We are joined by David Z. Morris, a crypto journalist who has been covering the trial of Sam Bankman-Fried. We hear from David about what’s been revealed and made clear during the trial as major witnesses from FTX give testimony — and we learn that the cult of personality around SBF, and his interpersonal manipulation of others, really was much deeper and darker than people realized.
