On this week’s Free State, Michael Lewis, the author behind Hollywood blockbusters Moneyball, The Big Short and The Blind Side, joins Dion and Joe. 

Michael's new book Going Infinite charts the rise and fall of Sam Bankman-Fried who within two years of discovering crypto was worth $22 billion. 

In the first part of a two-part interview, Michael talks to Joe and Dion about why sport in America has become as violent as it was for gladiators in the Roman Empire and why he would give up sex before exercise. After two hours in Joe's company, Michael wants to write his next book about him. But Michael wonders who would play Joe Brolly in the movie now that Tom Cruise is too old?

Free State with Joe Brolly and Dion Fanning is a Gold Hat Production in association with SwanMcG.
