Een overzicht van het belangrijkste mobiliteitsnieuws! Verkeersminister Tieman (BBB) is blij met de doorstroming in de Randstad, de Amsterdamse 'klushub' blijkt (voorlopig) een grote flop en de oprichters van VanMoof zijn volgens The Verge tóch weer betrokken bij de lancering van een nieuwe e-bike. Er is bitter weinig animo voor de 'kushub' die eind februari geopend werd in Amsterdam. Sinds de start maakten pas drie bedrijven gebruik van de hub in de Piet Heingarage en één van die bedrijven is inmiddels gestopt, meldt AT5. Ondernemers die de zero-emissiezone in willen, kunnen hun vervuilende busje daar omwisselen voor een licht elektrisch voertuig. Verkeerswethouder Melanie van der Horst geeft nog niet op. Verder in deze update: Verkeersminister Robert Tieman is blij met de doorstroming van het verkeer in de Randstad.

Tesla is famous for throwing caution to the wind in the name of rolling out cool technology, so it was somewhat surprising to see its robotaxi service launch over the weekend in somewhat muted fashion. The Verge's Andy Hawkins joins the show to explain what, exactly, Elon Musk and co. launched, and what it says about the state of the self-driving revolution. After that, The Verge's Allison Johnson takes us through the history of MVNOs, and why they might just be the best deal in wireless carriers. We talk about Trump Mobile, Ryan Reynolds, e-SIMs, and what it would mean to make it easier to switch service. Finally, we answer a question from the Vergecast Hotline about how to free up storage on your iPhone. It's harder than it should be, but hopefully easier than you think.

It's a small miracle that a bunch of us managed to get our heads out of Mario Kart World long enough to make a show about the Switch 2. But that's what we did! First, we chat with The Verge's Andrew Webster about his review, and why it feels like the Switch 2 is both everything we wanted and somehow still a little underwhelming. (Or at least just... whelming.) After that, The Verge's Ash Parrish tells us about her adventures traveling with the Switch 2, plus her recent time with the new Asus ROG Xbox Ally, and what she's learning about the future of consoles. Finally, The Verge's Sean Hollister helps us answer a question from the Vergecast Hotline all about console prices: why they keep going up, and whether they'll continue to be worth it.

Goalie confidence could cost Edmonton in game 6. 60 in 60 Watchlist | Good, Bad & Ugly Whole World News

The Florida Panthers are on the verge of back to back Stanley Cups after dominating the Oilers in Game 5, showing once again that are borderline unstoppable when they play their game. If they finish the job, where will they rank among best teams of all time in the salary cap era. But while we're stuck in this waiting period for the offseason to begin, we're surrounded by rumors about what the Avalanche could do, but what realistically can they do ahead of next season? Also, if you were commissioner for a day, what would you change about the NHL?

But coming at ya faster than that is the latest episode with a TON of stuff to uncover in the sports world. On deck: (6:42) OKC showed what they were made of in Game 4 as SGA's big fourth quarter ties the series at two. How will Game 5 and the rest of the Finals play out starting tonight? There was a huge trade in the Association as the Magic go all in on former Grizzlies guard Desmond Bane. Is he worth two players and four unprotected first round picks? Also, the Knicks head coaching search continues and where does Kevin Durant end up? (27:17) The Florida Panthers are one win away from going back to back against the Edmonton Oilers. Not even a crushing Game 4 defeat will slow down the defending champs as they dominated Game 5 on the road. Will this series go back to Western Canada in Game 7? Or will the Panthers wrap up another championship? (40:44) The saga between the Red Sox and Rafael Devers came to an abrupt end with the disgruntled DH getting shipped to San Francisco for two pitchers and prospects. Was this a good move by Boston? Does this make the Giants contenders in the NL? Plus, it was a lost weekend for the New York teams as they were both surprisingly swept. And Shohei Ohtani will make his Dodgers pitching debut vs. San Diego. What should we expect? (57:35) After what was a US Open to forget, one player came up from the rubble to win the tournament. His name is JJ Spaun. I'll recap what turned out to be a slog and a wet one at that as the third golf major of the year is already in the books.

