Podcast appearances and mentions of Elizabeth Holmes

In this week's Coaching Hotline episode, I'm answering two questions that get to the core of how we manage our minds. The first explores how to handle phobias, like the fear of flying, and panic attacks by changing our relationship with anxiety itself. The second dives into a meta question about thought work: could managing our thoughts turn us into sociopaths? A listener draws parallels to Elizabeth Holmes and the Theranos scandal, wondering if there's a line between healthy thought management and dangerous self-deception. You'll discover why accepting anxiety instead of resisting it changes everything, and how true thought work differs from ego-driven deception.Submit your own question here and it might get answered on a future episode: unfuckyourbrain.com/coachinghotline Get full show notes, transcript, and more information here: schoolofnewfeministthought.com/437Follow along on Instagram: instagram.com/karaloewentheil/Mentioned in this episode:Learn How to Stop Caring What Other People ThinkGet this FREE workshop + guide by going to: https://the-school-of-new-feminist-thought.captivate.fm/hscGet the How to Stop Caring What Other People Think Workshop here!

Move over murder mysteries, corporate con artists are the new true crime obsession. In this episode, Katie and Marissa dive deep into the seductive world of Silicon Valley scandals and the psychology behind high-stakes deception. Marissa brings rare insider perspective, having worked closely with Elizabeth Holmes, the now-infamous CEO of Theranos whose empire was built on lies. Katie isn't new to real-life crime either...her past includes owning a business with the infamous 'Family Feud Killer' (google it) and the woman he murdered (they were double partners in college). Together, they unpack what makes us fascinated by fraud, how charisma becomes a weapon, and why tech's biggest dreamers sometimes turn into its darkest figures. Grab your headphones, pour a drink, and get ready to laugh, cringe, and question everything you thought you knew about ambition, belief, and bullshit.

Don and Tom kick off by joking about their “record-breaking” call drought before diving headlong into the week's biggest speculative loser: crypto. The duo dismantle the mythology around Bitcoin and its countless imitators, comparing the excitement of trading coins to sports betting and reminding listeners that portfolios are for investing, not gambling. They tie the current crypto crash to leverage, insider-like trades, and the same fraud patterns seen in history's great financial cons—from Jay Gould's gold-cornering to Elizabeth Holmes' blood-testing farce. Later, they field listener questions on asset location, liquidity management, emerging-market exposure, and the danger of leverage via MicroStrategy's Bitcoin bet. Through it all, they emphasize fiduciary discipline, skepticism toward hype, and the basic rule: excitement and good investing rarely mix. 0:04 Pretending last Saturday's show didn't happen; Tom's pun about “Pacific” questions. 1:41 Crypto crash carnage—Bitcoin off 16%, Ethereum down 25%, “Trump Coin” collapsing. 2:30 Comparing crypto's thrill-seeking crowd to sports betting mania. 3:55 Why your financial advisor should not be your gambling coach. 4:48 The leveraged, insider-ish side of crypto speculation. 5:06 The absurdity of 10,000+ coins that serve no purpose but gambling. 7:40 Calling crypto “speculative” and comparing it to a casino roller coaster. 8:10 Binance payout trouble—proof many players don't know how to run big-money businesses. 10:32 MicroStrategy's leveraged Bitcoin plunge and the perils of margin. 11:37 The illusion of “value” in digital tokens versus productive assets. 12:55 Historical echo: borrowed money, bubbles, and 1929-style leverage warnings. 15:25 Listener questions segment opens; lighthearted banter about philately and call volume. 17:02 “ChatGPT beats bad advisors” — asset location done right (bonds in IRA, stocks in Roth). 18:30 Why most “advisors” ignore tax planning in favor of commissions. 20:23 Jay Gould, robber barons, and the Wall Street Journal's bizarre defense of con artists. 22:12 From Nikola to Theranos—lying as business strategy and why “gray areas” hurt investors. 24:53 The moral cost of tolerating fraud disguised as innovation. 26:36 Why trust is the real foundation of capitalism, not creative deception. 27:00 How to protect yourself: fee-only fiduciary advice and due diligence. 27:36 Mariners hangover theory for low call volume; nostalgic TV banter (“Bewitched”). 29:06 Caller Tom (Seattle): $4 M portfolio, $1 M in money market—how much liquidity is too much? 30:34 The hidden risk of waiting too long to react when rates fall. 33:08 Building a CD ladder to lock yield without betting on one-day rates. 34:25 Quick take: Why they'd avoid owning Boeing stock individually. 36:18 Caller Justin (Florida): emerging-market allocation for high-risk investors. 37:29 Case for small-cap and value tilts, including emerging markets. 38:34 Should you exclude China? Why it's still essential in global portfolios. 39:29 Closing reminders—use the website for questions, and find fiduciary help at TalkingRealMoney.com. Learn more about your ad choices.

