67: Turning Robocalls Into Cash with Chris Roberts

If you’ve ever felt frustrated by scam texts, robocalls, or shady debt collectors, this episode is going to blow your mind (in the best way).

I’m joined by Chris Roberts, a nationally recognized class action attorney who helps everyday consumers fight back (and sometimes get paid in the process). Chris has taken on predatory companies of all kinds, from illegal telemarketers to deceptive lenders, and he’s here to share how you can protect yourself using little-known consumer laws.

In this conversation, we dive into:

• Why one robocall could be worth up to $500, and what to do if you get dozens
• What actually works to stop spam calls and texts (hint: it’s not complaining to the FTC)
• The legal mistake businesses make with SMS marketing that could cost them big
• Chris’s personal journey from representing debt collectors to holding them accountable

This one is packed with powerful, actionable info — especially if you’re someone who wants to be an empowered consumer and an ethical business owner.

Chris was generous, sharp, and fascinating to talk to. I think you’re going to walk away from this one with a whole new way of looking at those “annoying” calls and what they could really mean.
