Description

Michael Lewis’s best-selling book The Big Short is now 15 years old. The Oscar-winning movie based on it came out a decade ago. To mark the occasion, Lewis has narrated a new audiobook of The Big Short. Here on his podcast, he and co-host Lidia Jean Kott are thinking about the legacy of the book, the movie, and the financial crisis of 2008. Michael catches up with the director of the movie, Adam McKay, as well as some of the real-life characters depicted by the likes of Ryan Gosling, Steve Carell and Jeremy Strong. He also calls up journalists, economists, and historians to make sense of the 2008 financial crisis and to understand how it still affects the world today.

Get your copy of The Big Short audiobook, narrated by Michael Lewis, on Audible, Spotify, Apple Books, pushkin.fm/bigshort or wherever you get audiobooks.

It's not at all surprising that an award-winning author would make an outstanding podcast. What is delightful is how relevant these sports ideas are for everyone. Recommended.
Definitely worth a listen for anyone who's interested in hearing about the world of "fairness". With a topic like that, you obviously get some interesting perspectives and stories.
We already knew Michael Lewis was a good writer. Now he's found a different way to tell stories; through a podcast. And he pulls it off surprisingly well: Against the Rules is an excellent podcast. It's well researched, narrated in a captivating way, and each episode tells a story that keeps one thinking long after listening. Whereas the first series focussed on the declining trust in empires, the second series recounts the emergence of coaches from different angles. Both are totally worth listening.
