Cautionary Tales Presents: Hot Money

 

This week, we're sharing an episode from a new podcast brought to you by Pushkin Industries and the Financial Times. The series is hosted by Tim’s colleagues, reporter Patricia Nilsson and editor Alex Barker.  

In this episode, Patricia and Alex wonder how it's legal for porn sites to host millions of videos uploaded by uses. The answer is in the story of an Ohio family in the early 1990s.

Stick around until the end to hear Tim interview Alex and Patricia on their reporting on the shadowy power structure that includes billionaires, tech geniuses and the most power finance companies in the world.
