S5 | Powder Keg | Ep 11: The Final Play In Playa Del Carmen
Episode 11
Sunday, 22 December, 2024
We’ve interviewed dozens of people about their experiences with ‘Chris the Kiwi’ Ashenden, his billion-dollar company, and his market-leading AG1. They have questions stemming from his history of criminal dishonesty, from the job losses as he quietly cut production costs, and from his scientific claims today that stretch credibility. To find him, we’ve come all the way across the Pacific, from NZ to Chilé to Colombia…and now we discover Chris has flown out to Mexico. This is the final episode of our podcast, Powder Keg – and we’re going to do it. We’re flying into a blistering Mexico heatwave, and a scorching encounter with Chris on the streets of Playa del Carmen. Because, as we discover, Chris won’t be happy to see us.Each episode is available first to subscribers to DELVE+.
