Today, I'm talking with journalist Megan Greenwell about her new book Bad Company: Private Equity and the Death of the American Dream. It comes out June 10th. It's fantastic and maddening in equal measure. I highly recommend it. In this episode, we discussed the genesis of Megan's interest in the subject and its genesis in media — including her time as editor-in-chief of the website Deadspin, which underwent a very public PE takeover of its parent company. We also talk a lot about the healthcare industry, another major pillar of Megan's book. I'm excited to hear what you think of this one.

In what's become a bit of a Decoder tradition, I spoke with Google CEO Sundar Pichai in person after I/O. The conference this year was all about AI, particularly a slew of actual AI products, not just models and capabilities. To Sundar, this marks the beginning of a new era for search and the web overall. So I had to ask: what happens to the web when AI tools and eventually agents do most of the browsing for us? It was a very Decoder conversation. Read the full transcript here.

Today, I'm talking with Uber CEO Dara Khosrowshahi. We recorded this conversation on the same day Uber announced a big set of product updates, including new options for shared rides. Dara was in New York for all that, so he came to our studio and we did this one together, which always makes for a great episode.  If you've been listening to Decoder recently, you know that I'm very curious about how service apps like Uber will handle things like AI agents. Dara had a lot of thoughts there. There's a lot in this one, and Dara didn't hold back. I think you're going to like it.

What happens when a court that often defers to the President finally says “not so fast”? In an excerpt from this week's Insider episode, Preet Bharara and Joyce Vance discuss the Supreme Court opinion halting the Trump administration's use of the Alien Enemies Act to rapidly deport alleged Venezuelan gang members.  Also on the Insider docket: – The justices heard oral arguments on whether federal judges can issue nationwide injunctions blocking enforcement of President Trump's executive order ending birthright citizenship; and – DOJ is investigating former FBI Director James Comey over a social media post the Trump administration says amounted to a threat of violence against the President.

Today, I'm talking with Kevin Scott, the chief technology officer of Microsoft, and one of the company's AI leaders. Kevin is one of my favorite repeat Decoder guests, and he joined the show this time to talk about the future of search.  Microsoft just announced an open-source tool for websites to integrate AI powered natural language search with just a little bit of effort, in a way that lets them actually run whatever models they want and keep control of their data. I saw some demos before Kevin and I chatted, and the improvements over the bad local search on most sites was obvious.

We're doing something a little different today — I asked my friend John Gruber of Daring Fireball to come on the show and talk about the future of Apple, and, importantly, the App Store. I wanted to talk about the most recent ruling in the Epic v. Apple legal saga. But I also wanted to talk about the big picture at Apple, and why the company seems to have found itself being hammered on all sides: by the developers that feel it's become too greedy, by federal court judges that no longer trust it, and by regulators now threatening some of its major cash cows.  Links:  Judge rules, in excoriating decision, that Apple violated 2021 order | Daring Fireball Steve Jobs' response on Section 3.3.1 | Tao Effect Blog Epic submitted Fortnite to Apple | Verge Eddy Cue is fighting to save Apple's $20 billion paycheck from Google | Verge Epic is offering developers an alternative to Apple's in-app purchases | Verge Epic says Fortnite is coming back to iOS in the US | Verge Apple files appeal to wrest back control of its App Store | Verge ‘Cook chose poorly': how Apple blew up its control over the App Store | Verge Apple changes App Store rules to allow external purchases | Verge Existential thoughts about Apple's reliance on Services revenue | Six Colors Credits: Decoder is a production of The Verge and part of the Vox Media Podcast Network.

Today, I'm talking with Paul Bascobert, who is the president of Reuters, as part of a special Thursday series we're running this month to explore how leaders at some world's biggest companies make decisions in such a rapidly changing environment. Reuters is a great company for us to kick off with, because it's been around since 1851, when the hot technology enabling mass media was the telegraph.  Here, today, in 2025, the tech driving media has clearly changed more than a little bit. Distribution in a world full of iPhones and generative AI is a really different proposition than distributing media 50 years before the invention of the radio. So there's a lot here, and you'll hear Paul and I get deep into basically every Decoder theme there is.

Plus, Preet answers questions about why the Trump administration is listing living people as deceased, whether Harvard should revoke degrees from graduates who served in Trump's White House, and, of course, grammar.   Join the CAFE Insider community to stay informed without hysteria, fear-mongering, or rage-baiting.

Today we're talking about the very real possibility that Google might be broken up by the United States government. And to do that, I'm talking to Jonathan Kanter, the former assistant attorney general for antitrust under the Biden administration. Kanter left the DOJ after Trump was elected, but he was the architect of the major antitrust cases the Trump administration continues to pursue against Google. That means he's much more free to share his thoughts on what it took to build and win both of these cases and what should happen next.

Who gets due process? Did the Trump administration deny Kilmar Abrego Garcia due process by deporting him to El Salvador despite an immigration judge's prior order blocking his removal? Listen to an excerpt from the Insider podcast with Preet Bharara and Joyce Vance.   In the full episode, Preet and Joyce further discuss the Abrego Garcia case, including a recent circuit court opinion, authored by a conservative judge, strongly rebuking the Trump administration's resistance to court orders compelling officials to facilitate Abrego Garcia's return to the United States. Also on the Insider docket: – The Supreme Court's emergency order blocking the Trump administration from using the Alien Enemies Act to deport alleged Venezuelan gang members; – A federal judge's indication that he will launch contempt proceedings against the Trump administration for seemingly violating his order blocking some deportations; and – The latest developments in the “Signal-gate” controversy, after reporting revealed Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth shared sensitive information in a group chat with his wife, brother, and lawyer.

