With Amanda Seyfried playing Elizabeth Holmes and a bunch of other familiar faces. Hollywood loves a good rise and fall story. Starts March 3.

Thanks, very interesting documentary, it's up on NowTV. Had only really heard about Elizabeth Holmes when she was found guilty last month. How the company got so far without being shut down and proved a fraud is amazing, even investors without any medical knowledge would seek basic proof like results from a confirmed cancer patients blood v's someone without and confirm it's able to detect solely from the machine.

Looking forward to The Dropout.

This along with the WeWork story makes me assume that someone who starts a company and proclaims they will change the world are sociopaths.

The Podcast 'The dropout' is very good. Very well done, similar in quality to season 1 of Serial

I really enjoyed the podcast when I listened to it a few years ago. Though I see it advertised I don't seem to be able to find the Dropout on Disney+ at all, anyone else experiencing this issue?

I'm 2 episodes in at the moment and I'm enjoying it. Amanda Seyfried is great in it.
