0:00:01.040 --> 0:00:09.000
<v Speaker 1>Tuesday, San Francisco's exactly see On April fourth, twenty twenty three,

0:00:09.320 --> 0:00:12.560
<v Speaker 1>around two in the morning, a man was found stabbed

0:00:12.640 --> 0:00:16.320
<v Speaker 1>multiple times on a sidewalk in downtown San Francisco.

0:00:16.880 --> 0:00:21.119
<v Speaker 2>Great, is it plase you from Bloomberg Podcasts? This is

0:00:21.200 --> 0:00:25.880
<v Speaker 2>Foundering the killing of Bob Lee. I'm your host, Sean Wen.

0:00:27.240 --> 0:00:30.920
<v Speaker 2>The murder was at least initially something of a mystery,

0:00:31.000 --> 0:00:33.560
<v Speaker 2>and in the breaking news a tech executive is dead.

0:00:33.680 --> 0:00:35.600
<v Speaker 2>He was stabbed in San Francis.

0:00:35.640 --> 0:00:38.560
<v Speaker 3>Victim as Bob Lee, the founder of cash app.

0:00:38.600 --> 0:00:40.360
<v Speaker 2>I didn't really know how to express to my child,

0:00:40.360 --> 0:00:41.920
<v Speaker 2>like what words that you're supposed to use?

0:00:42.080 --> 0:00:45.559
<v Speaker 4>I couldn't bear to listen to the nine to one one.

0:00:45.200 --> 0:00:48.600
<v Speaker 2>Recording tributes from the tech world pouring in. Elon Musk

0:00:48.720 --> 0:00:52.320
<v Speaker 2>even weighing in. But what happens next turned the story

0:00:52.360 --> 0:00:55.920
<v Speaker 2>from a personal tragedy into a political firestorm.

0:00:56.120 --> 0:00:58.480
<v Speaker 5>I would bet dollars to dimes that the story is

0:00:58.560 --> 0:01:00.480
<v Speaker 5>very similar to a case we had in la recently

0:01:00.520 --> 0:01:03.200
<v Speaker 5>where a young woman was basically stabbed for no reason

0:01:03.240 --> 0:01:04.679
<v Speaker 5>by a psychotic, homeless person.

0:01:05.280 --> 0:01:10.240
<v Speaker 2>So what actually happened this season on Foundering will tell

0:01:10.280 --> 0:01:13.800
<v Speaker 2>you the story of the tech industry's most notorious murder.

0:01:14.000 --> 0:01:16.199
<v Speaker 3>All of a sudden, his name became a household word

0:01:16.400 --> 0:01:19.520
<v Speaker 3>for the worst of reasons, and it just pissed me off.

0:01:19.760 --> 0:01:21.920
<v Speaker 2>Oh that's the guy who cut my friends.

0:01:22.000 --> 0:01:24.880
<v Speaker 4>If it's true, definitely both of these men are on

0:01:24.959 --> 0:01:27.679
<v Speaker 4>drugs and it probably has something to do with Kauzar.

0:01:28.400 --> 0:01:31.120
<v Speaker 2>What did this death mean to a city in crisis,

0:01:31.440 --> 0:01:34.480
<v Speaker 2>to an industry that was just beginning to step into

0:01:34.480 --> 0:01:38.320
<v Speaker 2>its political power. Listen and find out wherever you get
