Host: Megan Morrone Guests: Scott Hanselman, Alex Kantrowitz It appears that Yahoo's search for a suitor is nearing its bitter end. Sources report that a sale of Yahoo's search business to Verizon is imminent. This doesn't come as much of a surprise. We've all read the leaks and speculation and Verizon has been a front-runner for a while, due in part to its massive pile of cash and its ability and desire to patch together a digital media empire along with its purchase of AOL. Seems like a game of Monopoly to us. Fresh off yesterday's announcement of a phone case that stops government surveillance, NSA Whistleblower Edward Snowden appeared at a secret Comic-Con screening of the film Snowden by Oliver Stone. The New York Times reports that internet celebrity Jack Johnson has been hacking his fans accounts. How? He asked for their credentials and tens of thousands of them complied. The YouTube and Vine star then left funny videos on the fans Twitter account, playing keyboard, doing somersaults, or praising their pinned tweets with the hashtag, HackedByJohnson. The Times says those kids who handed over their passwords knew exactly what they were doing and it was a normal act of teenage rebellion. Amazon drones are yet to deliver sneakers to my home, but 7-Eleven has completed its maiden home drone delivery, dropping off Slurpees, a chicken sandwich, donuts, hot coffee and candy directly to somebody's front door. Seven Eleven partnerered with drone company Flirty to make the FAA approved delivery. Last year we told you about Flirty's first delivery ever, which was to deliver medical supplies from an airfield to a medical clinic. Slurpees are a far cry from medical supplies. But the coffee is another story. Scott Hanselman from Microsoft talks about Windows 10 Developer Mode and Alex Kantrowitz discusses Tinder's new group date feature, Tinder Social.

With a classic cast of Nilay Patel, Dieter Bohn, Paul Miller, and Lauren Goode, we have a very nerdy episode of Vergecast this week. For starters, there’s the news about SoftBank buying chip maker ARM, then the Electric Frontier Foundation filing a lawsuit that takes on anti-circumvention rules. The gang also goes deep into nostalgia with classic consumer electronics. But we couldn’t leave it at that. Paul interviews our own senior reporter Bryan Bishop, who calls in live from San Diego Comic-Con to tell us what he’s seen so far at the convention. To top it all off, we go into the nerdiest part of the celebrity feud between Kayne West and Taylor Swift, which leads to the cast going through their own note-taking apps. 08:20 – Softbank buys ARM 24:45 – Paul’s "Gadget shhecrets" 29:20 – EFF copyright lawsuit 37:40 – Nostalgia note 44:24 – SDCC interview with Bryan Bishop 56:26 – Taylor Swift / Kanye West / Kim Kardashian feud 1:02:57 – Note app game And in case you didn't know, we have a whole network of podcasts to listen to. You can find them all in iTunes, Google Play, and now Spotify. They include Ctrl-Walt-Delete with Walt Mossberg and Nilay Patel, which dives deep into tech; Verge ESP with Emily Yoshida and Liz Lopatto, which blurs the lines between science and entertainment; and What's Tech? with Christopher Thomas Plante, which explains technology in layman's terms.
