The Other Side of the (Bit)Coin with Ben McKenzie
Episode description as stored
As cryptocurrency continues to embed itself in American politics, Jon is joined by Ben McKenzie, author of "Easy Money" and director of "Everyone Is Lying to You for Money." Together, they investigate why digital currency appeals to those failed by traditional finance, examine how crypto reproduces and amplifies the same exploitative dynamics with even less regulation, and explore how it undermines democratic institutions while enriching the insiders closest to power. Plus, Jon talks pardons, TDS, and DMs!
