Elizabeth Holmes Invited Cameras Into Her Final Weeks of Freedom—Because Apparently the Theranos Story Needed Another Plot Twist

Just when I thought the Elizabeth Holmes saga had finally exhausted every available genre—business scandal, courtroom drama, psychological thriller, cautionary tale, prestige television, podcast obsession, and black-turtleneck cosplay—it has returned as something even stranger: a Nathan Fielder documentary. Yes, that Nathan Fielder. The man who has spent years turning uncomfortable silences, social experiments, elaborate simulations, and emotionally bewildered human beings into some of the most fascinating television ever made has pointed a camera at the former Theranos founder. The result is You Can See Everything , a documentary co-directed by Fielder and filmmaker Lance Oppenheim. The film reportedly begins 34 days before Holmes reported to federal prison in May 2023. She invited a skeptical film crew into her home and allowed them to document her final weeks of freedom with her partner, Billy Evans, and their two young children.

York County Gets a 61,000 Sq. Ft. Dose of Retail Therapy: Academy Sports and Outdoors Moves In


Ah, yes, just what York County needed—another 61,000 square feet of consumer temptation. Academy Sports and Outdoors, the Texas-based retailer that’s basically a Cabela’s met a Dick’s Sporting Goods and said, “Hold my beer,” is gracing Springettsbury Township with its grand opening on Monday.

Located at 2801 E. Market St., this shiny new box store is the chain’s 300th location nationwide. And nothing says “we’re thriving” like celebrating a milestone by bringing 60 new jobs to a community that probably didn’t ask for them. But hey, employment is employment, right?

Academy’s expansion isn’t just limited to Pennsylvania. They’re also spreading their capitalist wings into Florida, Mississippi, and Ohio, because who doesn’t need a fresh set of football pads or a brand-new kayak in the heart of Buckeye country?

For those who aren’t familiar, Academy Sports and Outdoors is like the Swiss Army knife of retail—offering everything from baseball bats to backyard grills. Their catalog includes both national brands and private labels, which is a nice way of saying, “We’ve got Nike and also some stuff you’ve never heard of but might be cheap enough to take a gamble on.”

But wait, there’s more! Not only can you buy your gear, but you can also take advantage of their free services. Grill and bike assembly? Got it. Scope mounting and bore sighting? Sure, because nothing says “suburban family outing” like fine-tuning your hunting rifle next to the pool noodle aisle. They’ll even spool your fishing line and exchange your propane tank—because there’s nothing quite like the smell of freshly threaded line and grilled bratwurst to get you in the shopping spirit.

If you’re eager to join the throngs of bargain hunters and outdoor enthusiasts, you can text YORK to 22369 for more information. Just be prepared for the inevitable onslaught of marketing texts reminding you that you really do need that inflatable paddleboard or tactical flashlight.

In the end, Academy Sports and Outdoors might just be the kind of retail therapy York County needs—or at least, the kind it’s getting. Whether you’re looking to gear up for your next big adventure or just wander the aisles wondering how you ended up in a store where deer feeders and yoga mats coexist, Academy has got you covered. See you on Monday.
