    S02E30 - Queenpins Movie, Is It A Scam ? W/Anna Callegari

    Caitlin and actress Anna Callegari watched the movie Queenpins and discovered how easy it is to create a coupon conglomerate in your own backyard! Unfortunately this movie was neither a comedy or documentary, and it did not have enough Kirby Howell-Baptiste for both of them. But hey, Bebe Rexha is a hacker in super uncomfortable pants, so if she can do it anyone can! Also is couponing a scam, or is it only a problem after you begin to launder money through weapon sales? Who’s to say? So grab your smoothie, slam it on the table, and get ready to hear about this ridiculous movie they watch so you don’t have to!  Plus hear exclusive episodes on our Patreon.  RESOURCES:  Queenpins http://www.annaecallegari.com  Dinour Callegari Team Anna’s Triumph Page @bananascalamari @annasellsbrooklyn @caitybrodnick  @scamwowpodcast Scamwowpodcast.com Get those couch DISCOUNTS!!! https://allform.com/lp/scamwow/podcasts  DISCLAIMER: We are comedians and this is satire.

    RERUN! Oh No? More like, Au Pair!

    She’s a talent scout, devoted babysitter, and sometimes impersonates Florida judges: It’s Australian con artist Samantha Azzopardi. Our special guest this week, comedian Ariel Elias, unpacks the many scams and uncomfortably basic aliases of Azzopardi. Azzopardi traveled around the globe conning unsuspecting families, young girls, and even entire police stations. Is she schizophrenic, is she creative, or is she just craving attention à la Caroline Calloway? Ariel Elias is a nationally touring standup and was recently praised by the New York Times for having a perfect joke. It’s a fun one!
