Big Crime Energy w/ Jordan Carlos (Re-Release)

Scam Goddess

This week, Jordan Carlos joins us to discuss how, during the 1970s, the FBI hired Mel Weinberg, a career con man, to tackle some of Washington’s biggest politicians. This story inspired the movie American Hustle! Laci and Jordan dive into growing up in Dallas near the same churches, driving a Ford, and the con of writing ad commercials. Plus, Late Night Talk Show Host John Oliver is scamming the scammers…Congress, that is. Stay schemin’!

CON-gregation, make sure to catch Laci's new TV Show Scam Goddess, now on Freeform and Hulu!
