Pablo Torre Finds Out · Ballmer's Secret I.O.U., Aspiration's "Web of Lies" and the Zenith of Fraud: Kawhi-Gate, Part XI · 5 Jun 2026 podcast

Give me back money.

And so Kawhi had the opportunity to say,

Hey, I don't want the shares.

I'll take the money.

but it's only as good as the credit of the person who gives the put.

So if you get a put and you put stock back and the stock is meaningless and also the person you are putting the stock back to doesn't have three nickels to rub together to make a dime,

then what's the use of the put?

So it doesn't eliminate all risk ever.

Ideally, you'd want that to be backed by a large company, a company that you feel could never go belly up, a company that will always have the ability to call back and take the stock back.

And that certainly was not the case with Aspiration.

For avoidance of doubt, any and all benefit to aspiration from the Kawhi deal is being subsidized by my contributing my equity to make this happen.

In conjunction with my offering to do that, I also explained verbally that Kawhi's team wanted his legal fees paid.

I'll state it here for you.

I am transferring 20 million of stock to Kauai over four years to enable this partnership for Aspiration.

The benefits that you will get from this partnership are subsidized by my 20 million of stock.

Regards, Joe.

Mr. Ballmer now understands that without his knowledge and contrary to the truth, Sandberg was touting a close relationship with Mr. Ballmer to other investors and using Mr. Ballmer's investments to attract additional similar investors.

This is particularly insidious given that other than greeting Sandberg at a Clippers game, they had barely spoken.

Indeed, Mr. Ballmer recalls speaking to Sandberg only once, and that was only briefly while they both attended a public event.

says, Hi, Joe.
