What is a fake guru and how does one take them down? - CoffeeZilla from YouTube

This one is a personal interest one for me. I found the CoffeeZilla Youtube Channel through a friend of mine and I immediately wanted to interview the guy who does it. In this channel, he goes after internet-enabled fake gurus and picks apart their schemes and shows people how they create fake value and sell that value and take people's money. It is so elegant and I highly recommend this episode if you want to understand how not to be a fool. Follow CoffeeZilla here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCFQMnBA3CS502aghlcr0_aw
