The monster was exploding.

Yet on the streets of Manhattan, there was no sign anything important had just happened.

Now, 15 years after the Big Short's original release, and a decade after it became an Academy Award-winning movie, I've recorded an audiobook edition for the very first time.

The Big Short story, what it means when people start betting against the market, and who really pays for an unchecked financial system, is as relevant today as it's ever been, offering invaluable insight into the current economy and also today's politics.

Get The Big Short now at pushkin.fm slash audiobooks, or wherever audiobooks are sold.

It's awkward.

It's Tuesday.

It's Awkward Tuesday phone call.

When you're in a relationship with someone for long enough, it's natural to worry about them.

You start thinking like, are they eating healthy enough to live a long, happy life with me?

Are they dressing nice enough to attend this fancy dinner with me?

Are they not drinking enough at this house party?

So everyone's going to think we're the boring couple.

What?

These are the things you worry about?

You can't be fun without alcohol?

Jeff, who do you hang out with?

These are just natural things that come up in normal relationships.

Not that you would know anything about that, but one of our listeners says he's been worrying about his girlfriend lately and doesn't know where else to turn.

So we're going to be here for him in his moment of need.
