Scam Goddess

Earwolf & Laci Mosley

Welcome to the Con-gregation, a place where we celebrate the audacity, absurdity, and sheer creativity found in the world of fraud. Hosted by the sharp-witted Laci Mosley, this podcast is your go-to destination for unpacking the wildest robberies, rackets, and elaborate schemes that have defined both human history and our modern, digital-first landscape. Each episode, Laci sits down with a rotating lineup of hilarious guests—from comedy legends to television personalities—to determine one thing: Is it a scam, a scheme, or a legitimate hustle? Whether it is breaking down high-stakes corporate malfeasance and multi-million dollar banking betrayals or dissecting the everyday grievances of modern consumer culture, like predatory towing, streaming service greed, and the dubious claims of celebrity skincare lines, no corner of our society is safe from scrutiny. Beyond the deep dives into infamous cases, you will hear listener-submitted stories that reveal just how often we encounter deception in our daily lives. The show masterfully balances true-crime intrigue with a comedic perspective that avoids the darkness of traditional investigative programs. Instead, it offers a space to laugh at the ridiculous lengths people go to for profit and fame. If you are looking for a show that teaches you how to spot a red flag while laughing at the absolute audacity of the human spirit, join the conversation every week. Stay schemin'!

Scamfluencers

Audible

Welcome to the world of Scamfluencers, where we pull back the curtain on the most audacious grifters, charlatans, and power-hungry manipulators of our time. From the flashy tech billionaires who built empires on lies to celebrities who weaponized their status for personal gain, this podcast serves as a deep dive into the psychology of the con. We examine how charismatic figures—whether they are posing as innovative neurosurgeons, international software pioneers, or visionary startup founders—leverage their charm to exploit those around them and bend reality to suit their own agendas. Every episode takes you inside the messy, often stranger-than-fiction stories of people who prioritized market hype, fame, and wealth over ethics. We break down the playbooks used by these individuals to deceive their peers, bully whistleblowers, and maintain elaborate facades that frequently hide a crumbling house of cards. Beyond just the facts of their crimes, we explore the human cost of their ambition and the persistent, often grueling journeys of the victims seeking justice. Whether we are revisiting legendary sports scandals or dissecting high-stakes financial heists, Scamfluencers offers a critical, gripping look at the dangerous intersection of greed and influence. It is a cautionary tale about the power of the narrative, the fragility of trust, and the inevitable fallout when the truth finally catches up to the lie.
