- 10:02Speaker 2: I have a black mama who I would get in
- 10:04Speaker 2: trouble if I smelled like outside Like she did not
- 10:06Speaker 2: play that shit. So if I was musty after I
- 10:08Speaker 2: came off for school, she was like, oh, why are

- 10:11Speaker 2: go to your room. I can't believe you came in

- 10:26Speaker 2: one time I went into the bathroom and I turned
- 10:29Speaker 2: the water on like I was showering, and then I
- 10:31Speaker 2: sat on the toilet.
- 10:32Speaker 3: Tell me why I fell asleep on the toilet.
- 10:35Speaker 1: My father came in because obviously I've been in the
- 10:38Speaker 1: shower for too long. She was like, oh, this is
- 10:40Speaker 1: a little bit dad in here. So she comes in
- 10:42Speaker 1: and she sees me asleep on the toilet. I got
- 10:44Speaker 1: in so much trouble, but I really feel like she
- 10:45Speaker 1: wanted to laugh. It's like, what the fuck did I
- 10:49Speaker 1: was just like knocked out.
- 10:50Speaker 4: Like I tried to do the when I was like, oh,
- 10:55Speaker 4: I'm sick, I can't go to school today. I tried
- 10:57Speaker 4: to do the thing where you put the thermometer to
- 11:00Speaker 4: the lamp and it would say that you.
- 11:02Speaker 1: Had like one hundred and two fever, but it didn't change.
- 11:04Speaker 4: It was ninety eight point six and I was like
- 11:06Speaker 4: put pressing it onto the light bulb and it never
- 11:09Speaker 4: changed temperature, and I was like, fuck, I thought.
- 11:12Speaker 2: I was gonna get too hot, and she was gonna
- 11:13Speaker 2: come in and be like, you.
- 11:15Speaker 1: Was five hundred degrees are you like shipped off to
- 11:18Speaker 1: the hospital. But no, it just didn't work at all.
- 11:20Speaker 1: So that's bullshit. Nice a lot movies. You taught me nothing,
- 11:24Speaker 1: you guys.
- 11:24Speaker 5: I was such a good nerdy kid, like I just
- 11:27Speaker 5: never broke a rule in my life. Oh my god,
- 11:31Speaker 5: I live in fear of getting yelled at. Like I
- 11:33Speaker 5: just remember, like when we would be in math class
- 11:35Speaker 5: and the kids would be like messing around too much,
- 11:37Speaker 5: like she's gonna yell just stop it, like she's gonna
- 11:39Speaker 5: yell stop it.
- 11:40Speaker 1: Oh my god.
- 11:41Speaker 4: I was like, and I got suspended because I plagiarized
- 11:43Speaker 4: to paper in high school. So and the only reason
- 11:47Speaker 4: they caught me is because this other person who's like
- 11:49Speaker 4: an absolute piece of shit, different podcast time and place,
- 11:53Speaker 4: he plagiarized the same paper, Dann, So we got caught,
- 11:56Speaker 4: but I was diagnosed ADHD. So I was being scammed
- 11:59Speaker 4: myself by.
- 11:59Speaker 2: My suspension is a little extra, Like, clearly, if you
- 12:05Speaker 2: are stealing papers, you need education. So I just feel
- 12:09Speaker 2: like maybe like im school suspension. I agree, they're giving
- 12:12Speaker 2: you consequences because in college you can get kicked out
- 12:14Speaker 2: of school for that shit. But it's like that's a
- 12:17Speaker 2: little extra, like look, obviously need helped we learn, and
- 12:19Speaker 2: how you.
- 12:20Speaker 4: Go say, I'm in my home and so I was.
- 12:23Speaker 4: I was on student government. This is so stupid.

- 12:35Speaker 4: got kicked off student government. They then really made an
- 12:37Speaker 4: example out of me. But my boyfriend at the time
- 12:40Speaker 4: tried to make it. He wanted to make flyers and
- 12:42Speaker 4: it was like a witch hunt and I was like, dude,
- 12:44Speaker 4: I didn't like I lied on this paper, Like don't
- 12:48Speaker 4: act like they're coming for me, Like they're coming for
- 12:50Speaker 4: me hard.
- 12:51Speaker 1: But I cheated, so like I'm in a little too hard.
- 12:54Speaker 2: It's like, who wouldn't really known you had cheated other
- 12:56Speaker 2: than the administrators, Like we could catch discush out like
- 12:58Speaker 2: I'm a real president.

- 16:42Speaker 2: Champagne big fan of the pot. I'm here for a
- 16:44Speaker 2: submition for what's hot and front, all right. I live
- 16:47Speaker 2: in Vancouver, Canada. Today, I'm pretty sure I was scammed
- 16:50Speaker 2: by my dentists, and I'm not sure how to feel
- 16:52Speaker 2: about it. Here's how it went. So I went to
- 16:53Speaker 2: see my dentist for a routine checkup. I flys every day.
- 16:55Speaker 2: I go to regular appointments every six months like most folks.
- 16:58Speaker 1: Okay, come on mouth what you never have a clean
- 17:02Speaker 1: ass mouth? She said, hoppy in my mouth?
- 17:04Speaker 2: Every day I put tied in it game for breeze,
- 17:07Speaker 2: I put fabrics offt on it in my mouth.
- 17:08Speaker 1: The bitch is clean, Okay.
- 17:10Speaker 6: I love it.
- 17:12Speaker 2: So Usually a regular cleaning and exam takes more no
- 17:14Speaker 2: more than an hour, and I was able to get
- 17:16Speaker 2: everything done X rays, exams, cleaning, fluoride, et cetera.
- 17:18Speaker 3: But today something strange happened.
- 17:20Speaker 1: Oohol for a piece of change.
- 17:26Speaker 2: My digital hygienist was doing her thing and she finished
- 17:28Speaker 2: cleaning the bottom half of my teeth, and she moved
- 17:30Speaker 2: onto the top half. She cleaned maybe three of my
- 17:32Speaker 2: top teeth and decided to call it quits. She told
- 17:35Speaker 2: me I have to come back for another appointment the
- 17:37Speaker 2: next week to finish the top half. She was also
- 17:39Speaker 2: emphasizing that visiting every six months is not enough and
- 17:41Speaker 2: told me that everyone should visit the dentists every three
- 17:44Speaker 2: months for a cleaning.
- 17:45Speaker 1: So I'm gonna stop there.
- 17:47Speaker 2: I do have friends who go every three months, and
- 17:49Speaker 2: I think I'm gonna start going every three months because
- 17:51Speaker 2: I was trifling. I will share I think I might
- 17:54Speaker 2: have already shared this, so I'm not gonna get to
- 17:55Speaker 2: it and deep into it.
- 17:56Speaker 1: But I can't remember.
- 17:58Speaker 2: But I got a new dentist, and obviously when the
- 18:00Speaker 2: pandemic happened, I was not trying to have my mouth
- 18:02Speaker 2: open in front of strangers.
- 18:03Speaker 1: That just felt very dangerous.
- 18:05Speaker 2: I've never gotten COVID, knock on wood, and if I
- 18:08Speaker 2: get COVID, like they'll be like, hey girl, jobs.
- 18:11Speaker 1: Like don't go.
- 18:13Speaker 6: Yeah yeah.
- 18:14Speaker 2: Like I feel like if I got COVID, because I
- 18:16Speaker 2: get tested every day at work, they throw a bag
- 18:17Speaker 2: over my head and throw me into a vein, you.
- 18:19Speaker 1: Know, get out of here.
