Welcome to the VergeCast, the flagship podcast of Quantum Dots.

I'm your friend David Pierce, and I'm sitting here at my desk trying desperately to figure

out the exact color temperature that my ring light should be.

Liam, our producer, keeps telling me that I look weirdly tan and sort of gross on our

video podcasts.

So I'm sitting here trying to figure out how to balance the big glass doors on my left,

the bricks behind me and outside, and the dark basement everywhere else.

Basically, I just slide the thing until I look weird and orange, and then I slide it back

until I look weird and blue.

Somewhere in the middle, there is a right answer, I think, but I have kind of lost hope

that I'm ever going to find it.

Okay, sorry.

I have to stop this and focus.

We have a great show coming up for you today.

We're going to talk about the TikTok man, which I don't think is going to happen, but

if it does, we're going to talk about how it might work.

Then we're going to talk about the state of Android phones, and how it happened that really

only two companies make phones worth buying anymore.

And finally, we're going to dig into OLED TVs and why these gorgeous, but flawed and

very expensive screens are becoming a much better buy.

All that is coming in just a sec, but first, I think I'm going to buy another ring light

because that'll fix it, right?
