Gaming Wall St - Season 1 (2022)

In 2021, Reddit users took a stand against Wall Street by purchasing stock in beloved but failing companies such as GameStop and AMC. But what began as a series of memes soon snowballed into an unprecedented fight against the ruling class of the American financial system. This “short squeeze” provided windfalls for some and devastating losses for others, but ultimately revealed an ugly Wall Street secret: powerful firms have rigged the system against everyday investors. Narrated by Kieran Culkin and featuring interviews with former insiders and whistleblowers working to expose decades of corruption and rampant conflicts of interest, Gaming Wall Street gives an inside look at the viral phenomenon that turned out to be only the tip of the iceberg.
