Sam and Emma host Ryan Grim, DC Bureau Chief at The Intercept, to discuss his new bombshell report “The Bigger Short” on how the Wall St housing crisis of 2008 could happen again, this time in commercial real estate. Grim shares foreboding research that shows up to a third of all commercial real estate loans might be fraudulent in their valuation. Ryan details how the Fed might address this potential fraud and what the ripple effects are in the market.
