Bienvenidos a un nuevo episodio de “Cinefilia y Otras Hierbas”. Soy su anfitrión, José Enrique Guzmán, y hoy el estudio se llena de una cadencia muy especial. Hoyno necesitamos explosiones, ni persecuciones de autos, ni coreografías de artes marciales para dejarlos al borde del asiento.Hoy el espectáculo está en la palabra.Continuamos con nuestro Ciclo de Aaron Sorkin, el guionista que convirtió el diálogo en cine de acción puro. Sorkin es un cirujano del verbo; sus personajes no hablan para comunicarse, hablan para competir, para desafiar, para devorarse entre sí. La calidad de su diálogo tiene una musicalidad y una precisión milimétrica donde una coma mal puesta puede arruinar una escena completa. Sus palabrascortan, emocionan y tienen el mismo ritmo frenético que una persecución a trescientos kilómetros por hora en una autopista.Y la prueba reina de esto es la película que nos convoca hoy: “Steve Jobs” (2015). Una genialidad interpretada de manera magistral por Michael Fassbender, dirigida por la energía cinética de Danny Boyle y acompañada por una descomunal Kate Winslet.La historia de cómo se gestó esta producción es casi tan dramática como la película misma.Tras el éxito de La Red Social, Sony quería repetir la fórmula. Scott Rudin, el productor, le llevó el proyecto a Sorkin basándose en la monumental biografía de Walter Isaacson. Originalmente, David Fincher iba a dirigirla y Christian Bale iba a ser Jobs, pero tras exigencias de presupuesto y un cambiode estudio que llevó el proyecto a Universal, Fincher quedó fuera y entró Danny Boyle. Bale renunció porque, según se cuenta, sintió que el volumen y la velocidad del diálogo de Sorkin eran una montaña humana imposible de escalar.Fue ahí donde apareció Fassbender para darnos la interpretación de su vida.Pero el verdadero milagro de esta obra radica en la estructura de su guion. Esta película merecía y merece muchísimo más reconocimiento del que tuvo en su momento, a pesar de las nominaciones al Oscar para Fassbender y Winslet. Sorkindesafió todas las leyes de la biopic tradicional. Esta no es unapelícula al uso de "nació, creció, inventó una computadora y murió" No. Sorkin estructuró el guion como una obra de teatro en tres actos perfectos, donde toda la acción ocurre tras bambalinas, exactamente 40 minutos antes de tres de los lanzamientos más importantes de la carrera de Jobs.Seamos claros desde ahora mismo: esto no es un documental. Si vienes buscando rigor histórico absoluto o una cronología exacta de los hechos, estás en el lugar equivocado. Al igual que pasó con La Red Social, Sorkin se toma licencias dramáticas gigantescas. En la vida real, Steve Jobs nunca tuvo esas confrontaciones operísticas con su mano derecha Joanna Hoffman, con Steve Wozniak, con John Sculley y con su hija Lisa, todas juntas en un pasillo, minutos antes de salir a cambiar el mundo. Eso no pasó así.Pero esa es la magia de la dramatización. Es un recurso creativo brillante para hacer un estudio de personaje profundo, descarnado y fascinante. Sorkin utiliza esos 40minutos de tensión previa a los eventos para desnudar el mito, para confrontar al genio con la gente que lo rodeaba y para explorar el costo humano de la genialidad. Es un lienzo dramático magnífico, una tragedia shakesperianamoderna en la era de Silicon Valley.Hoy, en Cinefilia y Otras Hierbas, vamos a analizar a profundidad los tres actos de este guion, la puesta en escena de Boyle y cómo el diálogo puede ser el efectoespecial más poderoso del cine.Empezamos.Patreon: patreon.com/cinefiliayotrashierbasCorreo: cinefiliayotrashierbas@gmail.comNo olviden suscribirse, compartir este episodio y dejar un comentario y un like, eso nos ayudará a crecer y a encontrar más audiencia.¡Que lo disfruten!#AaronSorkin #MichaelFassbender #Cine #KateWinslet #DannyBoyle
It's Friday, May 22nd, A.D. 2026. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Adam McManus Pakistani Muslim man abducts and marries 14-year-old Christian girl A married Pakistani Muslim, 41-year-old Arshad Habib, who already had three wives, abducted a 14-year-old Christian girl on May 12th. He forcibly converted her to Islam and married her, exploiting her epilepsy and mental health vulnerabilities to sexually abuse her, reports Morning Star News. The girl's father, Abbas Masih, a daily wage laborer and member of a local Brethren church in Lahore, the Pakistani capital, said his daughter, Nisha, disappeared on May 12th while working as a domestic helper at a Muslim household. Police showed the father documents claiming Nisha had converted to Islam on February 15 and married Habib three days later. According to Open Doors, Pakistan is the eighth most oppressive country worldwide for Christians.

