What’s the Deal With Billy Evans? A Spoiler-Filled Guide to ‘You Can See Everything’
This week, we focus on Billy Evans, the breakout character of the documentary “You Can See Everything,” and his Theranos-esque new blood-testing start-up. Rob Copeland, a New York Times finance reporter, and Erin Griffith, a tech reporter, join Max Read to discuss what Evans is like when the cameras are off, whether his start-up is a real company and how Silicon Valley is reacting to the film. Then, we break down CoreWeave’s debt, a possible SpaceX-Tesla merger and Joel Kaplan’s Meta exit. Finally, a returning guest: John Carreyrou joins us to answer listener questions about Elizabeth Holmes.
Guests:
- Erin Griffith, a technology reporter at The New York Times
- Rob Copeland, a finance reporter at The New York Times
- John Carreyrou, an investigative reporter at The New York Times and author of “Bad Blood”
