I still don't get what is it about SBF that seduced so many people, including these writers. If he shows up with that messy hair the way he dresses looking like he just rolled out of bed, a normal person wouldn't hire him for a job. Yet, because he's "tech", and better yet, "crypto" all of a sudden that look is the sign of a genius. Someone you would give billions of dollars to manage. And someone whose sloppy look becomes something to analyze and dissect like a cult of personality. It's just shows and confirms again the people in all the institutions who supposed to know what they're doing, don't have a clue. They're morons.

And at the end of they day, it wasn't crypto that was his fraud. He ran a classic pyramid scheme, a tale as old as time. People just were willing to play as long as they were making bucks and thinking they'd get out richer before the other suckers lose theirs.

In my humble opinion reality shows are ridiculous PARTICULARLY the bachelor/bachelorette and The Real Housewives of wherever. I can't stand them.

I listened to half of the Carville interview before deciding it was a waste of time. The man has become a caricature of himself. Moreover, he truly believes, and peddles to all who will listen, the culturally and politically corrosive canard that Donald Trump poses such a grave threat to our republic that he must be stopped at any cost. This way of thinking is why Trump is being sued by leftist prosecutors everywhere, and why our national election integrity is in peril.

I have a life and no desire to see old folks sucking down Viagra and looking for attention. The naked dating isn’t any way appealing either. Seems like beginners pornography.

Could the writers and producers please go back on strike?

Crypto King sleaze ball, here’s betting he gets prison at one of the Feds easygoing holding areas. He deserves time with Bubba but very high crime doesn’t rate the hard time. Yet have a nickel bag and 10-12 might be your gift.

Two more reasons why I don't watch television, but if you find this all compelling, please be my guest.

Disappointing to see there were no trans women among the “Golden Bachelor” contestants. Is Gerry transphobic?

James Carville a "legendary Democratic strategist" and "political icon"? Spare us, Bari...

When I first heard about bitcoins/crypto currency in the 1980s, I asked my broker what he knew about it? He said he'd call ne back. An hour later, he returned my call with an answer that basically made no sense; it's a form of currency that exists only in the imaginary space of the internet; you can't hold it, it's stored in internet accounts called blockchains, and its value is not backed by any government and varies by the minute. That was enough for me to lose any interest in it. I may not be the smartest investor in the world, but this looked like an obvious scam.

But, but, they are socially responsible people who hate white privileged people and demand social justice! So they must be okay and did nothing wrong when a weird child starts forking over millions. Must be honest because we are such good people!

Typical scummy grifters who claim to be woke!

Overall, a very weak week on TFP.

Please stop. No normal person would watch that crap. To have mature supposedly intelligent women throwing themselves like schoolgirls at a man who resembles a scarecrow with the intelligence of a turnip makes me ill. He sounds like he uses Forrest Gump as an intellectual model . It was torture sitting through the coming attractions, and i can't see myself or anybody who can sit up without aid enjoying this program.

As far as seeing somebody naked before knowing them is a bit like watching porn. Can't see it! Literally.

SBF is a crook as are his parents. In my opinion. I don't really think he has the intelligence to run an operation like that. Mommy and Daddy NIMBY progressives were behind it.
