Robbie Martin is joined by Max aka Compostghoul, a researcher and Media Roots collaborator who has been working with Robbie to turn previous Media Roots anthrax investigative podcasts into long form written pieces.  They start by giving their opinions about what was good and bad about the new Netflix documentary: Anthrax, In the Shadow of 9/11. Halfway through the podcast Robbie and Max emphasize how the recently unearthed abandoned St Petersburg hoax letters thread alone undermines the entire FBI case about Bruce Ivins, possibly the strongest evidence point at the current moment that proves that the anthrax attacks must have been the work of at least 2 individuals, but probably more. In the last third Robbie throws out darker possibilities for suspects, including the liklihood that whoever conducted the 2001 anthrax attacks had foreknowledge of the 9/11 attacks and was planning the anthrax attack before 9/11 actually occured. 

Robbie mentions several crucial previous Media Roots works on the 2001 anthrax attacks throughout the podcast, please see all the links below:

The 2001 Anthrax Attacks 21 Years Later & How the Hoax Letters Prove a Conspiracy

We are joined by reporter Avi Asher-Schapiro who, along with his colleague Fabio Teixeira, has published an investigation into the crypto carbon credits markets. This collision between green finance and crypto economics reveals many of the worst tendencies of both sectors as financiers take advantage of highly profitable opportunities for price arbitrage. Such as bundling low quality “zombie credits” with high quality carbon credits, labeling these subprime assets as premium, and selling the tokens at the highest price. All in the name of making the markets more efficient at saving the planet, of course.

203. Saving the Planet with Green Crypto Arbitrage (ft. Avi Asher-Schapiro)

We dig into the details of FTX’s collapse. FTX is not an isolated event. FTX is not a bad apple.  FTX is not uniquely mismanaged. FTX is not a cautionary tale. FTX is not a stunning surprise. FTX is a systemic problem, a vehicle for structural levels of fraud, another in a long line of liquidity crunches for crypto, a litmus test for credible due diligence, a fork in the road for the crypto economy, institutional investors, and government regulators.
