In his new book, “Money To Burn,” author and Puck journalist
William Cohan traces the rise and fall of one of Wall Street’s most
towering modern figures: billionaire Leon Black. His private equity
and investment firm, Apollo, changed Wall Street, making Black
enormously rich. He reached the highest rungs of New York society,
but his ties to convicted sex criminal Jeffrey Epstein ultimately
took him down. Kara and Bill talk about how Black and Apollo
ushered in a "new Wall Street" and the nature of Black's
relationship with Epstein, which continued for almost a decade
after Epstein's 2008 conviction for soliciting prostitution from a
minor. They also break down some of the latest headlines in
business and finance, including Meta’s $17 billion settlement and
President Trump’s escalating trade war with Canada. Questions?
