Editor-in-chief Alex Wood is heading back to the 1980s – well, a very specific, very sharp, and very bloody version of them. We're talking about the highly anticipated revival of American Psycho at the Almeida Theatre. Based on the cult-classic novel by Bret Easton Ellis, with a book by Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa and a synth-heavy score by Duncan Sheik, this production marks a significant moment for London theatre. It is the final production from Rupert Goold in his tenure as the Almeida's Artistic Director, revisiting the darkly satirical world of Wall Street that he first brought to life on this stage over a decade ago. We chat to Patrick Bateman himself, returning to the Almeida after The Line of Beauty, Arty Froushan, as well as Emily Barber, Zheng Xi Yong, Daniel Bravo, Tanisha Spring and Oli Higginson. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Send us a textWe're back in action with our full deep dive into the season premiere, "PayPal of Bukkake". We're introducing the star-studded lineup of new characters, exploring what seems to be an American Psycho thread running throughout the episode, and orienting ourselves within the new power structure within the world of "Industry" over a year after the demise of Pierpoint. Not only have the power dynamics shifted considerably amongst our returning stars, but we're shifting our focus away from high finance to fintech. We try to sleuth out the real-life fintech scandals upon which the episode may or may not be based, explain the mechanics of gating and redemptions at hedge funds, and tie together the real world legislation that is driving some of the show's key plot points. Along the way, we explore the episodes themes of fetishization, consent, agency, and power. Above all, we are confronted with the collapse of a founder friendship that feels like a reflection on the difficult creative decisions undertaken to drive the show in a new direction. We find ourselves with more questions than answers, a sense of a predator (or predators!) in our midst, and set the tone for a much more dangerous and ambitious season to come. Shop our Self Paced Courses: Investment Banking & Private Equity Fundamentals HEREFixed Income Sales & Trading HERE Wealthfront.com/wss.

David Wagner disagrees that the market was overconcentrated in 2025, pointing to international equities. He thinks the U.S. will outperform the rest of the world next year. His theme for next year is based on American Psycho: “we want to be psycho” about U.S. stocks, he says, adding that it's “hard to bet against” the Mag 7.

Boomer (from Podcast in the Woods) joins me to summarize Bret Easton Ellis' satirical look at terrible human beings disguised as established elites.    How much more graphic is the book version of AMERICAN PSYCHO and what are some surprising trivia about how it got greenlit?   What sequence of events actually did happen and which ones were in Patrick Bateman's demented mind?   Why was RULES OF ATTRACTION appropriate subject matter for Quentin Tarantino's partner-in-crime Roger Avery?   All that and other books by Ellis that could possibly be adapted in the future with the right satirical filmmaker!

As part of our Hidden Killers 2025 Year in Review series, we're revisiting the question that haunts this case — can studying crime actually teach someone how to commit it? When Bryan Kohberger, a Ph.D. student in criminology, was arrested for the brutal murders of four University of Idaho students, the irony was inescapable. The man studying the psychology of killers was suddenly accused of becoming one. But what makes this case so disturbing isn't just the alleged crime — it's the meticulous planning prosecutors say went into  it. In this two-part deep dive, Tony Brueski is joined by former felony prosecutor Eric Faddis and retired FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke to dissect the chilling contradictions of Kohberger's mind and methods. Faddis unpacks the mountain of circumstantial evidence: Amazon receipts for a combat knife, face mask, and sheath bought months before the murders; a phone that conveniently “went dark” the night of the killings; license plates swapped just days after; and trash runs in gloves at four in the morning. The prosecution says this wasn't just murder — it was an attempt at the perfect one. But can a defense argument of social awkwardness or autism spectrum behavior humanize a suspect accused of such precise brutality? Then, Dreeke dives into the psychology. What happens when curiosity about crime becomes a compulsion to control? Was Kohberger's alleged “research” into how criminals feel during their acts a window into his own fascination? From eerily timed online posts to that infamous mirror selfie that mirrors American Psycho and Psycho, Dreeke and Brueski explore how fantasy, narcissism, and obsession may have fused into something monstrous. And what about those alleged rap lyrics and digital “breadcrumb trails”? Were they bravado, confession, or taunt? When someone studies the mechanics of murder for years, do they start to believe they can outsmart the system that taught them?

