Episode 265 : Trish

Trigger Warning: In this episode we talk to a former Juror on a murder trial about a gruesome case in great detail. Please use discretion when listening. When Trish showed up for jury selection, she just thought she would be fulfilling her civic duty and would be dismissed and headed home shortly. Instead, Trish found herself seated in the jury box, selected for a local murder case, where a woman had been found beaten and murdered in her own home. Over the following days, Trish was thrust into the traumatic story, required to listen to every detail, look at every photo and hear the testimony of those involved to a staggering degree. And after hearing her story, it begged to question; Who is taking care of those involuntarily involved with traumatic cases after the case is over?

Episode 264 : How to Prosper in MLM and other BS

I can't get enough of this book, How to Make Big Money in Multi Level Marketing, so we are gonna start with Chapter 1, with added snarky commentary and get through this drivel together. In Chapter 1 we learn "How to Prosper and Enjoy the Good Life Through Multi Level Marketing" where we will learn what MLM is, what the future looks like for the industry, the differences between MLM and Franchising and how good of an investment this really is. Plus, the story of "George & DeDe Shaw" to round out the "things that didn't happen".

Episode 263 : Ruth Returns

Ruth, one of our guests from Season 1, comes back to update us on her life and share her cringey MLM journal entries. As Ruth reads her inner most thoughts as a Hun deep in Pure Romance, we comment and reflect on what she was saying and what she really meant in those last years leading up to finally leaving. From deeply empathic thoughts and actions to saying the quiet parts out loud, Ruth's journey out of MLM gives us an inside look into the mind of a Hun and reminds us what it looks like to start your life after MLM.

Episode 261 : Sophia

Sophia joined Amway as a vulnerable teenager who was just looking for adult mentorship and stability in her life. Through a series of tragic events, Sophia realized that life was far too short to be stuck in something so controlling and toxic, and despite the extreme guilt she felt to her upline, came to find out that she had one foot out the door already. But what happens when you know you have to leave, but you're not sure if you can function in life without your upline?

Episode 259 : Eva Collins

Eva Collins learned the hard way that the coaching and course industry is a less than scrupulous playground full of grifters and decided she needed to do something about it. In our conversation we cover the similarities of our own experiences in schemes, share the red flags to look out for when deciding to hire outside help and wax poetic on why the trolls are so triggered.

I enjoy listening to all the light hearted episodes and have been so surprised learning so much about all the MLMs and realizing I was sucked into joining a lot of online parties during lockdown haha! Roberta is really good at giving content warnings so I know when I should skip.

I listened to the pilot and then couldn’t get through the guest episode. I wanted to hear the guest tell her full story, but it was more like a girls night discussion than a podcast. I came to look at the other reviews it and seems like this issue is still going on. I wanted to love it!
Great info but let your guests speak

Stop talking so much! Let your guests speak. You don’t have to parrot everything they say with your own interpretation.

I might be a tiny bit partial, but that episode you did with Don might be the best thing I’ve heard in the last 87 minutes.
