Interesting discussion! Question: If this was recorded Oct 17, why was it not posted until Oct 20? Trial coverage is timely news.

We should be judging M. Lewis for writing a deceptive book about SBF.

I respect Michael Lewis' work. This is why I am so puzzled by the struggle I hear in his words about Sam between what he knows happened, intentional and careless fraud, and the personal sympathy that he feels towards his subject. Matt Levine picks up on this but Michael Lewis does not want to acknowledge it. Was it hubris that Sam told him the truth? Because he clearly has not. He lied. He lies well, actually.

It would seem that a Harvard and Yale education doesn't like, guarantee, you won't, like, sound like a high school student.

I think at this point it's an affectation. He includes those 'likes' and 'ums' in his writing too.
