- 1:30Speaker 1: So I was like entertained. And then I was like,
- 1:31Speaker 1: wait a minute, this is an ad. And then for
- 1:33Speaker 1: a moment I was scammed by Mark Zuckerberg. Cause I
- 1:35Speaker 1: was like, I'm just watching this. Like I thought it
- 1:37Speaker 1: was content. And I was like, Oh, they sell me pants.
- 1:40Speaker 2: Yeah. Yes, they knew who to choose when it comes
- 1:46Speaker 2: to trying to tap into something different. Oh, yeah.
- 1:49Speaker 1: Yeah, they did a good job because I was like,
- 1:51Speaker 1: next thing I knew I was laughing and my hand
- 1:53Speaker 1: was on my credit card and I was like, how
- 1:55Speaker 1: did this get in my hand?
- 1:56Speaker 2: Girl, okay, but did you swipe though?
- 1:59Speaker 1: Listen, had to. You know, listen, anything Rihanna's out here hawking,
- 2:03Speaker 1: I'ma get, okay? She may not give us an album
- 2:05Speaker 1: right now, but I will listen to these lip glosses.
- 2:07Speaker 2: Look, and that's fine. The lip glosses, the skin, the lingerie, girl,
- 2:11Speaker 2: you could get everything but the album right about now,
- 2:14Speaker 2: but she making her coins, okay?
- 2:15Speaker 1: Right, right. I feel like if you put on all
- 2:17Speaker 1: her products at once, you can hear the music. Maybe.
- 2:23Speaker 2: You know what? I think in one of the disclaimers,
- 2:25Speaker 2: it did say music included upon purchase of every item. So, hey.
- 2:30Speaker 1: Hey, you know what? I love Rihanna. She's a great,
- 2:33Speaker 1: I don't know if she's a scammer, but she's a queen.
- 2:36Speaker 1: So wait, I have to ask you, Lala, do you
- 2:38Speaker 1: have a relationship with scams? Have you ever been scammed?
- 2:41Speaker 1: Or have you ever run a scam that you can
- 2:43Speaker 1: talk about without the statute of limitations? You know?
- 2:48Speaker 2: Girl, y'all trying to give me a rest of the
- 2:50Speaker 2: day and tell me that was a part of the show. Okay,
- 2:53Speaker 2: so I've never scammed anybody, but I've seen people scam.
- 2:58Speaker 2: And something that I did do back in the day
- 3:00Speaker 2: when I was working at Walgreens, I knew the scammers
- 3:04Speaker 2: was coming in doing the credit card scams and stuff.
- 3:07Speaker 2: So I would tell them, I'd be like, I'll let
- 3:10Speaker 2: you swipe as many cards as you want to. Just
- 3:13Speaker 2: leave me a gift card under the tire of that
- 3:16Speaker 2: white Chevy Malibu outside. And we'll be good to go.
- 3:21Speaker 2: Because Walgreens wasn't paying me enough. I was overworked and underpaid.
- 3:26Speaker 2: So When the scammers came in, I'd be like, I
- 3:29Speaker 2: know what you're doing. And for a small fee on
- 3:32Speaker 2: a gift card, I'll let it ride. So that's the
- 3:35Speaker 2: closest I ever got to scamming. But I don't think
- 3:38Speaker 2: that was scamming. I think that was genius.
- 3:40Speaker 1: That was genius. And that's what we call a middleman.
- 3:43Speaker 2: Okay. Like, yes, indeed. Yeah.
- 3:46Speaker 1: Like, look, I won't call the cops as long as
- 3:49Speaker 1: you leave it and not leave it under the tire.
- 3:51Speaker 1: Very slick. Very like, who could know?
- 3:54Speaker 2: Don't leave it on camera. Don't pass me nothing. You
- 3:57Speaker 2: doing too much. You making a block hot. Okay. Especially
- 4:00Speaker 2: at the end of the night when my managers ask
- 4:02Speaker 2: the question, it's like, I don't know. Their money was insured.
- 4:06Speaker 2: Once I learned that their money was insured, I was like, oh, bye.
- 4:11Speaker 2: Good day.
- 4:11Speaker 1: They be scamming us.
- 4:14Speaker 3: Right.
- 4:14Speaker 1: I mean, every corporation is like squeezing the blood from
- 4:18Speaker 1: a stone when it comes for the workers. And then
- 4:20Speaker 1: they're turning in record profits every single year. That's how
- 4:23Speaker 1: they continue to make money. Like you get more investors.
- 4:26Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 4:27Speaker 1: And then the little man gets squeezed dry. So you
- 4:30Speaker 1: did the right thing. I don't think I approve of this.
- 4:33Speaker 1: Thank you.
- 4:34Speaker 3: You didn't do any crime.
- 4:36Speaker 1: You were adjacent to crime. You were in the cul-de-sac
- 4:38Speaker 1: of the crime. You know what I mean?
- 4:42Speaker 3: That's perfectly fine.
- 4:44Speaker 1: Okay, well, we have a listener letter from someone. Wait, Lala,
- 4:48Speaker 1: I need you to give me a fake name. Like,
- 4:49Speaker 1: just any name.
- 4:51Speaker 2: Okay. We could go with Slim Thickiana.
- 4:58Speaker 1: Slim Thickiana. Okay, Slim Thickiana says, Hi, Lacey. I was
- 5:04Speaker 1: snooping on Nextdoor, which Nextdoor is that app for, like,
- 5:07Speaker 1: nosy neighbors, mostly white people, to keep tabs on the
- 5:10Speaker 1: new browns.
- 5:10Speaker 2: From the neighborhood.
- 5:11Speaker 3: Ah!
- 5:12Speaker 2: That's funny. Okay.
- 5:14Speaker 1: Right. That's a real thing.
- 5:16Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 5:16Speaker 1: Next door. It's like a neighborhood app. You get on
- 5:18Speaker 1: there for the tea. So like if the cops come,
- 5:21Speaker 1: then you go on next door and they'll be like, oh,
- 5:22Speaker 1: the cops came because so-and-so stole.
- 5:26Speaker 2: Oh, I need to get on there.
- 5:27Speaker 1: It's messy. It's messy. There's probably one for your neighborhood too.
- 5:30Speaker 1: It's really big in LA.
- 5:32Speaker 2: Okay, I'm going to check it out.
- 5:34Speaker 1: So Slim Thickiana says, I was snooping on Nextdoor and
- 5:38Speaker 1: I found this really interesting con. The person posting it
- 5:41Speaker 1: was the victim. I'll paraphrase it for you. Thank you,
- 5:44Speaker 1: Slim Thickiana, because you know we don't like no long emails.
- 5:47Speaker 1: So this person bought a house and while they were
- 5:51Speaker 1: in closing process, a couple and their dog broke into
- 5:54Speaker 1: the house through the back door and are now refusing
- 5:58Speaker 1: to leave. The new homeowners called the cops and this
- 6:01Speaker 1: couple gave some sob story about getting scammed into a
- 6:04Speaker 1: fake lease and how their dog has cancer. Damn, they
- 6:09Speaker 1: gave the dog cancer too. They said, look, we got
- 6:12Speaker 1: scammed into moving in here.
- 6:13Speaker 2: And you know it's going to work. You know it's
- 6:15Speaker 2: going to work because you know People love their dogs.
- 6:18Speaker 1: Listen, and police, listen, you better off saying your dog
- 6:21Speaker 1: have cancer than being black.
- 6:23Speaker 2: Okay! I wasn't even going to say nothing, but you did!
- 6:28Speaker 1: Oh, you are fully welcome to say it on this podcast.
- 6:31Speaker 1: Everybody knows. Also, please stop leaving comments on my podcast
- 6:35Speaker 1: talking about you as a Trump supporter and you feel
- 6:36Speaker 1: dejected listening to this show. I don't make this show
- 6:39Speaker 1: for Trump supporters. OK, now, if you want to listen
- 6:42Speaker 1: and cringe every now and then, that's on you. But
- 6:45Speaker 1: y'all know I'm not giving racist joy anyways.
- 6:51Speaker 2: If they support Trump, they support racism. And I'm surprised
- 6:54Speaker 2: that means that they're supporting you. That's awkward. But some,
- 6:57Speaker 2: I don't know, I'll be feeling like people do their
- 6:59Speaker 2: research all the way. But who am I? I'm not
- 7:01Speaker 2: into politics.
- 7:02Speaker 3: No way.
- 7:04Speaker 1: Not that laugh. I can't. I wish you guys could
- 7:05Speaker 1: see Lala. Her face is so expressive. Yeah, no, I mean,
- 7:09Speaker 1: we get into it every now and then, but that's
- 7:11Speaker 1: not really what the show is about. But I hate
- 7:13Speaker 1: when people leave me reviews like, you know, I wish
- 7:15Speaker 1: you'd just lay off the politics. It's like, I wish
- 7:18Speaker 1: that politics were like, for you where you know they
- 7:21Speaker 1: don't really matter but you know niggas is getting killed
- 7:23Speaker 1: so guess what I gotta get involved in politics I
- 7:26Speaker 1: gotta march my feet hurt you know yeah Freedom is exhausting, okay?
- 7:31Speaker 1: Nobody said... When I look at all the pictures, they
- 7:34Speaker 1: look cute in the pictures, though, right? Like, MLK was
- 7:36Speaker 1: in the fly suits. Okay, there were some dogs and
- 7:39Speaker 1: some hoses, but for the most part, it looked cute.
- 7:41Speaker 1: First of all, what picture.
- 7:42Speaker 2: The one picture that you referring to that I think
- 7:45Speaker 2: that you saying look cute was MLK at the podium, child,
- 7:49Speaker 2: and him raising his hand with all the millions of
- 7:51Speaker 2: people right there, the million man mark. That's the only... cute,
- 7:55Speaker 2: glorified picture that I see. The rest of them, child,
- 7:58Speaker 2: you see hoses. It's all in black and white. Anything
- 8:01Speaker 2: in black and white just give me a struggle anyways, okay?
- 8:05Speaker 2: It was just all bad.
