Engadget Eurocast 037: Smart watches, dumb phones and IFA - 09.06.13
Summer not only ushers in the sunshine (hopefully), but along with it, a calm, soothing decline in tech news. That's the illusion, but in reality it's just a powerful inward suck from the impending tsunami that always lands in September. We splash in the white water this week, covering the latest offerings from IFA. Next week, we ride the tube. Hosts: Steve Dent, James Trew, Sharif Sakr Producer: James Trew Hear the Podcast
Engadget Eurocast 036: Gamescom special - 08.29.13
Europe's largest game expo rolled into Cologne, Germany last week and we were there to celebrate. So was friend of the Eurocast Matt Lees (of Videogamer fame), and he joins us this week to go over the show's highlights. Hosts: Dan Cooper, James Trew Guest: Matt Lees Producer: James Trew Hear the Podcast
Engadget Eurocast 034: LG aims high, HTC looks Downey - 08.14.13
There are plenty of poor ideas this week. LG's balloon-based marketing grab, HTC's brave investment, and Sharif's fifth donut. On a plus note, there's a top guest from our friends at Huffington Post. Le Eurocast awaits. Hosts: Dan Cooper, Sharif Sakr Guest: Michael Rundle Producer: James Trew Hear the Podcast
Engadget Eurocast 033: Three men and a Barbie - 08.08.13
What's starts as a "made in the UK" edition soon deteriorates becomes a political and moral debate. Ironically, what could be more British than a bit of casual opinion exchange? Oh, and Barbie goes to Mars. Hear the Podcast
Engadget Eurocast 032: the renegade episode - 08.01.13
Dan's not here, so the Eurocast's hot-seat is up for grabs. Jamie got there first, so it's all under his expert guidance this week. Did we say expert? We meant delirious. Hear the Podcast
Engadget Eurocast 031: Netflix up, Surface RT down, Ubuntu on the Edge - 07.24.13
While the news we're subject to might sometimes feel a little... negative, that's not entirely the case this week. If you're Netflix, at least. As for the rest of us? We're doomed. Leave it to the Eurocast to explain why. Hosts: Dan Cooper, James Trew, Jamie Rigg Producer: James Trew Hear the Podcast
Engadget Eurocast 030 - 06.25.13
Samsung's device creation model seems similar to how McDonald's attained world-wide burger dominance, according to Dan -- listen below and you might find yourself compelled by his reasoning. Before you do, though, know that Sharif still believes the world will end before the next cast and that he loves you all, dearly. Of course, you can always count on Steve to make sure those seemingly wild notions get met with some balance and sensibility. This, friends, is the Engadget Eurocast. Hosts: Dan Cooper, Sharif Sakr, Steve Dent Producers: James Trew, Joe Pollicino Hear the Podcast
Engadget Eurocast 029: Xbox One Vs PS4 smackdown - 06.13.13
The battle for the living room reaches new heights this week thanks to a little industry get together being held out in LA. That's far from the only shindig going on though, with Apple's WWDC also ushering in lots of lovely tech to talk about. Three of our Euro crew took some time to do exactly that, so you don't have to. We like to think it's a service... Hosts: Dan Cooper, Sharif Sakr, Jamie Rigg Producer: James Trew Hear the Podcast
Engadget Eurocast 028: The Twix and the Football boot - 05.31.13
Electric cars, smart sports gear and confectionary-based metaphors. This week's Eurocast has them. How can you have such variety in one podcast? Listen in to find out. Hosts: Dan Cooper, James Trew, Steve Dent Producer: James Trew Hear the Podcast
Engadget Eurocast 027 - 05.24.13
One podcast, one subject, one gaming console. See where we're going with this? Oh, and one very special guest this week too. One Eurocast awaits you. Hosts: Dan Cooper, Sharif Sakr Guest: Matt Lees Producer: James Trew Hear the Podcast
Engadget Eurocast 026 - 05.16.13
Sharif will pay extra for the hump. Dan fires up his lizard brain, and Steve commits technological treason. All standard fare for the Eurocast. Get it right here. Hosts: Dan Cooper, Sharif Sakr, Steve Dent Producer: James Trew Hear the Podcast
Engadget Eurocast 025 - 05.02.13
