Longest title *evar*.
For those who haven't listened to it, take an hour to do so. This American Life did a *brilliant* piece on understanding what all this bailout stuff is about, and how it happened. Chances are, it's not quite what you think (no, it's not space aliens either).
This will open up in iTunes.
