Q as in Cucumber Podcast

Hey Q Crew! We have been waiting for years!  So of course we had to record a quick reaction to the Elizabeth Holmes sentencing. Plus, we should have seen it coming but didn't...she had one more surprise for us, of course! Enjoy!

Hey Q Crew! Sorry We’ve been AWOL for so long! We are plotting a return, but Tanya and I just HAD to record our recap of the January 6th House Committee hearings SO FAR. I am managing to get this out minutes before the primetime finale on 7/21. We will have another episode to recap that so stay tuned! I didn’t do much cleaning up on this. I just let us rant. If you are a MAGA supporter that happens to listen to our show, this episode is not for you. Hopefully we will see you back for our normal episodes. WARNING: We can’t help but curse even more than normal. Since we are talking about the attempted illegal overthrow of our government, it seems justified. Enjoy!

Hey Q Crew! This week we conclude our deep dive into the company called “Worse Than Theranos” by New York Magazine. Insys Therapeutics.

Hey Q Crew! This week we start our deep dive into the company called “Worse Than Theranos” by New York Magazine. Insys Therapeutics. Our main sources are the fabulous book by Evan Hughes called “The Hard Sell: Crime and Punishment at an Opioid Startup” and The New York Magazine article linked below. In this first episode we cover a little history of the drug at the center of all this- Subsys. Which is an under the tongue fentanyl spray designed for “break through cancer pain”. However, it was mostly used by pain management doctors who were bribed by Insys to push it to their patients and turn them into addicts. We close out by getting to know the main players: John Kapoor, Michael Babich, Matthew Napoletano, and Alec Burlakoff. The 4 Horseman of the Apocalypse.

Finally, before we get into or deep dive that will be coming out over the next few weeks, we discuss a listener email about a woman who mistook a pet store as a butcher shop. Buckle up!

Hey Q Crew! Tanya is currently busy with a big new life change! It’s a good thing, I swear, but I want to let her share the details. So, since she’s going to be busy for a little bit I have decided to move forward with an idea I have been kicking around for a while and put out a few solo episodes. Like many people, I am true crime OBSESSED. And I come across stories while looking for deep dive topics that don’t quite fit into our Q as in Cucumber lane. So while Tanya is out I am going to share those stories that I find super fascinating. Stories about people who make the worst choices in the name of greed. Hence, this is the first episode of Money & Murder w/ Lara Mack! If you guys like this series, please make sure to like comment share etc! But if this is not what you guys are into, feel free to let me know! On this first episode we dive headfirst into the tale of the 2009 Novack Murders. Ben Novack Jr and his mother Bernice were murdered just a few months apart-though one was written off as an accident initially. They were part of a legendary family with ties to people like Frank Sinatra, Bob Hope and JRK. Their family history is almost as intriguing as the story of their deaths. Who committed the crimes? Take a listen an find out! If you have requests for other stories I can cover for Money & Murder make sure to comment or send us an email to qasincucumber@yahoo.com.

Hey Q Crew! Well…. here we are. FINALLY. We have a verdict in the Elizabeth Holmes / Theranos trial! It has been a long road and the results are the epitome of a mixed bag. We do not feel as satisfied as we would have liked, but considering we thought she was going to get off completely, we are satisfied enough…I guess. If you need to get caught up, we have the links to the individual episodes further below. However, here is the link to our playlist of all those episodes on YouTube! https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLx_q6cCrV0AEdl3IQuybQafKU2WIwwNql We discuss the charges, the verdicts for each, why we are ticked off, and what happens next…Good lord there is still at least one more trial to go. Ugh. Special thanks to all who have been on this journey with us! We started covering this shortly before Tanya was diagnosed with breast cancer. So, as time went on, this story repeatedly hit a nerve harder and harder for us. All the people who have kept up with the every detail, even when we couldn’t, and sent us updates, left such nice comments, sent messages encouraging us (even the people who didn't leave such nice comments), and for the love in general-THANK YOU! We appreciate it more than you know. So cheers to all of you! Pour one out for making it through in one piece. Love your faces and Smooches!

Hey Q Crew! Welcome to another (partial) Ménage à Trois with Ms. Jessica James joining us about half way through. We break down the testimony and cross examination of Elizabeth Holmes and what is expected to be next in the never ending trial. We also begin our coverage of Better.com and it’s CEO Vishal Garg firing 900 people via Zoom. Some of our listeners were part of his “unlucky group” to get chewed up and spit out by this raggedy company right before the holidays. They have been emailing us since it happened. We will go into more details on that later. However, for now, I guess you could say we are starting to roast his chestnuts on an open fire! Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays! Next week we will have our Tiger King 2 and Doc Antle review and then we will talk to you guys after the new year! Love your faces!

Hey Q Crew! Drumroll please….WE HAVE A GRANDBABY! Baby AJ is here! But because we know y’all want us to get to the Elizabeth Holmes of it all I have put timestamps below of our different topics, although I’m not fancy enough to know how to make it so you click on the time and it takes you to that spot. So, if that doesn’t work, my bad. I didn’t go to Stanford. I put the convo on Baby AJ at the end (even though we had that first). We also chat about our newest trash obsession, Netflix show Selling Sunset, Sharon’s Pumpkin pie roast, Sophia’s new car, and of course…Elizabeth Holmes, who I now will call the Christine Quinn of Silicon Valley. TRIGGER WARNING: I CANNOT stress enough…when we are talking about Elizabeth Holmes’ allegations of abuse against Sunny Balwani, I want to make it 1000000% clear that we are talking about HER. If you are a survivor of any kind of abuse, we are NOT talking about you. We are survivors and we have talked about that openly over the years. I hope we do not hurt anyone with this discussion. If we do, please accept our heartfelt apologies. Also, if you are currently still in a situation like that, there are resources. If you or someone you know is the victim of domestic abuse, please know that you are not alone. There is hope and there are organizations that can help. Visit https://www.thehotline.org/ for support and resources. Love your faces!

Hey Q Crew! Well we are back after our little Lularoe Vacay. Unfortunately, we have no grandbaby yet☹ But, the good news is that means we could get together and do some shit talking.

Hey Q Crew! Right off the top we had some audio quality challenges this week. We had a new set up with the fabulous Miss Jessica James joining us for some shenanigans and tomfoolery! We were just going to do a deep dive only, but the stuff in the Elizabeth Holmes / Theranos trial started poppin’ off a little and we just could wait. So we catch up on what happened this last week with the invisible lab director, petty actions against journalists, and the existence of an “innovation fee” perplexes us! Then Tanya slipped with some information on her personal life and Jess and I flipped out! Next week will be a deep dive and then we will get back to the Lizzie Caper. We are on baby watch for Tanya’s grandbaby Amaru who should be here any day now! So we might be a little delayed coming back. Ill keep you guys updated on our Facebook page with what’s going on! Love your faces!

Hey Q Crew! This week we kick things off with the telling of the “Barnes and Noble Incident” story. Then we dive into week 5 of the Elizabeth Holmes trial (and go back a little bit to cover some things that we missed from earlier in the trial). We discuss the fraudulent Pfizer endorsement, more texts between Sunny and Elizabeth, the brutal cross examination of Rosendorff (the head of the lab below Sunny), and Buddhist juror #4 who got excused.