- 18:21Speaker 2: I get that nasty bit chat of hair, like you
- 18:24Speaker 2: know yeah, And so I understood, like I didn't want
- 18:29Speaker 2: to go. So then when COVID kind of like I
- 18:31Speaker 2: got vaccinated, everything was getting a little bit more chill.
- 18:33Speaker 2: I was like, Okay, let me set to these dental
- 18:35Speaker 2: plumbs because your girl's down bad.
- 18:37Speaker 3: I had one tooth that was hurting real bad.
- 18:39Speaker 2: I had one tooth that like, if I ate anything
- 18:41Speaker 2: sweet and I didn't brush right after, it would be
- 18:44Speaker 2: like hey girl, like.
- 18:46Speaker 7: Just like hey girl, hey y'all, it's me.
- 18:48Speaker 1: Your nerves.
- 18:52Speaker 6: Have such bad. I have terrible teeth.
- 18:54Speaker 5: I've had the worst like teeth problems my whole entire life.
- 18:58Speaker 5: But when I was like younger and I didn't have
- 18:59Speaker 5: health insurance, I had one tooth that hurts so bad.
- 19:02Speaker 5: I was literally grinding up like advil and rubbing it
- 19:07Speaker 5: directly onto the tooth that bad. Yeah it did, I
- 19:10Speaker 5: mean like it worked, but it made it worse because then,
- 19:14Speaker 5: like you, I didn't get I like couldn't afford the
- 19:16Speaker 5: root canal or whatever, and then so like it just
- 19:18Speaker 5: keeps getting worse and worse worse, until I ended up
- 19:20Speaker 5: in the emergency room at Bellevue. The Bellevue Hospital in
- 19:25Speaker 5: New York, they have like an emergency dental area, And
- 19:29Speaker 5: I'll never forget the dentist numbing my mouth, putting his
- 19:33Speaker 5: foot up on the chair and ripping the tooth out
- 19:37Speaker 5: of my mouth, and hearing all of the cracking and
- 19:40Speaker 5: breaking he had embraced his foot on the chair to
- 19:45Speaker 5: rip the tooth. I feel, I know, I know, I'll
- 19:53Speaker 5: tell you it didn't hurt though, Like he did a
- 19:56Speaker 5: good job. He numbed me up and it didn't hurt.
- 19:58Speaker 5: But like just the hearing of that sound. Oh, I'll
- 20:01Speaker 5: never forget it.
- 20:01Speaker 4: And I asked you what year this was, because I
- 20:03Speaker 4: lived across the street. I used to live on twenty ninth.
- 20:05Speaker 5: At first, I mean, it would have been fifteen years ago.
- 20:08Speaker 5: So I can't do that, belfew.
- 20:10Speaker 3: Because that just as though that was giving like.
- 20:12Speaker 1: It's like the dentist from a little shop of hers, what
- 20:14Speaker 1: the hell racing himself? He got one leg on the wall,
- 20:18Speaker 1: he got one, and then he got on.
- 20:21Speaker 4: I was gonna say, I can picture it, I can
- 20:24Speaker 4: see it.
- 20:25Speaker 6: Oh God, God.
- 20:27Speaker 2: She did not like you guys the Jaws A life
- 20:29Speaker 2: basic accident.
- 20:32Speaker 5: But then years later I went to a fancy dentist
- 20:34Speaker 5: for another procedure and she gave me that the laughing
- 20:37Speaker 5: gas that they give you, and she gave me so much.
- 20:41Speaker 5: I was so fucked up, and I remember my eyes
- 20:44Speaker 5: were closed and I felt myself starting to like drift away,
- 20:47Speaker 5: because you know, you don't go to sleep with that
- 20:49Speaker 5: that just like makes you happy. And I remember being
- 20:52Speaker 5: so fucked up on laughing gas and saying the words,
- 20:56Speaker 5: I have to stay alive for Daisy.
- 20:57Speaker 6: I have to stay alive. That's my daughter.
- 21:01Speaker 2: No, you're not supposed to be seeing God when you
- 21:03Speaker 2: go to the dinners.
- 21:04Speaker 1: You're not supposed to.
- 21:04Speaker 2: Be like, hey, sous is that you and you're not
- 21:08Speaker 2: supposed to see him when you go to dinner, but
- 21:11Speaker 2: fancy that. Just Sometimes they'll run it up if they're like,
- 21:13Speaker 2: oh you got insurance, okay, bitch, so we actually gonna
- 21:16Speaker 2: give you some anesthesia and some laughing gas and we're
- 21:19Speaker 2: gonna numb the area, and also like would you like
- 21:22Speaker 2: a boob job?
- 21:23Speaker 3: And it's like, hey, y'all do that?
- 21:25Speaker 6: No ship like what and I'm like yes to all.
- 21:29Speaker 1: And they said pity o.
- 21:32Speaker 6: And put the skate ski mask on. It was like
- 21:35Speaker 6: run it up.
- 21:36Speaker 2: I do want to say, though, a little scam, which okay,
- 21:39Speaker 2: only if you're in dire straints.
- 21:41Speaker 6: Guys.
- 21:42Speaker 2: If there's universities schools dental schools in your area, you
- 21:46Speaker 2: can sign up and should do it preemptively to have
- 21:49Speaker 2: dentists who are in dds school and they'll clean your
- 21:53Speaker 2: teeth for you. They'll like fix, they'll do root canals
- 21:56Speaker 2: for free, all the stuff for free. Sometimes it's like
- 21:58Speaker 2: a menial charge that they'll charge, but it's way way
- 22:00Speaker 2: way cheaper. If you do not have insurance to go
- 22:03Speaker 2: to look up your local colleges try to find the
- 22:05Speaker 2: abyss one though, and why are you dental school?
- 22:08Speaker 6: They have that here in New York.
- 22:10Speaker 4: I never heard of doing that for haircuts, and that's
- 22:13Speaker 4: hairy enough.
- 22:14Speaker 1: But like a dentist.
- 22:16Speaker 4: The last time I had like a big dental thing,
- 22:18Speaker 4: it was my wisdom teeth getting taken out a thousand
- 22:21Speaker 4: years ago, and they were like impacted and upside down
- 22:24Speaker 4: and all this crazy stuff.
- 22:25Speaker 1: But they like they knocked me out. So there's like
- 22:27Speaker 1: a needle in my arm for the anesthesia.
- 22:29Speaker 4: And apparently when when kids are like teenagers, this is
- 22:33Speaker 4: a thing that happened, or maybe this was yet another
- 22:35Speaker 4: scam and I didn't realize it.
- 22:37Speaker 1: I woke up with track marks all over my.
- 22:39Speaker 4: Arm because the dentist was like, oh, yeah, yeah, people
- 22:42Speaker 4: your age, when they're under they rip out like without
- 22:46Speaker 4: like unconsciously rip out the needles in the arm. I
- 22:50Speaker 4: got that this happened when I was I was incredibly
- 22:54Speaker 4: underweight at the time, like scary skinny in the middle
- 22:57Speaker 4: of the summer, So no long sleeves walking around with
- 23:00Speaker 4: track marks on bobs because of my fucking with some teeth.
- 23:03Speaker 6: Now wait a.
- 23:04Speaker 3: Minute, both your arms they had needles in both your arms.
- 23:06Speaker 4: Well, because I kept ripping it out, and so they
- 23:08Speaker 4: would try the other arm and then I would rip
- 23:10Speaker 4: it out like as I was under, And I'm like,
- 23:12Speaker 4: is this real?
- 23:12Speaker 1: Or could you just not find a vein? Like what's
- 23:14Speaker 1: happening here? I feel like somebody couldn't find a vein?
- 23:17Speaker 6: Bro.
