Hi hi hi. With The Rings of Power Season 2 back soon (yikes) AND the upcoming The Lord of the Rings prequels, we realized we could not prolong the wait any longer. We had to sit Simon down to finally watch LOTR with us. And the results may surprise you...;)This episode is extra special to us because Ben, Simon and I watched the film together right before we recorded this. Which is also why I sound a tad tired and said Dark Towers vs Two Towers, please forgive me

This week Jen speaks with David Enrich about his nationwide bestseller, Servants of the Damned, praised by David Cay Johnston in the Washington Post as “A powerful and important picture of how mega law firms distort justice."   While other large corporate law firms appear in Servants of the Damned, David explains why he made one firm in particular the centerpiece. He views Jones Day as one of the chief enablers of the most corrupt actors over recent decades. Clients include Big Tobacco whom the firm continually represented in efforts to avoid products liability. Jones Day also represented Pudue Pharma, maker of the highly addictive OxyContin, the Catholic Church in efforts to minimize consequences for child-sexual-abuse, and Russian oligarchs. Jones Day even “laid some of the legal groundwork for Trump to challenge the legitimacy of the 2020 election,” David explains. David is the business investigations editor at The New York Times. His previous books were  Dark Towers, about Deutsche Bank and Donald Trump, and The Spider Network about UBS trader and apparent fall guy, Tom Hayes.

The NYT's Business Investigations Editor reveals the dark side of American law.

Servants of the Damned: Giant Law Firms, Donald Trump, and the Corruption of Justice by David Enrich The NYT's Business Investigations Editor reveals the dark side of American law. Delivering a "devastating" (Carol Leonnig) exposé of the astonishing yet shadowy power wielded by the world's largest law firms, David Enrich traces how one firm shielded opioid makers, gun companies, big tobacco, Russian oligarchs, Fox News, the Catholic Church, and much of the Fortune 500; helped Donald Trump get elected, govern, and evade investigation; masterminded the conservative remaking of the courts . . . and make a killing along the way.

Jones Day helped Trump fend off the Mueller investigation and challenged Obamacare. Its once and future lawyers defended Trump's Muslim ban and border policies and handled his judicial nominations. Jones Day even laid some of the legal groundwork for Trump to challenge the legitimacy of the 2020 election. But the Trump work is but one chapter in the firm's checkered history. Jones Day, like many of its peers, have become highly effective enablers of the business world's worst misbehavior. The firm has for decades represented Big Tobacco in its fight to avoid liability for its products. Jones Day worked tirelessly for the Catholic Church as it tried to minimize its sexual-abuse scandals. And for Purdue Pharma, the maker of OxyContin, as it sought to protect its right to make and market its dangerously addictive drug. And for Fox News as it waged war against employees who were the victims of sexual harassment and retaliation. And for Russian oligarchs as their companies sought to expand internationally. In this gripping and revealing new work of narrative nonfiction, Enrich makes the compelling central argument that law firms like Jones Day play a crucial yet largely hidden role in enabling and protecting powerful bad actors in our society, housing their darkest secrets, and earning billions in revenue for themselves.

Dark Towers : Deutsche Bank, Donald Trump and an Epic tale of Destruction by David EnrichThis is absolutely top notch, first class nonfiction written by the financial editor for the New York Times. It's about how Deutsche Bank were a conservative, upstanding German Bank (apart from the minor issue when they provided finance to build Auschwitz); and then decided to get into the UK and Wall Street at which point their new executives in those countries ran completely out of control and it's the most extraordinary account of corporate criminality and greed, and a company with no moral compass whatsoever. To get a foothold in the States, their best option was to do business with Donald Trump whom no other bank would touch. Trump is a relatively minor figure in all this but there are some nice insights. Deutsche had a spate of suicides at their senior executive level and the son of one of those men turned sleuth to find out what had really been going on in the company. It's wonderful.Sheerwater by Leah SwannFiction, set in Victoria, Australia. A young mother escaping a bad relationship stops to help when a plane crashes beside the highway, and when she comes back to the car her children have gone. This is a story of missing children, fractured relationships and the desperate search for two young kids who mysteriously disappear on their way to their new lives – an excellent thriller.

"In Dark Towers, David Enrich tells the story of how one of the world's mightiest banks careened off the rails, threatening everything from our financial system to our democracy through its reckless entanglement with Donald Trump. Darkly fascinating and yet all too real, it's a tale that will keep you up at night." (John Carreyrou, Pulitzer Prize winner and New York Times best-selling author of Bad Blood) A searing exposé of the most scandalous bank in the world, including its shadowy ties to Donald Trump's business empire

President Trump has a complicated financial history. When he was running for president in 2016 he refused to release his tax returns. Presidential candidates who are interested in providing some transparency regarding their financial records will usually disclose such information. He said he could not release his tax returns because they were under audit but that he would release them eventually. That was three years ago and he continues to block any efforts to have that information revealed. Donald Trump has obtained many loans over the years to finance his business interests. When he was running for president it was important for him to be able to say that he was able to obtain business loans. He borrowed about two billion dollars from Deutsche Bank over the years and that financial institution had been his lender of choice. In fact, they seemed to be the only bank in recent years that would still agree to make loans to him. The New York Times journalist David Enrich has written a

