  Speaker 2: like one of those like Lunessa ads you just like
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: just go straight through it.
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: Oh no, not the lunessay. And I'm like, in addition
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: to sleeping, you might drive car, kill people, racism on
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: the internet, kill yourself. I loved you know, like butked boked.
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: I would love to get that gig.
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: I mean, right, I saw someone on TikTok. I'm always
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: on TikTok. By the way, I don't know if you
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: follow me on Twitter. L L just kidding you do,
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: we follow each other, But uh, there's this girl that
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: like actively does it, and she doesn't speed her voice up.
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: She speaks that fast. I'm like, how on earth are
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: you doing that professionally? Like are the pharmacy girls calling her?
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: Yeah, the pharmacy girls are calling her. Oh wow, that's
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: the lawyer girls.
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: The lawyer girl. What the lawyers call? You know? Those
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: Seleno and Barnes R I P R I P but
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: oh yeah, And then they broke up because which was
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: still a laugh? Is it Seleno or bar? I don't know,
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: but I feel bad for bringing them up because, like
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: I rip, they had Yeah it was I think I
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: talked about that because there was some over there about that.
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah there was. I don't know what the tea was,
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: but it was hot. It was some tea. Man. But
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: I will say, like one of the things, this is
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: so random. One of the things I think about sometimes,
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: like if I went to jail and I had to
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: do like a first phone call, right, and like I
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: could call my mother. I know my mother's number, but
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: she doesn't live in Los Angeles, so like that wouldn't
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: be like a good number to call. So I'm like,
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: when I called to bail me out and I really
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: don't know my friend's phone numbers like that, I'm so trifling,
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: Like everything is pretty saved in my phone. So I'm like,
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: I think I would be in there like one hundred
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: eight day day. They would't help you, though, they would
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: probably help you, all right, I'd have to call him
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: and be like actually knowing them. Yeah, y'all don't know me. Bye, goodbye,
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: y'all don't know me. Then I'm gonna sell like Alicia
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: Keys in that interview, like I look different, I said,
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: my work clothes. Oh my gosh.
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: Can we talk about how that whole entire song is
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: just like so creepy shade? But like also like why
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: was he drinking chocolate with fish? And what was it
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: something else?
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: Yeah? What was his order? Because it was weird?
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: It was like fish and like some green. I think
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: it was greens collar greens fish fried fish. Can't forget
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: the fried. Yeah, chocolate with cream? Like are you okay, sir?
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: Yeah? I feel like I don't want to date you.
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: I feel like you be farting a lot. Also, like
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: why do you eat like that? What's going on? Like
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: what's going on? Are you okay? Yeah? Yeah, you're absolutely
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: right about that. It does feel like uh.
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: And every Wednesday, like, are you you have to go
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: to jail? Like what are you doing?
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: Is? Are you from jail? Are you giving a serial killer?
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: It's giving, it's given penitentiary behavior for sure. I don't
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: I don't know. Yeah, it's and I mean listen, if
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: you've been at carstority and you come out, that is
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: no shade. Okay, No prison is a scam. And if
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: it's that scam got you, then you know hate to
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: but we do. I do love prison TikTok whenever cooking
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: food and stuff and I'm like, wow, TikTok. They make laughy,
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: tappy and like all types of thame and I'm glad
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: that they have TikTok. I saw some losers on there
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: talking about how'd they get these phones? They're already in jail,
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: you losers, Like, let them have some fun. They're still
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: human beings.
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: Their little Addison Ray stolen dances, Like if that's what they.
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: Want to do, like Addison stole from the black people,
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: let them do though exactly. I have to ask Bertie
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: before we get started, Brittany, what is your relationship to
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: skims I've ever been scammed? Do you like them? Do
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: you hate them? Like what's your what are you at?
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: You know, I feel like life is a scam. Okay, yeah,
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: this thing and I don't know if that takes us
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: to an existential crisis mode. But like credit scores, that's
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: a scam, you know, be in like the eighties, right,
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: like I have a point attached to my name, I
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: have a social Security number that we pay into. But
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: like dondea STA them funds like where's that at? These
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: funds aren't coming. That reminds me of that one tweet
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: that I don't know who originated it, because you know,
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: when a tweet goes viral, everyone steals it. But that
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: one tweet that was like credit karma, you're on a
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: roll and an experience like no, no, fuck you n
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: You know what's really funny is I have so I
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: pay for the experience red carpet, White glove experience, if
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: you will, like I pay for this? Does that entail right? Exactly?
