It was 2 years later before the FBI was able to find enough evidence to take action; I'm not sure it's a reasonable to expect a podcast platform to meet a higher bar than the FBI.Don't mean that to sound flippant, but this is a difficult issue to address and we don't know how often BiggerPockets has actually been successful in filtering potentially shady guests.
