Against the Rules with Michael Lewis
Добавлен 4 ноя 2024
Journalist and bestselling author Michael Lewis explores the figures in American life who rely on the public’s trust, whether in sports, in business, in the courtroom, or on TV. What happens when that trust erodes and we can no longer agree on what’s fair and what’s not?
In the latest season of his podcast, Michael takes on America’s newest form of legalized gambling, sports betting, and how it’s changing what it means to be a player…a teenager…and most of all, a fan.

Against the Rules decides to explore this murky world by signing up for mule-dom with one of the world’s most skilled sports bettors.

As a US Senator, he had a chance to codify some of them into law and prevent the rise of sports betting. But at the same time, others in Bradley's state were making huge money on this illicit form of gambling. Seaso...

The Sanchez Problem | Against the Rules with Michael Lewis
I was a beta tester for DFS ~2007. I thought it was a very cleaver workaround the UIEGA but other than that I didn’t think much of it until I saw the million dollar prizes and knew they would make a killing.
I bet this podcast will be a big success ❤
I a m a dyslectic ...never was able to learn either grammar nor orthograph....was taken down , humiliated....And yes ! the world has lost someone in me. Assholds
As usual, when you delve into something it matters. I watched your interview entitled "The Real Reason Trump Has Appeal" and found it particularly revelatory, especially about the rise of socially disconnected people able to exploit computer and communication technology, despite and because of their social isolation. You see things in people. I look forward to seeing your observations on sports gambling.
This is great! Michael should scrap the whole podcast concept and run with, "my producer tries things outside her comfort zone." Lydia goes skydiving. Lydia becomes a deckhand on a towboat. Lydia infiltrates a drug cartel. Can't wait for the next episode!
Nate knows his numbers!
Please read Amaranthine: How to Create a Regenerative Civilization Using Artificial Intelligence
Thank you Michael Lewis for telling the stories of the unsung heroes!
Great story. The way Joe describes his plan to kill hiimself with as little pain as possible makes me suspect he'd read Jack London's 'Martin Eden' as that is the way the hero, Martin Eden, kills himself at the end of Jack's book.
See 'The Coming Plague' by Laurie Garrett published 1994. Yeah, well Michael, if you have not done so read this book.
This is unbelievable. I guess they didn't realize there's an entire business entity called revenue cycle that does this. The professional discipline is called health informatics. No really. It's a thing. A big thing. Did they talk to anyone in healthcare besides this lady in this one badly managed medical practice who sounds like she basically trained herself? You should do another show on why people reinvent the wheel when the wheel is right next to them.
Are you suggesting that someone at HBS (where business law is part of the curriculum, of course) doesn't understand that they're not supposed to break the law?
"Please listen responsibly." Love it! Looking forward to listening and learning.
Holy cow - I just had my wife check her student loan repayment details - my my my
Heartfelt and inspiration. Thank you for sharing!
Michael is one of America’s true blue (or black and white striped) blessings. Bob.
This show needs a new edit protocol. Extremely confusing and annoying. Guarantee if you look at the stats, you lost 90% of your listeners when you completely changed the subject and story.
Bankruptcy is a setback, not a defeat. Hopefully, others will seek professional help from watching your videos.
“Come live with us”!
I tell everyone that John McPhee is my favorite author but Michael Lewis is coming up on the outside!
I didn’t use a coaching service for my GMAT. I merely took practice tests. But I scored in the 97th percentile.
Failing to react to evidence is wrong! I respect those that will judge and react to evidence!
Why did we have 20% of the COVID pandemic deaths with only 4% of the population? Because the plan was not used! Whose decision was that?
Carter Mesher and Charity Dean and Dr. Hatchet helped reduce the number of lives lost in the pandemic but they would have been more effective if they had been informed earlier!
Now I am terrible at math, finance and everything in between. But it does not make sense to take out a loan to invest it in something as unpredictable as crypto. And why yes, Discover and Chase are both multi billion dollar companies, of COURSE they will want their money back? Did he think they would be like womp womp and move on ? If they did everyone would take out a loan and not pay it back…. I feel bad but jesus christ man.
SBF literally stole investors money out of their personal accounts and gave much of it to political causes. He was one of Biden’s largest contributors in the 2020 election. Mmmmm I wonder why there is only a tiny fraction of the villianization from the media that Madoff got. Haven’t heard of anyone returning the stolen money from any of the political causes he donated to either.
Every body has "the Universe inside", instantaneous reference-framing of Conscience distilled from memory associations. Gothic is derived from God Thick, an overdose of book-learning instructions. Of note is that replacement of Egyptian learning by doing experience of not doing bad things in the sense of Gold-Silver Rule sense-in-common cause-effect, and the sum-of-all-histories Confession at the "end of days" for the experiencer with "legal instructions" of Ten Commandments devious people love to defy. How does a "Confessional" operate if the Confessor has fore-given themselves because of displaced responsibility to a Commercial representative of Conscience. This is half-truth happening, "I am you and you are me and we are all together" is true, but unless the representative of Conscience actually repairs any perceived damage caused by what was carelessly given, plus or minus, in connection with Gold-Silver innate responsibility of,by, for people, in default social responsibility for participation in their.., mathematically-legitimate, and therby perceived economically complex values-> legal authentication, metastable proportioning probability exchanges.., community. The search for bio-logical stability connection continues.