If you need to hire one person, hire a team of people, or transform your business through Talent or Technical Services, Insight Global's team of 30,000 people around the world has the hustle and grit to deliver. My Guest: Helen Lewis is a staff writer at The Atlantic and author of The Genius Myth: Great Ideas Don't Come from Lone Geniuses.  Notes: Shakespeare: Talent + Luck + Timing - William Shakespeare died in 1616 at age 52, celebrated but not yet immortal. His icon status required massive luck: friends published the First Folio (saving King Lear), then 50 years later, Charles II reopened England's theaters after Puritan closures and needed content. Companies turned to Shakespeare's IP, adapting his work (including changing tragedies to happy endings). Helen: "If anyone deserves to be called a genius, it's him. But he died as a successful man of his age. Scenius Over Genius - Brian Eno coined "scenius" - places that are unusually productive and creative. Shakespeare moved from Warwickshire to London for the theaters and playwrights. Helen: "You don't just have to be Leonardo, you also need Florence... Where do you find the coolest, most interesting bleeding edge of your field?" Modern example: Joe Rogan's Comedy Mothership in Austin created an alternative to LA/NYC for comedians like Shane Gillis and Tony Hinchcliffe. Ryan: "Put yourself in rooms where you feel like the dumbest person... force you to rise up, think differently, work harder." Tim Berners-Lee vs. Elon Musk - Tim Berners-Lee invented the World Wide Web. Has knighthood, lives an ordinary life, kids named Alice and Ben. Most people have never heard of him. Elon Musk has a lot of children, talks about his genes needing to live on, and lives a very public life. Helen: "We overrate the self-promoters, the narcissists. We demand oddness and specialness... We don't call modest people geniuses because they're too normal." Elizabeth Holmes (Theranos) and Sam Bankman-Fried (FTX) exploited this - looked like a genius (Steve Jobs cosplay, messy math prodigy) but stood on houses of cards. Trauma and the "I'll Show You" Engine - Matthew Parris wrote Fracture after noticing how many "great lives" had traumatic childhoods - loss of parents, being unloved, bullied. Helen: "I don't think that's necessarily genius in objective achievement. It's more like a hunger for recognition or fame... a kind of 'I'll show all of you' engine." Stephen Hawking on IQ - Stephen Hawking: "I have no idea. People who boast about their IQ are losers." The Flynn Effect shows average IQ rose over the 20th century through better nutrition, schooling, and living conditions. Higher IQ correlates with better outcomes. But at the top end, every IQ point ≠ is one success point. Christopher Langan (the highest IQ guy) thinks he has a theory to overturn Einstein, and that Bush did 9/11 to cover it up. No history of achievement. Helen: "Smart people don't always prosper. You need the gears that connect the engine to the wheels on the road." Conspiracy Theories: Narcissism as Driver - Narcissism is the most correlated personality trait with conspiracy thinking. Helen: "The sheeple, the NPCs think this, but I alone have seen the truth. It positions you as the protagonist of reality." The Internet is a "confirmation bias engine." But conspiracies are sometimes true (Epstein's corrupt plea deal), which is why conspiracy thinking persists. Researcher Karen Stenner's solution: Get back to depoliticized conspiracies like Bigfoot, crop circles, Area 51 - harmless things that got people outside instead of "shoot up a pizza restaurant." The Beatles: Finiteness Creates Legend - Psychologist Han Isaac said geniuses should either die before 30 or live past 80. Middle is "eh." The Beatles had both: a short career that ended definitively, then John Lennon was shot at 40, frozen in time. Paul McCartney lives on, performs at Glastonbury with John's vocals. Craig Brown: "The Rolling Stones just go on and on, but there's never as much of the Beatles as you want." Quality Over Quantity - Helen: "Incentive now is producing constantly for algorithms... That's neither fun nor produces the best work." Early career: say YES. Later career: "The most important thing you can say is no." Her metric: "Can I say honestly, that was the best I could do? I didn't cut corners. That's the metric." Podcast: advised to do 2-3 episodes weekly for rankings, has been doing weekly for 10.5 years. Shows that went daily? He stopped listening. "I'm gonna increase the quality bar, not the quantity." Robert Greene: "Do not speak unless you can improve upon the silence." Improving the Silence - "My dad's not the loudest at family gatherings, doesn't have the most words, but when he speaks, we all stop and listen. That's who you want to be." Applies to meetings: people vomit garbage to show how smart they are instead of waiting for something valuable. When you speak, people should want to listen. Thomas Edison: Execution Over Ideas - The Light bulb wasn't Edison's conceptual innovation - the idea dated to Humphrey Davy. What was incredible: Edison made it work (vacuum seal, filament) and created the New York power grid. Helen: "Lots of people can have the idea that a man should be an ant. Not everybody can write the Ant-Man screenplay and have it produced." His Menlo Park lab lasted because he worked with brilliant people on problems they cared about. Logbook shows assistants' names on breakthroughs - collaborative. We underrate logistics and execution. Most "light bulb moments" are actually slow, incremental, contested creations. Why Helen Chooses Teams Over Independence - Could go independent on