Just saw the Elizabeth Holmes movie. It's a deeply inventive film & fascinating character study. But I represented clients in the Theranos investigation, and in case anyone got sucked in by the deliberate cinematic ambiguity: she was responsible for a massive fraud. Hard stop.

Do you like post-Pet Sounds mid/late-60s Beach Boys? I updated an old mix of very Brian Wilson-esque songs and posted it online for your listening pleasure. Enjoy! jitterywhiteguymusic.com/2026/10/add-soβ¦