- 23:17Speaker 2: I really feel like I will say this about dentistry,
- 23:20Speaker 2: and if you're a DDS, like, I'm so sorry, because
- 23:22Speaker 2: you know, i'd be shady towards y'all. I swear to god,
- 23:24Speaker 2: they'd be letting anybody have a DDS. You gotta look
- 23:27Speaker 2: at reviews. You really gotta check because it'd be people
- 23:29Speaker 2: in here just drilling on your nerve like Bob the
- 23:31Speaker 2: Builder having I was crying and Combulston in the chair.
- 23:34Speaker 1: I swear to god, I'm gonna find that dentist. I'm
- 23:36Speaker 1: gonna ruin her. I don't remember her name, but I
- 23:37Speaker 1: will ruin her one day, because let's say that fuck me.
- 23:40Speaker 6: It's like dentists. She's serious.
- 23:43Speaker 5: If you if you're the Airbnb of dentist, She's never
- 23:46Speaker 5: gonna forget that.
- 23:47Speaker 6: She's never gonna forget.
- 23:49Speaker 2: So Champagne minion Net says, you know the cleaning stopped abruptly.
- 23:53Speaker 1: They did four teeth on the.
- 23:54Speaker 2: Top, and was like, I I'm good so knowing that
- 23:57Speaker 2: she's not going to finish the cleaning my teeth like
- 24:00Speaker 2: this appointment, I made an appointment to come back the
- 24:02Speaker 2: next week. When I saw the bill, I saw that
- 24:03Speaker 2: they charged me two full price cleanings. Like, hello, you
- 24:07Speaker 2: did half the job and expect me to pay for
- 24:09Speaker 2: the whole thing and come back twice as often. I'm
- 24:11Speaker 2: pretty sure she was scamming at this point. What kind
- 24:13Speaker 2: of hygienis would only do half of your teeth for
- 24:15Speaker 2: an appointment and then ask you to come back for
- 24:17Speaker 2: the other half, then charge you double the price for
- 24:19Speaker 2: the job. I hope this had I hope y'all have
- 24:21Speaker 2: more of a backbone than me. Tell your hygienis no,
- 24:23Speaker 2: I will have all my teeth cleaned and one appointment. Please,
- 24:27Speaker 2: yes this I feel like because of the pandemic, Dennis
- 24:30Speaker 2: got hit hard.
- 24:31Speaker 1: Yes, because it's like an open mouth thing.
- 24:33Speaker 2: People are like, I'm not going to open my mouth
- 24:35Speaker 2: up to y'all and get her sauce all in my
- 24:36Speaker 2: mouth and my.
- 24:37Speaker 6: Thought and whatnot. I don't want your murders pray in
- 24:41Speaker 6: my mouth, get.
- 24:41Speaker 2: Out of here, right, It's like it's like facials and
- 24:44Speaker 2: like things that were like that, Like I see that
- 24:47Speaker 2: they probably were down bad.
- 24:48Speaker 1: Yeah, obviously this person was.
- 24:50Speaker 2: Like because here's the thing, it would be different because
- 24:53Speaker 2: I did get half of my mouth cleaned and one
- 24:55Speaker 2: tooth extracted, and I had.
- 24:56Speaker 3: To go back for the other half.
- 24:57Speaker 2: To be deep cleaned and then teeth because they're really
- 25:01Speaker 2: not doing the whole. We take out all of your
- 25:03Speaker 2: wisdom teeth anymore at once because they push you down
- 25:05Speaker 2: for a while and I have to work, So I
- 25:07Speaker 2: get that. But if you numbed me top and bottom
- 25:11Speaker 2: and then you just cleaned a little bit of the top,
- 25:13Speaker 2: like that's a scam.
- 25:14Speaker 1: Like, yeah, that isn't real.
- 25:17Speaker 4: That is Champagne's problems, right, come on, sorry is it?
- 25:24Speaker 2: Because I feel like, obviously this person is using insurance,
- 25:26Speaker 2: and normally even good insurance, they're gonna give you like
- 25:28Speaker 2: one cleaning every six months, like two X rays a year,
- 25:32Speaker 2: Like you have to pay out of pocket if you
- 25:33Speaker 2: go every three months. It's good for your mouth.
- 25:35Speaker 5: But yeah, yeah, every three months, that sounds like a lot.
- 25:39Speaker 6: I've never heard that.
- 25:40Speaker 1: That's your stub on it I to do it.
- 25:43Speaker 2: And the thing is is like it'll prevent you from
- 25:45Speaker 2: getting cavities a lot. Like if you have a good
- 25:48Speaker 2: routine and you go every three months, it'll prevent like
- 25:52Speaker 2: some bad shit from popping off in your mouth.
- 25:54Speaker 4: Yeah, And I bet if you keep it up and
- 25:56Speaker 4: go every three months, the appointments aren't as long if
- 25:58Speaker 4: you go everything months, like it's more of an upkeep
- 26:01Speaker 4: kind of situation.
- 26:02Speaker 2: And I didn't go for like a year and a half,
- 26:05Speaker 2: maybe two years. And when I went in, I tell you,
- 26:07Speaker 2: they did the x rays and like I have like
- 26:09Speaker 2: a nice front facing smile, but their ship going on
- 26:11Speaker 2: in the back there. It was like, honestly, when they start,
- 26:16Speaker 2: like my dentists did the extra or the hygienist did
- 26:19Speaker 2: the X rays. The dentist came in and he just started,
- 26:21Speaker 2: I only go to Dinnis in Beverly Hills because I
- 26:23Speaker 2: need your rent to be high enough that you can't
- 26:24Speaker 2: fuck me up, and that you're not. I mean I
- 26:27Speaker 2: came in they had but let's siaga pillows. I say, yes, okay,
- 26:30Speaker 2: so y'all gonna do me dirty because y'all need y'all
- 26:33Speaker 2: coins to pay this rent.
- 26:36Speaker 1: So he was like sighing very heavily. He's like looking
- 26:40Speaker 1: at my X rays. He was like, oh, how did
- 26:42Speaker 1: it get this bad?
- 26:43Speaker 6: And like, oh my god, whatever.
- 26:44Speaker 1: I cried.
- 26:45Speaker 2: I cried a little bit at the Dinnis office because
- 26:47Speaker 2: like when I tell you, they shamed the funk out
- 26:49Speaker 2: of me, Like I felt like the dirtiest bitch.
- 26:50Speaker 3: And I was like, I mean, it's all bullshit.
- 26:53Speaker 6: It's all to scare you.
- 26:54Speaker 1: It's like fear mongering to get you to go every
- 26:56Speaker 1: three months.
- 26:57Speaker 2: He was like a woman your age, like you should
- 27:00Speaker 2: own in your mouth right now, like you're so young,
- 27:03Speaker 2: Like what happened? Like he really, wait, yeah, I feel
- 27:06Speaker 2: like I was with a Yan. Look I feel like
- 27:08Speaker 2: I was with Yalla fixed my teeth And he was
- 27:10Speaker 2: literally like you need to look at this photo of
- 27:12Speaker 2: Harriet Tubman and explain why you're not flossing every day,
- 27:15Speaker 2: Like it hurt me.
- 27:18Speaker 6: Oh my god. It's just the part where we talk
- 27:19Speaker 6: about a Ya love for forty five minutes.
- 27:22Speaker 1: Yeah, I can get back into this because people.
- 27:24Speaker 5: Oh god, I love a Yon love and sance more
- 27:27Speaker 5: than she love her.
- 27:28Speaker 1: Her skin is so good.