Substack for more money. Works at The Atlantic for: resources, legal support, editorial integrity, and colleagues she doesn't want to let down. Helen: "You must have people in your life, you think, I wanna do work that they like. Finding those people who make you your best version of yourself." Ryan connects to athletics: "Being surrounded by people better than me forces me to raise my game. That's why we want to be part of a great team." Sample First, Specialize Later - High achievers have "hot streak" later, but sample early - trying different things, learning transferable skills. Helen: "Take the first job at a publication you could learn from. Even if not wildly interested, if it's good and they'll hold you to high standards, do it. Your second job is infinitely easier to get than your first." Work Around People Who Care - Helen: "If you work somewhere where no one cares, it's very hard. You can't care on your own. You'll become infected by the apathy around you." Nothing is more boring than a job you don't care about. Don't Wait to Live - Some devote long hours to something for money, promising they'll retire at 30 and then live. Helen: "What if you spent all that time chasing something and then you get hit by a truck? Don't wait for it. Just try and enjoy what you're doing right now." Quotes: "You don't just have to be Leonardo, you also need Florence."  "We overrate the self-promoters and underrate the humble achievers."  "Smart people don't always prosper. You need the gears that connect the engine to the wheels."  "The most important thing you can say is no."  "Do not speak unless you can improve upon the silence." - Robert Greene "You can't care on your own. You'll become infected by the apathy around you."  It's funny that we have come to use the phrase ‘lightbulb moment' to describe a momentary flash of inspiration, because the birth of the lightbulb was slow, incremental, and highly contested.

It's National Cybersecurity Awareness Month here in the U.S. and in many places around the world. Cyber continues to be a top risk among organizations of all sizes in the public and private sectors. [3:35] Joining me today to discuss cybersecurity awareness is Gwenn Cujdik. You may remember her from the RIMS AXA XL webinar on September 4th, “Lock Down & Level Up.” [3:52] During that webinar, we had a brief, fascinating discussion about her time as an Assistant District Attorney in Pennsylvania. [4:01] I wanted to learn more about how someone transitions from a colorful career to cybersecurity and eventually becomes the Incident Response and Cyber Services Lead for North America at AXA XL. [4:15]  She's got a lot on her plate. She's got a huge risk radar. We're going to talk all about it and help all the risk managers out there use her insight and perspective to protect their organizations. Let's get to it! [4:28] Interview! Gwenn Cujdik, welcome to RIMScast! [5:09] Gwenn is Incident Response and Cyber Services Lead for North America at AXA XL. When a client has a cyber breach, they call AXA XL and work with Gwenn's teams. [5:42] Gwenn works on training her teams to be able to respond, setting up procedures and processes to make the response seamless and collaborative, and making sure the clients get consistent service, whoever handles the call. [6:16] Gwen's team has 18. Four are in leadership with 14 more team members. Two managers directly supervise the teams to help them with answers to questions about unusual situations. [6:50] Gwenn helps the teams understand massive events and how they might affect AXA XL and their clients, how to interact with brokers, and technical matters. She helps the team understand coverages when it comes to something unique. “It's all hands on deck for us!” [7:55] Gwenn says, Fighting crime is a part of who I am. She is driven by helping others get through some terrible times. She has seen the worst of the worst. Sometimes it takes just one helping hand to get people through tough times. She has seen how impactful that can be. [8:44] Sometimes, in a crisis, how people interact with the victim could be the recipe for them to recover fully from that event. Gwenn has seen people recover, take back their lives, move forward, and be survivors. She has seen corporations and companies do so and become better. [9:39] Justin repeats that Gwenn has seen the worst of the worst: homicides, murders, abuses of women and children, arson, and more. She has seen it all, including things that she wishes she hadn't seen. [10:27] Gwenn compares cyber incident response to her ADA work. A prosecutor has to be able to handle things under pressure. The best prosecutors are looking to do the right thing. Gwenn has met many people who, absent the crime, would have been friends. [11:06] You have to be able to see there's a human on the other side, and there are humans that they hurt. You do right by understanding that there are a lot of players involved, who are humans. [11:26] It helps you understand where somebody might be coming from. It helps you understand why they might be screaming at you. “I'm just the messenger, but let's talk about why you're so upset.” [11:39] Gwenn says one of the cool things about being a prosecutor is that every case you have presents a different set of facts and circumstances. There's a law that's intertwined with it, and that's interesting for Gwenn. [11:54] The first time Gwenn had an arson case, she had to work with the Fire Marshals to understand how they knew the fire started here. How did they know it was a chemical? She started with the Fire Marshals and then went to the crime scene to talk to Forensic Chemists. [12:11] The