0:00 1:57:57

In today's episode, we welcome Sarma Melngailis, the subject of Netflix's heart-racing docuseries, “Bad Vegan: Fame. Fraud. Fugitives”.

Sarma was a Vegan restaurateur who fell for conman Anthony Strangis, causing her to lose her money, her business, and nearly everything.

Today she reveals the shocking true story of how she went from having it all while running NYC's Pure Food and Wine, to getting to the point where she couldn't pay her employees and became a fugitive.

She shares never-before-dicussed details of how Anthony Strangis, aka “Mr. Fox,” coerced her into fleeing and adopting new identities; ultimately leading to their arrest, and prison time.

Tune in to discover the astonishing tale of love, lies, loss, and deceit that will have you on the edge of your seat.
