Daycare Dollars & SmackDown Schemes w/ Hannah Pilkes

CONgregation, we're back this week with the game: Is It a Scam, a Scheme, or the Real Thing?

In today’s episode, Laci is joined by comedian and actress Hannah Pilkes (Leanne, The Woodsman) to jump into the case of Brooklyn daycare director Murielle Misczak, who stole nearly $3 million in tuition money, spending it on a variety of things, including (most notably) pro wrestling tickets. Plus, in Scammer of the Week, we bring you the KitKat Heist. Stay schemin’!

CON-gregation, catch Scam Goddess LIVE in a city near you.