We have a spending problem. Jeff Bezos, the founder of Amazon, gave CNBC co-anchor Andrew Sorkin a reality check on how ludicrous the Left's tax-the-rich scheme really is when measured up against the data during the May 20th edition of Squawk Box, reports NewsBusters.org. Sorkin tried cornering Bezos on the bevy of headlines in the media excoriating billionaires, decrying their wealth accumulation, and vilifying them for supposedly not paying their fair share in taxes. Bezos was not fazed. BEZOS: “I think what's going on is that it's kind of a tale of two economies. So, you have a bunch of people in this country who are doing really well. But you also have a bunch of people in this country who are struggling -- rent, groceries. “A nurse in Queens, who makes $75,000 a year, pays more than $12,000 a year in taxes. Does that really make sense? How about we start by having the nurse in Queens not pay taxes at all. “The bottom half of income earners in this country pay only 3% of the taxes. The top 1% of taxpayers pay 40% of all the tax revenue. We don't have a revenue problem in this country. We actually have a spending problem.” Jeff Bezos gave an example of how spending more money is not necessarily an iron-clad guarantee of fixing a problem. BEZOS: “The New York City school system: They spend $44,000 per student. That's 30% more per student than other big cities like Chicago, L.A., and Boston. And it's three times more than Miami and Houston. By the way, New York City doesn't get better outcomes. “If we ran Amazon the way New York City runs their school system, your packages would take six weeks to arrive, we'd have to charge you a $100 delivery fee, and then, when the package did finally arrive, it'd have the wrong item in it anyway.” Homosexual former Congressman Barney Frank died Former Democratic Congressman Barney Frank of Massachusetts, a self-avowed homosexual, died May 19th at the age of 86 after entering hospice care at his home in Maine last month due to congestive heart failure, reports The Western Journal. According to The New York Times, he came out of the sexual perversion closet publicly in an interview with The Boston Globe in the spring of 1987, saying, "If you ask the direct question: 'Are you gay?' the answer is: 'Yes. So what?' " He was the first open homosexual in Congress and the first one to be faux married in July 2012. Frank met his faux “husband,” Jim Ready, 30 years his junior, at a homosexual political fundraiser in Maine. Appearing on NBC's Meet the Press in March 2015, Congressman Frank was asked this question by Chuck Todd. TODD: “You're trying to answer this conundrum. Gay rights were once reviled publicly and Congress was revered. Now, those attitudes have flipped. How did that happen?” FRANK: “Our reality, as gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender people, beat the prejudice. The essential mechanism is there, that we stopped hiding. And it turned out we weren't what the stereotype was. “There was a point when the notion that I could get married to Jim [Ready] while I was still in Congress, would have been the most bizarre possibility. And by the time I got married, someone said, ‘Well, was it controversial that you get married while you were still in Congress?' And the answer was, ‘Yes, it was. A lot of my colleagues were mad that they didn't get invited.'” TODD: (laughs) In an attempt to deflect from the importance of legislating morality on social issues, like homosexual faux marriage and abortion, Congressman Frank said, “The issue is not that morals be applied to public policy. It's that conservatives bring public policy to spheres of our lives where it should not enter.” But Proverbs 29:2 says, “When the righteous thrive, the people rejoice; when the wicked rule, the people groan.” Barney Frank retired from Congress in 2013 and went on to serve as a political commentator, writer, and public figure. Colorado teacher prohibited 7th grader from reading pro-life poem in class And finally, a Colorado teacher at Drake Middle School refused to allow a seventh-grade student to present her pro-life poem in class because it was deemed “offensive,” reports LifeSiteNews.com. GIRL: “My teacher assigned an assignment in class to write a slam poem about a conflict in the world that we are passionate about. I chose life. I chose this topic because it's important to me and my family. In my poem, I met all of the criteria. I got reputable resources. And I included everything that I needed in my poem.” The opening of the 13-year-old's poem said, “A life is a life, no matter how small. Seventy-three million people have been killed in one year when they are completely innocent humans. They never get to see the light of day before they are cast away. They did nothing wrong except exist and were dismissed. People say women need health care but never think how unfair. They kill baby for simply being there! The Word of God says [in Psalm 139:13], ‘You knit me together in my mother's womb.' How come we never listen to this and try to send them to the tomb?” The teacher reportedly tried to kick the girl out of class during other students' presentations which slammed the Second Amendment and championed sexual perversion. The girl's mother said her own mother became pregnant at age 14 and chose life, resulting in strong pro-life convictions in her own family.