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: It's probably a scam now that I'm talking about it.
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: But anyway, you pay to get like the full features
• 6:38
  Speaker 2: on the app, so you can like really see what's
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: going on. Then you can pay for like to see
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: about if you're on the dark web, which is scary.
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: Now what are these full features? So are you the
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: dark web? What else will they tell you?
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: Is your social security I'm a compromised who's using it?
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: Is your like which email addresses are compromised? You get
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: all three of your scores. I want to reiterate that
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: that those score are a scam. But you get them
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: and you get to refresh them like once a month
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: or something like that.
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: Whereas Credit Karma's like you're doing great, girlfriend, like no problem,
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: don't even check the app, like you're fine, and then
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: the Experience app is just like no, see. I think
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: it's a little messed up that in order to know
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: if someone is using my social Security number, I gotta
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: run Experience some ducats Like I just feel like that's
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: something that is I should should be aware of. If
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: that's a crime, that's a crime. I'm pretty sure crime.
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: That's like if a crime happened to you and the
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: police was like, okay, but we know who broke into
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: your car. We do, but you know, you know they
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: defunded us, so we shill, yeah, we don't need We
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: would definitely show you who robbed you. Who broken to
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: your is like we know how much you owe and
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: you owe it, and this is the date that we
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: want you to pay it. And you're like okay, cool, cool,
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: Like how much is it? Guess?
• 7:54
  Speaker 2: You got to guess it, and if you don't guess
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: it correctly, then we're gonna send you a federal prisoner.
• 7:59
  Speaker 2: It's just like there's no one between like.
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: Wesley Snipes, Okay, Laura ren Hill, you going to jail.
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: But going back to the credit thing, because I think
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: that's also interesting, is like, and I will do more
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: research on this because I want to actually talk about this,
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: But it's funny to me that somebody was like, yeah,
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: we just gonna become the credit Bureau because whenever we
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: think about like government organizations or anything, I think that
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: they we remove the humanity from laws, from lawmakers, from
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: the Declaration of Independence, all this bullshit right from the Constitution.
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: We remove the fact that this is just a bunch
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: of people in the room, usually all white dudes, who
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: was like, let's make some institutions up, y'all, Like what
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: for fair? You know what I mean? So can I
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: add to the credit Bureau? I would like to make
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: another Like we got three scores, I want a fourth one.
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: That's just vibes, like the vibes are bad that you
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: can't rent places like that. I get that.
• 8:54
  Speaker 2: Then, like, oh you have bad vibes. I'm not going
• 8:56
  Speaker 2: to let you rent my home. That makes sense to me. Also,
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: like can we get like people of color in the
• 9:01
  Speaker 2: bureau so that we'd be like, oh, this is like
• 9:03
  Speaker 2: this black man just wants a car, Like that's fine,
• 9:06
  Speaker 2: get a car.
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: I don't know. I just feel like it's a scam.
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: It's all scam. I mean it is, And it's a
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: scam to keepople poor because like your interest rates are
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: going to be much higher if you're already broke, which
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: makes no sense. It's like don't they not have the money? Yeah,
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: but we have to worry about them not paying it
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: at all. It's like okay, girl, so you know, I
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: could spend my life doing that, just vibes assessed. When
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: people come sit down, it only takes like five to
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: ten seconds and I'll be like, yeah, give them a home,
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: don't give them up. No home for them, no home
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: for them, no home for them but them, this is fine. Yeah,
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: or actually they just can't have a home, but not
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: an apartment. They should not live near people. Yeah, Vie
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: a farmhouse. Yeah, like you could just yeah, I feel
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: like we're on the same page. I sign where you live.
• 9:49

  Speaker 1: we gonna have to commute. You gotta commute because you
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: need to work in the wood. And you're giving that.
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: I assessed on your vibes that you could have. You see,
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: it's giving four that you can have. It's giving Hundi behavior,
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: but you can have one and that's fine. Right. Oh

  Speaker 1: Like I need to hurt her sign in NDIA. Now
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: that I'm thinking about it, go ahead, I'm sorry, right, yeah,
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: now you might have to Yes, you might have to
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: get all scandal and be six thirteen. All your hairstylas hell.
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: We all need to that, so should really be doing
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: the extortion out here. Let's get a little bit. Hey,
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: let's let you doing here. I'm I'm not due for
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: another weis for two weeks. Yeah, that's not why I'm here.