- 8:06Speaker 1: That's the struggle filter. You are absolutely right. But I
- 8:09Speaker 1: didn't realize until I had to get my black ass
- 8:11Speaker 1: out there and start marching this shit. I was like,
- 8:13Speaker 1: oh my God, this is exhausting.
- 8:15Speaker 2: Yes, indeed.
- 8:16Speaker 3: Yes, indeed.
- 8:17Speaker 2: Why you think Auntie Rosa wasn't trying to move to
- 8:19Speaker 2: the back? Her feet was hurting already.
- 8:22Speaker 1: Auntie Rosa had been in the struggle at that point.
- 8:24Speaker 1: She was like, no, you don't understand. We just got
- 8:26Speaker 1: off of March. I'm sitting here. Yes.
- 8:29Speaker 2: I'm sitting right here. I ain't going nowhere. Y'all going
- 8:31Speaker 2: to take me to jail? Cool. Just pick me up. Bye.
- 8:34Speaker 1: Right. Can y'all lift me off the bus? Thank you
- 8:36Speaker 1: so much.
- 8:36Speaker 2: That's it.
- 8:38Speaker 1: So this couple scammed the police saying that, oh, you know, hey,
- 8:42Speaker 1: we got tricked into moving into this place. And also
- 8:44Speaker 1: Scruffy got the cancer. So, you know, help us out.
- 8:48Speaker 1: So since they're new owners and haven't moved in yet,
- 8:51Speaker 1: the couple that's on Nextdoor, The cops are saying that
- 8:54Speaker 1: they should settle this in civil court, which could take months.
- 8:58Speaker 1: Even with proof of purchase by the owners, the squatters
- 9:01Speaker 1: are protected by tenants' rights with the fake lease papers.
- 9:05Speaker 1: The cops apparently didn't even check to verify the lease
- 9:08Speaker 1: papers at all. That's how you know these people weren't Black,
- 9:12Speaker 1: because if they were, they would have not only verified.
- 9:14Speaker 2: They would have looked it up and down with a
- 9:16Speaker 2: magnifying glass, a zoom lens from the iPhone 13... Everything.
- 9:22Speaker 1: Right. I feel like they would have verified the papers
- 9:24Speaker 1: by pulling out their nightsticks and beating on them. I
- 9:26Speaker 1: feel like they would have never even read the papers.
- 9:29Speaker 2: Why are you playing? For real. For real. And then
- 9:32Speaker 2: ask questions later. Right.
- 9:35Speaker 1: Like, oh, they had papers? Damn. We did not even ask. Honestly. Right.
- 9:39Speaker 1: We came in and didn't have a conversation at all. Yes.
- 9:42Speaker 1: So this lovely Caucasian couple.
- 9:44Speaker 2: Definitely a Caucasian issue.
- 9:45Speaker 1: I love a Caucasian con, though. Listen, if I was white,
- 9:48Speaker 1: I would be doing Caucasian cons all the time. I
- 9:51Speaker 1: would use my alabaster and really just milk it. Milk
- 9:55Speaker 1: it dry. You know what I mean?
- 9:57Speaker 2: Your alabaster.
- 9:58Speaker 1: Your alabaster.
- 10:01Speaker 2: Oh my god.
- 10:03Speaker 1: Listen if you got it what kind.
- 10:04Speaker 2: Of show do they got me on oh my god
- 10:12Speaker 2: to all the white people out there listening Y'all are lit.
- 10:16Speaker 2: And I know that y'all are not racist because for them,
- 10:21Speaker 2: I'm weak. I am weak. There's a whole bunch of
- 10:26Speaker 2: white people who love when black people keep it real
- 10:29Speaker 2: and they love it because they're allies. So shout out
- 10:32Speaker 2: to y'all. Y'all lit. Right.
- 10:34Speaker 1: They are lit. And look, we're not saying nothing bad
- 10:36Speaker 1: about white folks. I'm just saying there's privileges that I
- 10:38Speaker 1: don't have. And if I had them, I would be
- 10:40Speaker 1: riding them till the wheels fell off every single day. Okay, period.
- 10:44Speaker 2: Period.
- 10:45Speaker 1: So the cops said, y'all got to go settle this
- 10:49Speaker 1: in civil court. The homeowners have tried contacting the squatters directly.
- 10:53Speaker 1: They've looped in their realtor and even hired an attorney.
- 10:55Speaker 1: They've tried shutting off the utilities, but the squatter seems
- 10:58Speaker 1: to know the loopholes to get their shit turned back on.
- 11:01Speaker 1: That's literally what this says in the email. The homeowners
- 11:05Speaker 1: even tried getting the squatters car towed. They have multiple
- 11:09Speaker 1: records of eviction over the last few years, and they've
- 11:11Speaker 1: had multiple break-in disputes with other realtors in the area.
- 11:15Speaker 1: So this isn't their first rodeo for sure. They know
- 11:17Speaker 1: what they're doing. Now it's just even easier with COVID
- 11:20Speaker 1: eviction regulations. Shit's fucked. Didn't even realize it was possible
- 11:24Speaker 1: for someone to steal your house like that. Damn.
- 11:28Speaker 2: That's insane. It sounds like they be living rent free
- 11:33Speaker 2: everywhere that they go. And they done did it so
- 11:35Speaker 2: much that they literally built up a repertoire of tricks
- 11:38Speaker 2: to not get kicked out of houses that they're not
- 11:41Speaker 2: paying for. Absolutely.
- 11:43Speaker 1: And here's the thing, though. I know a lot of
- 11:44Speaker 1: people hear this and be like, see, this is why
- 11:47Speaker 1: we need to change the renter's laws and people are
- 11:49Speaker 1: taking advantage. However, you have to think about. the situation
- 11:53Speaker 1: that these scammers are in too. Like if you're in
- 11:56Speaker 1: a situation where you were willing to move whenever you
- 11:59Speaker 1: get run out of a house that you broke into
- 12:01Speaker 1: and squatted in with no furniture and possibly no utilities,
- 12:04Speaker 1: you're probably in a bad spot financially.
- 12:05Speaker 2: Uh, you know, a lot of scammers aren't in a
- 12:11Speaker 2: bad spot financially. A lot of them are just greedy.
- 12:14Speaker 2: Because a lot of them be scamming their way to
- 12:17Speaker 2: riches and then just get used to not having to
- 12:20Speaker 2: pay for stuff and don't want to go legal because
- 12:22Speaker 2: it's easier to make quick money or to save money.
- 12:25Speaker 2: So these people possibly could have a whole business or
- 12:29Speaker 2: could possibly be saying they out there homeless. You done
- 12:32Speaker 2: seen it. If they doing this, trust and believe they
- 12:34Speaker 2: doing something else because they paying the bills at the house.
- 12:38Speaker 1: Right. But do you think though, I think when you
- 12:41Speaker 1: talk about the credit card scammers earlier at Walgreens, I
- 12:43Speaker 1: feel like those people might be scamming to excess and
- 12:47Speaker 1: using that to go buy iconography like Gucci, Hermes, whatever.
- 12:51Speaker 1: But I feel like if I was a scammer, at
- 12:53Speaker 1: least just as a human being, I don't want to
- 12:55Speaker 1: move every three months or whenever the law comes and
- 12:59Speaker 1: forces me to scoot out. I don't want to potentially
- 13:01Speaker 1: be homeless every other day. I feel like that's the
- 13:05Speaker 1: place where I wouldn't be trying to scam.
- 13:09Speaker 2: People be different, sis. People be different. The people who
- 13:15Speaker 2: squatting in these houses probably like, I would never go
- 13:17Speaker 2: into a store and swipe somebody else's credit card, but
- 13:21Speaker 2: they dang sure going squatting in somebody else's house. There's
- 13:24Speaker 2: different types of scammers.
- 13:26Speaker 3: It just depends on your girlfriend.
- 13:27Speaker 2: That's true.
- 13:28Speaker 1: We talk about a lot of different scammers. I don't know.
- 13:30Speaker 1: I just tend to feel for the scammers, especially in
- 13:32Speaker 1: situations like this, because I just don't know I guess me,
- 13:35Speaker 1: I need to know where my house at every day.
- 13:37Speaker 1: I don't want to come back to my house and
- 13:38Speaker 1: they're like, nah.
- 13:42Speaker 2: But see, they done found the loopholes. They probably have
- 13:45Speaker 2: to give them a notice of 12 days. Look, we're
- 13:50Speaker 2: about to go ahead and take you out. They done
- 13:52Speaker 2: did this multiple times. And now at this point, it's like, oh,
- 13:56Speaker 2: we'll never have to pay rent again. Let's put that
- 13:59Speaker 2: money into... Mind you, they said they tried to get
- 14:01Speaker 2: their car towed. Girl, they got a car towed. Okay.
- 14:05Speaker 2: They got a car.
- 14:06Speaker 1: But people be living in their cars though and be homeless.
- 14:08Speaker 2: But they're not. They're not. They live in their other
- 14:12Speaker 2: person's house.
- 14:13Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 14:13Speaker 2: So these people, they done figured it out. They just
- 14:16Speaker 2: living rent free, but they putting their money on stuff
- 14:18Speaker 2: that they think is more important.
- 14:20Speaker 1: Look, Lala is a hardworking woman and I can tell
- 14:23Speaker 1: right now she is not a scam empathizer. I am
- 14:26Speaker 1: a scam empathizer, but I appreciate this contrast because we
- 14:29Speaker 1: need somebody to come on and have the contrast because
- 14:32Speaker 1: everybody usually just lets me bully them into liking scams.
- 14:35Speaker 1: So I love this.
- 14:36Speaker 2: Girl.
- 14:36Speaker 1: So much.