Tonight on TV Party Tonight, Jesse and Mark revisit Season One of HBO's The Newsroom, Aaron Sorkin's cable news drama that premiered June 24, 2012. Starring Jeff Daniels as anchor Will McAvoy, the series follows the staff of fictional network ACN as they attempt to produce serious journalism inside a system driven by ratings, corporate pressure, and personal dysfunction. Featuring Emily Mortimer, Olivia Munn, Sam Waterston, Dev Patel, Alison Pill, John Gallagher Jr., and Thomas Sadoski, the show blends newsroom chaos with Sorkin's signature rapid-fire dialogue and moral grandstanding. Critics praised the performances—Daniels won an Emmy—and the ambition of the series, while others criticized its smug tone, hindsight politics, and lecture-heavy writing. More than a decade later, The Newsroom remains a fascinating time capsule of the early 2010s media landscape and the growing battle between journalism, entertainment, and outrage culture.Disclaimer: The following may contain offensive language, adult humor, and/or content that some viewers may find offensive – The views and opinions expressed by any one speaker does not explicitly or necessarily reflect or represent those of Mark Radulich or W2M Network.Mark Radulich and his wacky podcast on all the things:https://linktr.ee/markkind76alsohttps://www.teepublic.com/user/radulich-in-broadcasting-networkFB Messenger: Mark Radulich LCSWTiktok: @markradulichtwitter: @MarkRadulichInstagram: markkind76RIBN Album Playlist: https://suno.com/playlist/91d704c9-d1ea-45a0-9ffe-5069497bad59