Forensic Investigators explained the chemistry behind the Molotov Cocktail that was thrown through the window. This was how the fire started, and then it enveloped the room. [12:22] When Gwenn first worked with DNA, she found it to be incredibly complicated. She had to learn it to be able to explain it. Her job was to explain to 12 people why DNA mattered, why it's this guy, and not anybody else, that committed this crime; the numbers are insane. [12:44] It could be one in a hundred quadrillion that it's another person. Those numbers are insane, and it's really hard to understand. [12:56] Gwenn was in the DA's office when cell site analysis came around; being able to triangulate where someone is, using cell towers. The Philadelphia Field Office had one of the pioneers in that science. Gwenn learned from him. [13:13] One of Gwenn's matters was a homicide. They tracked the defendant from the scene of the crime, through public transportation, back to his house, using cell site triangulation. While they were mapping, the actor Joe Piscopo came by, touring the building. Gwenn was an SNL fan. [14:23] Gwenn's prosecutorial experience translates to cyber in that each matter is a little different. There's a bad guy at the other end. Gwenn is not sympathetic to the bad guys because they are anonymous. Nobody sees them or knows them. It's usually a criminal enterprise. [14:59] It's a group of people working together, motivated by money and wreaking havoc on people who are trying to make a living and support their families. The bad guys want to extort millions of dollars and put businesses and livelihoods in danger. [15:42] In Philadelphia, the elite of the elite prosecutors worked in homicide. Some spend 20 or 30 years there. Gwenn was an ADA for 15 years, but couldn't see herself doing it for 20 or 30 years. She wanted to stay positive and be a force for good when she was dealing with bad. [16:34] She wondered where she could go to have a similar impact for good, investigating, and helping people get through an awful time. [16:45] Gwenn had a friend who worked with her in the Family Violence and Sexual Assault Unit. She had left the office to work for a new law firm doing cyber incident response. She called Gwenn and said she would be really good at it. She explained it to Gwenn. [17:50] Gwenn interviewed with the firm and got an offer the day she interviewed. She realized that was what she wanted to do. Some former prosecutors were doing it. There were some amazing people, and she wanted to be a part of that, something new, interesting, and growing. [18:15] Gwenn wanted to be challenged and get to help people. Once she discovered it, she couldn't think of a better transition for people who are in law enforcement than going into cybersecurity.

[20:14] Gwenn says cybersecurity takes a village. What she learned in criminal prosecution is that as long as there have been humans, there has been crime. We're fortunate as a society to have laws, law enforcement, governing bodies, and organizations to keep crime down. [20:54] It's not dissimilar to cybersecurity. If Gwenn were talking to a board, she would say, It takes everybody in your community, in your organization, to build resilience, protect yourself from cybercrime, and react to it. [21:12] Gwenn says a big mistake people often make is thinking incident response is a job for just their tech team. The IT team is not trained in all the various fields you need to be an expert in to get through a cyber incident. [21:41] Your IT team will be able to get you up and running, collaborate, and be a good foundation for the incident response, working with outside experts. It takes people who understand the law and who understand communications. [21:54] It takes people who understand the brand, who are the heart of the organization, to be able to respond. Your CISO may say, Here's how I think that we should respond, but your CEO may say, This isn't how I think we would respond to an event like this. Keep in mind who we are. [22:32] Your legal team is there to say, Here's why we can't do that, the risk is too great; It will be worse if you do X, Y, Z; You shouldn't do that because you need to be compliant with the law. [23:11] Gwenn says good leaders lead best when they model. If you expect people to be open-minded and collaborative, you need to be the same. For the most part, organization leadership is very aware that cybersecurity is an important part of who they are and will be. [23:55] Gwenn has met a ton of CEOs who admit they don't know what they don't know and ask for help to understand cybersecurity so they can help their organizations in the best way possible. Some CEOs are thinking ahead and putting teams together that understand their role. [24:20] Gwenn has encountered CEOs who are just messing up the process. One wanted to invite his wife, not an employee, to the conversation because she would like to hear about it.  