I'm starting to get the hang of this interview thing...of course it's easier when the guy on the other side of the table grew up in the same town. Sadly he is so much younger than I, that we only knew a few of the same teachers--Mr. Sloan and Ms. McGinn!

Here's my chat with Andrew Ross Sorkin, New York Times journalist and author of the recently-released "Too Big To Fail". The book is a great insider look at the financial crisis and more importantly, paints a rich portrait of the players who nearly brought down the financial system.