- 27:31Speaker 2: I'll never forget when she had a black man who
- 27:33Speaker 2: had like he had like fifteen sixteen kids, and so
- 27:36Speaker 2: she gave him a bunch of baby dolls to hold
- 27:40Speaker 2: and like all these different little black baby dolls, right,
- 27:42Speaker 2: and she was like, do you see do you see
- 27:44Speaker 2: how you cannot I can really father this many children
- 27:48Speaker 2: and give them love and support.
- 27:49Speaker 3: You can't even hold all these babies.
- 27:50Speaker 2: And then the camera pants and there's one baby face
- 27:53Speaker 2: down on the floor and she.
- 27:54Speaker 1: Was like, see that was that was on the grass?
- 27:57Speaker 1: Like you're a therapy? Is this?
- 27:59Speaker 6: You're yan love voice is really good?
- 28:01Speaker 5: My husband does it too, because remember when she scammed Oprah.
- 28:05Speaker 5: Remember when a Yanla scammed Oprah because Oprah was trying
- 28:08Speaker 5: to give her a show.

- 30:23Speaker 3: Everybody who became friends with her ended up down bad.
- 30:26Speaker 3: Like one of her friends. She was like a hot girl.

- 31:06Speaker 6: That's not cool.
- 31:07Speaker 2: No, he would take advantage of anyone around him. He
- 31:09Speaker 2: became most known for scandal surrounding a memorial stone project
- 31:13Speaker 2: commemorating missing and murdered women in British Columbia.
- 31:15Speaker 1: However, the scam is only.
- 31:17Speaker 2: The final chapter of the story that stretches back further
- 31:19Speaker 2: so his early life. So Kirkham spent much of his
- 31:22Speaker 2: early life with his mother in Hay River, Canada, before
- 31:25Speaker 2: moving to Montreal with an adopted family. At sixteen, He
- 31:27Speaker 2: ran away from home when his surrogate parents found out
- 31:29Speaker 2: that he was gay.
- 31:32Speaker 3: He's gay, Yeah, he's yeah.
- 31:34Speaker 6: Goddamn it.
- 31:35Speaker 1: I like to say, g igh gay. He's gay.
- 31:38Speaker 2: Yeah, And he moved to New York City, Great place
- 31:41Speaker 2: to go gay in nineteen ninety, where he lived on
- 31:44Speaker 2: the streets. After several months, Kirkham found a job as
- 31:47Speaker 2: a busboy at Club USA, owned by New York nightlife
- 31:50Speaker 2: king Peter Geishen.
- 31:53Speaker 1: Yes.
- 31:53Speaker 2: Shortly after Kirkham's rival, he and a bouncer robbed a
- 31:56Speaker 2: drug dealer by pretending to be security and taking everything
- 31:59Speaker 2: that he had.
- 32:00Speaker 6: Ad is this Peter, that's Peter Geisha.
- 32:05Speaker 1: He got is that or he really? That's real?
- 32:10Speaker 4: Yeah?
- 32:10Speaker 6: I don't remember.
- 32:11Speaker 5: Remember the Limelight movie with Macaulay Culkin and Party Monster, Yes.
- 32:16Speaker 1: And Money. Dylan McDermott played Peter gashon Peter Geish.
- 32:23Speaker 3: Yeah, we need to do Party Monster because I've heard
- 32:26Speaker 3: that story.
- 32:26Speaker 4: Is oh my god, close to Indie's in it. I mean,
- 32:29Speaker 4: not the real story. I mean she probably was. She
- 32:31Speaker 4: was a club kid back in the day. But she's
- 32:32Speaker 4: also in the movie.
- 32:34Speaker 5: Yeah, Michael, uh is it? Michael Allen al Michael alec
- 32:38Speaker 5: is dead now. He got out of prison and then
- 32:40Speaker 5: he died and I like new people who knew him,
- 32:44Speaker 5: and he was they were like, he's not really any
- 32:46Speaker 5: fun to be around anymore.
- 32:47Speaker 6: And then he died.
- 32:48Speaker 1: Damn.
- 32:49Speaker 4: He's also a murderer, by the way. Yeah, we forget her.
- 32:53Speaker 1: Yeah, so you know, not the greatest dude.
- 32:56Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 32:57Speaker 3: Shortly after Kirk's arrival, he in the boutley.
- 32:59Speaker 2: They robbed somebody, right, and they were like, we're bouncers
- 33:01Speaker 2: and he's tall, right, so like if you're getting tall,
- 33:04Speaker 2: you're giving bouncer. Like totally robbed the drug dealer, and
- 33:08Speaker 2: the bouncer kept all the coke and Kirkham kept the money,
- 33:11Speaker 2: a symbiotic relationship that would go on to hell sustain
- 33:13Speaker 2: Kirkham's life in New York City.
- 33:15Speaker 3: I love that he was like, you keep the blow
- 33:17Speaker 3: and I keeping the money.
- 33:19Speaker 4: Yeah, it's a mutually beneficial right transaction.
- 33:23Speaker 5: Also, just like, robbing a drug dealer is just not
- 33:26Speaker 5: a smart way.
- 33:27Speaker 6: It's just not a smart thing to know.
- 33:28Speaker 1: It's not.
- 33:29Speaker 2: But you know, like if you're the drug dealer, you're
- 33:32Speaker 2: at the lowest level of drugs, so the drug dealer
- 33:35Speaker 2: got to take that ill.
- 33:36Speaker 3: It's not like they robbed the kingpin.
- 33:39Speaker 2: So he was eventually fired, but not before meeting Michael
- 33:42Speaker 2: Alig and Peter Gaishen himself. Kirkham's firing prompted him to
- 33:46Speaker 2: move to Miami, where he was then hired by the
- 33:47Speaker 2: FBI for his ability to worm his way into night
- 33:50Speaker 2: life clubs, parties aka magnets for high level criminals. One biographer,
- 33:54Speaker 2: Frank Owen, described Kirkham as the guy lied constantly about everything.
- 33:58Speaker 2: I mean literally everything. I like Sean because he was
- 34:02Speaker 2: really charming, but you know, he was not a good person.
- 34:04Speaker 2: He just did really bad things to people.
- 34:07Speaker 3: So I love that. You're like, he was a bad guy.
- 34:09Speaker 2: He lied about everything, and like every little thing.
- 34:13Speaker 1: It's like, like, what else is he lying about?
- 34:16Speaker 2: He's like, hey, y'all, I can't make it to work
- 34:18Speaker 2: because the sky is purple, Like what is he lie
- 34:20Speaker 2: about that?
- 34:20Speaker 5: It's just like, I also love that he found Like
- 34:24Speaker 5: he's a bad gay and he found all the other
- 34:26Speaker 5: bad gays.
- 34:27Speaker 6: Yeah, he found each other.
- 34:29Speaker 1: They could swell their own. I guess your time, find
- 34:32Speaker 1: your tribes.
- 34:33Speaker 4: It goes down to like tunnel and limelight, cool story, a.
- 34:37Speaker 2: Shitty people in the world. You just got to shore
- 34:39Speaker 2: your person. They said to somebody for everybody. So if
- 34:41Speaker 2: you ask, she's probably somebody else out there who's asked too?
- 34:44Speaker 3: And y'all get together, be asked together. Love that for y'all.
- 34:48Speaker 2: So one night, while partying in Miami, Kirkham stole Madonna's
- 34:51Speaker 2: home phone number from a director's address book at the club.
- 34:54Speaker 6: Oh my god, yeah, and did he call her?
- 35:00Speaker 2: He showed it off and then sold the entire book
- 35:03Speaker 2: to promoters who used it to call celebrities like Bianca
- 35:05Speaker 2: Jagger and Liam Neeson invite them to their parties.
- 35:08Speaker 1: Like Liam Neeson is showing up to your party.
