Invasion of the Hunbots: Their Tactics, and How You Can Politely Decline Their Offers
08/01/18 • 92 min
Two days late, but we are here! We believe this is a keynote episode for season 2 - everyone who has been approached by a "hunbot" (which we define in the episode for those new to the movement) needs to have a few responses in their arsenal of replies so no one feels obligated to engage in their sales pitches. Sasha and Katie discuss some of the more common manipulative approaches MLM reps may use to guilt you into a sale or joining their team, but they also ensure that the responses they suggest you can use are RESPECTFUL to the rep. It should never be our intention to bully them or go out of our way to hurt them. Most of them are victims of the MLM structure themselves.

Hi diddly ho, anti-MLMerinos! We're back with SEASON TWO! Come listen to our podcast's "glow up" which includes... BETTER AUDIO!! To kick off our new beginning, Sasha and Katie got to binge watch a lot of television to bring you this special, educational episode explaining MLM satire in comedic sitcoms or black comedy movies. We will bring you some classic, nostalgic clips that will make you laugh out loud while still focusing on how utterly ridiculous multi-level-marketing is.
Bonuses: Sasha and Katie (yet again) promote the Target Wine Cube without sponsorship, Sasha obsesses over the first 8 seasons of "The Simpsons" (the best episodes) several times throughout the episode, and a little tribute to Boomer, the 20 lb, healthy, tabby cat who exposed the Young Living Cancun Clinic as a scam through a simple blood test, and we end with a lil' Mel Brooks music number. If you're a Simpsons fan, I recommend listening to the very end of the episode past the outro music.

Next Episode
A Decade in Scamway, er, Amway
On this week's episode, Sasha and Katie sit down with very busy mother Allison Briner Kraft, as she shares the harrowing details about the 10 years she spent in Amway. Based on her account, Amway is, without a doubt, a cult that is difficult to break away from. As one of the oldest MLMs, the company has fine-tuned itself to be one of the most predatory of its kind in the network marketing industry.
