In this week's Fraud Friday, Laci is joined by Chris Gethard (The Special Without Brett Davis, Don't Think Twice) to discuss how a CEO created a Hype House style podcasting network that led to lawsuits, trash and fallout. Plus, someone stole more than 42,000 pounds of pistachios in California and that was just nuts. Stay schemin'! (Originally Released 07/12/2021)