- 14:37Speaker 2: I'm not going to lie. This hustle that they got
- 14:40Speaker 2: going on, at this point, I'm like, dang, let me
- 14:45Speaker 2: go find some loopholes. Prime example, right? There's these... My
- 14:50Speaker 2: boyfriend was working at Google one time, and he was like,
- 14:54Speaker 2: there is a homeless guy who would sue Google. He
- 14:58Speaker 2: sued Google and won millions of dollars, and he's still
- 15:01Speaker 2: living homeless. But now he advocates for the other homeless
- 15:04Speaker 2: people out there. He was super intelligent. He just basically
- 15:08Speaker 2: knew all the loopholes to everything. And he sued multiple companies,
- 15:12Speaker 2: and he's a multimillionaire off of winning... you know, lawsuits
- 15:17Speaker 2: against these huge companies. So I say that to say,
- 15:21Speaker 2: some people just enjoy doing what the hell they do.
- 15:24Speaker 2: They learn it. And it's like, well, Hey, you know,
- 15:27Speaker 2: and he literally still be living homeless. Now. Hell yes. Yes.
- 15:35Speaker 2: I need to find.
- 15:36Speaker 1: Out who this man is, but he's helping people. That's great. Yeah. Yeah.
- 15:42Speaker 2: He'd be advocating for the homeless people. out there on
- 15:47Speaker 2: Google's grounds now let's be clear here's the thing he
- 15:49Speaker 2: may just have a house obviously he's multi but he
- 15:55Speaker 2: still be living homeless every now and again and his
- 15:59Speaker 2: tent is average Wow.
- 16:01Speaker 1: So he doesn't even have the nice... See, I will
- 16:04Speaker 1: say though, for the most part, I feel like people
- 16:07Speaker 1: who are unhoused are doing it because they don't have
- 16:09Speaker 1: any other choice. I'm not going to say there aren't
- 16:11Speaker 1: any outliers, for sure. I'm not going to say these
- 16:14Speaker 1: people squatting may not have created a lifestyle of squatting. Absolutely. Also,
- 16:19Speaker 1: I have to say though, whoever the victim is on
- 16:21Speaker 1: next door, this person is not bad about it because
- 16:24Speaker 1: I'm currently looking to maybe buy a house. And if
- 16:27Speaker 1: I bought a house and somebody was living in that
- 16:30Speaker 1: joint when I pulled up, best believe I'm calling my
- 16:33Speaker 1: whole family. We will be showing up with bats. We
- 16:35Speaker 1: will be showing up with whatever we have to, to
- 16:37Speaker 1: run you out of the house. We're not going to
- 16:39Speaker 1: do this in court.
- 16:40Speaker 2: But my question is, did they move in after they
- 16:42Speaker 2: gave them a tour of the house or what?
- 16:45Speaker 1: So they purchased the house and then the squatters. So
- 16:49Speaker 1: basically there was, you know how you'll see a for
- 16:51Speaker 1: sale sign and then they'll put sold over at some
- 16:54Speaker 1: realty companies to try to flex. So then they see
- 16:57Speaker 1: the soul sign, but nobody's moved in yet, right? So
- 17:00Speaker 1: they break in through the back door and then they
- 17:02Speaker 1: were like, great, we live here now.
- 17:04Speaker 2: Oh my God. Yeah, this is different. Did they say
- 17:08Speaker 2: what city and state they in? Because it sounds like Florida.
- 17:11Speaker 1: It really does sound like some Florida shit. I do
- 17:14Speaker 1: not know. It does not specify. Sometimes people leave stuff
- 17:16Speaker 1: like that out because they don't want to get caught up.
- 17:18Speaker 1: But it doesn't specify what state. But a lot of
- 17:21Speaker 1: states have these squatters rights. And especially in California, we
- 17:24Speaker 1: have strong squatters rights.
- 17:26Speaker 2: I was about to say, yes, indeed. Yes, indeed. I
- 17:31Speaker 2: wouldn't be surprised if it was here, too. Right.
- 17:34Speaker 3: You're right.
- 17:35Speaker 1: But there's so many slumlords that we need squatters, right?
- 17:38Speaker 1: So there's only going to be a few people like
- 17:40Speaker 1: this who try to get over. For the most part,
- 17:42Speaker 1: it's people living right. However, if you do this shit
- 17:45Speaker 1: to me, I will take you to court. And by court,
- 17:48Speaker 1: I'm talking about my bat. My bat is named Court.
- 17:52Speaker 2: See? And then they're going to come up in there
- 17:54Speaker 2: because they used to scamming already with their neck brace,
- 17:57Speaker 2: their cast, their wheelchair, all that extra stuff. And say,
- 18:00Speaker 2: she beat me. She tore me up.
- 18:05Speaker 1: Why you sound like the color purple?
- 18:07Speaker 2: That's what I was going for.
- 18:09Speaker 1: Good.
- 18:09Speaker 2: I'm glad you caught the reference. Yes.
- 18:13Speaker 1: They're going to roll in on a medical gurney with
- 18:15Speaker 1: an IV.
- 18:15Speaker 2: They are. Yes. And they're going to be like, she
- 18:18Speaker 2: did this to me. And now you're going to lose
- 18:21Speaker 2: your house and your freedom.
- 18:23Speaker 1: But see, what if it's in Florida? Stand my ground.
- 18:25Speaker 1: If I beat you up on my property, that's well
- 18:27Speaker 1: within my rights.
- 18:28Speaker 2: Is it your property or is it their property according
- 18:31Speaker 2: to the papers?
- 18:32Speaker 1: Wow. Wow. You know what? I hope you're not my...
- 18:37Speaker 1: I hope you're not their lawyer because I'm fucked. Okay.
- 18:41Speaker 1: Every argument destroyed. Okay. Lala Esquire. She has destroyed my arguments.
- 18:47Speaker 1: I'm going to jail jail.
- 18:48Speaker 2: That concludes my argument. Your honor.
- 18:51Speaker 1: It's like, Oh, this way, this way to prison. Okay, great.
- 18:56Speaker 1: And they keep my home. Okay, cool. Cool. Sounds good.
- 18:59Speaker 1: All right, guys, we will be back after the short
- 19:02Speaker 1: break of some non-scam advertisements. And welcome back. And it's
- 19:12Speaker 1: time for my favorite part of this podcast, Historic Hoodwinks.
- 19:16Speaker 1: That is when I will regale Lala with a infamous con.
- 19:20Speaker 1: And we're going to get her opinions all throughout. I'm
- 19:22Speaker 1: so excited.
- 19:23Speaker 2: Yes.
- 19:24Speaker 1: Okay. Me too.
- 19:25Speaker 2: Okay.
- 19:25Speaker 1: So today we're talking about Richard Scott Smith. He is
- 19:31Speaker 1: a gentleman, or maybe he's not a gentleman, honey. who
- 19:35Speaker 1: scammed a group of women in the Midwest by posing
- 19:38Speaker 1: as each of their romantic interests over the span of
- 19:42Speaker 1: 20 years and stealing over $ 1 million from them. Yes.
- 19:48Speaker 1: He's the subject of a Showtime docuseries called Love Fraud,
- 19:51Speaker 1: where filmmakers followed Smith for a year, speaking with about
- 19:54Speaker 1: 30 different women in total who had been scammed by Smith.
- 20:01Speaker 2: Girl, the crazy thing is I just Google him and
- 20:04Speaker 2: it says that there's more to come. He's not done.
- 20:08Speaker 2: And that was on September 3rd. He not even that attractive.
- 20:11Speaker 2: How you let this man with the horrible hairline sit
- 20:17Speaker 2: up there and scam you out of your money?
- 20:19Speaker 1: Yeah, his hairline is running away from his face. I
- 20:22Speaker 1: don't like that. To freedom.
- 20:25Speaker 3: Man.
- 20:27Speaker 1: Listen, here's the thing. When it comes to women, and
- 20:32Speaker 1: not even just women, just people in general, if you
- 20:34Speaker 1: have a good personality, most scammers have great personalities. They're charismatic.
- 20:38Speaker 1: They're charming. If he managed to make these women feel
- 20:41Speaker 1: loved and sought after and tended for, you know what
- 20:45Speaker 1: I mean? I could see how they would fall into this.
- 20:48Speaker 1: You know, I've been lonely from time to time. You know,
- 20:51Speaker 1: a suspect looking man might, you know.
- 20:54Speaker 2: Girl.
- 20:57Speaker 3: See, that's the thing.
- 20:59Speaker 2: I be so on guard nowadays just because I know
- 21:02Speaker 2: how much scamming is going on. Like, thankfully, I don't
- 21:06Speaker 2: have to worry about that. I still be sat eyeing
- 21:08Speaker 2: my own man child looking like, hold up. Oh, all right.
- 21:12Speaker 2: Every now and again, I do the purse check where
- 21:14Speaker 2: I be like, pass me my wallet. Child, my mom
- 21:18Speaker 2: told me if a man ever dig into your purse,
- 21:20Speaker 2: he be stealing. Every time that he pass me my purse,
- 21:23Speaker 2: I be looking at him like, hold up.
- 21:24Speaker 3: Oh, all right.
- 21:25Speaker 2: He passing me the purse, not my wallet. The day
- 21:28Speaker 2: that he pass me my wallet, we're done.
- 21:31Speaker 1: I love this test I had the old test I
- 21:34Speaker 1: gotta get a new test because my test was just
- 21:36Speaker 1: like if you wake up and then all the contents
- 21:40Speaker 1: of your purse are still in there then it's like
- 21:42Speaker 1: okay cool.
- 21:44Speaker 2: Girl a smart they don't got advanced they don't obviously
- 21:48Speaker 2: they don't do it that fast no more they build
- 21:50Speaker 2: up to it you know and then they make you
- 21:53Speaker 2: fall in love next thing you know stuff come up
- 21:55Speaker 2: missing I don't know like your car you know Shoot.
- 21:59Speaker 1: Not the car. I don't want to be like, I
- 22:01Speaker 1: love you, and then the next day, like, I come
- 22:03Speaker 1: outside in the garage just empty.
- 22:06Speaker 3: Oh, girl. These men are different.
- 22:08Speaker 2: I mean, look at what happened with that makeup.
- 22:12Speaker 3: Guy, Jeffree Star.
- 22:13Speaker 1: Oh, Jeffree Star.
