Bad Bets
Bad Bets unravels big-business dramas that have had a big impact on our world. In Season 2, we delve into the story of Nikola founder Trevor Milton, who promised a future of zero-emission trucks but was taken down by a ragtag bunch of whistleblowers and short sellers. Season 2 is hosted by Ben Foldy.

As someone who lost money on Nikola, thank you

WSJ reporting helped bring down a fraudster, and while I lost money on Nikola, it could have been worse. So glad I get to hear a podcast series on the background story now.

When are more seasons/episodes coming out? Can you all let listeners know if you’re no longer keeping the podcast going? This is probably the WSJ’s best podcast, so it’d be great if it kept going.
Great

After all these years I couldn’t recall what the Enron scandal was all about. Thanks for the nice review. As for the Trevor Milton tale, what a guy! I hope there will be more outrageous tales of businesses gone bad.
great show
