You don't recall anything you said more than 5 minutes ago? Even from prepared statements in court, or in rehearsed public speaking situations, or in one-off conversations with celebrity podcast hosts? I would suggest you see a doctor because that's not normal at all.

I mean, there's plenty of evidence to show that we don't accurately remember what we said in all those situations. At best, we think we do.

I'd suggest they do NOT see a doctor because it would be an evolutionary advantage in court, as well as lots of other places.
It's also just all-around generally good practice to live in the present, not the past.

Maybe not when you're testifying under oath.

Is it better to say "I don't remember that confession" or "I confessed" under oath?

SBF did hundreds of celebrity podcast interviews. It is in no way surprising to not remember quotes from them. That doesn't mean it's true, but it easily could be.