From a legal and business perspective, it's very risky for the company. [25:04] One Final Break! The Spencer Educational Foundation's goal to help build a talent pipeline of risk management and insurance professionals is achieved, in part, by its collaboration with risk management and insurance educators across the U.S. and Canada. [25:23] Since 1999, Spencer has awarded over $2.9 million to create more than 570 Risk Management Internships. The Internship Grants application process is now open through October 15th, 2025. [25:39] To be eligible, risk managers must be based in the U.S., Canada, or Bermuda. A link to the Internship Grants page is in this episode's show notes. You can always visit SpencerEd.org, as well. [25:53] Let's Conclude Our National Cybersecurity Awareness Month Interview with Gwenn Cujdik! [26:05] It's National Cybersecurity Awareness Month 2025, here in the U.S. It's a big month for everyone in Gwenn's house; they have to pull their own weight a little more because she's traveling a lot, she's out a lot, and there are a lot of conferences and meetings going on! [26:29] Gwenn tries not to shove everything cyber just into October. October is busy, and she loves it. [26:56] On October 29th, at the Sheraton New York Times Square Hotel in Manhattan, Gwenn will be the Conference Co-Chair for the Zywave Cyber Risk Insights New York event. It's a full day with a lot of very knowledgeable individuals from a range of companies. [27:50] It is one of Gwenn's favorite events. It's a day packed with good information. She would love to see more risk managers and CISOs join it. The amount of information you can get in one day is almost unbelievable. The content is pretty diverse. [28:21] It covers claims, the state of the market, the different ways threat actors are attacking, how to prepare better for attacks and for business continuity, and how to organize invoices and costs as you're going through an incident response. [29:01] Gwenn says, Get the small things right so you can deal with the big things. While you tackle the small things, you can talk about whether or not the law requires you to file notifications to seven million people and how to get through that as a company. [29:22] Gwen says it's a great event. Gwenn will be there, giving opening remarks. Justin will be there, after attending a heavy metal concert the night before. The link is in this episode's show notes. [30:52] When Gwenn entered the cybersecurity field, she was surprised at the female presence. One of the managing partners who interviewed her was a female. There are also savvy female hackers out there. [31:35] Gwenn says that in criminal law, people have trouble understanding that women can commit crimes, the same way that men can. Gwenn points out Elizabeth Holmes and the book Bad Blood, about Theranos. [32:23] Gwenn mentions a woman in government who embezzled $22 million from her community to show horses. [32:42] Gwenn says, in terms of cybersecurity being a male-dominated field, we're all learning together; anybody who tries and is committed to it can do it. Because it's new, people come from different backgrounds with diverse experiences. [33:11] Gwenn says, We're seeing value in people coming from different careers and different industries and seeing their skillsets translate to cybersecurity. In this field, you need great diversity with people from all different backgrounds to be able to tackle this. [33:38] It's not one-size-fits-all. There are personalities involved. There are different businesses involved, from small to large, public to government. You have to be able to understand a huge variety of people and businesses. You have to understand a huge amount of technology. [34:00] Gwenn talks about the differences between cybersecurity and other industries. eDiscovery for cyber is not the same as eDiscovery for litigation. You need special people and tooling, and you have to understand what the tooling is, which helps you figure out timing. [34:43] Technology is always developing. Gwenn compares it to cat and mouse. We're constantly chasing the bad guys to figure out what they're doing. Sometimes it's reactive. They'll think of something new, and we've never seen it before. This is how we get through it. [35:04] The tools and a skillset you've used dealing with everything before help you tackle what's coming. Even the way we investigate and respond to things has changed. [35:16] Gwenn says when we came on the scene, we would grab images of all the computers. If there were 50 computers, you would have 50 images, which would mean people going through a massive amount of data, taking a really long time. [35:30] We don't do that now. We have tools and technology that can get through a system programmatically, to pull the evidence we need to do these investigations without having to go into a shop and take copies of laptops or servers to get through that. [35:49] That makes a potential difference of millions of dollars in responding. It's the difference between months and a month to respond. [36:15] Gwenn has not seen a malicious actor with technology or an algorithm that is beyond what she has seen before. She says, We have the technology they have. You'd be surprised how much private industry gives to our community in terms of intelligence and technology. [36:35] Gwenn adds, We work with the government to find out solutions. The industry is armed pretty well. Gwenn has seen some things that have impressed her. One attacker was pulling searches from a legal hold, getting into sensitive information. [37:16] Their searches looked legitimate, like what an attorney would look for, so it didn't set off bells and whistles. Gwenn wonders how they knew to look in a legal hold. Were they lawyered? That was something small but ingenious to Gwenn. [37:46] Seeing a smart attack invigorates Gwenn to use her brain and try to be as smart or smarter. She says that's what is great about this job. It's constantly changing. You're constantly moving. It's not for weak minds. [38:11] To excel, you have to be smart, tenacious, and love learning. You have to love that you may be an expert in this, but you may become obsolete. You've got to keep your game up.  