1 hr 32 min - Episode 358 - FTC v. Amway - Part 1
Did you hear? Amway got smacked down by the FTC in a HISTORICAL decision featuring the largest MLM settlement ever at $225M. In true LAMLM fashion, we dove deep into the case to bring you all the juiciest details and even invited back a few of our former Amway guests to chat with us about this ruling, help answer some of our questions and even corroborate the FTC's findings.

1 hr 45 min - Episode 357 : Bridge Contracts - Part 2
Part 2 of our Bridge Contract series brings the piping hot tea from the archives of recent MLM Drama. I get so tired of hearing Huns claim that they've never heard of a bridge contract that I decided to dive real deep into AntiMLM Reddit and bring the receipts I could still find. You be the judge, did these MegaHuns receive bridge contracts? Or are they just like, super good at MLMing?
If you remember back to any of the stories told and can fill in any of the gaps, hit us up!

1 hr 11 min - Episode 356 : Bridge Contracts - Part 1
It's about time we sat down and talked about Bridge Contracts. You know, those hush-hush secret MLM recruiting bonuses Huns don't like to admit to taking. In Part 1 Mr. F and I tackle some of the more technical ins and outs of these contracts, how they work and who might be given one. We also have Friend of the Pod, Maile Cabral back on the show to give us some more of the inside scoop on how bridge contacts work from the inside.

1 hr 13 min - Episode 354 : Agara Life
After a much needed 7 month break, Julie Anderson is back to help me expose a new MLM on the block, Agara Life. Once I started looking to it, I found myself in some DEEP rabbit holes I did not expect, making connections to past MLMs with similar roots and even shadier histories. This episode is so full of red string, you may need to take notes so you don't get lost, but I assure you it's worth it and I've got all the receipts.
If you were involved in ANY of the MLM's looked into in this episode and want to share further information for this story, please do not hesitate to reach out.

59 min - Episode 352 : MLM Conventions
On July 29th 2026, Mr. F and I stepped off the southmost stop of the Las Vegas Monorail and into the MGM Grand Hotel and Casino. Maybe it was the heat of Vegas or maybe we were called to this spot, but we ended up smack dab in the middle of a Paparazzi Accessories Convention. I quickly made a TikTok video, and it exploded with questions and stories alike, leading to the inspiration of this episode, loaded with my own personal MLM convention stories as well as looking at an MLM Convention from both perspectives; the eager MLM rep and the AntiMLM Advocate who now knows better.

1 hr 6 min - Episode 351 : The Rise and Fall of Longaberger
We're back with another cautionary tale of an MLM with property to sell. If you've ever been traveling down SR 16 through central Ohio, you may have seen the towering, basket shaped, i conic American novelty architecture that is the headquarters of The Longaberger Basket Company, a now defunct MLM with an enthusiastic cult following and deep Ohioan roots that trace all the way back to the Great Depression. Join us as we share the story of their beloved owner, and how everything started to go to hell in a handbasket. Plus a new UT Question of the Week!