McKay's focus today is on the power of discovering what lies within ourselves, and he begins by introducing the story of Aaron Sorkin. Armed with a passion for drama and theater from an early age, it wasn't until Aaron dared to fail that he found success. His story serves as a testament to the power of daring to fail and discovering what lies within us.McKay also shares the stories of Eric and Laura, individuals who both faced adversity and overcame it to find success. Their stories, along with Sorkin's, inspire us all to embrace our own journeys and discover our potential. They also teach us that, to find what lies within us, we must be resilient, determined, and willing to let go of what we cannot do, while remembering who we are and where we came from. Mckay's words of wisdom here today, combined with these powerful narratives, empower us all to discover the very best that lies within us.Episode Highlights:Open Your Eyes' two-year anniversary Aaron Sorkin's storyHow the best that lies within us can lead to remarkable successEric and Laura's stories of overcoming adversity and finding success Embracing our journeys and discovering our potentialThe power of resilience and determinationLetting go of what we cannot doRemembering who we are and where we came fromDiscovering the best that lies within youQuotes:"The best that lies within you is waiting to be discovered.”"Success is not the absence of failure; it's the persistence through failure.""Daring to fail is not about wanting to fail. It's about recognizing that failure is a possibility, and deciding to take the risk anyway.""Believe in yourself, and the rest will fall into place.""The most important thing to do is to get started, even if it's a small step.""The things I cannot do, I will let go. But the things I can do, I will learn to do well.""She continued to write, and she became a successful author, living out her passion for writing about horses and racing.""To find what lies within you, you may need to remember who you are and where you came from."Links:https://www.mckaychristensen.org/
Matt Saracen has a grandma. And a job. Oh, and he’s now officially QB1, after Jason Street learns he will never walk again. Lyla can’t stop visiting Jason, but Tim won’t even start. And Coach Taylor has a lot of pressure. But with the clear eyes of Lex and Brian guiding you through, dear listener, you can’t lose. Lex Friedman and Brian Warren.
“You can't handle the truth!” But can you handle finally watching A Few Good Men? In this episode of Missing Frames, Shawn introduces returning guest Richie Pepio to Rob Reiner's iconic courtroom drama A Few Good Men. Together, they unpack what makes the movie work, from Aaron Sorkin's signature dialogue (and early “Sorkinisms”) to Reiner's direction and the film's stacked cast, including Tom Cruise, Jack Nicholson, and Demi Moore.Along the way, Shawn and Richie reflect on Sorkin's evolution as a writer, the film's origins as a stage play, and why A Few Good Men remains such a defining showcase for powerhouse acting and a reminder that Rob Reiner was truly one of the all-time great filmmakers.HOSTSShawn EastridgeRichie Pepio
Bienvenidos, cinéfilos hierberos, a un nuevo episodio de Cinefilia y Otras Hierbas, cine, televisión, música y videojuegos para escuchar, soy su anfitrión, José Enrique Guzmán y hoy retomamos nuestro ciclo sobre Aaron Sorkin con unapelícula que, para muchos, es un enigma. Verán, existe un error de catálogo muy común: clasificar a Moneyball: El Juego de la Fortuna como cine deportivo. Eso es como decir que La Red Social trata sobre programación o que El Ala Oeste va de arquitectura de interiores.El filme, estrenado en el 2011 es, en realidad, la mejor película que se ha hecho jamás no sobre un deporte, sino sobre la anatomía de un deporte.Es fascinante cómo llegó esto a manos de Sorkin. Imaginen la escena: un libro técnico sobre economía, lleno de porcentajes de llegada a base y jerga estadística que haría bostezar a un actuario de seguros. Varios directores intentaron descifrarlo; Stephen Soderberg hasta quiso filmarlo como un documental de National Geographic sobre tipos con gorra. Pero entonces entró Aaron, se ajustó los anteojos y dijo: 'Esto no es matemáticas, es una guerra ideológica'. Inyectó su característico ritmo de ametralladora en una oficina de Oakland y transformó una hoja de cálculo en una epopeya humana sobre la redención.Lo curioso es que esta cinta ocupa un lugar único en nuestro ciclo: es la única película donde Sorkin comparte el crédito de guion, en este caso con el brillante Steven Zaillian. Zaillian, el hombre detrás de La Lista de Schindler, ya había construido una estructura sólida y austera antes de que Sorkin llegarapara añadir esa efervescencia verbal. Lejos de ser un duelo de egos, fue una simbiosis extraña: Zaillian puso el esqueleto de acero y Sorkin el sistema nervioso de alta tensión. El resultado es un equilibrio perfecto entre la frialdad del dato y el calor de la réplica ingeniosa.La premisa —para los pocos que aún no han sido iluminados— es pura resistencia intelectual. Corre el año 2002. Billy Beane, gerente de los Atléticos de Oakland, se queda sin sus estrellas y, lo que es peor, sin un centavo. Ante el abismo, decidecometer la mayor herejía en la historia del béisbol: dejar de confiar en el 'instinto' de señores mayores que mastican tabaco y empezar a confiar en los datos de un graduado de Yale. Es David contra Goliat, pero con una computadora Dell y mucha cafeína.La cinta no solo fue un triunfo de la crítica; recaudó 110 millones de dólares y cosechó seis nominaciones al Oscar incluyendo Mejor Película, Mejor Actor para Pitt, Mejor Actor de Reparto para un sorprendente Jonah Hill y, por supuesto,Mejor Guion Adaptado para nuestra dupla estelar. También dejó su huella en los Globos de Oro y los BAFTA con múltiples menciones, consolidándose como la película de béisbol más nominada en décadas. Pero su verdadero legado no está en las vitrinas de trofeos, sino en el hecho de que hoy, desde el béisbol hasta la logística de Amazon, todos buscamos 'la falla en el sistema'.Al final, Sorkin y Zaillian nos regalaron un manifiesto sobre el valor de ser la persona más inteligente de la sala y tener el valor de que te odien por ello. Porque, como bien nos susurra la película con una media sonrisa: ¿Cómo no vas a ponerte romántico con el béisbol?Suban el volumen.