Usually attributed to Balzac is the observation that behind every great fortune is a great crime. In this day and age, It might be paraphrased as that behind every great financial crime is a great bank. In the case of many such crimes in the 20th and 21st century lies Deutsche Bank. In its efforts to grow it did away with all traditional ideas of risk management. In its pursuit of fees and earnings, bank executives got into business with some of the world’s most shady and financially needy characters. Russian oligarchs, the Trumps, the Kushners, the Mercers, Vladimir Putin, and many other key Russiagate figures were among their customers. It got involved with other banks in Germany, Moscow, Cyprus, and Moldavia; money laundering; real estate deals; hedge funds; indictments; bankruptcies; and a cast of characters orbiting it that feels more like the bar scene in the original Star Wars. Trying to tie all of this together into one overarching narrative is David Enrich in his book Dark Towers: Deutsche Bank, Donald Trump, and an Epic Trail of Destruction My conversation with David Enrich:

David Enrich is the Business Investigations Editor at the New York Times and Author of Dark Towers: Deutsche Bank, Donald Trump and an Epic Trail of Destruction. In this conversation, David and Anthony discuss the time he was threatened with jail, asked not to appear on a national television show, the 200+ interviews that went into writing Dark Towers, Deutsche Bank helping the Nazis build Auschwitz, manipulating markets, violating international sanctions to aid terrorist regimes, scamming investors, defrauding regulators, and laundering money for Russian oligarchs.

Washington Post Foreign Policy Columnist Josh Rogin and David Enrich, Author of Dark Towers, join Michael Isikoff and Daniel Klaidman on "Skullduggery." First Rogin discusses the philosophical duties as a reporter when you receive oppo research from a source unwilling to be named. In this case, research potentially harmful to Bernie Sanders. Then, Enrich returns to update the Trump / Deutsche Bank scandal, now headed to the Supreme Court, and whether Trump's loan information with ever see the light of day.

David Enrich discusses "Dark Towers," and Kiran Millwood Hargrave talks about "The Mercies."

On this edition of Parallax, New York Times reporter David Enrich's new book Dark Towers: Deutsche Bank, Donald Trump and an Epic Trail of Destruction has received much press lately for casting a light on the subject of the Trump family's relationship to the scandal-prone Deutsche Bank and potentially shady financial transactions involving Russian money. Although opinions vary on the matter of the purported relationship Trump and the Russian government, even on the left, the investigative news website Forensic News has recently published two pieces on the subject of Trump, Deutsche Bank, and the Russian-based VTB Bank and Gazprombank. Joining us to discuss these recent articles, "Trump Deutsche Bank Loans Underwritten By Russian State-Owned Bank, Whistleblower Told FBI" and "Russian Government Bank Deposited $500 Million into Deutsche Bank Subsidiary as it Lent to Trump", and to discuss Enrich's book are investigative journalist Scott Stedman and whisteblower Val Broeksmit. Val, who is in large part the subject of Ernich's Dark Towers, is the son of William Broeksmit, a high-ranking Wall Street executive who committed suicide in the aftermath of the global financial crisis. After the suicide, Val came into possession of a treasure trove of his father's emails and documents related to Deutsche Bank. He has since taken those documents to the FBI is currently collaborating with Forensic News on the Trump/Deutsche Bank/VTB Bank/Gazprombank story. In this conversation Val gives an unfiltered background on his life, how he came into possession of his father's documents, his rocky relationship with David Enrich, and much more. Scott discusses the documents Val has shared and why he believes they are relevant as well as summarizing the Trump/Deutsche Bank/VTB Bank/Gazprombank stories and why he and Forensic News believe they are worthy of consideration. Additionally, Scott explains why he defends the credibility of Val. Regardless of your take on the issue of Trump and Russia, I hope this is fascinating conversation. I can assure you that Val is definitely never boring and Scott is a fount of knowledge. All that and more on this edition of Parallax Views. SUPPORT PARALLAX VIEWSON PATREON!

Author David Enrich has written a new and carefully researched book on Trump's finances, and the man's ties to oligarchs via huge Deutsche Bank loans that bailed out his failed businesses. Thom welcomes the author, and reads from his book 'Dark Towers: Deutsche Bank, Donald Trump and an Epic Trail of Destruction'.And, economist Richard Wolff considers how and when the seemingly endless inflation of debt might end for the American economy...Plus, Thomas Palley, economist and co-editor of Keynesian Economics, on why the economy should welcome, not fear Bernie Sanders and a return to New Deal Keynesianism.

Crazy news and crazy rumors take center stage on today's podcast! 00:58 – We begin by remembering two people who left us recently. The renowned voice actor, Brice Armstrong, and J.R.R. Tolkien's son, Christopher Tolkien. 02:19 – While Disney confirmed a second season for THE MANDALORIAN, Amazon has decided not to go ahead with DARK TOWERS, and HBO just announced that the very well received WATCHMEN will not be renewed. That last one was a surprise since Watchmen ended on a cliff-hanger. 06:59 – Brian caught PARASITE and he explains why the hype is completely justified. 10:10 – Amongst untrue rumors, the two recent gems were LucasFilm shelving the OBI-WAN series and Marvel delaying HAWKEYE. 12:41 - Seth MacFarlane signs a $200 million deal with NBC, sparking rumors of shows he created, like FAMILY GUY, getting cancelled. We talk about why that's unlikely. 13:57 – DOCTOR DOLITTLE shocks Mandy by being out in theaters. It's also on its way to losing a $100 million. We send condolences to Universal for managing to create something else that's tanking faster than their CATS. 19:29 – Mandy's watched THE WITCHER and she has one solid advice – don't be afraid to rewatch the episodes. While the time-lines might leave you confused, the story will not. And the foreshadowing makes it all worth it. 26:44 – Finally, we come to the reason for our existence – reviewing DOCTOR WHO! After the midseason trailer, we know we're in for more nail-biting. And the fourth episode brings us a surprising moral quandary – should business or creativity take the lead for innovation?