- 35:11Speaker 2: He might remember when he said he was out here
- 35:12Speaker 2: looking to beat up in any black man because his friend.
- 35:15Speaker 1: All right, my black man, he's probably a black man.
- 35:18Speaker 1: I have a very special skit set. Excuse let me
- 35:21Speaker 1: go to this neck clup. See if this black man man.
- 35:23Speaker 6: It's also just like Liam Neeson. You made it so far.
- 35:27Speaker 5: Just stay quiet and you could have like rode off
- 35:30Speaker 5: into the sunset as like one of the greats, and
- 35:32Speaker 5: you just had to fucking blow it in the end.
- 35:34Speaker 1: Girls, we loved when he.
- 35:37Speaker 3: Was next chopping everybody.
- 35:38Speaker 1: You didn't have a volunteer disinformation.
- 35:40Speaker 3: Nobody found it.
- 35:41Speaker 1: Now nobody knew. Yeah, you don't have to tell us.
- 35:44Speaker 4: That's like Sean Connery that famous Barbara Walter's interview where
- 35:48Speaker 4: she's like, do you love still believe what you said
- 35:50Speaker 4: about how sometimes it's okay to hit a woman, and
- 35:52Speaker 4: he's like, oh yeah, no, no, no, it's like all like
- 35:54Speaker 4: for sure, always okay, always to hit a woman.
- 35:56Speaker 1: And it's like Sean, oh my god, shay, yeah, you
- 36:00Speaker 1: put a backtracked and said, no, Barbara, I've learned my lesson.
- 36:03Speaker 4: That was a horrible thing for me to say that
- 36:06Speaker 4: their filo facts to the club. I wonder, I know,
- 36:09Speaker 4: why is this like address book, this valuable, valuable address
- 36:12Speaker 4: book just like strewn about.
- 36:14Speaker 2: Right, It's the nineties, though, he know if he was
- 36:16Speaker 2: gonna have to be at a payphone and be like, hey.
- 36:18Speaker 1: Monomahoo, hey mad.
- 36:21Speaker 5: If I'm like nineteen early nineteen nineties, Liam Neeson and
- 36:24Speaker 5: I'm just now finding out that I was in the
- 36:25Speaker 5: same address book as Madonna.
- 36:27Speaker 6: That's a good day for early nineties.
- 36:29Speaker 2: Yeah, because he was a neck chopping at that point,
- 36:32Speaker 2: so you know, this is kind of nice. So the
- 36:35Speaker 2: takedown of the Liblaine So in nineteen ninety five, Kirkham
- 36:38Speaker 2: returned to New York City and offered his services to
- 36:40Speaker 2: the DEA.
- 36:40Speaker 1: I love that.
- 36:41Speaker 2: The government was like, this is our dude, Like, you
- 36:43Speaker 2: love him.
- 36:46Speaker 1: This is before Twitter.
- 36:47Speaker 2: The FBI got Twitter now, so they just be getting
- 36:49Speaker 2: all the they'd be like, confess, oh they tweeted, Okay,
- 36:51Speaker 2: let's go to the house. But this is before Twitter.
- 36:54Speaker 2: So he was just like, all right, we just got
- 36:56Speaker 2: kurk him. He gonna go in and he also does crime,
- 36:58Speaker 2: but we're gonna let that slide because, you know, because.
- 37:02Speaker 6: He's the tallest gay around.
- 37:04Speaker 1: We needed we need him.
- 37:06Speaker 2: So the DA immediately hopped on the opportunity and employed him,
- 37:09Speaker 2: taking down the city's most popular clubs at the time,
- 37:12Speaker 2: Peter Geishen's Limelight Club, where Andy Warhol and other nineties
- 37:15Speaker 2: celebrities used to party.
- 37:17Speaker 1: So this club looks like a church.
- 37:20Speaker 6: Yes, that was, yeah, it was. It's a gym. Now
- 37:25Speaker 6: was it was like a shopping sent No, it was.
- 37:27Speaker 3: I've been here.
- 37:27Speaker 1: It was a clothing store or something. At this point,
- 37:29Speaker 1: I've been to the clothing store.
- 37:31Speaker 6: Yeah, Limelight is pretty badass.
- 37:33Speaker 5: Actually, Like when it was a nightclub and you went
- 37:34Speaker 5: into the nightclub and it was a church like that,
- 37:37Speaker 5: it was pretty amazing.
- 37:38Speaker 6: It was a pretty amazing spot right.
- 37:40Speaker 3: It's giving. Look, you can drop it low for jesus.
- 37:43Speaker 2: You know, I was talked about that on another episode,
- 37:45Speaker 2: so I'm not mad at it. So due to the
- 37:47Speaker 2: high profile nature of the Limelight and the subsequent drugs
- 37:50Speaker 2: flowing through it, Gaish was the perfect scapegoat for Mayor
- 37:53Speaker 2: Rudy Giuliani's tough on crime campaign, which I love that
- 37:56Speaker 2: Rudy Giuliani was tough on crime, also doing crime. His
- 37:58Speaker 2: daughter was shopped. Love God, I have no crap because
- 38:01Speaker 2: I do it. Wait did I say that?
- 38:05Speaker 1: Take that out?
- 38:06Speaker 2: We have? Okay, okay, exactly, Julia really fucked up his
- 38:11Speaker 2: ship because he is like copping. People loved him America's
- 38:15Speaker 2: mayor after eleven?
- 38:16Speaker 6: Are you kidding me? I know how you go fuck
- 38:18Speaker 6: that up?
- 38:18Speaker 3: How you got a whole like I'll never forget tragedy.
- 38:21Speaker 2: And now now you at the fucking press conferences out
- 38:25Speaker 2: outside the lawn care center.
- 38:27Speaker 1: Oh my god, my hair.
- 38:30Speaker 4: Landscaping, Total Landscaping its fucking garbage through and through that
- 38:36Speaker 4: four seasons.
- 38:37Speaker 2: Total Landscaping had to have known that they meant the
- 38:39Speaker 2: right four seasons and was like, no, yeah, you could
- 38:41Speaker 2: book us.
- 38:42Speaker 4: I loved that, like so many people were in on
- 38:44Speaker 4: that to just make them look so stupid.
- 38:46Speaker 5: It was great that story was it just kept on
- 38:49Speaker 5: giving that story.
- 38:50Speaker 6: He was leaking hair dye, remember that. Oh yeah.
- 38:53Speaker 4: It was like just the one year anniversary of four
- 38:55Speaker 4: seasons total landscaping.
- 38:56Speaker 1: It was all over my timeline again because everyone was.
- 38:59Speaker 4: Like this was this, This was only a year ago
- 39:02Speaker 4: and also fifty years ago.
- 39:04Speaker 2: So Kirka was one of three main informants working for
- 39:06Speaker 2: the DA this they supplied evidence of limelight shady dealings.
- 39:10Speaker 2: Michael Algae was the one of the others before he
- 39:13Speaker 2: was arrested for the murder of Angel Melndez. So he
- 39:16Speaker 2: was helping the DEA and then they were like, wait
- 39:17Speaker 2: a man name, hey, anybody the ena.
- 39:21Speaker 5: Michael Alex murdered Angel and then chopped him up and
- 39:24Speaker 5: put him in a box in his living room where
- 39:26Speaker 5: it stayed for days on end before he took it
- 39:29Speaker 5: in a taxi and threw the box into the Hudson
- 39:32Speaker 5: River with the help of the taxi driver.
- 39:35Speaker 4: It's a horrible, horrible, it is really bad.
- 39:39Speaker 1: He murderer.
- 39:40Speaker 3: Murderer.