In this, the penultimate episode of Sports Night and the current season of Sorkin’ In It, we start with a “big honkin’ doofus.” That doesn’t relate to the plot, but we just love saying it. The gang’s at the bar meeting strangers and pondering the future — of the network, of the show, of their lives. These are desperate times — and Natalie’s not wearing socks, so who knows what will happen next! Whatever the future, Brian and Lex will be Sorkin’ In It. Lex Friedman and Brian Warren.

Season 2 of Sports Night finds Aaron Sorkin's cult newsroom dramedy hitting its creative stride. Airing in 1999–2000 on ABC, the sophomore season deepens the tension between idealism and network interference as Casey McCall (Peter Krause) and Dan Rydell (Josh Charles) fight to preserve the integrity of their late-night highlight show. Felicity Huffman's Dana Whitaker continues to anchor the chaos as executive producer, balancing corporate pressure from the network's new ownership with loyalty to her staff.Behind the scenes, Sorkin pushed harder into serialized storytelling, moving away from the early laugh-track experiment and leaning into walk-and-talk dialogue, romantic entanglements, and ethical dilemmas about ratings, loyalty, and creative control. The season sharpens its critique of media consolidation while giving emotional weight to character arcs—especially Dana's authority, Natalie's growth, and Jeremy's insecurity. Smart, fast, and surprisingly heartfelt, Season 2 cements Sports Night as the blueprint for Sorkin's later triumphs.Disclaimer: The following may contain offensive language, adult humor, and/or content that some viewers may find offensive – The views and opinions expressed by any one speaker does not explicitly or necessarily reflect or represent those of Mark Radulich or W2M Network.Mark Radulich and his wacky podcast on all the things:https://linktr.ee/markkind76alsohttps://www.teepublic.com/user/radulich-in-broadcasting-networkFB Messenger: Mark Radulich LCSWTiktok: @markradulichtwitter: @MarkRadulichInstagram: markkind76RIBN Album Playlist: https://suno.com/playlist/91d704c9-d1ea-45a0-9ffe-5069497bad59
In this conversation, Andrew Ross Sorkin discusses his new book '1929: Inside the Greatest Crash of Wall Street History and How It Shattered a Nation', exploring the parallels between the events of 1929 and today's economic landscape. He delves into the process of writing the book, the historical patterns of market manipulation, and the lessons learned from government responses to financial crises. Sorkin also reflects on the current state of the market, the role of optimism in investing, and the accountability of CEOs in today's political climate. Takeaways: People look to history to understand the present. The story of 1929 has parallels to today's economic issues. Writing a book requires extensive research and dedication. Market manipulation in 1929 was shocking and legal at the time. Modern equivalents of market manipulation exist in crypto. Government failures in 1929 led to the Great Depression. Lessons from 2008 show the importance of government intervention. CEOs are often reluctant to speak out against political issues. Optimism has historically been more profitable than skepticism. Investing in the S&P index is a sound long-term strategy. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
Dan’s working to patch things up with everyone while he and Jeremy host a Seder for the team. Meanwhile, Casey’s figuring out his top favorite movies. Lex and Brian discover some overlap in their top movies too, but we’re best buds, so no need to patch anything up. Right Lex? … Lex? Lex Friedman and Brian Warren.
An adult film star visits the office… and she’s Jeremy’s girlfriend, who is decidedly not a choreo-animator. Tensions are running high between Dan and Casey, and they even bleed into the TV broadcast, which is… not good. (Lex and Brian would never let that happen in this show.) And you know what IS good?

