Show Notes
On this episode of Obsessed The Podcast, host Matt Wilstein breaks down the addictive chaos of Industry, the buzzy HBO and BBC drama about ambition, power, and toxic workplace culture in high finance. He’s joined first by Emma Fraser to unpack the season’s biggest twists and what makes the series such a nerve-shredding watch. Then, Wilstein sits down with star Ken Leung, who opens up about playing the volatile Eric Tao, the psychology behind his performance, and how the show captures the brutal intensity of the trading floor. Leung also shares the story of how he nearly tanked the audition for his breakout performance on The Sopranos and explains why he most certainly will not be reprising his role in the Trump-demanded Rush Hour 4.
