Bloomberg Technology launches “Foundering” podcast

Bloomberg’s technology team is launching a new podcast series Thursday called “Foundering.”

Each season, “Foundering” brings listeners inside a different high-stakes drama from Silicon Valley and around the world. Bloomberg Technology reporter Shelly Banjo tracks the rise of TikTok by taking listeners inside the mysterious Chinese mega-startup behind the phenomenon and the political hysteria that followed.

Shawn Wen is executive producer and creator of the podcast.

The first two episodes are available Thursday, with a new episode becoming available each of the following four weeks.
