About this episode

This week, Jacob Silverman reveals why the chances of accused grifter/crypto bro Sam Bankman-Fried beating the government’s rap in his trial for fraud grow slimmer by the day. Then, speaking of revealing, William D. Cohan tells us about a rather curious law in France that he learned of the hard way. Let’s just say that it forbids men from wearing their own bathing suits in some public spaces. And finally, Jill Kargman shares everything you need to know about the under-the-radar outdoor music festival that’s become Coachella for the .01 percent. All this and more make it a show you won’t want to miss.