- 22:15Speaker 2: Yes, he went up there and went public with him, everything.
- 22:18Speaker 2: I saw it on the blogs. Next thing you know,
- 22:20Speaker 2: he said, at least bring my stuff back. Everybody was like,
- 22:23Speaker 2: the scam of the century. I said, my goodness, these
- 22:26Speaker 2: scammers are getting advanced.
- 22:28Speaker 1: They are.
- 22:29Speaker 2: This man had his whole family. The wife was crying
- 22:32Speaker 2: and stuff like he left me. Say no, sweetie. He
- 22:35Speaker 2: went off and hit a lick for y'all.
- 22:38Speaker 1: See, that's more romantic. That kind of ends the story
- 22:40Speaker 1: in the way that I wanted. So basically there's this guy,
- 22:42Speaker 1: I don't remember his name, but he's bi and he
- 22:45Speaker 1: was with a woman and they had a fresh baby.
- 22:49Speaker 1: Like the baby was like still had the, you know,
- 22:52Speaker 1: what are they called?
- 22:53Speaker 3: The placenta perm.
- 22:57Speaker 1: The baby hairs were still laid. The umbilical cord was
- 22:59Speaker 1: still very nearby. Yes, indeed. Yes. Like it was fresh
- 23:04Speaker 1: out the vagina, baby. And he left his wife or
- 23:08Speaker 1: girlfriend to be with Jeffree Star, who's a prominent and
- 23:11Speaker 1: problematic makeup artist. And the gentleman in question, I can't
- 23:14Speaker 1: remember his name, but he is black, which is funny
- 23:16Speaker 1: because Jeffree Star loves to do racism to people. But
- 23:20Speaker 1: so they got together. Jeffrey's posting him on his Instagram,
- 23:23Speaker 1: his Snapchat, kissing, hugging, all of this.
- 23:25Speaker 3: Expeditiously.
- 23:27Speaker 1: It was with the quickness. And so the wife is
- 23:30Speaker 1: on Instagram. Y'all like, please, baby, come back to me. Like,
- 23:33Speaker 1: I love you. And it's very sad. And I guess
- 23:37Speaker 1: they recently broke up because then now Jeffrey Star was
- 23:39Speaker 1: under his page. Like, hey, you're not picking up my
- 23:41Speaker 1: phone calls. Can you at least bring back my stuff?
- 23:44Speaker 1: And so I hope it's what you say, Lala. I
- 23:46Speaker 1: hope it's that he hit a lick. For the family.
- 23:48Speaker 1: You know what I mean? The baby came out.
- 23:52Speaker 2: Would you take your man back after he hit a
- 23:55Speaker 2: lick with another man?
- 23:57Speaker 1: For the family? If it was for the family, you
- 24:00Speaker 1: know what I mean?
- 24:01Speaker 2: Girl, that man, he, Jeffree Star said, he was like,
- 24:05Speaker 2: I mean, we were kicking it, having sex. He made
- 24:08Speaker 2: sure to put that in there. Why you felt the
- 24:10Speaker 2: need to say y'all was having sex? That ain't none
- 24:12Speaker 2: of our business.
- 24:13Speaker 1: Also, we could have guessed because, Jeffrey, you were posting
- 24:16Speaker 1: pictures with you straddling this man's lap. Like, we know
- 24:19Speaker 1: y'all have sex.
- 24:20Speaker 3: I know. You ain't got to say all that.
- 24:23Speaker 2: So now you done opened up your little pearly gates
- 24:26Speaker 2: of heaven just for that man to steal your stuff.
- 24:30Speaker 3: If anything, I'd have just said we was kicking it.
- 24:32Speaker 3: Go ahead, my bad girl.
- 24:33Speaker 2: Right.
- 24:34Speaker 3: No, you good.
- 24:34Speaker 1: You can always interrupt. No, and I do too. Podcast. No,
- 24:38Speaker 1: I was going to say that also Jeffrey benefited from this.
- 24:42Speaker 1: Like whatever he stole from you, come on, let's talk
- 24:44Speaker 1: about all the free clout and people were talking about
- 24:47Speaker 1: you and you were trending on Instagram and on Twitter.
- 24:50Speaker 1: So like you got something from this arrangement.
- 24:53Speaker 2: They say no publicity is bad publicity. You know what
- 24:56Speaker 2: I'm saying? And depending on who you are, a lot
- 25:00Speaker 2: of people really, really be seeking attention. I don't follow
- 25:03Speaker 2: Jeffree Star like that, and I don't really know too
- 25:05Speaker 2: much about him. But I did see the whole spectacle
- 25:08Speaker 2: occur when it happened. And just the fact that he
- 25:11Speaker 2: was public with it, I think he was enjoying it.
- 25:14Speaker 3: So, I mean, he got what he wanted.
- 25:16Speaker 2: Right.
- 25:16Speaker 1: He got the clout. He got the clicks. And I mean,
- 25:18Speaker 1: he already has a huge following, but I'm sure that
- 25:20Speaker 1: went even further and maybe even helped his non-racist narrative. Also,
- 25:24Speaker 1: I always worry about, I'm pretty, I guess I can't
- 25:28Speaker 1: say I'm squeaky clean, but I try to keep it
- 25:30Speaker 1: pretty clean with publicly how I act and what I
- 25:34Speaker 1: share and stuff. But I'm wondering if I need to
- 25:35Speaker 1: start being a little more trash so people will expect
- 25:38Speaker 1: less of me. That way I.
- 25:40Speaker 3: Don't ever have no scandals. It's so funny that you
- 25:41Speaker 3: say that.
- 25:42Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 25:43Speaker 2: Oh, that's so funny that you say that. I literally
- 25:46Speaker 2: be wondering, like, it's crazy because the people who get
- 25:52Speaker 2: glorified the most, you know, are a lot of times
- 25:56Speaker 2: people who, you know, are very, very transparent, open and like,
- 26:00Speaker 2: don't give a fin up.
- 26:02Speaker 3: That's what I'd be saying.
- 26:03Speaker 2: They just don't care about what they display, you know,
- 26:05Speaker 2: and people love it. And it's funny because I be
- 26:09Speaker 2: seeing these people get hella engagement. These people go live
- 26:12Speaker 2: and they got 10,000s and thousands of people and they
- 26:15Speaker 2: live all the time just off of, you know, doing
- 26:18Speaker 2: stuff that quote unquote or traditionally isn't morally okay.
- 26:24Speaker 3: You know? So that's a very valid question. They do.
- 26:28Speaker 2: I'm like, and I be wondering, it's funny that you
- 26:31Speaker 2: say that because I'm like, I don't know.
- 26:33Speaker 3: Should I? Should I start doing the most? You know?
- 26:36Speaker 3: Because hell, these skits... They.
- 26:39Speaker 2: Cute, but they're not engaging as if I was to
- 26:42Speaker 2: spill my business or come out with a plot or
- 26:45Speaker 2: do something crazy. Look, I swear I be feeling like
- 26:50Speaker 2: half the stuff that people do is plot just for
- 26:53Speaker 2: social media.
- 26:54Speaker 3: I can't call it. I just can't bring myself to
- 26:56Speaker 3: do it. I just can't.
- 26:57Speaker 1: Because you don't have to. Lala, you're very talented. You're
- 27:00Speaker 1: super funny. I feel like when you know that you
- 27:02Speaker 1: have the skills, it's like you don't have to rely.
- 27:04Speaker 2: On the drama. People don't want talent these days. They
- 27:07Speaker 2: don't want talent. Girl, can you not tell? Talent doesn't
- 27:11Speaker 2: sell no more. They want the mess. They want the drama.
- 27:16Speaker 1: OK.
- 27:17Speaker 2: And at this point, I'm like, well, gosh, I got
- 27:20Speaker 2: this talent. But the people who don't got talent and
- 27:23Speaker 2: they just showing ass and all that stuff, they get
- 27:26Speaker 2: more engagement.
- 27:27Speaker 3: So what does this girl got to do? Show a
- 27:29Speaker 3: left cheek, right cheek.
- 27:30Speaker 2: What's that?
- 27:31Speaker 1: But see, listen, them cheeks only last for so long.
- 27:34Speaker 1: You know what I mean? You can only keep the
- 27:36Speaker 1: only Carly Red. Carly Red is the only Instagram that
- 27:39Speaker 1: I know who has made it into her 50s. probably
- 27:41Speaker 1: would still show a cheek.
- 27:43Speaker 3: You know, I don't even know how old Carly is.
- 27:47Speaker 1: No one does.
- 27:48Speaker 3: They don't. Okay.
- 27:49Speaker 2: So I don't know how old Carly is. I don't
- 27:52Speaker 2: know how old Cash Doll is, but I'll tell you what,
- 27:55Speaker 2: these girls have been doing it for years and they've
- 27:57Speaker 2: had longevity. And I'm like, if y'all got business managers
- 28:01Speaker 2: and y'all got financial advisors keeping y'all together, y'all going
- 28:04Speaker 2: to be lucrative forever.
- 28:06Speaker 1: Forever listen and i love get it how you live
- 28:10Speaker 1: i don't knock any type.
- 28:11Speaker 3: Of hustle out there i'm like.
- 28:13Speaker 1: Get the bag um which is why i was glad
- 28:16Speaker 1: when like cardi b was kind of this resurgence of
- 28:18Speaker 1: like you seeing instagram women becoming famous on their own
- 28:21Speaker 1: right you know what i mean from like so i
- 28:23Speaker 1: was just like yes i fucking love this but so
- 28:26Speaker 1: this guy let's get back to mr smith.
- 28:29Speaker 3: Oh, my bad. Oh, we're having some good combos.
- 28:31Speaker 1: Yes. Oh, no, we go on tangents here. People love it.
- 28:34Speaker 1: They ready for it.
- 28:35Speaker 2: It's fine. All right.
- 28:37Speaker 1: This is called the kiss and diss. So, Smith worked
- 28:40Speaker 1: as a car salesman. Makes sense. Car salesmen know how
- 28:43Speaker 1: to be shady.
