This week discover the secrets behind Ashley Madison, the notorious website designed for married people seeking discreet affairs. Joined by our guest, Jenna, we peel back the layers of this controversial platform, starting with its provocative slogan, "Life is short, have an affair," and the infamous 2015 hack that exposed millions of users. Jenna shares her perspective on how men she knew used the site, and we debate whether it catered more to sugar babies or mutual infidelity. Plus, we unravel the marketing genius that propelled Ashley Madison into the limelight and why the Netflix documentary is a must-watch to understand its full impact. We then shift gears to explore the devastating fallout from the Ashley Madison hack. Hear the tragic tale of a priest whose exposure led to his suicide, and a couple who continue to live authentically despite the controversy. The conversation also highlights the CEO's surprising lack of personal repercussions amid an $11.2 million settlement and the dark web's role in leaking personal information. Jenna and I delve into the rise of Ashley Madison's scandalous practices, including the use of AI-generated photos and fake profiles, and the emotional toll on employees and victims alike.
