Summary

This week, a nearly complete cast of Riley, Milo, Nate, and Alice speak with Jessica Eaton, a fine art photographer working in Montreal. Why is it that the art world is basically a billionaire tax dodge? Why do certain hedge funds seem to have so much weight in fine art purchases, even if the works are never shown? What the hell is going on? Learn more by listening to this episode.