- 28:43Speaker 3: Don't make us be scamming.
- 28:46Speaker 1: But sometimes claimed to be a lawyer or a doctor. Okay. So,
- 28:51Speaker 1: Smith regularly went by Rick or Scott. They don't... Your
- 28:56Speaker 1: name is Richard.
- 28:56Speaker 2: Okay.
- 28:57Speaker 1: So, Richard Scott. So, you can go by Rick or Scott.
- 28:58Speaker 1: That's fine.
- 28:59Speaker 3: He's supposed to go by Dick.
- 29:01Speaker 2: True.
- 29:02Speaker 1: He was out here giving it to the community, too.
- 29:05Speaker 2: Hello. So, or.
- 29:06Speaker 1: He was passing it out like a Jehovah's Witness going
- 29:09Speaker 1: door to door with a pamphlet.
- 29:10Speaker 3: Yes, indeed.
- 29:11Speaker 1: So he's like, you can take this pamphlet or you
- 29:13Speaker 1: can take this dick. And that's beautiful. So he also
- 29:15Speaker 1: went by Mickey. I feel like if he went by
- 29:17Speaker 1: Mickey and you met him and you fucked with him, like,
- 29:19Speaker 1: that's on you. I'm never going to have any kind
- 29:22Speaker 1: of relationship with somebody named Mickey.
- 29:25Speaker 2: Well, that's a Caucasian thing, child. I feel like Mickey, Dick, Richard, Sam,
- 29:30Speaker 2: you know, all those names is very much so job security.
- 29:33Speaker 3: So he knew. The ladies heard that and they were like, ooh,
- 29:37Speaker 3: he has money.
- 29:38Speaker 1: Richard.
- 29:39Speaker 3: Yes, come on.
- 29:40Speaker 1: Has a 401k.
- 29:41Speaker 3: Yes.
- 29:42Speaker 2: Yes.
- 29:43Speaker 1: So he allegedly told many of the women he was
- 29:45Speaker 1: waiting to receive a multimillion dollar medical malpractice settlement and
- 29:49Speaker 1: promised a life of financial stability. Even telling one woman
- 29:52Speaker 1: he would pay for her son to go to college.
- 29:55Speaker 1: With another, he spoke about buying a house for them
- 29:58Speaker 1: in Belize.
- 29:59Speaker 3: Okay.
- 30:00Speaker 1: Listen, I've said this before, but I think Belize is
- 30:02Speaker 1: an ugly island, and y'all can fight me. I've been
- 30:05Speaker 1: there a lot. I don't like it.
- 30:08Speaker 3: Anyways.
- 30:09Speaker 1: But shout out to y'all as people, but not y'all island.
- 30:12Speaker 1: So at first glance, Smith appeared to be a great catch.
- 30:16Speaker 1: He was attractive. Okay, so attractive.
- 30:18Speaker 3: They lying. They lying. According to whom?
- 30:24Speaker 2: Yes.
- 30:25Speaker 3: Yes.
- 30:26Speaker 1: Maybe, I guess. And he offered middle-aged women that he
- 30:30Speaker 1: dated a shoulder to cry on. He left love-filled voicemails
- 30:34Speaker 1: and told them he couldn't stand to be away from them.
- 30:38Speaker 1: Smith quickly proposed and in many cases married the women.
- 30:43Speaker 1: Smith often convinced the women to open joint bank accounts
- 30:46Speaker 1: with him or use their credit cards to buy cars, homes,
- 30:49Speaker 1: or even businesses.
- 30:52Speaker 2: Girl, you know what this sound like? Did Tyler Perry
- 30:55Speaker 2: get inspiration for his movie from this?
- 30:59Speaker 3: You know what movie I'm talking about? It just came out. No,
- 31:03Speaker 3: the movie. Yes, the one with Brisha Webb.
- 31:07Speaker 1: Oh, that's called the wigs. There's so many wigs.
- 31:12Speaker 2: Yes, girl. Yes.
- 31:14Speaker 1: A fall from grace.
- 31:16Speaker 2: A fall from grace sounds just like this. He literally
- 31:19Speaker 2: married her quick, got access to her account, sold.
- 31:23Speaker 3: The house, everything. Everything that this man is doing.
- 31:28Speaker 1: Y'all, if you ever wake up and you start feeling
- 31:31Speaker 1: like Tyler Perry movies are relatable, you really need to
- 31:34Speaker 1: get your life together. Child, listen.
- 31:39Speaker 2: If you do ever feel like a Tyler Perry movie
- 31:42Speaker 2: is relatable, then you got to reevaluate your life and
- 31:45Speaker 2: what you got going on. Because them movies all be drama-filled.
- 31:49Speaker 1: If you're married to an abusive dark-skinned man and then
- 31:52Speaker 1: a light-skinned bus driver with a cornrow weave shows up,
- 31:57Speaker 1: you got to watch out because your life may be
- 31:59Speaker 1: a talisman movie. Man, look.
- 32:04Speaker 3: If ever, I would be like, oh, hell no.
- 32:07Speaker 2: Go right back to sleep, wake up and do it
- 32:09Speaker 2: over because I don't like that.
- 32:11Speaker 1: No, it's a mess. But also what strikes me here
- 32:14Speaker 1: is these are middle-aged women. Some of them have college-age children.
- 32:19Speaker 1: And when you're at that age, it's harder, especially for women,
- 32:24Speaker 1: to find men who aren't damaged goods. Because if you're
- 32:27Speaker 1: a normal, well-adjusted man, by the time you're in your
- 32:31Speaker 1: mid to late 40s, for the most part, you're either
- 32:34Speaker 1: in a relationship or you're married. Or maybe you're out
- 32:39Speaker 1: here having a midlife crisis or dating younger women because
- 32:42Speaker 1: you're childish. But you know what I mean? So it's
- 32:44Speaker 1: hard to find the men who are single who are
- 32:47Speaker 1: good men because it's almost like you got to be
- 32:49Speaker 1: waiting outside the funeral home, like see whose wife died.
- 32:52Speaker 1: And you got to be right there with the flowers
- 32:54Speaker 1: to get them because the next day they're going to
- 32:56Speaker 1: be gone. That's the only time you can get one.
- 32:59Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 32:59Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 33:00Speaker 3: Pretty much. Pretty much.
- 33:02Speaker 1: You just got to hang out at the cemetery and
- 33:04Speaker 1: buy the fresh graves.
- 33:06Speaker 3: Listen. Oh my God.
- 33:10Speaker 2: So my question, what happened with this, with this Richard guy?
- 33:14Speaker 3: Like, how did he get caught? Did he get in trouble? Like,
- 33:18Speaker 3: What's he with him? Because I'm curious and I'm getting mad.
- 33:21Speaker 1: Yeah, there's more. So one shocking discovery was that he
- 33:24Speaker 1: would often borrow details of the lives of other women
- 33:28Speaker 1: he was seeing when targeting a new woman. For example,
- 33:31Speaker 1: he told one woman he had a kid sister named Nicole,
- 33:34Speaker 1: which was actually one of his booze had a kid
- 33:36Speaker 1: sister named Nicole. He would offer all these details. In reality,
- 33:41Speaker 1: he was describing the kid of another woman that he
- 33:43Speaker 1: was seeing. As soon as his lady was suspicious of him,
- 33:46Speaker 1: he would disappear and move on to the next victim.
- 33:48Speaker 1: So as soon as he started asking questions, as soon
- 33:50Speaker 1: as he reached in the purse to grab the wallet,
- 33:52Speaker 1: instead of asking it, he would be gone. There would
- 33:55Speaker 1: be a trail of dust.
- 33:56Speaker 3: Wow.
- 33:57Speaker 1: Wow. So Sabrina Dunlap is one of the many women
- 34:00Speaker 1: Smith was engaged to.
- 34:01Speaker 3: Wait a minute. Is Sabrina black or white?
- 34:05Speaker 1: I don't know. We can Google, but I feel like
- 34:07Speaker 1: Sabrina's probably not one of us.
- 34:10Speaker 3: Sabrina Dunlap sound black as hell.
- 34:13Speaker 1: Really? Marina, Google Sabrina Dunlap love fraud and tell us
- 34:17Speaker 1: if she's Black. We need to know. So Smith told
- 34:21Speaker 1: her that he was married once before, but had been
- 34:24Speaker 1: divorced for three years. He seemed to be someone who
- 34:27Speaker 1: was stable and worked hard, which made Dunlap think, wow,
- 34:30Speaker 1: this is a good guy. He was good looking and
- 34:34Speaker 1: he seemed honest. After a first date at the sandwich
- 34:38Speaker 1: chain Schlotzky's. You ain't taking me no sandwich shop for
- 34:41Speaker 1: the first date.
- 34:41Speaker 2: Bitch, what?
- 34:42Speaker 1: Schlotzky's. I don't want to eat fresh on our first date. Anyway,
- 34:46Speaker 1: it says after that he wooed her with clothes and jewelry.
- 34:51Speaker 2: Okay.
- 34:51Speaker 1: And she said, I wasn't used to that. Clearly, you
- 34:53Speaker 1: was having a date at Schlotzky's. She said, oh, wow.
- 34:56Speaker 1: He is really nice. He also befriended her dog. Come
- 35:00Speaker 1: on now. Selena can't be black. We'll wait.
- 35:02Speaker 2: Child. At that point, okay.
- 35:05Speaker 1: It looks like I can't find a photo, but she's
- 35:08Speaker 1: described as Blonde.
- 35:12Speaker 3: She white.
- 35:12Speaker 1: Here, a blonde 49-year-old with no tolerance for nonsense.
- 35:16Speaker 3: No tolerance for nonsense. That's how they describe her?
- 35:19Speaker 2: Wow.
- 35:19Speaker 1: So Chelsea just said they described her as a blonde
- 35:22Speaker 1: woman with no tolerance for nonsense. She still very much
- 35:25Speaker 1: could be Black. We love a Mary J. Blonde in
- 35:29Speaker 1: the community. Okay.
