0.031 - 22.636 Charlie Harding

Taylor Swift's latest album, The Life of a Showgirl, has only been out a week, and the discourse could not be more divided. Some critics are calling it fake and cringe, others are giving it five stars, but almost everyone assumes it's autobiography. What if they're all wrong? What if every Easter egg, every lyric, is just part of the performance? I'm Charlie Harding from Switched on Pop.

I'm Preet Bharara, and this week, political advisor and podcast host Dan Senor joins me on my podcast, Stay Tuned with Preet, to discuss the new ceasefire in Gaza and what comes next for the war-torn region. The episode is out now.

This week on The Verge Cast, we talk about what it means that Google now makes a bunch of phones, some headphones, a smartwatch, and even a tablet that are all pretty good. And we ask an important and impossible question.