In 2024, the Panthers led the Stanley Cup Final 3-games-to-2 with pressure headed back to Edmonton against an Oiler team bent on continuing an historic comeback.This time around, they head home with a chance to repeat after a commanding 5-2 win at Rogers Place led by a 37-year-old unrestricted free agent whose value is actually increasing.Vic and Neil hit the key points, including the Oilers decision to start Calvin Pickard in goal plus the apparent lethargy for the home team after a quick turnaround between Games 4 and 5.This Day in Stanley Cup History takes a look back at two original six teams clinching their most recent Stanley Cup titles.X: https://twitter.com/NHLWraparoundNeil Smith: https://twitter.com/NYCNeilVic Morren: https://www.linkedin.com/in/vic-morren-7038737/NHL Wraparound Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/nhlwraparound/#NHLWraparound #ShortShifts #NYCentric #StanleyCupdate #NeilSmith #VicMorren #NHL #AnaheimDucks # #BostonBruins #BuffaloSabres #CalgaryFlames #CarolinaHurricanes #ChicagoBlackhawks #ColoradoAvalanche #ColumbusBlueJackets #DallasStars #DetroitRedWings #EdmontonOilers #FloridaPanthers #LosAngelesKings #MinnesotaWild #MontrealCanadiens #NashvillePredators #NewJerseyDevils #NewYorkIslanders #NewYorkRangers #OttawaSenators #PhiladelphiaFlyers #PittsburghPenguins #StLouisBlues #SanJoseSharks #SeattleKraken #TampaBayLightning #TorontoMapleLeafs #UtahMammoth #VancouverCanucks #VegasGoldenKnights #WashingtonCapitals #WinnipegJets #StanBowman #KrisKnoblauch #CalvinPickard #StuartSkinnerr #ConnorBrown #ConnorMcDavid #BradMarchand #VasilyPodkolzin #MattiasEkholm #DarnellNurse #EetuLuostarinen #CarterVerhaeghe #EvanRodrigues #SamBennett #MatthewTkachuk #SergeiBobrovsky #JakeWalman #EvanBouchard #AleksanderBarkov #CoreyPerry #SamReinhart #LeonDraisaitl #StuartSkinner #ButchGoring #RobBlake #RayBourque #BillZito #SethJones #AnthonyStolarz #VitekVanceck #BrandonMontour #OliverEkman-Larsson #StevenLorentz #JackEichel #TomFitzgerald #AdamGraves #StephaneMatteau #MatthewKnies #JJPeterka #GabeVilardi #MarcoRossi #MasonMacTavish #DmitriVoronkov #TomFitzgerald #DougArmstrong #PhiliBroberg #DylanHolloway #MikeGreer #JoeSakic #PatriceBergeron #TimThomas #ConnSmytheTrophy #MikeKarakas #CoreyCrawford #DuncanKeith #PatrickKane #NiklasHjalmarsson #GlenSeabrooke #JohnnyOduya #PatVerbeek

Hey everyone, it's Nilay. Decoder is on a short summer break right now, but we'll be back starting June 23 with new episodes, and we're very excited for what we have on the schedule.  In the meantime, we have an episode from the excellent podcast Stay Tuned with Preet, with host and former U.S. Attorney Preet Bharara. Last month, Preet sat down with former FTC Chair Lina Khan for a pretty high-level discussion about antitrust, monopoly power, and the ongoing shift from both political parties in the United States toward more aggressive, bipartisan regulation of Big Tech. I think you'll find it really interesting.    Links:  Stay Tuned with Preet | Apple Podcasts Google loses ad tech monopoly case | Verge Judge greenlights FTC's antitrust suit against Amazon | Verge Judge rules that Google ‘is a monopolist' in US antitrust case | Verge Illegally fired FTC commissioners on Meta, bribes, and fighting for privacy | Decoder The case for breaking up Google has never been stronger | Decoder DOJ antitrust chief is ‘overjoyed' after Google monopoly verdict | Decoder DOJ's Kanter says the antitrust fight against Big Tech is just beginning  | Decoder Credits: Decoder is a production of The Verge and part of the Vox Media Podcast Network.

Apple spent 90 minutes talking about the future of its software, and we're pretty sure only said the word "Siri" once. Nilay and David are joined by The Verge's Victoria Song and Allison Johnson, both of whom were with Nilay at the keynote, to talk about all the news of the day. They talk about the Liquid Glass design language, and why Apple decided to redesign all its software. They talk about Spotlight on the Mac, the new multitasking features on the iPad, the typing indicators on the iPhone, Workout Buddy on the Watch, personas on the Vision Pro, and everything else that Apple announced — or, in a few cases, pointedly didn't announce — on stage. We're just starting to try out some of this software, and it's all likely to change a lot before it hits your devices this fall. And we'll have lots of thoughts along the way.

Today, I'm talking with Taskrabbit CEO Ania Smith. Taskrabbit is an interesting company; it's known best for being a platform for hiring people to put together your furniture, so much so that IKEA acquired it in 2017. But Taskrabbit is still operating as a mostly independent company all these years later, and Ania is now in charge of maneuvering a fast-changing labor market during uncertain economic times and a potentially major AI disruption to the workforce on the horizon.

Developer conference season is almost over, but we've got one show left to see: Apple's WWDC begins on Monday. Nilay, David, and Joanna Stern spend time going through both what they expect to see at the show, and why this year's WWDC might feel a bit different than in years past. Apple is in a tricky place with regulators, developers, and users alike, and has some genuine explaining to do. After that, they talk about the launch of the Nintendo Switch 2, and David's surprisingly easy adventure to acquire one. We also have a bit of smart glasses and AI gadgets news to discuss, so we do that too.

We've talked many times on The Vergecast about the dream of the perfect charger. We call it The God Cable, and imagine it would charge everything, at full optimized speed, no matter what you plug in. Well, one company tried to make it – sort of. TwelveSouth founder Andrew Green joins the show to talk about how his company developed its newest product, the PowerCord, and why actually the God Cable might be both impossible and a bad idea. After that, The Verge's Tina Nguyen joins the show to talk about her experience at Bitcoin 2025 in Las Vegas, the rise of $TRUMP, and how crypto and the government became so intertwined.

This is Brian's fourth time on the show, and he's one of my favorite guests because he's so clearly obsessed with things like company structure, design, and decision making. You know, Decoder stuff. This time, Brian came on to talk about the company's new services product and the full-scale redesign and rebuild of the Airbnb app to support these broader ambitions. There's a lot of fun, very Decoder-y stuff in this one.  Links:  Airbnb's new app has all of your vacation extras in one place | Verge “Flat design is over” | Brian Chesky Airbnb Is in midlife crisis mode | Wired He revolutionized travel.