Gwenn says she is just a big nerd for it. [38:33] Attackers are using AI more. Gwenn recalls two incidents recently where two different groups, for two different reasons, were attacking Salesforce. That's the rub of being popular. One group used AI to search quickly for sensitive information to leverage attacks on companies. [39:27] Unfortunately, people are reusing passwords, and the bad guys know that. Gwenn says you'd better not! [39:57] Justin comments that AI being used for a cyber attack should be on companies' risk radars. How can they adjust defense strategies to stay ahead of something like that? [40:08] Gwenn is dealing with that at this moment. If you are a big company with subsidiaries and locations around the country or the world, segregate the networks. If an attack hits your facility in Oklahoma, they won't have access to your facility in Belgium. [40:38] If your locations are networked, it's a domino effect. If one goes down, they all go down. In terms of business resilience, that is the one factor that can tumble everything with the press of a button. [40:55] The tools that bad guys are using are meant to get them through fast. They get in, use AI to conduct reconnaissance, and get terabytes of data out quickly. It's important to take every effort to reduce the severity of an attack in its spread and the amount of data stolen. [41:40] Can they move laterally within a company or elevate privileges by getting to the admin, who has access to everything? It's great to focus on how to prevent it, but the reality is, they're going to find a way. It's not if, it's when. [42:09] While you have to prevent the attack from happening, and be vigilant. If you get an attack, you have to make sure it's small, you respond quickly, and it's not going to hit every facet of your company. Attacks that hit every facet of the company are the most devastating. [42:39] Justin says you've been wonderful. You've given us so much to think about when it comes to National Cybersecurity Awareness Month. You do great work! I look forward to seeing you in more AXA XL RIMS collaborative webinars!

In this episode of The Mind Shift Podcast, Erwin and Aaron McManus take a hard look at the fine line between failed ideas and fraudulent schemes. From Tai Lopez's $112M SEC indictment to Elizabeth Holmes and the fall of Theranos, they explore how ambition can devolve into deception, and why proof of concept is critical in business, leadership, and communication. Along the way, they even break down the illusion behind Amazon's early wireless shopping system and what it teaches us about trust.The conversation then turns to the world of media and public discourse, sparked by Jimmy Kimmel's apology after his recent controversial remarks that led to his suspension and subsequent reinstatement. Was his apology on his show sincere, or just self-preservation? Erwin and Aaron dig into the language of apologies, the role of sincerity in public life, and what it reveals about our cultural climate. From there, they dive deep into censorship, free speech, and the hypocrisy of how different figures, like President Trump, are treated depending on political affiliation, unpacking the legal and cultural ripple effects of his battles with media companies.Finally, the episode broadens into questions of corruption, political polarization, and the role of education in shaping the next generation. Erwin argues that without free speech, truth and accountability crumble, while Aaron highlights how media bias continues to fuel division. Together they make the case for rebuilding trust, protecting free expression, and investing in education as the path toward a healthier, more hopeful future.--Love the episodes?

Today, Dan & Stephanie try to cover a difficult topic using stories that can happen with neurodiverse couples and weaving in the story of Elizabeth Holmes/ Theranos after seeing the documentary on HBO Max about remembering differently, different priorities, and lying to oneself. Often, the couple remembers something differently (more often than not) and gets stuck in the weeds on whether a fact is true or not true instead of solving the actual problem or coming up with a future solution from hindsight learning. Many of our couples get stuck in what is sin, what is a lie, when is this a character flaw or issue? Stephanie began the discussion by setting up some Gottman research that states 69% of couples' issues are perpetual and unsolvable, so what do you do?In neurodiverse couples, you can guarantee that you will remember situations and events differently.You can count on the two of you to have different perspectives and priorities- what do you do?Looking at the definition of a lie:General Definition:A lie is generally defined as a false statement made with the intent to deceive someone.It involves making a statement that the speaker knows to be untrue, to cause the listener to believe it is true.Lies involve the intention to deceive or omit something so as not to have a penalty or consequence.What to do? After listening to the documentary The Inventor: Out for Blood in Silicon Valley, Dan and Stephanie arrive at different places where they believe Elizabeth Holmes (no relation) is lying with intent. Is she lying to herself? Stuck in dreams or expectations that will never be? Lying to others? What do you think?What do you do when you remember differently and need to solve a problem, or you have differences and wants and needs and priorities?Dan and Stephanie also talk about the perspective gap and learning from it, and how to stay relational when you disagree.An older podcast called Stuck in the Weeds is mentioned- you can find that here:https://www.spreaker.com/episode/stuck-in-the-weeds-communication-collaboration-misfires--64597917 Find the entire catalog here:https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/neurodiverse-christian-couples--4992356or from our home pagewww.christianneurodiversemarriage.com Find out what courses are available at www.holmesasr.com

