In this episode, we unravel the story of Jared Fogle — the man who became famous for losing weight with Subway sandwiches, turned himself into a household name, and then revealed a darkness that hid in plain sight for years. We trace Jared’s early obsession with food and gaming, his rapid rise as an accidental fast-food hero, the carefully crafted image that made him millions, and the shocking crimes he committed while posing as a champion of healthy kids. From ignored warnings and corporate denial to the sick partnership that enabled his worst impulses, this episode exposes the price of believing an easy lie when it’s sold with a smile. The tale of Subway Jared isn’t just about a sandwich — it’s a reminder that trust, when given too freely, can feed monsters hiding in daylight.
