Should the Family Vlogging World Change After Ruby Franke’s Crimes?

What happens when the line between parenting and profiteering gets blurred? Ruby Franke, once a family vlogging star on YouTube with the channel 8 Passengers, now faces allegations of disturbing behavior alongside her business partner, Jody Hildebrandt. But who was Ruby Franke before Jody entered the picture? And how did their relationship allegedly escalate into a tangled web of exploitation, control, and manipulation?

With the release of Shari Franke’s memoir, The House of My Mother: A Daughter’s Quest for Freedom, chilling new details emerge, shining a spotlight on the darker side of family vlogging. Is the industry fostering a culture of exploitation, or can it be done responsibly? The episode dives into the ethical gray areas, legal gaps, and personal accounts of those most affected. Are platforms like YouTube complicit, or does the responsibility ultimately rest with parents?

When does sharing your family life online cross the line into something harmful? And more importantly—who decides where that line is?