This week's show shows what happens when the unstoppable force of technology meets the immovable object of our team's cynicism and stinginess. The gang continues its discussion on Google Glass, doesn't think much of Illumiroom and gets weirdly philosophical when it comes to the latest words to come from Thorsten Heins' mouth. Plus, the team get wistful for a Nokia phone launched in 2007 and try (and fail) to use voice communication to send smartphone messages to each other. Hosts: Dan Cooper, Mat Smith, James Trew Producer: James Trew Hear the Podcast
Engadget Eurocast 024 - 04.24.13
Take a look around you, what do you see? Walls? People? An office? Take it all in, suck it all up. Why? Because today all that changes forever. Jamie's revelation that he's a University Challenge nut flips everything we know on its head. Also, Mat drops "convincement" like it wasn't even a thing. This madness is the Eurocast. Hosts: Dan Cooper, Mat Smith, Jamie Rigg Producer: James Trew Hear the Podcast
Engadget Eurocast 023 - 04.18.13
This episode is all about size. The biggest phone we've ever man-handled, the biggest player in the PC processor business (for now), and an epic re-write of the mobile phone plan on this side of the pond. We might be over selling that last story, but here it is, the big one, Eurocast 23. Hosts: Dan Cooper, James Trew, Sharif Sakr Producer: James Trew Hear the Podcast
Engadget Eurocast 022 - 04.09.13
It's a very weird venn diagram that has early adopters, lazy millionaires and a trio of our European editors at the heart of it, but that's where we find this week's show. Steve talks about the new cameras and displays that's been shown off at NAB, Mat dreams up the future of retail and Dan? Let's just say that he's feeling a little more miffed than usual. Hosts: Dan Cooper, Steve Dent, Mat Smith Producer: James Trew Hear the Podcast
Engadget Eurocast 021 - 04.04.13
An American has invaded the Eurocast! Okay, not really... We asked our amazing NYC-based editor, Joseph Volpe, to grace us with his lovely voice. Topics for this edition include the likely-to-be announced HTC & Facebook phone, Michael Dell's restructuring memo, OUYA (OH, YEAH) and our -- slightly NSFW -- ideas for April Fools' pranks. Right-o, this is the Engadget Eurocast. Hosts: Dan Cooper, Jamie Rigg, Joseph Volpe Producers: James Trew, Joe Pollicino Hear the Podcast
Engadget Eurocast 020 - 03.28.13
Sports, art and drama... this week has it all. In fact the only thing it's lacking is a bit of romance. Unless Jamie's love of a student lifestyle counts? Honestly, when you find out what that involves, you'll realize it really doesn't. Hosts: Dan Cooper, Jamie Rigg, Steve Dent Producer: James Trew Hear the Podcast
Engadget Eurocast 019 - 03.13.13
If you think you had a bad week, spare a thought for the folk at EA. With SimCity's launch thoroughly bungled, it's left for us to pick up the pieces and try and make sense of it all. Not every story casts a gloomy shadow this week, there's the imminent army of One Direction figurines on their way to cheer us up. Find out how and when in the Eurocast below. Hosts: Dan Cooper, Sharif Sakr, Steve Dent Producer: James Trew Hear the Podcast
Engadget Eurocast 018 - 03.06.13
Whether it's a swift tour of the floor at MWC, a rapid lap at a Barcelona racetrack or 4K video streamed directly to your TV (over a lightning fast rural connection) there's a distinct smell of burning rubber in the air. Failing that, it could be the smell of money burnt on luxury phones? Either way, this week's podcast is definitely hot. Get it right here. Hosts: James Trew, Jamie Rigg, Mat Smith Producer: James TrewHear the Podcast
Engadget Eurocast 017 - 02.28.13
In a week that plays host to one of Europe's biggest tech shows, as you can imagine, there's a fair amount to talk about. Someone should probably do a podcast that covers these sort of things! Who would be more qualified, then, than our very own tech-loving Europe shift? Fear not then, as everything from Nokia's colorful new line up, LG's curious acquisition, to ASUS' even more curious naming convention, gets the Engadget treatment. All just a click away. Disfrutad!
