Have you ever wondered how the term 'metrosexual' fell out of fashion? Today, we question whether the freedom to express a variety of masculinities without the need for labels has rendered such terms obsolete. Likewise, we ponder if descriptors like 'tomboy' are still used for young girls, or if we've moved on to accepting children for who they are without boxing them into categories. 

Then, we venture into the mysterious and often misunderstood world of Multi-Level Marketing (MLMs) and pyramid schemes. We reminisce about our personal run-ins with MLMs and share cautionary tales from friends and family. From farcical MLM parties to a bizarre incident involving a home birth, we've got stories that are sure to both entertain and enlighten you. We also delve into the wealth of documentaries that have shed light on these subjects and offer tips on how to spot potential scams. 

Finally, we recall some of the wildest MLM ideas we've come across, including selling bugs for terrariums! We also explore the often hilarious and sometimes unsettling realities of MLM parties and pyramid schemes through tales of Beauty Counter mishaps and the impact of MLMs on the Catholic Church. As we discuss these experiences, we're sure to have a good laugh and leave you with some food for thought. So buckle up and join us on this rollercoaster ride of the absurd, the hilarious, and the downright bizarre.
