Some have even gone so far as to vandalize the cars. In this episode from KQED's Close All Tabs podcast, Morgan Sung speaks with Bloomberg journalist Ellen Huet and law professor Ryan Calo to explore the rise of Waymo vandalism, and its roots in our collective anxiety over AI.

Zyn nicotine pouches hit the market as a run-of-the-mill tobacco-replacement product, but over the past few years, they’ve gone viral thanks to so-called “Zynfluencers”: content creators who post about Zyn. They’re not paid by Zyn’s parent company Philip Morris, and while the online hype has likely helped sales, it also presents risks for the tobacco giant. Today on the show, Bloomberg Businessweek writer Ellen Huet joins host Sarah Holder to discuss what could become an existential question: Can the company ride the Zynfluencer wave without getting in trouble if kids get hooked?

For the first time in more than a decade, Burning Man has not sold out. The gathering prides itself on its counter-cultural roots, and draws tens of thousands of people to the Nevada desert every year for a week of art, music and adventure. But it's also gradually moved further into the mainstream, becoming a rite of passage for a certain set of Silicon Valley elites. Whether it's because of last year's rain, economic strains, or something deeper, one thing is clear: this year, demand for Burning Man tickets is down. On today's Big Take podcast, Bloomberg technology reporter Ellen Huet joins host Sarah Holder to grapple with a burning question: has Burning Man peaked?

The overnight success of ChatGPT helped turn Sam Altman, CEO of its maker, OpenAI, into one of the most powerful people in tech. At a conference hosted by Bloomberg last summer, Altman was asked why we should trust him with so much power, and in response, Altman said, “You shouldn't.” And yet, throughout his career, Altman has managed to win the trust of Silicon Valley’s kingmakers with ease. In the latest season of Bloomberg’s podcast “Foundering,” journalist Ellen Huet tries to understand Altman’s rise to power. Marketplace's Lily Jamali spoke to Huet about what she learned.

Will Marc Andreessen dogfood Adam Neumann’s new real estate startup? Will Andreessen be willing to run the same playbook for Flow, Neumann’s new rental real estate company? When is the last time, Andreessen — who called “renting a soulless experience” — actually lived in a rental? Is he willing to give up his $177 million Malibu compound for the shared amenities of a Flow? Andreessen doesn’t seem willing to embrace urban density in Atherton — he and his wife wrote a letter expressing their “IMMENSE objection to the creation of multifamily overlay zones in Atherton.” On this week’s Dead Cat, co-host Tom Dotan observed that much of Silicon Valley’s upper crust seems unwilling to put their values into action when it comes to residential real estate: “They’re not going to dogfood it, right? They’re not going to be using their own products in order to fix this larger issue.”Co-host Eric Newcomer replied, “The whole tech philosophy is dogfood your product — suffer through your terrible tech product that you’re trying to force on the world, and they won’t even dogfood the world that they want, which is a dense urban life.”Eric's former open office neighbor at Bloomberg, Ellen Huet, came on Dead Cat to talk about Neumann’s new company and Andreessen’s nimbyism. Huet wrote about WeWork for Bloomberg, hosted a podcast about Neumann, chronicled housing opposition in Atherton, and now is writing a book about an alleged sex cult called “OneTaste.” She also spent many years living in an intentional living community in San Francisco. So you can fairly say that she has stared deeply into Neumann’s soul.We start off the episode talking about the Andreessens’ opposition to new housing in Atherton. Then about halfway through, we get into Flow. Give it a listen.Read the automated transcript. Get full access to Newcomer at www.newcomer.co/subscribe

This podcast is now the subject of a legal complaint by OM IP Co and the Institute of OM LLC. In 2018, Bloomberg Businessweek published an article by reporter Ellen Huet exposing the toxic culture within One Taste. Shortly afterwards, the FBI started making enquiries into the company over allegations of sex trafficking, prostitution and violation of labour laws. The company has since closed all its physical locations and is no longer offering in-person courses. Co-founder Nicole Daedone had stepped down as CEO the previous year – and after the FBI started making enquiries, she vanished. Former One Taste members tell us about their disappointment that the company has not responded better to the allegations against it. And we hear how many people struggled to put their lives back together after their time at One Taste. If you've been affected by any of the issues raised in this programme, help and advice are available at bbc.co.uk/actionline.

