What was said

"It's a really fascinating piece of tape because at the beginning the vibe is not unlike your vibe right now. It's like it's like guys I I literally described it as it was an interrogation that looked more like a podcast."

Anand Giridharadas says his planned YouTube series will examine an NYPD interrogation recording of Daniel Penny. He describes the opening as unusually congenial before, he says, Penny later used language prosecutors argued was dehumanising about Jordan Neely.
