Culture

Into It With Sam Sanders

So much pop culture. So many movies, TV shows, music, and memes. In Vulture's flagship podcast Into It, host Sam Sanders will help you obsess … better. We break down the pop culture we can’t stop thinking about, with friends from Vulture and the occasional celebrity. From the tiny, dumb scene on loop in our brains to the big, deep questions we have about what it all means … we’ll get into all of it — amazing, terrible, or just insanely memorable.

True Crime & Documentary

Cover Story

What can a billionaire get away with these days? A secret bat cave? A harem of women? An international spy operation? Stealing the soul of a small town in Montana? A Silicon Valley venture capitalist was accused of running a massive sex-trafficking operation by his best bro friend. And we unravel the truth about both of them — their business, their break-up, their lies, and their embarrassing text messages. The story of a billionaire with a hero complex, the ex-spy who turned his life inside out. And us, the reporters, who got caught up in their macho drama. Cover Story is an investigative podcast series featuring original reporting from New York Magazine.
