About this episode
In May of this year, we interviewed Sam Bankman-Fried, the young billionaire philanthropist who started the crypto exchange FTX.
Last week, in a matter of a few days, FTX collapsed and filed for bankruptcy, and Sam resigned. It's unclear if customers or investors will ever get their money back.
In light of the news, we are replaying the episode -- and trying to figure out what to make of everything Sam told us earlier this year.