- 39:42Speaker 5: Yeah, they were literally in Michael Alex's living room with
- 39:45Speaker 5: their feet on the box being like, then let's see
- 39:47Speaker 5: an angel.
- 39:47Speaker 4: It's awful, like doing drugs, and everyone was so fucked
- 39:51Speaker 4: up that was coming in and out of it that
- 39:52Speaker 4: they were like oh ha ha ha. Like he would
- 39:54Speaker 4: just be like, oh yeah, I killed him and chopped
- 39:55Speaker 4: him up, and everyone's like, oh, Michael passed the blow.
- 39:58Speaker 4: You're hilarious, Like another, yeah, amazing, right.
- 40:01Speaker 2: Like why are you I'm not hanging out with No,
- 40:03Speaker 2: murder's lazy, It's it's a banana story.
- 40:08Speaker 7: It's no, I'm not gonna be next exactly exactly, Yeah,
- 40:14Speaker 7: I don't understand.
- 40:14Speaker 2: So, instead of waiting to be arrested for his own
- 40:16Speaker 2: illicited dealings of which the DA handlers were aware, Kirkham
- 40:19Speaker 2: began an escape plan. He started recording meetings with his
- 40:22Speaker 2: handlers and then contracted Gaishen's legal team to offer to
- 40:25Speaker 2: sell them confidential details of the case to make some
- 40:27Speaker 2: money before he fled the country with this Canadian passport. However,
- 40:30Speaker 2: the double crosser was double cross when Gaisen's legal team,
- 40:33Speaker 2: knowing that Kirkham's plan was entirely illegal, contacted the prosecution
- 40:37Speaker 2: and set up a sting. So they were like, we're
- 40:39Speaker 2: gonna cross you because actually, we need to the charges
- 40:41Speaker 2: are bad on our side.
- 40:42Speaker 1: So we down bank.
- 40:46Speaker 2: We actually so we're gonna tell the DA you cuz
- 40:50Speaker 2: we got.
- 40:50Speaker 1: Murders that we gotta deal with.
- 40:52Speaker 6: Oh my god.
- 40:54Speaker 2: Kirkham immediately made his claims that he was a sex
- 40:56Speaker 2: worker and one of the prosecutors had a sexual relationship
- 40:58Speaker 2: with him, which earned him a charge of lying to
- 41:00Speaker 2: the federal agent. So now he was like, all right, wait, wait, wait,
- 41:03Speaker 2: this needs to be a mistrial because I've been boning yeah.
- 41:10Speaker 3: Asian agent forbes, I've been boning him.
- 41:12Speaker 1: So this all know the.
- 41:14Speaker 6: Boie un I can't believe I don't know this story.
- 41:20Speaker 2: He was found guilty, fled to Vancouver, re arrested, and
- 41:24Speaker 2: sent us to fifty seven months in prison. Ironically, he
- 41:27Speaker 2: was the only person involved in the Limelight case to
- 41:29Speaker 2: be convicted and.
- 41:29Speaker 1: Served any time.
- 41:30Speaker 2: During a later interview in a documentary about the history
- 41:32Speaker 2: of Limelight, Kirkham bizarrely said, if you go back to
- 41:35Speaker 2: the times of the nineteen forties when the Nazis were
- 41:37Speaker 2: on trial in Nuremberg, they said they were doing a job.
- 41:41Speaker 2: That's how I felt. I was doing a job and
- 41:43Speaker 2: getting paid for it.
- 41:44Speaker 3: Now, how do you.
- 41:45Speaker 4: Think what never never compare yourself to the plight of
- 41:51Speaker 4: the Nazi, I mean yeah, never, and.
- 41:53Speaker 2: You thought people we gonna be sympathetic, gona thy like damn,
- 41:57Speaker 2: you know, God, everybody at Ashwitz was really just like
- 42:00Speaker 2: trying to get a chick, like you're acting like ash
- 42:02Speaker 2: was his Amazon.
- 42:03Speaker 5: Like no, right, Oh my god, I cannot believe we've
- 42:09Speaker 5: never covered this.
- 42:10Speaker 6: How do we not know this story or that it.
- 42:12Speaker 4: Was so glossed over in the Party Monster documentary that
- 42:17Speaker 4: we covered because all of the the other major players
- 42:20Speaker 4: in the story are in that documentary.
- 42:22Speaker 1: They probably didn't have enough time.
- 42:24Speaker 6: Look at this, I'm wearing a T shirt that says
- 42:26Speaker 6: Where's my club?
- 42:27Speaker 1: Wow? Love that a fame.
- 42:31Speaker 2: So Kirkham's next chapter began when he met Israeli points
- 42:34Speaker 2: star Drao Barack, also known as the Roman Ragazzi. Kirkham
- 42:39Speaker 2: found Barack's contact information online and tried to hire him
- 42:42Speaker 2: to model for his made up company, The World's My Playground.
- 42:46Speaker 1: Lellc a boot damn and I'm doing air quotes.
- 42:49Speaker 2: A bootinue dam and brokerage firm that also specializes in
- 42:53Speaker 2: special events tuttle wit there So, kirk said that he
- 42:59Speaker 2: was on Michael Kirkham, the son of Baron Graham Kirkham,
- 43:03Speaker 2: founder of the multimillion dollar furniture Empire.
- 43:06Speaker 3: The two continue to exchange emails.
- 43:08Speaker 2: When Kirkham discovered that Barack also had a career as
- 43:11Speaker 2: an aid in the United Nations, Israeli consolate Barack.
- 43:15Speaker 1: Thus he was a model and he was in the consulate. Okay,
- 43:18Speaker 1: they just let anybody do anything.
- 43:19Speaker 6: In the nineties.
- 43:21Speaker 5: I was gonna say that he only got away with
- 43:23Speaker 5: this because it was before the Internet.
- 43:24Speaker 6: But I guess if they're emailing, I guess not.
- 43:27Speaker 2: Yeah, right, but their email like Sarah Jessica Parker is
- 43:29Speaker 2: sex in the City.
- 43:31Speaker 1: Email was fresh.
- 43:32Speaker 6: Yeah, it was real.
- 43:34Speaker 2: That was when AOL was popping. Now it was a
- 43:36Speaker 2: scammy email address. You do that when you sign up
- 43:38Speaker 2: a porn like you.
- 43:39Speaker 1: Don't use AOL.
- 43:40Speaker 3: It's also like mayoel, I know, it's crime.
- 43:44Speaker 5: This was like before people knew that you were supposed
- 43:46Speaker 5: to like spend time on the internet doing a personal
- 43:48Speaker 5: background check on anybody you ever met.
- 43:50Speaker 1: Exactly right.
- 43:52Speaker 2: So Barack's agents found out about the exchange, and, upon
- 43:55Speaker 2: the most basic of searches about Kirkham barred for their contact.
- 43:59Speaker 2: So they did a you know, a little Google or
- 44:01Speaker 2: whatever and they were like, wait, this man is fraudulent.
- 44:03Speaker 3: But it was too late. Kirkham had publicly outed Brock's.
- 44:05Speaker 2: Porn career in an anonymous page six expose, leading to
- 44:08Speaker 2: Barocks firing from the Consulate.
- 44:10Speaker 1: That's fucked up, Yeah, lighting up Consulate.
- 44:13Speaker 6: It's just a little porn. Come on, like you're not.
- 44:16Speaker 4: All invested in your your next porn extravaganza.
- 44:20Speaker 1: Like please work?
- 44:22Speaker 6: Is work?
