Every Wednesday and Friday, The Verge <\/em>publishes our flagship podcast, The Vergecast<\/em><\/a>, where our editors make sense of the week\u2019s most important technology news. On Wednesdays, editor-at-large David Pierce leads a selection of The Verge<\/em>\u2019s expert staffers in an exploration of how gadgets and software affect our lives \u2014 and which ones you should bring into your home.<\/p>\n

Today\u2019s show focuses on a singular theme: working from home. Or working from anywhere! David hosts The Vergecast<\/em> from Miami, and talks to a bunch of experts about what it takes to successfully work away from a normal office, with tips on working from a sailboat, powering your gadgets with a solar generator, and getting internet in hard-to-reach places with Starlink. <\/p>\n

David starts the show with a story about the work-from-home gear showing up in the travel world. The CEO of Rove, Jonah Hanig, talks about Rove\u2019s approach to renovating rental houses for work-friendly travel. Then, Reflect\u2019s Alex MacCaw shares his experience working from a sailboat in the middle of the ocean and the gear he needs to do it. <\/p>\n

Later in the show, David talks with Verge<\/em> deputy editor Thomas Ricker about his review of the Jackery Solar Generator 2000 Pro<\/a>, as well as his experience working remotely in Europe and reviewing the most outdoorsy gadgets<\/a> we put on the site.<\/p>\n

In the final segment of the show, Verge <\/em>policy editor Russell Brandom and senior reporter Loren Grush discuss the state of using satellites like Starlink<\/a> to access the internet in rural areas. The satellite internet race is much bigger than Starlink, and potentially much bigger than people who want to live on boats and in RVs. <\/p>\n