“You can't handle the truth.” Join Ian & Liam for our 313th episode as we step into the pressurised courtroom, moral brinkmanship, and razor-sharp dialogue of Rob Reiner's A Few Good Men (1992). Button up the dress whites, take your seats, and prepare for a film obsessed with duty, power, and the stories institutions tell themselves to survive. This week we discuss: Aaron Sorkin's dialogue as a weapon — rhythm, repetition, and confrontation. Is this peak Sorkin, or the moment his style becomes unmistakably dominant? Tom Cruise as Lt. Kaffee — charming, evasive, underestimated. Is this Cruise's most interesting performance precisely because he starts behind the power curve? Jack Nicholson's Colonel Jessup — operatic, terrifying, magnetic. Does the film become his the moment he enters it? The courtroom structure — how the film drip-feeds information, builds pressure, and engineers one of the most famous climaxes in cinema history. The ethics at the heart of the story — where does responsibility lie: with the men who carried out orders, or the system that created them? Ian talks about criticisms of the ending and if they're reading the film correctly We explores how masculinity functions in the film — honour, obedience, pride, and camaraderie The supporting cast — Demi Moore's steely professionalism, Kevin Bacon's moral slipperiness, and who almost got Kevin Pollak's role That scene — inevitability versus surprise. Does the famous monologue work because it's shocking, or because it feels unavoidable? The ending — justice served, or merely order restored? What actually changes once the truth is out?

Andrew Ross Sorkin joins The Rundown to break down the lessons of his new book 1929, and what the most devastating market crash over the last century tells us about the current AI economy. We talk power shifts between Wall Street, Washington, and billionaires — from the 1920s to today — and why there is no amount of 'F You Money' that can over-power President Trump's influence. Sorkin explains why Fed independence matters, how political pressure warped decisions in 1929, and what today's bond market may be quietly signaling. Plus, a sharp debate on speculation, prediction markets, AI hype, and why the Dow remains relevant.
The team’s covering the NFL draft which might take a bit longer due to some cloudy skies. Jeremy says the line “It cannot, it must not rain at Indian Wells” (anybody want to guess whether it starts raining?) Meanwhile, Jeremy is a bit nervous because he invited his new girlfriend to visit the studio. And Dana has an inexplicable bandage on her face? Lex and Brian think some of this makes sense, and some … less so. Either way, all this talk of rain tells me we’ll definitely be Sorkin’ In It! Lex Friedman and Brian Warren.

Dan isn’t one of the 100 Most Influential People in Sports, but Casey is. You can bet that goes over like a fart in church. Speaking of church - Dana visits one to get out of the rain… and likes it (the church, not the rain… or the fart). The rain also helps Jeremy continue his flirtation with Jenny. There’s so much Sorkin In It to do. We got you. Lex Friedman and Brian Warren.

This week's a big one: the squad kicks it off with Starlink on planes, Zoox vs. Waymo, and YouTube's skinny bundle before taking the big swing — data centers in space as the emerging SpaceX-IPO narrative. Sam and Dave break down the real entrepreneurship skill: tell the huge story, earn the trust multiple, and consistently deliver “20 cents on the dollar” to keep the flywheel of cash spinning (re: Elon Musk and Sam Altman but thread lightly, you don't want to end up like Elizabeth Holmes or Sam Bankman-Fried). Jess celebrates a win with The Information after getting CNBC to correct their reporting. Then they touch on how the backlash against AI is growing as the 101 billboards fill up with more AI company ads. From Sorkin's 1929 zeitgeist to smuggling Nvidia chips into China to “IPO everything and pray the American economy survives,” it's never a dull episode with Brit, Dave, Jess, and Sam.

New York Times columnist Andrew Ross Sorkin, a student of past financial calamities, talks about the likelihood the U.S. economy could be headed toward another crisis. He says there are concerns about the impact of AI, crypto currencies and shadowy investment firms operating outside the regulated banking system. How the nation fares, he says, depends much on the judgement, and perhaps financial interests of Donald Trump. “The entire business world now runs through one address – 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue – and to some degree through the prism of the whim of one individual,” Sorkin says. His new book, 1929, is about the financial panic that led to the Great Depression.Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

Andrew Ross Sorkin has spent his career following the money to understand everything — from Wall Street to Silicon Valley, from media to AI. A journalist who never set out to be one, Sorkin built DealBook into the Super Bowl of business journalism, turning curiosity into empire-building. In Boardroom's October Cover Story, he shares how an overheard word such as “internet” landed him at The New York Times, how he approaches interviews like a tennis rally rather than a serve, and why Oprah remains his white whale. Through stories of Too Big to Fail, the 1929 crash, and the coming AI reckoning, Sorkin unpacks how narrative drives markets, crashes, and comebacks alike. From Elon Musk's many personas to the billion-dollar game of sports, streaming, and live entertainment, this is Andrew Ross Sorkin: journalist, storyteller, dealmaker — chasing what feels impossible, one conversation at a time.