- 35:30Speaker 2: Okay.
- 35:31Speaker 1: Get your auntie boots out and start stepping. So we
- 35:33Speaker 1: don't know yet. But he befriended her dog, treating her
- 35:37Speaker 1: beloved pet to a McDonald's hamburger.
- 35:39Speaker 2: Okay.
- 35:39Speaker 1: Okay. Smith went as far as showing his devotion by
- 35:42Speaker 1: tattooing Sabrina on his body above another tattoo on his shoulder.
- 35:47Speaker 2: Hmm.
- 35:48Speaker 1: Starting to sound even more Black.
- 35:49Speaker 2: Hmm.
- 35:50Speaker 3: Oh, my God.
- 35:51Speaker 1: I don't know. Looking back.
- 35:53Speaker 3: She look like Rachel Dolezal.
- 35:54Speaker 1: You found her? Oh, is she Black? Oh, let me see. Okay, no.
- 35:59Speaker 3: She's not.
- 36:00Speaker 1: So, according to Dunlap, Smith got a $ 250, 000 life insurance
- 36:04Speaker 1: policy on her and then all of a sudden desired
- 36:07Speaker 1: to go on a cruise.
- 36:08Speaker 2: What? My man say, babe, I want to pull out
- 36:18Speaker 2: an insurance policy for you.
- 36:19Speaker 3: Then say, let's go swimming. I'm going to be like.
- 36:22Speaker 2: I canceled the policy. It was too expensive for my pockets.
- 36:27Speaker 3: I'm good. He was about to start killing these women.
- 36:30Speaker 1: I think he might have. He was like, it was
- 36:32Speaker 1: going to be a boat accident. He was like, boo,
- 36:34Speaker 1: I put out a life insurance policy and surprise skydiving tickets.
- 36:38Speaker 1: Let's go. You jump first.
- 36:41Speaker 3: I'm about to dive in.
- 36:43Speaker 2: No. No.
- 36:45Speaker 1: Damn. But shortly after booking the cruise, he discovered a
- 36:49Speaker 1: tumor and had to get it removed. Luckily, he actually
- 36:52Speaker 1: got sick and the cruise didn't happen. But when I
- 36:54Speaker 1: look back, I honestly believe he.
- 36:55Speaker 2: Was going to throw me off the cruise.
- 36:57Speaker 1: And to prove to my family and probably the police,
- 37:00Speaker 1: they would probably think like, oh, he loved her. see
- 37:04Speaker 1: my name like her name is on my back so
- 37:06Speaker 1: basically he got this tattoo of her that says like
- 37:09Speaker 1: oh you know he's dedicated he loves her and then
- 37:11Speaker 1: he's gonna throw her ass off the boat like an
- 37:13Speaker 1: acrimony except she wasn't gonna get back on and he
- 37:16Speaker 1: was gonna be like look i got her tag on
- 37:18Speaker 1: me i would never kill her wow wow god really
- 37:23Speaker 1: helps you out miss dunlap he really helps you out
- 37:26Speaker 1: So Dunlap left Smith after learning he told her dad
- 37:30Speaker 1: and brother-in-law that she was the one frivolously spending money.
- 37:34Speaker 1: Then she says she found out that he was using
- 37:36Speaker 1: her credit cards to pay his medical bills. Like, ooh,
- 37:39Speaker 1: it took you too long to find that out, sis.
- 37:41Speaker 3: What did he have wrong?
- 37:43Speaker 1: He had a tumor.
- 37:45Speaker 2: Oh, yeah.
- 37:45Speaker 3: Okay, okay. Got it.
- 37:46Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 37:47Speaker 1: So she later got more information when her mother was
- 37:49Speaker 1: contacted through LinkedIn by one of Smith's wives. See, that's
- 37:52Speaker 1: how you know his other wives were snooping. When you
- 37:54Speaker 1: start snooping on LinkedIn, when you start trying to find
- 37:57Speaker 1: people on Venmo and any app possible, that's when you
- 38:01Speaker 1: know you really snooping. So the woman snooping reached out
- 38:06Speaker 1: to Dunlap and said that she decided that he wasn't
- 38:08Speaker 1: going to get away with this shit and that she
- 38:10Speaker 1: had filed charges for identity theft. Dunlap says that meeting
- 38:14Speaker 1: the others Smith wronged has helped her mentally recover. So
- 38:17Speaker 1: now they probably got like a sorority or like, you know,
- 38:20Speaker 1: like a girls group. They play bunko on Tuesday nights
- 38:25Speaker 1: and drink white wine.
- 38:26Speaker 2: Yes, girl.
- 38:27Speaker 3: Beefing with my enemy makes you a friend of me
- 38:29Speaker 3: in this case.
- 38:31Speaker 1: Yes, absolutely. Another victim claimed he left her with $ 750, 000
- 38:35Speaker 1: worth of debt after he convinced her to start a
- 38:37Speaker 1: business with him and then had her co-sign on a
- 38:40Speaker 1: home mortgage. Smith didn't pay the mortgage for months and
- 38:44Speaker 1: hid the past due notices so the women had no
- 38:46Speaker 1: idea how much debt she was collecting until he fled.
- 38:49Speaker 1: When the marriage things come, everything he does is legal.
- 38:52Speaker 1: There's nothing they can do to him because he actually
- 38:54Speaker 1: marries them. Then it's his community property, she explained. So
- 38:58Speaker 1: he was actually marrying these women, like on paper. And
- 39:00Speaker 1: then be like, let's get a house. Give me $ 750, 000.
- 39:04Speaker 1: Let's open a Krispy Kreme.
- 39:05Speaker 2: So when he divorced them before the next one, like,
- 39:08Speaker 2: was there not, you know?
- 39:10Speaker 1: Yeah, it feels like a little big me going on here.
- 39:13Speaker 1: I don't know how he was getting away with this.
- 39:16Speaker 1: So this is him getting caught, sort of.
- 39:19Speaker 2: At this point, every time he walked up to the
- 39:21Speaker 2: justice of the peace, they were probably like, hey, welcome back.
- 39:25Speaker 1: He getting discounts.
- 39:27Speaker 3: Yes.
- 39:28Speaker 1: Let me get the three for five for this.
- 39:30Speaker 2: Year.
- 39:30Speaker 3: Man.
- 39:32Speaker 1: You know, also, I'm trying to think of like the
- 39:35Speaker 1: kind of guy you have to be to, you have
- 39:38Speaker 1: to have like some kind of personality disorder or something
- 39:41Speaker 1: to constantly be creating relationships with people and making them
- 39:45Speaker 1: seem meaningful and then running off on them or stealing their,
- 39:49Speaker 1: like he was maybe about to dabble in murder.
- 39:53Speaker 3: Minus the murder, he sound like a typical nigga.
- 39:59Speaker 1: Perhaps. A little bit. Yo, the murder's funny to me, though.
- 40:03Speaker 1: He was like, hey, girl, I got us these Carnival
- 40:04Speaker 1: Cruise tickets.
- 40:05Speaker 2: Man. That's the part that throws me for a loop.
- 40:09Speaker 3: I'm like, wait a minute.
- 40:11Speaker 1: He's like, boo, come out here to the balcony. Let's
- 40:13Speaker 1: get a picture by the ocean. Yeah, no, get closer.
- 40:15Speaker 1: That's crazy. Closer to the ocean. Right.
- 40:19Speaker 3: Next thing you know, she's over.
- 40:21Speaker 1: Yes. Love overboard.
- 40:24Speaker 2: Love overboard.
- 40:25Speaker 1: Okay, so.
- 40:27Speaker 1: I'm sorry. I'm sorry that I did that. So getting caught.
- 40:31Speaker 1: So Smith was arrested in 2017 for identity theft and
- 40:34Speaker 1: forgery in Johnson County, Kansas, after his former fiancee, Sabrina Dunlap,
- 40:39Speaker 1: told police he had maxed out her credit cards and
- 40:42Speaker 1: drained their joint savings account. Smith had also taken out
- 40:45Speaker 1: a fraudulent credit application in her name without authorization. She
- 40:49Speaker 1: believed he had taken her driver's license, likely while she
- 40:52Speaker 1: was sleeping, copied it to gain the information he needed
- 40:55Speaker 1: to fill out the implication, and then forged her signature
- 40:58Speaker 1: at the bottom. Damn, sis. Smith allegedly used her name
- 41:02Speaker 1: to purchase two cars.
- 41:03Speaker 3: Two!
- 41:05Speaker 1: This is the audacity here. Like, this man.
- 41:09Speaker 3: He is bold.
- 41:11Speaker 2: Smith.
- 41:12Speaker 1: The audacity of Smith, okay? I know we had the
- 41:14Speaker 1: audacity of Obama, but now we have the audacity of
- 41:18Speaker 1: Dick Smith, because wow. Pretty much. Two cards.
- 41:22Speaker 2: Too much.
- 41:23Speaker 1: Open credit cards. And took out cable service in four
- 41:27Speaker 1: Kansas City area apartments. So he was over here paying for...
- 41:31Speaker 1: So this is probably setting up his next victim.
- 41:35Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 41:36Speaker 1: He was like, boy, I got that Comcast for you. Yes.
- 41:39Speaker 1: He was literally like taking stuff from the prior to
- 41:43Speaker 1: impress his bigger fish, the next one.
- 41:46Speaker 3: Because women love men who can match their energy.
- 41:48Speaker 1: Yes.
- 41:49Speaker 3: He was proactive.
- 41:52Speaker 2: I always say if scammers put the energy that they
- 41:54Speaker 2: put into scamming into actually growing a business and stuff,
- 41:58Speaker 2: they could be multimillionaires legally.
- 42:01Speaker 3: I always say that.
- 42:02Speaker 2: Right.
- 42:03Speaker 1: But what are laws, really? You know what I mean?
- 42:05Speaker 1: There's so many people who are multimillionaires illegally, but they're
- 42:08Speaker 1: hiding assets. They're skimming money. You can't become a billionaire
- 42:12Speaker 1: without killing people, either inadvertently.
