What happens when your son builds one of the largest crypto empires in history—and then it all comes crashing down?

On this episode of Nightmare Success In and Out, Brent Cassity sits down with Joe Bankman, Stanford law professor and father of Sam Bankman-Fried, the convicted founder of FTX. In a candid and emotional conversation, Joe shares what it was like to watch the meteoric rise of FTX, the devastating collapse, and the personal toll it has taken on his family.

This is not just a story about crypto or courtroom drama—it’s about fatherhood, resilience, and what it means to survive when your worst nightmare becomes your reality. Joe opens up about the weight of public scrutiny, the heartbreak of watching his son fall, and how he and his family are finding a path forward in the shadow of a global scandal.

If you’ve ever wondered how families endure when the spotlight turns harsh, this episode is one you won’t forget.