Dani and Gabe are finally back after a little break and while they've got some pretty depressing life updates to share (don't worry, they keep it brief), it's nothing compared to the wild ride of this week's story.   We're diving into the rise and spectacular fall of Elizabeth Holmes, the infamous Theranos founder who went from Silicon Valley's golden girl to federal inmate. From black turtlenecks and fake test results to billions lost and lives affected, this one's got everything: ambition, deception, and a voice that got weirdly deep.   Buckle up, this story is as unbelievable as it is unsettling.   Story starts: 7:20   SOURCES: Bad Blood: Secrets and Lies in a Silicon Valley Startup https://www.forbes.com/profile/elizabeth-holmes/ https://www.nytimes.com/2023/05/07/business/elizabeth-holmes-theranos-interview.html https://www.vanityfair.com/news/2023/05/elizabeth-holmes-new-york-times?srsltid=AfmBOoqg-FLi8Qb3IHCiJCGMuvSsFmklmLlW4G4n5YbOaiGIlujQW8iW

I går noterades Klarna på New York-börsen. Hur gick noteringen och vilka är de största molnen på Klarnas himmel framöver? Dessutom: Sebastian Siemiatkowskis egen liverapportering från börsgolvet. Vad har rapparen Meek Mill, den okända webbläsaren Arc och Nvidias konstiga hyresaffärer gemensamt? Jo, de är alla oroväckande tecken i tiden, säger Björn Jeffery. Och så delar vi med oss av den dömda medtech-entreprenören Elizabeth Holmes (känd från podden) bästa diet-tips - direkt från fängelset.

Send us a textIn this gripping episode, I dive back into the explosive circles drawn by butler Alfredo Rodriguez in Jeffrey Epstein's mid-2000s black book, a pivotal piece of evidence submitted to the Justice Department, continuing our probe into the scandalous figures linked to Epstein's world. I start with Peter Thiel's jaw-dropping announcement of his secretive "The Antichrist: A Four-Part Lecture Series" for tech and political elites at San Francisco's Commonwealth Club, hosted by the Acts 17 Collective, teasing his provocative transhumanist views on humanity's future and Palantir's vast contracts with agencies like the CIA, FBI, NSA, Department of Defense, UK's NHS, and Israel's IDF—hinting at a perspective so wild it'll make you question his influence. Then, I shift to the black book's final names, beginning with Courtney Love's multiple circled entries, exploring her chaotic 2000-2005 era of arrests, partying, and a bizarre late-night Epstein-related encounter detailed in her memoir Dirty Blonde that'll leave you stunned. I also tease explosive connections to Leslie Wexner's Victoria's Secret empire, a young model's frequent Lolita Express flights with high-profile figures, Virginia Giuffre's witness list naming major celebrities, and a shadowy network of surveillance systems, shredded evidence, and a Palm Beach neighbor who saw too much—all pointing to a dark web of elite secrets without revealing the most shocking twists.

If you constantly feel on edge, like a wave of anxiety is always crashing directly into your nervous system, then I have some tough news for you: The root of anxiety is almost always a lack of integrity in some aspect of your life. When you tell yourself one thing, but then do another thing, your body keeps score. It knows you're lying to yourself (and to others). And this is where integrity fractures, causing insurmountable anxiety, agitation, and a complete loss of peace and fulfillment.  But you know what? Even if your lack of integrity has caused mental distress, it's possible to claw your way out of the hole you've built and rebuild your self-trust. It won't be easy or pretty. But the deep sense of relief and peace you feel on the other side will be worth it.  In today's show, you'll discover why integrity feeds happiness & fulfillment, how the consequences of broken integrity could literally land you in a federal prison like Elizabeth Holmes, and the 4-step process for cultivating your integrity and reclaiming your mental health.  Listen now.  Show Highlights Include: The cautionary tale about the true, real-world cost of acting without integrity (and how it got Elizabeth Holmes, founder of Theranos, serving 11 years in federal prison) (0:44)  The “Showshen” secret for developing an ironclad sense of integrity before a lack of integrity rips everything good from your life (4:15)  How living two or three lives at once not only fractures your integrity, but also slowly eats away at your sense of fulfillment (5:40)  Why developing your sense of integrity will actually energize you (even if it seems like a tough hill to climb at the beginning) (7:01)  The one common denominator behind almost every psychotherapeutic problem and every therapy appointment (8:05)  How integrity physically reduces your cortisol levels (the stress hormone) permanently (9:43)  The insidious way lying to yourself creates anxiety and self-doubt and demolishes your self-trust (and how this applies to even innocent white lies) (11:06)  12 real-world consequences of broken integrity that you may not notice now, but will come back to haunt you (14 :56)  Listening to this client story will forever change the way you think about anxiety (16:58)  The 4-step formula to cultivate your integrity and create a life filled with peace and harmony and fulfillment (20:26)  For more about David Tian, go here: https://www.davidtianphd.com/about/  Want more success in leadership, deeper connections, or a greater sense of fulfillment?

