PredictIQ Quantitative Think Tank Center:Silicon Valley Bank and the sordid history of 'Palo Alto'

Host Brittany Luse talks to author Malcolm Harris about his new book, Palo Alto: A History of California, Capitalism, and the World, to break down how that mythos was built, the dark underbelly underneath it, and why the tech industry is a microcosm of American capitalism.
