#77, Part 2: The Rise & Fall of Theranos & Elizabeth Holmes

Thursday Sep 30, 2021

This is the second part of a two-part episode. This is an active court case.

Theranos was supposed to revolutionize and democratize healthcare. Elizabeth Holmes was supposed to be the next Steve Jobs. Investors were supposed to rake in millions of dollars. However, things don’t always work out the way they should, especially when that genius inventor is a fraud and that revolutionary company is a scam. Join us this week as we lay the groundwork for understanding Theranos, its young founder Elizabeth Holmes, and her flashy ex-business partner/ex-COO/ex-president/ex-boyfriend Sunny Balwani. This comes at a very relevant time--Elizabeth’s trial began on August 31, 2021. She could face up to 20 years in prison for the fraud.