Send us a textI dive into this nearly two-hour deep dive starting with Ghislaine Maxwell's legal chaos where she's been subpoenaed by the House Oversight Committee, wants clemency, has petitioned the Supreme Court for an appeal, and her legal team has approached Trump asking for a pardon, plus she's been secretly moved to a low-security federal prison in Fort Worth, Texas where Elizabeth Holmes and Real Housewives Jen Shaw are serving their sentences, which definitely looks like some sort of deal is in the works, but here's where it gets really interesting - I expose this woman named Anya Wick who claims to be Jeffrey Epstein's niece AND Shia LaBeouf's twin sister AND Walt Disney's great-granddaughter, which is obviously complete bullshit, but people need to know about these frauds, then the bombshell comes when I unpack why attorney Bobbi Sternheim representing both Ghislaine Maxwell AND Nicholas Tartaglione (Epstein's former cellmate who's now convicted of quadruple murder) isn't actually that weird legally, but what IS weird is that she holds top secret SCI clearance and specializes in terrorism and national security cases - so why is she working on sex trafficking and murder cases, and even weirder, she got appointed to Tartaglione's case just ten days after Epstein died, then I play Trump's recent comments about why he threw Epstein out of Mar-a-Lago for stealing his spa workers, including what sounds like Virginia Roberts Giuffre, and you can hear him practically confirming everything we suspected, but the real meat comes when I break down the Bill Gates connection through Boris Nikolic, who was mysteriously named as backup executor in Epstein's will just two days before Epstein died, even though Nikolic says he hadn't spoken to Epstein in years, and I explain how this was clearly Epstein's "FU" to Gates, exposing their deeper ties than anyone knew, and how Nikolic was the middleman coordinating between Gates and Epstein for years, plus I dive into that Russian bridge player Mila Antonova that Epstein allegedly used to blackmail Gates over an affair, and how Gates met with Epstein way more than he's ever admitted, then comes the final hour with more of Maria Farmer's lost interview, where she details being kidnapped at Les Wexner's Ohio compound, how all of Epstein's surveillance footage went directly to Wexner's house, her escape with her little brothers, and the aftermath with Vicki Ward destroying the 2003 Vanity Fair story that could have saved all those girls in Florida, and Maria drops bombs about Morgan Fairchild being at Epstein's office "like a little blow-up doll,"  what she thinks Epstein and Ghislaine relationship was. This is the interview that's been hidden for years, and now you get to hear why certain people never wanted it to come out. For the Full epsodes go here for only $6.00 per month plus more show! https://www.patreon.com/c/DishingDramaWithDanaWilkeySupport the showDana is on Cameo!Follow Dana: @Wilkey_Dana$25,000 Song - Apple Music$25,000 Song - SpotifyTo support the show and listen to full episodes, become a member on PatreonTo learn more about sponsorships, email DDDWpodcast@gmail.comDana's YouTube Channel

This week, the U.S. government takes another L in court as a judge rules that handing out personal data like free candy to the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) is, in fact, a privacy violation. Meanwhile, Elizabeth Holmes and Sunny Balwani's dreams of walking free are crushed as a judge upholds their fraud convictions and massive fines. Sorry, no Silicon Valley redemption arc for you. Over in crypto, Bitcoin took a wild nosedive, sending traders into full panic mode before bouncing back. Trump Coin also rode the rollercoaster but, let's be honest, it's still circling the drain.In corporate chaos, Warner Bros. Discovery slashed its gaming division, Google axed more employees while crying about AI costs, and an AI-generated video of Trump sucking on Musk's toes somehow took over HUD office TVs. Speaking of Musk, federal tech staffers are resigning en masse rather than work for DOGE, and the FAA is cozying up to SpaceX while pretending it's totally not a conflict of interest. Over in Big Tech, Chegg is suing Google for stealing their content, and Meta can't stop Instagram from flooding users' feeds with violent and NSFW Reels. Also, Grok 3, Musk's AI pet project, handed out chemical weapon blueprints like a particularly unhinged WikiHow before xAI scrambled to cover their tracks.On the media front, Andor is coming back with a binge-friendly release schedule, Kathleen Kennedy is finally exiting Lucasfilm, and Daredevil: Born Again is getting early buzz. YouTube now claims a billion monthly podcast viewers, Fyre Festival 2 is happening because we clearly learned nothing from the first one, and Jeff Bezos has decided The Washington Post will now be his personal capitalism fan club. Meanwhile, Microsoft's AI Copilot is helpfully explaining how to pirate Windows, Skype is getting sent to the great app graveyard in the sky, and Google is making it slightly less impossible to remove your personal info from search results.