Dark Side of Wikipedia | True Crime & Dark History

As part of our Hidden Killers 2025 Year in Review series, we're examining two of the most unnerving threads in the case against Bryan Kohberger — the alleged thumbs-up mirror selfie taken hours after the Idaho student murders, and the college paper that prosecutors say reveals the mind of a killer long before the crime. In this special combined episode, Tony Brueski brings together a powerful mix of expert voices — retired FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer, behavioral expert Robin Dreeke, and defense attorney Bob Motta — to unpack how two seemingly separate pieces of evidence might expose the psychology and planning behind one of the most disturbing crimes in modern memory. The selfie, allegedly timestamped 10:31 AM on November 13th, 2022, shows Kohberger clean-shaven, wearing a white button-up, giving a calm thumbs-up in front of a shower — while the victims still lay undiscovered just miles away. It's an image that feels ripped from American Psycho, echoing both Patrick Bateman's narcissism and Norman Bates' eerie detachment. Was it a subconscious taunt? A digital trophy? Or simply the reflection of a man who couldn't tell the difference between performance and reality? Then comes the academic paper that prosecutors now want admitted as evidence: “Crime-Scene Scenario Final.” Written in 2020 during Kohberger's criminology studies, the 12-page essay describes — in chilling detail — how to secure, process, and control a murder scene without leaving trace evidence. He even wrote about wearing “fiber-free protective gear” and checking neighbor alibis — years before a masked intruder allegedly slaughtered four students while leaving behind only one trace: DNA on a knife sheath. The episode breaks down what prosecutors call a pattern of preparation, bolstered by other alleged evidence — a balaclava receipt, phone pings near the crime scene, and the now-infamous Amazon purchase of a knife, sheath, and sharpener.

As part of our Hidden Killers 2025 Year in Review series, we're examining two of the most unnerving threads in the case against Bryan Kohberger — the alleged thumbs-up mirror selfie taken hours after the Idaho student murders, and the college paper that prosecutors say reveals the mind of a killer long before the crime. In this special combined episode, Tony Brueski brings together a powerful mix of expert voices — retired FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer, behavioral expert Robin Dreeke, and defense attorney Bob Motta — to unpack how two seemingly separate pieces of evidence might expose the psychology and planning behind one of the most disturbing crimes in modern memory. The selfie, allegedly timestamped 10:31 AM on November 13th, 2022, shows Kohberger clean-shaven, wearing a white button-up, giving a calm thumbs-up in front of a shower — while the victims still lay undiscovered just miles away. It's an image that feels ripped from American Psycho, echoing both Patrick Bateman's narcissism and Norman Bates' eerie detachment. Was it a subconscious taunt? A digital trophy? Or simply the reflection of a man who couldn't tell the difference between performance and reality? Then comes the academic paper that prosecutors now want admitted as evidence: “Crime-Scene Scenario Final.” Written in 2020 during Kohberger's criminology studies, the 12-page essay describes — in chilling detail — how to secure, process, and control a murder scene without leaving trace evidence. He even wrote about wearing “fiber-free protective gear” and checking neighbor alibis — years before a masked intruder allegedly slaughtered four students while leaving behind only one trace: DNA on a knife sheath. The episode breaks down what prosecutors call a pattern of preparation, bolstered by other alleged evidence — a balaclava receipt, phone pings near the crime scene, and the now-infamous Amazon purchase of a knife, sheath, and sharpener. Is the paper proof of intent, or just twisted irony? And could that mirror selfie — equal parts arrogance and emptiness — be the moment his mask slipped for good?

The ThawedCast: Conversations About Animation

Philip and Bridget discuss 'American Psycho,' a horror/thriller/Christian Bale vehicle from director Mary Harron. Released in 2000, the film is an adaptation of the 'American Psycho' novel by Bret Easton Ellis that is meant to be a grisly, satirical critique of 1980s corporate culture. Bale portrays Patrick Bateman, a young executive on Wall Street, who is obsessed with his looks and social status, his egocentric inner monologue serving as the film's narration. Along with concealing his terrible insecurity, his outward façade also serves to hide an insatiable bloodlust. A man whose existential void has left him bereft of his humanity, Bateman must deal with the maelstrom of chaos that surrounds him constantly, a desperate scenario placated--and reinforced--by his social standing.
