"We've also had a lot of great questions and comments this year from you, our audience. It's now an annual tradition for us to turn the tables on Nilay for our final episode of the year, so we pulled together all the feedback we've received on topics like CarPlay, Monday episode guest suggestions, and - of course - AI. We also received a lot of great questions over the last few weeks asking about how Decoder is put together,"
"When we did this last year, our top two most frequently asked questions were very straightforward. First: Why isn't Decoder on YouTube? Thankfully, we fixed that one. We launched the Decoder YouTube channel in October, and we now publish full video episodes every week, starting with our classic Monday interview format. We also got asked a lot about an ad-free podcast option last year, and we're happy to say that also since October, Verge subscribers now have access to ad-free audio feeds."
"We've received some feedback about making our Thursday explainer episodes full video, too. Trust us - we're working on it. It's a little more complicated and resource-intensive, and so it's going to take some time to iron out the kinks. Beyond that, we're very excited to experiment more with format, video, and even live production in 2026. (Come join us live at CES on January 7, at the Brooklyn Bowl!)"
Decoder produced nearly 100 episodes this year and launched a YouTube channel that now posts full video episodes weekly. Verge subscribers gained access to an ad-free podcast feed beginning in October. The team received audience feedback on topics such as CarPlay, guest suggestions, AI, episode format, and production choices. The producers asked Nilay about the show's year, decisions, and future improvements. The team is working to convert Thursday explainer episodes to full video, planning more format experiments and live production in 2026, and will appear live at CES on January 7.