When President Donald Trump began his tariff rollout, the business world predicted that his unprecedented attempt to reshape the economy would lead to a major recession, if Trump went through with it all. But the markets stabilized and, in recent months, have continued to surge. That has some people worried about an even bigger threat: that overinvestment in artificial intelligence is creating a bubble. Andrew Ross Sorkin, one of today's preëminent financial journalists, is well versed in what's happening; his début book, “Too Big to Fail,” was an account of the 2008 financial crash, and this year he released “1929: Inside the Greatest Crash in Wall Street History—and How It Shattered a Nation.” He tells David Remnick that the concern lies in the massive borrowing to build the infrastructure for a future A.I. economy, without the sufficient revenue, currently, to pay off the loans. “If I learned anything from covering 1929, [and] covering 2008, it is leverage,” Sorkin says, “people borrowing to make all of this happen. And right now we are beginning to see a remarkable period of borrowing to make the economics of A.I. work.” Sorkin is the co-anchor of “Squawk Box” on CNBC, and he also founded the New York Times' business section, DealBook.

In 1929, unchecked speculation and economic hype helped fuel the worst financial crash in modern history. Nearly a century later, New York Times journalist and CNBC anchor Andrew Ross Sorkin sees troubling parallels. On the GZERO World podcast, he joins Ian Bremmer to talk about his new book, "1929: Inside the Greatest Crash in Wall Street History—and How It Shattered a Nation," and whether today's economy is headed for another cliff.Sorkin warns that behind today's AI boom and market exuberance lies an undercurrent of fragility—historic debt levels, shaky private credit markets, and investors chasing returns with little oversight. While the technology behind AI is real, much of the money flooding in feels familiar to those who've studied speculative bubbles before. “We're not going to have another 1929,” Sorkin says, “but I think it's very possible. Actually, I would argue it's almost impossible for us not to have another 1999.” He sees eerie parallels between the past and the present: massive speculative investments, surging inequality, and a public increasingly disconnected from financial realities.But one thing stands out today: silence. Sorkin warns that many CEOs and financial leaders, despite recognizing the risks, are unwilling to speak out publicly. “If we ever get to a moment where we need to make very difficult decisions,” he says, “are there going to be leaders willing to stand up and explain what needs to happen?”Host: Ian BremmerGuest: Andrew Ross Sorkin Subscribe to the GZERO World with Ian Bremmer Podcast on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or your preferred podcast platform, to receive new episodes as soon as they're published.

Why have CEOs been so eager to bend the knee? How are tariffs actually affecting the economy? Is the next major financial crisis already underway? New York Times financial columnist Andrew Ross Sorkin stops by the studio to talk to Lovett about our weird economy under Trump 2.0. They discuss big business's refusal to stand up to Trump, the prospect of a crypto-crash big enough to tank the U.S. economy, and why this moment is eerily similar to the stock market crash that kicked off the Great Depression, which Sorkin writes about in his new book 1929: Inside the Greatest Crash in Wall Street History and How It Shattered a Nation.For a closed-captioned version of this episode, click here.

We all know the date. But what really happened in October 1929? New York Times financial columnist and DealBook founder Andrew Ross Sorkin joins Katie to discuss his new book, 1929, which demystifies one of the most famous (and infamous) chapters in American History. Through extensive research into letters and diaries of the era’s biggest players, Sorkin reconstructs the chaos and conviction of a world on the brink. How the bankers, politicians, and investors thought they were saving the system even as they helped its unraveling. It’s a conversation about how good intentions can spiral into catastrophe—and why the real lesson of 1929 is not to dance while the music plays, but to remember that, at some point, it always stops.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
