Alexander Pärleros is the 39-year-old who left the sales industry to instead invest wholeheartedly in the “Framgångspodden” which a few years ago topped the lists of the country’s most listened to podcasts. The podcast has today released 867 episodes and the guests have been everything from doctors, researchers, influencers and elite athletes.

But the career has not only flowed without obstacles. Pärleros has faced a lot of criticism from, among other things, other profiles such as Alexander Schulman and Sigge Eklund. Even Henrik Schyffert has been out swinging many times when it comes to Alexander.
Alexander was also met with something of a storm of rage during the corona pandemic after inviting a vaccine opponent to the podcast. In the hour-and-22-minute episode, titled “The Censored Pandemic,” he interviewed Dr. Katarina Gospic and during the interview she was very skeptical about the corona vaccine.

In another interview with the singer John Lundvik Alexander said the n-word several times, which caused many to react and Pärleros had to issue an apology.

Today, Alexander lives with his wife Ida Warg and the couple’s two children in sunny Marbella. And according to Alexander, the family has no plans to move back.
In 2023, Ida Warg sold her empire Ida Warg Beauty to beauty giant Lumene. At the time, Ida Warg Beauty had a turnover of SEK 136 million and a profit of SEK 17.2 million
Today, Alexander and Ida are active in a number of different companies. Among others, Learnby AB, which has assets of 75 million.

Recently, Pärleros stood up in an interview in The Swedish Daily where he talks about life today but where he also looks back on the slightly darker periods in life.
Alexander has previously told that he was placed in a foster home as a youngster and that money was something he had to fight to get or take. In SvD, he tells, among other things, that he often stole food to have something to eat.
During the same period, he was groomed by a fashion photographer, who in exchange for money took increasingly close-up pictures of the teenage Alexander.

– The last time I was there, he photographed me smeared in ash, tied with ropes and chains and a knife in front of me. I ended up having nightmares about him putting me on, he says.
– The memories make me feel closest to the true crime interviews I do with people who have been through terrible, horrible things. We are related. But that stuff – it’s about challenging myself. If willing, he concludes.