The Zen of Motor Mechanics..
SBF's parents are up to their eyeballs in the fraud as well. No mercy. Claw back every $$$ they earned and prosecute for being accessories to Sam.
Damn 10-25 years doesn’t seem long enough for how much damage he’s done to so many. People get more than that from just getting caught with drugs even when they have no evidence of any direct harm caused to anyone by the person… crazy…. And I think drug possession sentences as they are now is immoral and way too long… but for this case it just seems so serious
1:29 START
This is what the actual meaning of the word "Freedom" is in opposition to democratic mutual respect, much like the predator-prey arrangements of the Serengeti and the Admirable Creighton.
On theme, Professor Bill Black called Looting the financial system "Control Fraud", and if you have been a victim of fraud of any kind, this is just another aspect-version of failure of/to trust in authentication and authority, and licensing in general within a society we were raised in good faith to believe in.., carefully choosing words that are the actual problem and the difference between factual knowledge and fictitious fraud. It is the Observable constant problem in understanding Truth in Labelling(?).
By coincidence, co inside-outside holographic positioning, my wife is learning to sing, a bit. The whole message of Temporal Totality, the Observable constant Eternity-now Interval expressed in/of Euler's e-Pi-i 1-0-infinity Unity, linear Sublimation-Tunnelling duration-spacing jumps in nodal-vibrational density-intensity real-numberness and 2-ness i-reflection containment in log-antilog potential oscillation 3-ness Cavity Resonance in 3D-T, WYSIWYG, hollowed out crystallisation spherical harmonics, and so on.., is the searh for meaning in/of "Who Am I?".
Look, listen, hear and see what unity-connection resonance now-means, a WYSIWYG probabilistic state of harmony by default logic of temporal/holographic mechanics in projection-drawing quantization bonding proportioning, ie time-timing sync-duration, the whole bit! TINA
"Why would you want to be a Policeman", is the same question as why do you want to Be?..Here Now in good conscience.., because the alternative is always accumulating the wrong way to do what is right/correct, and stay with bio-logical metastable Eternity-now Actuality.
And this is the Trust in Licenced Authority story.., the real reason for Governments bsaed in religious/rigorous repetition of "character building" models, and leave it to the individual to work it out and take a "democratic" position on what, how and why inside-outside holographic positioning presence in Actuality is not what it seems superficially. Verification of actual cause-effect Truth, is subject to the Uncertainty Principle, Absolutely. When a Licensed Trader, or Lawyer of this type involved in legal contracts violates you (religiously/rigorously) presumed sense of morality issuing from the Government Authority to all citizens swearing allegiance to the elected government, ..as one Lawyer put it to me, "getting a loan from the Bank is like selling your soul", and that Lawyer felt no compunction in aiding a partner in destroying our partnership.., and the Government Authority gave tacic approval. No one, except for Michael and a few others, questions the legitimacy of a government elected by misinformed citizens and the total demoralisation of the inherently Gold-Silver Rule of moral purpose, of Democratic Elections. (?)
"My Grandfather 's axe" stories, it still works as an axe even though it's had two replacement heads and four handles, which is the fundamental elemental e-Pi-i sync-duration property of the Universe.., in continuous re-evolution of forms required to replace required functions of bio-logical metastable proportioning probability continuity. Who am I going to identify as the real-time Artist of continuous creation reiteration. Everyone all-ways all-at-once here-now-forever..?
The guy that cleared $50,000 (after taxes) on $150,000 of revenue in 3 months is not thinking big enough. The solution to consumer finance problems is to live in a village where all the companies are tenant owned or worker owned and controlled.
too much vocal fry
I'm still trying to understand how this court had jurisdiction.
ABC is reporting that Chengpeng Zhao is pleading guilty to money laundering.
Lewis is a disingenuous person. I question much of the big shirt now. Not a trustworthy pe4son
You really shouldn't It was a really large shirt.
4:16 Michael literally says the jury wouldn't be able to understand that Sam wasn't answering the question?! Really?? His BS word salad I think only fooled you out of the entire world..
SBF is a fraud. Lewis is a clown, and not a very entertaining one.
Nonsense.
Borrowing money to place it on investments, i.e., to make risky bets 🤦🤦🤦. This is how you create The Great Depression.
The former prosecutor says white collar criminals don’t get long sentences because judges don’t think it is needed for deterrence. It is more likely that these defendants like Elizabeth Holmes get light sentences because they are so like the judges - Ivy League educations, high performing, white.
Do all of you say all homeless men wearing shorts & T 👚 shirt these guys are honest and nothing to hide?😅😅😅Bellshill,you are all mesmerised with free PRIVATE PLANE NFL events and same applies to his criminal parents
Why should the parents be let off the hook?
What are you accusing the parents of doing?
22:55 "I hope the world doesn't go after them..." Why not, Mike? They are their son's co-crooks, so why not going after them? Keep digging Michael, digging your hole deeper...You're becoming the Giuliani of the printing press.