- 44:23Speaker 2: So like exactly Obviously the Consulate wasn't giving up enough coins,
- 44:27Speaker 2: so so Kirkham then continued to harass Barock and his agent,
- 44:31Speaker 2: even commenting on the page six article over a year
- 44:34Speaker 2: after it's publishing. Colin, your dumbest fuck, come and get me.
- 44:38Speaker 2: Waste your hoe bills made from the Romans ass and
- 44:41Speaker 2: fly to Budapest if that's where you think I am.
- 44:44Speaker 2: I can't wait to meet you in person. You'll never
- 44:47Speaker 2: leave the room alive.
- 44:48Speaker 1: What whoa Oh my god?
- 44:52Speaker 2: You put murder threats like online? He was gonna be
- 44:55Speaker 2: like paper trail. Who did he write that to to?
- 45:00Speaker 6: Oh my god?
- 45:02Speaker 2: And so Barack actually this is sad, but he killed
- 45:05Speaker 2: himself a number of years later for unknown reasons.
- 45:08Speaker 1: I probably think of some reasons.
- 45:10Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 45:11Speaker 2: So in twenty twelve, kirkham blanche the Living Stones, a
- 45:14Speaker 2: project that would have seen sixty two stone plaques placed
- 45:17Speaker 2: at the last locations of murdered and missing women of
- 45:19Speaker 2: British Columbia, many of whom were Indigenous. He used the
- 45:22Speaker 2: funds from the nonprofit that he created called the Canadian
- 45:24Speaker 2: Foundation for Creative Development and Innovation. I love that vagas name.
- 45:28Speaker 5: I say that, what like, that's the Canadian.
- 45:32Speaker 2: Foundation for Stuff and progress and also future in amiens.
- 45:41Speaker 4: Totally not a scam Ellman and t and where on
- 45:45Speaker 4: the up and up LLC.
- 45:47Speaker 2: So in twenty thirteen, only four plaques had been placed,
- 45:50Speaker 2: and many who were involved in the projects said that
- 45:52Speaker 2: they had not been paid for their work.
- 45:53Speaker 1: The plaques themselves are only four by four.
- 45:56Speaker 2: Inches big and embedded into the ground at their location,
- 45:59Speaker 2: often noticed by the people passing over them.
- 46:01Speaker 1: So they're small as hell.
- 46:02Speaker 2: Oh right, this is also asked, Wait can we go
- 46:05Speaker 2: back to that other plaque? This says Heather Bottomly born
- 46:09Speaker 2: August seventeenth, nineteen seventy six, murdered.
- 46:13Speaker 6: Ah oh what also?
- 46:18Speaker 2: I wish she was murdered for what we're supposed to
- 46:21Speaker 2: be like commemorating he was.
- 46:23Speaker 1: Just like she did?
- 46:26Speaker 4: What?
- 46:26Speaker 1: Oh my god? I mean, like we get it, must you.
- 46:29Speaker 4: It's like sometimes being a little vague goes along.
- 46:33Speaker 1: Just say like in memoriam you have to say murdered.
- 46:37Speaker 5: But imagine you are one of the people who actually
- 46:40Speaker 5: does see the plaque. As you're walking over it, you
- 46:42Speaker 5: feel like you're standing on the spot where that murder
- 46:45Speaker 5: took place.
- 46:46Speaker 1: Yeah, Like what murdered?
- 46:48Speaker 3: How murdered?
- 46:49Speaker 4: When?
- 46:49Speaker 3: What are we supposed to be remembering?
- 46:51Speaker 2: Like whatever you do this kind of thing, you know,
- 46:54Speaker 2: like a Holocaust museum or something like that.
- 46:55Speaker 3: The whole point is so that we pay.
- 46:58Speaker 2: Homage and remembrance to these victims, but also so that
- 47:01Speaker 2: we have a reminder that so it doesn't happen again.
- 47:04Speaker 3: How are you gonna be like vague as murdered?
- 47:06Speaker 6: Who murdered her?
- 47:07Speaker 7: Right?
- 47:08Speaker 1: I'm gonna yea is it solved? Like can we help?
- 47:10Speaker 1: What do they need?
- 47:11Speaker 6: Like?
- 47:12Speaker 4: How do we It makes me want to stop in
- 47:14Speaker 4: my tracks and also like get to work, but I
- 47:16Speaker 4: can't because there's no information.
- 47:18Speaker 3: Did they catch a murderer?
- 47:19Speaker 6: Right?
- 47:19Speaker 2: What?
- 47:20Speaker 5: How?
- 47:20Speaker 1: Why?
- 47:20Speaker 4: How outraged do I have to be. Right now, I'd
- 47:23Speaker 4: like to know how angry I need to be?
- 47:26Speaker 1: Seventy six?
- 47:27Speaker 3: They killed her?
- 47:28Speaker 1: Who is they?
- 47:30Speaker 4: What?
- 47:31Speaker 6: And why is there a plaque about it on the sidewalk?
- 47:33Speaker 6: You know what I mean? Like, that's that's the most confused.
- 47:36Speaker 5: If you're just standing there and you look, there should
- 47:38Speaker 5: at least be a QR code that you can hold
- 47:41Speaker 5: your phone.
- 47:41Speaker 6: Over it, and like it takes you to a page
- 47:43Speaker 6: with more.
- 47:43Speaker 1: Information that tells you how angry to be?
- 47:46Speaker 6: Yeah?
- 47:46Speaker 1: Right, Like who was supposed to be?
- 47:48Speaker 6: Mad at?
- 47:48Speaker 1: Who we're supposed to remember? What tragedy should we avoid?
- 47:50Speaker 1: Not just murdered?
- 47:52Speaker 3: They killed her?
- 47:53Speaker 6: Well?
- 47:53Speaker 1: Okay?
- 47:54Speaker 4: What it leads to so many more questions instead of
- 47:57Speaker 4: just giving us information, Now we have fifteen more questions.
- 48:00Speaker 1: Right, this is like she did well? Okay, why did
- 48:04Speaker 1: we need to know what? That's horrible? But where does
- 48:07Speaker 1: the anger go? I need a direction?
- 48:09Speaker 6: Right?
- 48:09Speaker 2: One of the missing women, Caroen Louise Ellis, was murdered
- 48:12Speaker 2: by Canadian serial killer Robert Picketon after her disappearance on
- 48:15Speaker 2: January twenty first, nineteen ninety seven. Kirkham prompted like promised
- 48:19Speaker 2: her relative Lori and Ellis five hundred dollars to travel
- 48:21Speaker 2: to the side of the plaque, which, of course he
- 48:23Speaker 2: never sent.
- 48:24Speaker 1: Ellis said, what.
- 48:25Speaker 7: I ended up, Jos, that's I need a gay gasped Yeah,
- 48:31Speaker 7: well we ended up in return, this is Ellie talking.
- 48:33Speaker 2: Was being in debt and he looked like a hero,
- 48:36Speaker 2: which made me look like a liar. The City of
- 48:39Speaker 2: Vancouver gave Kirkham's foundation seven thousand dollars as a grant
- 48:42Speaker 2: to repair street murals as a part of the project,
- 48:45Speaker 2: but the people who did that work have not been
- 48:47Speaker 2: paid either.
- 48:48Speaker 1: So he was hiring people to do the work.
- 48:49Speaker 3: Then he was like, oh yeah, oh.
- 48:52Speaker 6: Are y'all done?
- 48:53Speaker 3: Are y'all done? Oh y'all finished so fast?
- 48:55Speaker 2: Actually, we do not have a fund yet because you know,
- 48:58Speaker 2: this is a Canadian foundation for freedom and truth and love,
- 49:03Speaker 2: and sometimes the checks come in a little slow.
- 49:06Speaker 1: The sean king of it all, my goodness.
