In this episode, Barbara and Demetra explore the intersection of Mormonism, crime, and multi-level marketing (MLM) schemes. They discuss the recent criminal cases involving Mormons, the psychological and social dynamics within the community, and the manipulative marketing tactics used by organizations like the LDS Church. The conversation delves into the ethics of tithing, the indoctrination of individuals within the faith, and the broader implications of these practices on personal choices and family dynamics.
