Have you been wondering who all really was “short on ethics” when it comes to the 2007-2008 financial crisis?

Well, join Kelly and I as we dissect all the “players” in the crisis – from the homeowners, the underwriters, the loan officers, the wall-street bankers, the rating agencies, to the regulators… we will discuss all the roles portrayed in both book (2010) and movie (2015) form.

The Big Short is a 2015 American biographical comedy-drama film directed by Adam McKay. Written by McKay and Charles Randolph, it is based on the 2010 book The Big Short: Inside the Doomsday Machine by Michael Lewis showing how the financial crisis of 2007–2008 was triggered by the United States housing bubble. The film stars Christian Bale, Steve Carell, Ryan Gosling and Brad Pitt.