As CEO of Verizon's consumer division, Sowmyanarayan Sampath oversees the biggest part of the company, which does business with roughly a third of the entire country. He's a longtime Verge reader, so we  talked very directly about whether the huge 5G investment had actually paid off, and whether – whether the “race” we were supposedly in with China was actually worth it, and what kinds of new apps and services actually come to light. And while Verizon fought tooth and nail against regulations like net neutrality, the current Trump administration isn't nearly as hands-off when it comes to things like  holding up deals because of DEI policies — something that's happening to Verizon right now. So I had to ask Sampath if he was going to push back on that kind of government overreach as hard as Verizon has in the past.

One of the ways I've been trying to sort out the chaos of tariffs and trade wars is by talking to the people behind the software that makes the global trade system go. So today I wanted to bring back one of my favorite Decoder guests: Flexport CEO Ryan Petersen, whose software manages the logistics of moving things around the world, from factory to doorstep.  We didn't get too much into the numbers — those tariff percentages keep changing — so instead Ryan and I really focused on how this system works, how it's supposed to work, and how it's working now, if it's working at all.  Links:  Flexport Tariff Live Blog | Flexport US tariffs: how Trump's tax is hitting Big Tech and beyond | Verge How much will Trump's tariffs cost U.S. importers? | NYT How much are tariffs on Chinese goods?

Will the Trump administration facilitate the return of Kilmar Abrego Garcia to the United States after officials admitted he was erroneously deported to El Salvador, or will it defy the Supreme Court's order? Listen to an excerpt from the Insider podcast with Preet Bharara and Joyce Vance.   In the full episode, Preet and Joyce further discuss Abrego Garcia's case, including the uncertainty over whether the SCOTUS ruling was unanimous, and the separation-of-powers implications of a court order related to the executive branch's authority in international affairs.  They also analyze President Trump's executive memoranda targeting two members of his first administration who criticized him: former Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency Director Chris Krebs and former Department of Homeland Security chief of staff Miles Taylor.

Today, I'm talking with Vlad Tenev, the co-founder and CEO of Robinhood, which started as a way to open up stock trading. But the company's ambitions have grown over time – and they're getting bigger. Just a day before Vlad and I talked, Robinhood announced it would soon be offering bank accounts and wealth management services, which would really allow Robinhood to be involved with your money at every possible level.  So I was very interested to sit down with Vlad and really hash out where Robinhood is going, and why he's so adamant that certain big ideas, like prediction markets based around everything from sports games to presidential elections, are going to play a pivotal role in the future of finance.

Rohit Chopra was the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau head until the end of January, when President Donald Trump fired him and Elon Musk's DOGE began trying to dismantle the agency. The CFPB has been pretty popular since it was founded in the wake of the 2008 financial crisis to protect consumers, so shutting it down has kicked off a bunch of controversies — not least of which was whether Trump and Musk even had the power to do it. This all led me to ask several times who made the decision to fire him, who is currently responsible for the various policies of our government, and whether any of those things add up to a clear plan. Some of the most powerful executives in the world answer questions like this on Decoder all the time. But Rohit just didn't know — and that should probably be as worrying as anything.

What's the correct legal path—and the proper venue—for someone facing deportation to challenge their removal in court?  On this week's Insider episode, Joyce Vance is joined by former U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of Michigan Barb McQuade and Lawfare editor-in-chief Ben Wittes, while Preet is out. In an excerpt from the show, they break down the Supreme Court order vacating a lower court decision that froze the Trump administration's invocation of the Alien Enemies Act to deport alleged Venezuelan gang members to El Salvador.   In the full episode, Joyce, Barb, and Ben discuss:  – The legal arguments that might support President Donald Trump's claim that he could serve a third term as president; and – Other legal challenges stemming from the Trump administration's deportations, including one case where officials admit they erroneously deported a Maryland man.

Today, I'm talking with Daniel Dines, the co-founder and once again the CEO of UiPath, a software company that specializes in something called robotic process automation. We've been featuring a lot of what I like to call full-circle Decoder guests on the show lately, and Daniel is a perfect example. He was first on the show in 2022, and UiPath has had a lot of changes since then, including a short stint with a different CEO. Daniel is now back at the helm, and the timing is important: the company needs to shift, fast, to a world of agentic AI, which is radically changing the RPA business. We got into all that and more in this episode. It's a fun one.  Links:  UiPath's Daniel Dines thinks automation can fight the great resignation | Decoder Daniel Dines: Why Agents Do Not Mean RPA is Fucked | Harry Stebbings UiPath to re-appoint Daniel Dines as CEO | UiPath UiPath shares tank 30% after company announces CEO shakeup | CNBC UiPath to lay off 10% of workforce in companywide restructuring | CNBC UiPath looks for a path to growth with Peak agentic AI acquisition | TechCrunch How RPA vendors aim to remain relevant in a world of AI agents | TechCrunch  UiPath finds firmer footing with pivot to general automation, AI | TechCrunch Transcript: https://www.theverge.com/e/643562 Credits: Decoder is a production of The Verge and part of the Vox Media Podcast Network.
