Yeet the Rich
If a billionaire donates money to a good cause, does that make them a good person? Hosts Emily Walsh and Daniel Moss are two married millennials who learned about financial crises by living through them, and now they’re diving into the wild world of the uber rich. They discuss financial crimes, the breakdown of the American dream, and why funding a museum doesn’t necessarily make you a good person. They get into the old timey rich, like the Rockafeller family, and current events, like why you might not want to shop at Walmart. Each week they’ll dive into a new wealthy person, give you the rundown on their lives, whatever “good things” they’ve done in the past, and why they might be a bummer.

This week we journey to Floreana Island, in the heart of the Galapagos Islands. Millionaires from all over had started visiting the Galapagos Islands after Charles Darwin did, for the exotic animals and uncharted territory and to bring back plenty of critters and carcasses. Foreign businessmen were also visiting with the intent of figuring out how to profit there, and how to buy the islands for their governments.
Then, three different groups: an odd couple, a family, and a pretend baroness with her two young lovers came to the island separately to all create their own version of utopia, but these 10 people wouldn't even share the island for a before several would meet tragic ends.