- 42:14Speaker 2: Or on purpose.
- 42:15Speaker 3: That's what I heard. That's what I heard.
- 42:17Speaker 1: You know how many people have done that working for
- 42:19Speaker 1: Jeff Bezos? And they be sweeping it under the rug. So,
- 42:23Speaker 1: you know, it's, you know what I mean? So it's
- 42:25Speaker 1: all a dirty game. But yeah, you're right. I mean,
- 42:27Speaker 1: you could at least gain more money and probably stay
- 42:30Speaker 1: out of jail if he were to use these skills
- 42:32Speaker 1: in a positive way. So he eventually pled guilty to
- 42:35Speaker 1: the identity theft charge in exchange for dropping the forgery
- 42:37Speaker 1: charge and was sentenced to 10 months in the clink.
- 42:41Speaker 1: When he violated his probation... Yep, just 10 months, you know?
- 42:44Speaker 3: Okay.
- 42:45Speaker 1: Right, we get a lot more. When he violated his
- 42:48Speaker 1: probation in 2019 after failing to report and failing to pay,
- 42:53Speaker 1: basically restitution, his probation was extended into August 29th. With
- 42:57Speaker 1: the help of a private investigator, he was eventually arrested
- 42:59Speaker 1: again in Knoxville, Tennessee, new state, for violating his probation
- 43:04Speaker 1: and was sentenced to 180 days in jail. Still not
- 43:07Speaker 1: a lot. Investigators found 11 marriage certificates... 11.
- 43:12Speaker 3: Gee whiz. And no divorce papers.
- 43:16Speaker 1: Yeah, that's not what I'm saying. He was saying I
- 43:18Speaker 1: do all the time. He was like, I do, I do,
- 43:19Speaker 1: I do.
- 43:22Speaker 2: Yes, I got that. Kenan and Kel, orange soda. That
- 43:26Speaker 2: was his marriage. Orange soda was his marriage. Yes.
- 43:28Speaker 1: So, investigators also found like the 11 marriage certificates while
- 43:31Speaker 1: looking at Smith's background. One investigator said, I don't know
- 43:34Speaker 1: how one person can juggle so much. Adding that a
- 43:37Speaker 1: number of these marriages overlapped and when he was even
- 43:41Speaker 1: dating people on the side at the same damn time.
- 43:44Speaker 1: Smith's time behind bars was short-lived. He apparently already, he's
- 43:48Speaker 1: back on the streets and supposedly dating again. But his
- 43:52Speaker 1: victims believe the publicity of the docuseries is going to
- 43:55Speaker 1: ruin his dating life and they are wrong.
- 43:58Speaker 2: I know they're wrong because I just told you that
- 44:00Speaker 2: article said he's not done. There's plenty of women like,
- 44:03Speaker 2: mind you, I never heard of this man. So if
- 44:06Speaker 2: I was to cry to him, I'd be like, ooh,
- 44:07Speaker 2: sugar daddy vibes. Next thing you know, he passed me
- 44:09Speaker 2: my wallet. Right. Exactly.
- 44:12Speaker 1: You're like, ooh, I just got free time Warner.
- 44:14Speaker 2: For real.
- 44:16Speaker 1: And we going on a cruise. Yep. Yep.
- 44:19Speaker 2: Girl, he said he going to take me on a
- 44:21Speaker 2: cruise because he saw I was in Mexico. He want
- 44:23Speaker 2: to take me to Cabo.
- 44:25Speaker 1: And he got us a joint life insurance policy. Mine
- 44:28Speaker 1: is for some reason worth more.
- 44:30Speaker 2: But that is the funny thing is he probably was like, oh,
- 44:36Speaker 2: I already have mine, but I think it's important. And
- 44:38Speaker 2: it's like, oh, he trying to boss me up. He's
- 44:41Speaker 2: getting me life insurance. Like, girl, I never had a
- 44:43Speaker 2: man give me life insurance.
- 44:44Speaker 3: He really care.
- 44:46Speaker 1: Right. And it's like, I don't know when is the
- 44:49Speaker 1: right time for anybody to talk about life insurance. I
- 44:52Speaker 1: guess after you're married, but it would feel weird if
- 44:55Speaker 1: they were like, hey, baby, I just want to tell
- 44:57Speaker 1: you I love you and we should get life insurance together.
- 45:02Speaker 2: Yes, we should get life insurance because you never know
- 45:05Speaker 2: what could happen. And I just want to make sure
- 45:07Speaker 2: your family is good. You know, I want to make
- 45:10Speaker 2: sure that your kids are good and secure because, yes,
- 45:14Speaker 2: you're working hard. But if you're not here, who's going
- 45:17Speaker 2: to be the provider? I know you provide for your family,
- 45:20Speaker 2: all that stuff. You see how good I made that sound?
- 45:22Speaker 2: You was over there thinking about buying a policy yourself.
- 45:25Speaker 1: I was. I was about to make you the benefactor.
- 45:27Speaker 1: I was like, you know, this makes a lot of sense.
- 45:29Speaker 3: See, that's what I'm saying.
- 45:31Speaker 1: This must be my third date combo.
- 45:35Speaker 2: I really like you.
- 45:37Speaker 3: Listen, and what? During the pandemic?
- 45:40Speaker 2: Oh, girl.
- 45:41Speaker 3: Right, this is the.
- 45:42Speaker 1: Time that's like, look, normally I would wait a few years, but,
- 45:45Speaker 1: you know, it's COVID times right now, baby. So I
- 45:47Speaker 1: just feel like in order to feel secure in this relationship,
- 45:52Speaker 1: how many of us go down to State Farm? Talk
- 45:54Speaker 1: to Jake.
- 45:56Speaker 2: Yep. Yep.
- 45:59Speaker 3: Yep. Don't worry, I'll do it for you.
- 46:05Speaker 1: Lala now does insurance. You heard it here first.
- 46:08Speaker 2: No, all jokes aside, I used to work at insurance
- 46:11Speaker 2: before I got into this whole thing.
- 46:12Speaker 3: Really?
- 46:14Speaker 2: Yes. And my boss was always trying to pitch life
- 46:17Speaker 2: insurance because it was the most expensive policy.
- 46:20Speaker 3: So the commission was higher.
- 46:22Speaker 1: Did you go to people's houses to slang the insurance
- 46:24Speaker 1: or were you like in house, like in the building?
- 46:26Speaker 2: No, no, no. No, when they get cars and do
- 46:29Speaker 2: their cars and house, it'll be like, okay, well, obviously
- 46:36Speaker 2: you have assets. You want to make sure you're able
- 46:39Speaker 2: to pay for them. Do you have life insurance? Girl,
- 46:43Speaker 2: and half of them will be like, the ones who
- 46:45Speaker 2: was always interested always had a health ailment that kind
- 46:48Speaker 2: of like ruined their chances of getting it because they
- 46:51Speaker 2: don't want somebody that's already going to need it. They
- 46:55Speaker 2: like healthy people. You know, but yeah, girl, it was
- 46:58Speaker 2: very much so a thing, just like how he was
- 47:00Speaker 2: selling it to them.
- 47:01Speaker 3: It's crazy.
- 47:03Speaker 1: Well, guys, if you see anybody named Richard Scott Smith,
- 47:07Speaker 1: which we should have known, he's got a very shady
- 47:09Speaker 1: sounding name, run the other way. Or don't, you know,
- 47:13Speaker 1: become his sugar mama. Have a great time. He probably
- 47:15Speaker 1: laying some good peen because people seem real distracted.
- 47:19Speaker 2: If I met a man like that, I would real
- 47:21Speaker 2: life play him. And I knew what it was. I
- 47:24Speaker 2: would try to go along with it just to see
- 47:26Speaker 2: if I could scam him. But if I see he
- 47:28Speaker 2: was getting in too much over my head, I'd go
- 47:30Speaker 2: ahead and be like, all right, nah. Because the thing is,
- 47:32Speaker 2: at the beginning, he be swooning them. And then stuff
- 47:37Speaker 2: start turning. So the thing is, they be getting in
- 47:39Speaker 2: too deep. They need to take what they could get
- 47:42Speaker 2: and then they disappear on him. Don't let the man
- 47:44Speaker 2: come to your house. Every time he be like, well,
- 47:47Speaker 2: let's go back to your house. Let's go to yours.
- 47:49Speaker 2: Let's go to yours.
- 47:52Speaker 1: No, let's go to your place. Yeah. Oh, my place
- 47:54Speaker 1: is a mess. You know, we can just sit in
- 47:55Speaker 1: the car then.
- 47:56Speaker 3: That's fine.
- 47:57Speaker 2: Okay.
- 47:57Speaker 1: Yes.
- 47:58Speaker 2: Yes.
- 47:59Speaker 1: Turn the air up. Yes.
- 48:01Speaker 3: For real.
- 48:02Speaker 1: Yes.
- 48:03Speaker 2: I can massage your hairline so it could possibly grow. Yeah,
- 48:06Speaker 2: let's spend some time.
- 48:08Speaker 1: You still stuck on that man's hairline.
- 48:10Speaker 2: Girl, I can't get over it. I ain't never seen
- 48:12Speaker 2: nothing like that.
- 48:15Speaker 1: Oh, Lord. Well, all right, guys. We're going to take
- 48:17Speaker 1: one more quick break for non-scam advertisements. And we'll be
- 48:20Speaker 1: back with the end of the show. All right, guys.
- 48:28Speaker 1: And we are back. And this is my least favorite
- 48:30Speaker 1: part of the show because this is when I'm going
- 48:31Speaker 1: to have to let Lala go soon.
- 48:33Speaker 3: I got to leave. It was getting so good. I
- 48:36Speaker 3: ain't had no people-to-people interaction in a long time.
- 48:39Speaker 2: Same.
- 48:40Speaker 1: Honestly, this podcast has been saving my life because it's
- 48:42Speaker 1: like I get to talk to people and like laugh
- 48:45Speaker 1: and kick it. It's so nice because it's nice.
