    excellent interview. sbf is on the witness stand as i’m typing this. it is lightly raining outside, and i have a candle burning. my cat is asleep beside me. life is good.

    Appreciated this guest so much. She has so many observations that fill in some major blanks for me.

    Poor SBF! He probably thought all those celebs and politicians really liked him, for his sparkling personality! He had to learn the hard way - when there's a whiff of trouble and/or you are not perceived as super rich anymore you are dropped like a hot potato!

    I agree Cas .. Her writing absolutely gives ya that feeling of actually being there 👏✌️.. Appreciate ya Fellas 👊

    One of the things I love about your channel is that you guys always seem to ask the exact questions I’m wondering about and then go 2, 3 levels deeper

    oh wow great chat! I love any journalist who can use the expression 'chuckleheads'. 😂 Every time I see a picture of SBF I think of that judge/prosecutor exchange from Idiocracy: Judge: Why do you think he's guilty? Prosecutor: Well I mean, just look at him.

    CAN'T WAIT TO HEAR SAM WHINE AND CRY ON THE STAND.

    SBF STILL thinks he can talk his way out of trouble. Such an intelligent person, but so deluded.

  • @jaredbissenden6230
    @jaredbissenden6230

    Based on some of the discourse online, I'm genuinely wondering if SBF actually cares if he's found guilty.

    Another one for the playlist. Thank you!

    Kate Baker's coverage for The Ringer was excellent right through to the end of the trial. It would be great if you can get her back on now that it's over, to talk about SBF's testimony and the lightning fast

    Congrats Cas on your appearance in the Bloomberg documentary “Ruin.” It’s a really well made film and captures a very interesting time in history.

    A fantastic guest; as has been mentioned she has some very interesting insights. One of your best episodes ever. Well done.

    How can you be a journalist and use”like “ every other word?!?!?

    FTX was similar to MLM's in the sense that the customers/investors became the Venture Capitalist lenders the way the employees become the customers in MLM's. SBF got interest free loans to pay off some of the VC loans so he didn't have to pay high interest to the VC's. When those funds/ loans from customer funds came due with interest, SBF switched them to a non interest accounts.

    Is this a competition to see who can fit the word "like" into their speech the most frequently?

  • @aerotube7291
    @aerotube7291

    Good show guys. I've watched a fair few(non investor)...The explorations in defence of decency and acknowledgement of emotional flow on effects and breakdown of grey areas by Bennet in a previous episose was attention grabbing for me.

    Just when you think you have seen it all LOL. I like the long build up to your explanation of the Villain of the moment. Good dialogue Katie!
