Summary

Rebecca has a special message about a new podcast three-years-in the making. It's called "The Dropout" and you can subscribe here: https://apple.co/2FAlmjZ Launching January 23, 2018, "The Dropout" tells the story of the rise and fall of former Silicon Valley star Elizabeth Holmes, the youngest self-made female billionaire. She dropped out of Stanford to launch her company Theranos -- claiming her technology could detect hundreds of diseases from a drop or two of blood. If it worked, she would have changed healthcare forever. But today, Elizabeth Holmes is under criminal indictment. She pleaded not guilty, but is facing up to 20 years in prison on wire fraud charges. So how did it all come crashing down? In exclusive interviews with former employees, investors and patients, and in never-before-aired depositions from the people at the center of this story -- including Elizabeth herself -- you’ll hear an unbelievable story of fame and ambition gone terribly wrong.
