the price, either. It’s an upgrade through and through, and something we’re all excited to have in our own podcast players, too.
We have even more exciting podcast plans in the works, so stay tuned! If you’re a current Verge subscriber, click here for step-by-step instructions on how to set up your ad-free feeds. If you haven’t signed up yet and want to enjoy ad-free podcasts and a whole lot more, you can subscribe here for only $40 for your first year.
From ad-free podcasts to subscriber-exclusive newsletters and full-text RSS, the list of great reasons to subscribe to The Verge just keeps growing. Subscribing is the single best thing you can do to support our work and ensure we get to keep bringing you the journalism (and podcasts!) you love. Thanks for being along for the ride.
