Closing arguments in the Sam Baeckman trial and interest in the jury

When SBF decided to take the stand, reporters flocked to the courthouse to try and get a spot in the room itself to watch the former FTX CEO recount his version of events. Turns out Sam didn't remember much of what happened at FTX.

On “Carpe Consensus,” hosts Ben Schiller and Danny Nelson center the episode on, arguably, the crypto news event of the year: the trial of Sam Bankman-Fried.

• [0:53] Inside the Desk: For weeks, Danny's been predicting that SBF would choose to take the stand – either for his ego, or as a last-resort attempt to sway the jury. Danny recaps SBF's direct and cross examination.
• [12:10] Danny chats with David Z. Morris outside the courthouse.

“Carpe Consensus” is executive produced by Jared Schwartz and produced and edited by Eleanor Pahl.
