On The Metal
Theranos - A Great Episode
The episode actually on Theranos is pretty tough to beat. And the duration of the fraud is also pretty impressive. We've gone into some more of the social sides of engineering of software engineering. A lot of those have been really important too. It's kind of been interesting to listen to those even in hindsight, because now that as young as this thing is, it spans a period of time where things have really turned.
Bryan and Steve are joined by Adam to revisit some highlights from almost two years of the Oxide and Friends live show and podcast.
