    Fascinating! My mum did this for a while. It was so big in Poland back in the day. She left after having realised she invested more than she earned:) They were selling the dream, dr Kirk is right.

    I watch a lot of MLM content because I find it so fascinating how they operate and how people saddly get wrapped up in those systems and they are not bed people they just really get brainwashed to believe this is their gateway to sucess and the brainwashing that goes on and the hyper positive thinking and shaming of people for not working hard enough and that is why they are not maling any progess and so on, it is not difficult to picture how it feels like an abusive relationship people just don’t see and think they have no other hope outside of it

    What Amway tells you: "you can actually stop working and retire early!"
    The truth: you never stop working in an MLM. You are always on, always paying attention to it, if you leave it alone you lose money and people. You never stop MLM-ing.

    I would love to see y'all cover this topic again given the incredible surge of popularity and then failures that MLMs saw during the pandemic.

    Thank you Dr Honda for not only not villainizing visual effects but praising them on planet of the apes. It seems to be a trend to completely crap on all vfx lately. It can hurt when you pour your heart and soul and a huge amount of overtime into a project and people say "it's ruined by CGI" or worse: the director pretends there were no VFX

    So excited for this one. I grew up with grandparents high up in Amway being drug around to conventions. It was…interesting…😂