- 48:47Speaker 3: I feel like we in a kickback right now and
- 48:49Speaker 3: I'm loving it.
- 48:50Speaker 2: Yes.
- 48:51Speaker 1: I love to hear that. So scammer of the week
- 48:53Speaker 1: is former Trump advisor Steve Bannon. He's charged with misusing
- 48:57Speaker 1: donations for Trump's border wall. So, I mean, listen, y'all,
- 49:01Speaker 1: please go early. Please vote. And if you vote for Trump,
- 49:06Speaker 1: stay home.
- 49:07Speaker 2: Okay.
- 49:08Speaker 1: Relax. Take a break. You deserve it. It's been a
- 49:11Speaker 1: wild news cycle. You don't need to vote. But everyone else,
- 49:15Speaker 1: please go vote. So through a viral GoFundMe page, and
- 49:20Speaker 1: other fundraising efforts, Bannon, along with Brian Kolfage, an Air
- 49:23Speaker 1: Force veteran who lost both of his legs and his
- 49:26Speaker 1: right arm on deployment in Iraq in 2004, is Andrew,
- 49:30Speaker 1: I don't know. Why do we need to know that? Anyway,
- 49:31Speaker 1: Andrew Baladado and Timothy Shea raised more than $ 225 million
- 49:37Speaker 1: in private donations for people who were told that 100%
- 49:40Speaker 1: of their coins were going straight to the wall. They said,
- 49:46Speaker 1: from your wallet to the wall.
- 49:48Speaker 3: Hey. All these races crawl.
- 49:51Speaker 1: Crawl. Crawl. They said it was about to be lit. Oh,
- 49:59Speaker 1: I love it.
- 49:59Speaker 3: Come on, go, John.
- 50:01Speaker 1: So they all face charges of conspiracy to commit wire fraud.
- 50:04Speaker 1: I love a good wire fraud. And conspiracy to commit
- 50:07Speaker 1: money laundering in connection with We Build the Wall. I
- 50:12Speaker 1: need to start my own wall fund. But the thing is,
- 50:14Speaker 1: if I start a GoFundMe for a wall, I am
- 50:17Speaker 1: actually going to build it, y'all. The only issue is
- 50:18Speaker 1: I don't really know how to build a wall. So
- 50:20Speaker 1: I'm going to get some bricks, and it's going to
- 50:23Speaker 1: start off small.
- 50:25Speaker 2: I'm going to tell you what, I would like to
- 50:27Speaker 2: have a wall fund too, but I want it to
- 50:29Speaker 2: be my vaginal walls because as many times as these
- 50:33Speaker 2: walls have been ran through, I need to rebuild them.
- 50:37Speaker 3: And vinegar ain't doing a trick.
- 50:39Speaker 1: Okay.
- 50:41Speaker 2: So if y'all would like, please feel free to donate
- 50:43Speaker 2: to my vaginal wall fund.
- 50:46Speaker 1: Now, how do people know that the money went to
- 50:48Speaker 1: the walls?
- 50:50Speaker 2: Um, the next guy who get to hit it can
- 50:53Speaker 2: verify that the walls are officially built and now intact.
- 51:00Speaker 1: That we built the wall. Yes. Yes.
- 51:02Speaker 2: Guys.
- 51:03Speaker 3: I'm just playing. Let me stop before my man kill me.
- 51:05Speaker 2: No.
- 51:07Speaker 1: We don't want that. No, these are all jokes, guys.
- 51:09Speaker 1: Y'all know that. Y'all know that. So a U.S. attorney
- 51:14Speaker 1: in New York charged the men with improperly diverting more
- 51:17Speaker 1: than $ 1. 3 million for their personal use. So, okay, they
- 51:21Speaker 1: said 25 mil for the wall, and then they said,
- 51:23Speaker 1: we're just going to take 1.3 for us. That's not
- 51:26Speaker 1: that bad. Even before the charges, some donors had been
- 51:29Speaker 1: raising questions about the project's progress and demanding proof and
- 51:32Speaker 1: photographs of new construction. Show me a video of the
- 51:36Speaker 1: wall being built. I'll punny up my next donation, reads
- 51:39Speaker 1: one angry Facebook comment. Where is the rest of the
- 51:42Speaker 1: money going, reads another. Actions are probably more like, where's
- 51:45Speaker 1: the rest of the money going? Show me a video
- 51:49Speaker 1: of the wall keeping them rounds out. Anyway, one week
- 51:53Speaker 1: before his arrest, Colfage was still on crowdfunding pages asking
- 51:56Speaker 1: donors for more money to meet new deadlines. A spokesperson
- 52:01Speaker 1: for GoFundMe stated that hosting platform had been cooperating with
- 52:04Speaker 1: the investigation and has already returned roughly $ 6 million. So
- 52:09Speaker 1: here's the thing. The wall is supposed to be built
- 52:11Speaker 1: by the government. So why are y'all dumbasses over here
- 52:13Speaker 1: even giving money to whoever the fuck online talking about,
- 52:17Speaker 1: you know, we're going to build the wall ourselves. We
- 52:21Speaker 1: got six.
- 52:22Speaker 2: I'm not going to lie. If I disguised myself as
- 52:25Speaker 2: a racist person who was a Trump supporter, I could
- 52:31Speaker 2: easily like build a following and make people give money.
- 52:35Speaker 2: A lot of these people really be racist, rich people
- 52:41Speaker 2: who have nothing better to do.
- 52:43Speaker 3: So they don't have a problem. Oh, he said he
- 52:45Speaker 3: going to build it? All right, cool. Send them 5,000.
- 52:48Speaker 2: That's perfectly fine by me. Long as it get built.
- 52:50Speaker 3: Like, They just be bored.
- 52:52Speaker 2: You know people with money really be having a lot
- 52:54Speaker 2: of time on their hands. True.
- 52:57Speaker 1: And you know what's weird to me, I guess, is like,
- 53:00Speaker 1: you know, like Candace Owens started out as a kind
- 53:03Speaker 1: of Democrat left-leaning person. And then she went full right
- 53:05Speaker 1: ring when she realized, like, that's where the coins were.
- 53:08Speaker 1: You know, I've been seeing a lot of Trump merch
- 53:10Speaker 1: that's like, I saw Trump earrings that were like rhinestone
- 53:14Speaker 1: heart-shaped earrings.
- 53:15Speaker 3: Shut up.
- 53:16Speaker 1: You're lying.
- 53:17Speaker 3: I'm not.
- 53:18Speaker 1: They had Trump written across them. And there's Trump necklaces
- 53:21Speaker 1: and Trump socks and Trump shoes. I cannot make this up.
- 53:24Speaker 1: And I was like, what if I just got into
- 53:26Speaker 1: the business of making Trump merch and just like, but
- 53:30Speaker 1: they don't know it's coming from a black person.
- 53:32Speaker 3: You would, you would really make money.
- 53:36Speaker 2: My page will probably lose stupid, crazy amount of followers.
- 53:41Speaker 1: Trump panty packs, Trump panties. And they put the grab
- 53:44Speaker 1: them by the pussy on the front. You know what
- 53:46Speaker 1: I mean?
- 53:46Speaker 3: I got ideas. That's good. That's good. That's good.
- 53:51Speaker 2: That's good.
- 53:52Speaker 1: Right.
- 53:53Speaker 3: You got my wheels over here turning.
- 53:55Speaker 2: Right? I can make some stuff that look like it's
- 53:57Speaker 2: about to be Trump merch. And then when you get closer,
- 54:00Speaker 2: you realize that it's not. And then a fine print
- 54:04Speaker 2: on a website, honey. It's actually, it says this, so
- 54:09Speaker 2: be careful while purchasing. But instead of it being in
- 54:11Speaker 2: like 28, SAS 28 font, it'll be in SAS 2.
- 54:15Speaker 3: It was on there.
- 54:17Speaker 1: You just had to zoom in. You just had to
- 54:19Speaker 1: zoom in.
- 54:19Speaker 2: Exactly.
- 54:20Speaker 3: That's great. Yeah.
- 54:21Speaker 1: I mean, okay, Trump belly rings. At least let me
- 54:24Speaker 1: get like a little MAGA that we can put at
- 54:26Speaker 1: the bottom of people's belly rings. Trump toe rings. I
- 54:28Speaker 1: think these are things that the Trump community would really enjoy.
- 54:32Speaker 2: At this point, do Trump anal plugs. You could do
- 54:37Speaker 2: the anal beads. That's a big industry amongst people with money.
- 54:43Speaker 1: Oh, yes, sure.
- 54:44Speaker 3: You could come out with Trump spray tans.
- 54:47Speaker 1: Oh, now see, that's what Donald Trump should really be
- 54:50Speaker 1: trying to hawk right now in the White House.
- 54:51Speaker 3: Cheeto orange.
- 54:53Speaker 1: Cheeto orange. Yes.
- 54:54Speaker 2: Bronzer.
- 54:55Speaker 1: Bronze disc.
- 54:56Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 54:57Speaker 3: That would go crazy. SPF 70.
- 55:01Speaker 2: Oh, yes.
- 55:01Speaker 1: Yep, you right. Put some sunscreen in it. That's good.
- 55:05Speaker 1: You know, a pestle and mortar so people can grind
- 55:06Speaker 1: up their Adderall, just snort it and classy, real classy like.
- 55:10Speaker 3: Girl, you getting too good.
- 55:13Speaker 1: See, I really wish I could use these powers for evil,
- 55:15Speaker 1: which I feel like we could have a great company
- 55:17Speaker 1: of just like evil merch for like evil people.
- 55:20Speaker 3: Owned by two black women. Honey, they were faint once revealed. Right,
- 55:24Speaker 3: we never revealed.
- 55:25Speaker 2: Two black women become millionaires. And then we post up
- 55:29Speaker 2: like cheese.
- 55:30Speaker 3: They'll be like, oh, hell no.
- 55:33Speaker 1: We just want to thank all the races out there
- 55:34Speaker 1: for supporting black Queens.
- 55:37Speaker 3: Okay.
