“The stock market is rigged… for the benefit [of] a handful of insiders.” That’s according to the writer and financial journalist Michael Lewis. The author of “Moneyball” joins us to discuss his new book “Flash Boys,” about high-frequency trading on computers and how a millisecond can make or break an investment.

Guests:

Michael Lewis, author of "Flash Boys: A Wall Street Revolt," "The Blind Side," "Moneyball," "Liar's Poker," and "Home Game: An Accidental Guide to Fatherhood"
