V Listen—The Dropout

Sometimes we just want to sit back and enjoy a podcast rather than read a book. And this week we want to tell you about one of our all time favourite listens “The Dropout”. This gripping six parter tells the story of Elizabeth Holmes and her blood testing company Theranos. It’s the most unbelievable story of a college dropout who fooled Silicon Valley, became the youngest female self-made billionaire in the world, and now faces fraud charges and a 20 year jail term.

How could she have duped so many people? It’s jaw dropping, episode turning stuff. We defy you not to be fascinated.
