I hope your season is filled with the embodiment of HOLIDAY MAGIC, as we count down to 2022!Have you seen The Rise and Fall of LuLaRoe yet? I have, and I have some thoughts. Plus! I had the honor of chatting with Stephanie McNeal, the journalist whose 2020 expose of LuLaRoe, lead to the new documentary on Discovery+ about what it was like making the film, why she chose to make another LuLaRoe doc, and what she wanted to share that hadn't been shared before. Plus, we speak with Rise and Fall star, Heather Blevins and the creator of the infamous group Defective, Julie Dean, about the early days of exposing LuLaRoe, running a Facebook group full of 75k+ angry LuLaRoe victims and what they think about everything that's happened after a pair of black leggings ripped to shreds.Show NotesWatch The Rise and Fall of LuLaRoe now!