The WeWork Story, Part 7: After WeWork's failed IPO, thousands of employees were laid off and the company teetered on the brink of collapse. Meanwhile, ousted CEO Adam Neumann flew to Israel with a generous exit package in hand. In this final episode of Foundering, reporter Ellen Huet surveys the wreckage of WeWork. Adam's executives and employees were asking themselves: Did Adam ever really believe in the values he preached? And what lessons will the world draw from WeWork's crash?
The WeWork Story, Part 6: WeWork had spent nine years chasing lightning-fast growth, burning billions of dollars, and expanding around the world. In 2019, the company reached a turning point: WeWork needed even more cash, and Adam Neumann decided to take his company public with a massive IPO. But suddenly, in the span of a few weeks, his plan crashed spectacularly. The almost-IPO flopped and WeWork became a laughingstock. In this episode, reporter Ellen Huet asks: How did the company's fortune flip so fast, and why didn't they see it coming?

Today in the Food Court, Ted and Aseem debate the fate of that most neutral (insipid? invitingly plain?) of grain spirits: vodka. Aseem presses for the death penalty; Ted makes a heartfelt plea for mercy, invoking special witness Carrie Bradshaw. Presided over as always by the infallible Ellen Huet.
Feeling that things were not combative enough, we are launching a new segment: the Food Court. Here, Ted and Aseem debate the fates of certain controversial comestibles in the ultimate court of culinary opinion. First on the chopping block--the Danish. Does the Danish deserve to die? Find out on the first edition of the Food Court, presided over by special guest Ellen Huet.
In the world of cocktail party snacking, not all munchies are created equal. Today, Ted and Aseem contemplate perhaps the laziest possible offering: the raw vegetable-and-maybe-dip situation known as crudites. Can Aseem defend the humble vegetable platter from Ted's carnivorous strictures? Find out how omniscient judge Ellen Huet rules in this latest installment of the Food Court.
Today we take on the titan, the elephant in the dining room, the food of our times: Avocado toast. Can Aseem defend this once-humble fat-and-bread combination from Ted's puritanical onslaught against the world's hippest Insta-food? The fate of this ultimate Millennial dish rests, as always, in the capable hands of inimitable judge Ellen Huet.
In just nine years, WeWork has gone from a company that offers shared office space for startups and freelancers to a global company valued at $47 billion that provides offices to the likes of IBM, GE and NASDAQ. Not only that, it has added to its core business a handful of other — sometimes puzzling — companies, including WeLive, WeGrow and Made by We. With over 300 locations around the world, WeWork has ambitions to be a lot more than a co-working space, but can it make good on its vision for the future of work and home? Then again, what exactly is that vision? This week on Money Talking, Charlie Herman talks to Ellen Huet venture capital reporter at Bloomberg and Katrina Brooker, senior contributing writer to Fast Company about what WeWork is, and where it wants to go.
When a tech journalist is asked to review a new company, they don’t always expect to find themselves in a sex cult. Meet Ellen Huet, a brilliant journalist at Bloomberg (and Cam’s Stanford crush), who recently published a ground-breaking exposé on OneTaste, a company teaching “Orgasmic Meditation,” or OM. After extensive research, it turns out that OneTaste goes beyond teaching people how to pleasure women through a specific approach to fingering, but functions more like a cult. What leads people to fall into and remain in a cult? How are cults structured and what does it look like on the inside? Why did KarenLee attend a blow-job class? Make sure to check out Ellen’s article, The Dark Side of Orgasmic Meditation in Bloomberg Businessweek. Follow her on Twitter @EllenHuet. As always, please let us know your thoughts on this episode. We’re especially excited to hear your perspective on cults and OM'ing! Leave us a voicemail or text us at (YES)-TEXT-MOM, or (937)-839-8666. We'll try to include your message in our Monday Morning After Show! Thank you for all the love over the past 140+ episodes. We couldn't do it without you.
