CoinDesk Podcast Network - CONSENSUS CONVERSATIONS: FTX – What Happened?

A Consensus 2023 panel with Brett Harrison and Anthony Scaramucci.

The fast and hard fall of Sam Bankman-Fried's empire sent shockwaves through the global crypto markets and raised troubling questions about industry governance practices. A hedge fund manager whose firm invested in SBF's exchange (and vice versa) and the former president of FTX's U.S. arm candidly reflect on how it all went wrong, what they'd do differently, and how they are reengaging and working to build a better industry.

Tracy Wang, deputy managing editor of CoinDesk, moderates alongside panelists:

  • Brett Harrison, founder and CEO of Architect
  • Anthony Scaramucci, founder and managing partner of SkyBridge Capital

This episode is executive produced by Jared Schwartz and edited by Ryan Huntington, with additional production assistance from Eleanor Pahl. Cover image by Kevin Ross and the theme song is "Get Down" by Elision.

Ologies with Alie Ward - Black American Magirology (FOOD, RACE & CULTURE) with Psyche Williams-Forson

What’s the difference between Southern cooking and “soul food?” Is there a correct type of mac and cheese? And whose business is it what you eat? (Hint: no one’s). Culinary historian, scholar of African American life and culture critic Dr. Psyche Williams-Forson is a professor at University of Maryland College Park and department chair in the Department of American Studies. She also authored the books “Eating While Black: Food Shaming and Race in America” and “Building Houses out of Chicken Legs: Black Women, Food, and Power.” We chat about everything from oral traditions to “soul food” in popular culture, gendered roles in cooking, hyperlocal produce, systemic oppression and why someone would make chicken without seasoning it. On national television.

Code Story: Insights from Startup Tech Leaders - S8 Bonus: Matt Swalley & Hikari Senju, Omneky

Hikari Senju grew up in Westchester, NY, and was exposed to tech early on, as his family worked at IBM. His Dad is also a painter, so he has been driven through the intersection of art and tech. He studied Computer Science at Harvard, and was cross registered at MIT. It was at MIT that his passions united, and he knew that his life goals would be aligned between art and technology. He started his first couple of businesses while still in college,

Matt Swalley graduated from Indiana University business school, and was influenced by his Dad and Mom, who were both business people. Post school, he joined a leadership development program at AT&T, and led sales teams in several different locations. Post getting his MBA, he got deep into data to analyze the big trends in the business world.

In one of his earliest ventures, Hikari was leading marketing efforts across multiple digital channels. He saw an opportunity to use generative AI and omni-channel marketing to optimize how content is generated, and how well it performs. At the same time, Matt was researching great folks building companies around data - and found Hikari.

This is the creation story of Omneky.
