Amway: The Cult Next Door W/Robert Fitzpatrick

Amway: The Cult Next Door W/Robert Fitzpatrick

Amway: In the world of multi-level marketing (MLM) one player stands head and shoulders above all others – Amway. In the 1950’s the founders created what they called “The Plan” – the product wasn’t the focus – the focus was the distributor – and it was brilliant. “The Plan” raked in billions for the company and they adopted a sophisticated game-plan by immersing themselves in “Americana” branding and becoming a major political donor. In the world of MLMs, they are the ones you overlook, because they choose to hide in plain sight, with stadium naming deals and members of Presidential cabinets. They are the cult next door. Author of “Ponzinomics,” Robert FitzPatrick is the leading expert on the history of MLM and he’ll share the origin story of Amway and “The Plan” they created that all the MLMs now follow. He’ll explain why it’s literally impossible to make a profit unless you’re in on the scam at the start, and why when you really look into the structure one thing becomes clear: MLMs are cults.

California Descending The Crime Explosion w Jim Cooper

California lawmaker Jim Cooper is the new sheriff of Sacramento County, California. For years in the state legislature, he has been the loudest voice on California’s descent into a place where criminal laws have been turned on their heads. Where once, those who found themselves assaulted and robbed were considered the victims, now, those doing the robbing and assaulting have become the “victims.” Cooper watched as a majority of his colleagues passed these laws over the years and he called them out on it every time. And now, California is exactly where he predicted it would be. He joined us during his busy sheriff’s campaign to discuss crime and law in California from his perspective as both a veteran deputy sheriff and a California lawmaker. He and Q talk about housing and homelessness, mental illness and crime, why crime in California is going to get worse before better, and who is to blame. behind it?
