Tim Ferris
The name is misspelled here: the author and podcaster's surname is Ferriss, with a double “s.”
Full reasoning
The post refers to the entrepreneur and author behind The 4-Hour Workweek. His name is spelled Tim Ferriss, not Tim Ferris.
This spelling is confirmed both on Tim Ferriss's official website and on the publisher page for The 4-Hour Workweek, which lists the book as being by Timothy Ferriss.

Jeanna Fischer
The author's name is misspelled here: *The Actor's Life* was written by Jenna Fischer, not Jeanna Fischer.
Full reasoning
The book The Actor's Life is credited on the publisher's page as being By Jenna Fischer. That directly contradicts the post's listing of the author as Jeanna Fischer.
Since this is a bibliographic entry, the correct author name is straightforward to verify from the publisher's own book page.
