Description:

A year and a half after the abrupt collapse of Bonza, its erstwhile financier, Miami-based investment firm 777 Partners, is under the microscope again – and for all the wrong reasons.

Its co-founder and former CFO have both been charged by the FBI over allegations of a jaw-dropping US$500 million fraud scheme, with accusations levelled of a complex web of lies and financial chicanery that left lenders and investors holding the bag.

Jake and David dig into the charges and reflect again on how much 777 Partners’ alleged dodgy dealings may have brought Bonza down.

Plus, which carrier was Australia’s most on-time airline in 2024–25 – and what do you do with a radioactive cat?