- 49:09Speaker 2: So the City of Vancouver, you know, they gave him
- 49:11Speaker 2: all these coins. He's not paying people out Despite only
- 49:13Speaker 2: completing four plaques. Kirkham abruptly dissolved this foundation and ended
- 49:16Speaker 2: the involvement with the project due to current events in
- 49:19Speaker 2: his life. Another vague as statement, I'm gonna start telling
- 49:21Speaker 2: people when I can't go somewhere girls, current events in
- 49:24Speaker 2: my life.
- 49:26Speaker 5: I would be there and I know, I know, I
- 49:29Speaker 5: know it's your wedding, but due to current.
- 49:31Speaker 1: Events in my life, I am.
- 49:33Speaker 2: Unable to currently Twitter Like, it's just so many current
- 49:37Speaker 2: events that are also in my life. And yeah, I
- 49:41Speaker 2: can't come to your baby shower because.
- 49:44Speaker 1: Currently the events that are transpiring.
- 49:46Speaker 3: Events weren't current, I would be there, but.
- 49:50Speaker 1: Unfortunately, fortunately current happening.
- 49:54Speaker 2: There's many events that are inventing, so I can't come.
- 49:56Speaker 1: You know, I'm so sorry.
- 49:58Speaker 2: So in reality, the city implied that they couldn't trust
- 50:00Speaker 2: Kirkham to finish the project. Kirkham was accused and sued
- 50:03Speaker 2: by the City of Vancouver on the basis of public
- 50:05Speaker 2: scandal and contempt, suffered and continuation of suffering grave damaged
- 50:10Speaker 2: his career and reputation. Okay, so he ultimately pled to
- 50:15Speaker 2: six charges related to the project and sentence he was
- 50:18Speaker 2: like sentenced to house arrests, which I.
- 50:19Speaker 6: Feel like sentence to house arrests.
- 50:22Speaker 2: What he's so tall, you can't put me in like
- 50:24Speaker 2: that in jail. He's he can't go to jail, he's
- 50:29Speaker 2: too tall, short, people in minorits.
- 50:33Speaker 6: Is he currently under house rest?
- 50:36Speaker 2: Uh?
- 50:37Speaker 1: We you will see.
- 50:38Speaker 2: So Kirkham's biggest desire was always to be famous. He
- 50:41Speaker 2: spent his entire adulthood weaving elaborate lives about his accomplishments
- 50:44Speaker 2: and status, and victoriously attacked anyone who said otherwise. In
- 50:48Speaker 2: twenty sixteen, at the age of forty three, he was
- 50:50Speaker 2: found dead in his apartment.
- 50:51Speaker 3: The death does not ruled the suspicious, so you know.
- 50:54Speaker 5: So somebody there's a definitive answer. Somebody knows what happened.
- 50:57Speaker 6: But again, it's.
- 50:58Speaker 1: Like the plaques give me information.
- 51:01Speaker 5: And like not to be a dick about it, but
- 51:03Speaker 5: I'm not sad, you know, I feel not this guy.
- 51:06Speaker 2: Fuck this guy, what he did to these people with
- 51:09Speaker 2: this memorial, these indigenous people, Like that's important. Like the
- 51:12Speaker 2: reason that we commemorate those things is not for vanity.
- 51:14Speaker 2: It's not to wave it in people's faces so that
- 51:16Speaker 2: it doesn't fucking happen again.
- 51:17Speaker 1: Like that's the whole point of history is we're supposed
- 51:19Speaker 1: to look at it and be like, did that shit
- 51:21Speaker 1: just happen?
- 51:22Speaker 4: Right, especially the missing and murdered Indigenous woman, Like this
- 51:25Speaker 4: is an epidemic, Like that that is like when people
- 51:29Speaker 4: fuck with stuff like that, that really makes me crazy,
- 51:31Speaker 4: like when the scam is about people who have died
- 51:34Speaker 4: or trying to help, like it just it's too much.
- 51:36Speaker 1: It's too much.
- 51:38Speaker 5: My only thing is I hope somebody like picks this up,
- 51:41Speaker 5: like his project with the plaques, but just does it better.
- 51:44Speaker 5: Like it doesn't seem like this whole thing was very
- 51:46Speaker 5: well thought out.
- 51:47Speaker 2: You know.
- 51:48Speaker 1: No, here's got to be a better way.
- 51:50Speaker 4: I feel like I say it on every podcast I
- 51:51Speaker 4: ever do, There's got to be a better way.
- 51:53Speaker 2: After he went to home depot, the plaques aren't that big.
- 51:56Speaker 2: He was like, yeah, we'll burn it here right right?
- 51:59Speaker 1: Would you say four four inches?
- 52:01Speaker 6: Yeah?
- 52:01Speaker 2: It was like yapus scamming it on it though, because
- 52:04Speaker 2: it's gonna go into the ground.
- 52:05Speaker 3: Yeah, spring for the laminate now.
- 52:06Speaker 6: I only want four.
- 52:07Speaker 3: I'm supposed to do sixteen before is enough?
- 52:10Speaker 5: Like what but my grant my grant check still hasn't cleared,
- 52:14Speaker 5: so I'll be back.
- 52:16Speaker 3: I'll be bad.
- 52:17Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 52:17Speaker 1: No, y'all make them though, and then I'm gonna come
- 52:19Speaker 1: in and approve them. I'm gonna need to hold all
- 52:21Speaker 1: of them at one time.
- 52:23Speaker 6: Yeah, and then and I'm.
- 52:24Speaker 1: Gonna approve them.
- 52:26Speaker 6: Oh my god, what a piece of shit, this guy.
- 52:28Speaker 1: Piece of shuffle. Awful guy, bad dude. We do not
- 52:32Speaker 1: fuck with this guy.
- 52:33Speaker 2: Guys, it's time for the saddest part of the show,
- 52:34Speaker 2: where I have to let Jillian and Patrick go, but
- 52:36Speaker 2: not before we do Scammer of the week. This is
- 52:40Speaker 2: where we highlight an honorary Charlottean. Either we love them
- 52:43Speaker 2: or we hate them. We don't know yet. We make
- 52:45Speaker 2: no promises.
- 52:46Speaker 4: Uh.
- 52:46Speaker 2: Today we're talking about davey On Sandford. He's twenty two
- 52:50Speaker 2: and currently on the run after allegedly committing fraud to
- 52:52Speaker 2: bond his boyfriend Davonte Jones, twenty six out of jail.
- 52:56Speaker 3: Okay, this is real love, that's right?
- 52:57Speaker 6: Or die? You know what I mean?
- 52:59Speaker 1: Yeah?
- 53:00Speaker 5: Is this is this like a very special gay scam
- 53:02Speaker 5: episode or is this all random?
- 53:04Speaker 2: It's I mean, shout out to Kaitlin. Maybe she gave
- 53:07Speaker 2: us a through line here. Yes, but I love gay crime.

- 53:22Speaker 2: they were housed in the same jail unit.
- 53:24Speaker 1: Love that for y'all.
- 53:25Speaker 3: Can we do a movie about this, like the Notebook?
- 53:27Speaker 4: But it's yes, like the book which one of the
- 53:31Speaker 4: book which one of them was putting up that it's
- 53:34Speaker 4: a witch hunt posters in prison.
- 53:35Speaker 1: That's what I want to know. It's the real hero
- 53:38Speaker 1: of the story.
- 53:39Speaker 2: So he bonded out of jail months before he illegally
- 53:42Speaker 2: used the identity and personal information of two other people
- 53:45Speaker 2: to secure eighty thousand dollars bond for Jones' release.
- 53:47Speaker 3: That's love, love, he said.
