The Billionaires Boys Club & Joe Hunt

What a Creep
Billionaire Boys Club's Joe Hunt
Season 28, Episode 8

We’re talking about the Billionaire Boys Club. You might remember it from the 1987 miniseries of the same name, starring Judd Nelson and Ron Silver. You don’t know it from the 2018 movie “Billionaire Boys Club,” starring Ansel Elgort, Taron Egerton, and Kevin Spacey, because it made $618 million in 11 theaters during its opening weekend.

The Billionaires Boys Club was an investment club started by Joe Hunt. Well, he called it an investment club. It was really a Ponzi scheme that led to the murder of two people. What a creep.
