S5 | Powder Keg | Ep 3: The Asshole Of The World

We track down families who lost their homes in 'Chris the Kiwi’ Ashenden’s property dealings. And what happens next is what Powder Keg, the podcast, is all about – Ashenden, his unorthodox billion-dollar business and his magical mystery powder. 

All we know is that his company AG1 is headquartered at an address in Carson City, Nevada. If it comes to the crunch and he doesn’t front, we’ll need to go there to talk with the company’s founder.

What we didn’t know is the story of criminal offending that will emerge – a story that Chris the Kiwi didn’t want told.
