Closing Thoughts: A Rare Black-and-White Story
At 56:17 · chapter starts 56:15
Josh brings the episode to a close with a moment of unusual editorial clarity: unlike most Stuff You Should Know episodes, there is no counterargument worth presenting here. Enron's fraud was not ambiguous, not partially defensible, and not the result of well-intentioned mistakes. It was, Josh says, 'just as wrong as it appears.' Chuck jokes that someone out there will inevitably leave an Apple review defending Enron, drawing a comparison to listeners who've defended Hitler and Satan. Josh wraps up with a recommendation to watch 'The Smartest Guys in the Room' for more depth before transitioning to listener mail.
