On this episode of The Vergecast, Nilay, David, and The Verge’s Jake Kastrenakes try and find the right buyer for Chrome. But before that, we have some news to get to. News including that we won the Webby Award for Best Technology Podcast! Thanks again to everyone who voted for us — we were up against some excellent competition, and we’re thrilled you picked us. We also have some Party Speaker Capitalism Updates, some thoughts and stories about trying to buy a Switch 2, and a lot of confusing new information about tariffs. I mean, it’s one gadget, Michael. What could it cost, ten dollars?

After that, we head into the courtroom, where both Google and Meta are fighting for their antitrust lives. We talk about what the trial means for AI companies and search competitors alike, and why there aren’t as many realistic Chrome buyers as you might think. There might only be one that makes sense. (One we fail to even consider: Yahoo, which said it was interested just after we finished recording.) We also discuss Instagram co-founder Kevin Systrom’s scorching testimony in the Meta trial, and why it might be damaging to Meta’s case.

Finally, in the lightning round, it’s time for another segment of (future award-winning podcast within a podcast) Brendan Carr is a Dummy. We also talk about the 20th anniversary of YouTube, the new Motorola Razr Ultra, and some deeply weird ideas about wood gadgets.