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: I'm here exactly. We need to put them under an NDA. Anyways,
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: we do high high surveillance for the hairstylas. So anyway,
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: throughout the years, I've had several people try some slick
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: shit to get free hair, free hair. Okay, I do
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: have to give my scammer slash criminal ex boyfriend some
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: credit for putting me on game, which is one of
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: the reasons none of these clients have ever been able
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: to pull a fast one on me. Okay, So like
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: that your ex boyfriend did something right. Obviously he's gone
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: and there's a reason for that. But that's good, right. Yeah,
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: so some honorable mentions. A client whose husband is definitely
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: like a computer hacker, like I think the type that
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: steals credit card numbers, and then she would always pay
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: in full upfront from different PayPal accounts. She always would
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: make new accounts. Yeah, I feel like you should just
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: really have one PayPal account, like I feel like you No,
• 16:15
  Speaker 1: for sure, No, for sure, like if you have several,
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: Like if I'm like, right, jail, but yeah, yeah, if
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: I have to Venmo you and you're like, yeah, I
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: got a new Venmo. How many You shouldn't have new Venmos? No,
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: I should have, just won't. And that's where we stand.
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: If you just keep having a new one, I really
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: can't do it. I think any new thing when it
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: comes to your finances, like maybe you switch banks once
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: or twice, but like if you just got a new bank,
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: a new bank, who is like.
• 16:41
  Speaker 2: That's the authorities will be called. I'm like, all right,
• 16:44
  Speaker 2: why are you doing this?
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: Why are you moving around so much? It's not like shoes,
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: you know, you shouldn't be changing your bank like you
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: change your shoes. Your PayPal, you know, right, So she's
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: so basically she's paying with different paypals all the time
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: and very sketchy. Okay, another one and texted me for
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: three days straight telling me how much she loved her
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: hair after I did a huge color correction and new extensions.
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: Then on the fourth day it all changed. She told
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: me she was off her meds before I did her hair.
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: She said it was all wrong and wanted her money back,
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: and that her uncle is a lawyer, and that she
• 17:19
  Speaker 1: that I didn't have the license to do extensions. I
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: told her I'm a licensed cosmetologist and will no longer
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: be speaking to her since she threatened legal action, especially
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: when I did nothing wrong. Long story short, she tried
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: to dispute the charges with her credit card company. When
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: she couldn't scare me into giving her the money back.
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: I sent the screenshots and my reply to the credit
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: card company and got a real nasty text when she
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: found out that they denied her claim. I hope that. Okay,
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: I'm not going to blame this on mental illness, she says.
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: I hope she's back Grandmards, but I'm not gonna Oh
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: that's it. Yeah, I don't agree with that, Paul Revere.
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: Outside of that, like, I've never thought to try to
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: return a hairstyle.
• 17:53
  Speaker 2: No, I didn't think that that was a returnable idea.
• 17:57
  Speaker 2: Think that that's something you shout out, Arena, Well, ask me,
• 18:02
  Speaker 2: is this what you want? Is this matching what you're
• 18:05
  Speaker 2: asking for? And I'll either say yes or no. And
• 18:08
  Speaker 2: I feel like it's non refundable.
• 18:11
  Speaker 1: Right, Yeah, I just don't think how do you get
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: a how do you return one of those things. It's
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: like if you go to the dentist and you get
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: a clean and you're like I don't want to give
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: like I'm like this, yeah, yeah, take back. Yeah. I
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: guess you could be dissatisfied with your service and then
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: perhaps ask for a discount or refup. But even then,
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: it's like you do people do that. That's wild, that's crazy.
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: I have never heard of that. I just didn't think
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: you could do that. Now I have returned some extensions
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: that were not the equality that they normally are or whatever.
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: I've definitely done that. Yeah, when something's in your head though,
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: once it is sewn into your head and colored and stuff,
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: I just feel like you have to go with that. Yeah,
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: go with God, because that's the point. Very funny that
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: she jumped to legal action immediately. She was like, my
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: uncle was a lawyer, and he'll sue you. Like how
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: much was this hair? Girl? Because I feel like it's
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: not giving, Like, let's go to.
• 19:02
  Speaker 2: Court like small claims. Like Judge mathis like he's not
• 19:05
  Speaker 2: gonna look at that. He's not looking at that.
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: Also, like he said off, She said that she was
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: off of her medication, which I won't really touch on.
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: Although as a fellow mental health.
• 19:17
  Speaker 2: Girl for the girlies with the sads is what I
• 19:22
  Speaker 2: like to call them.
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: That's that's some information that's important, I think. Yeah, But
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: at the same time, I don't know if her mentioning
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: that was her trying to season up her story because
• 19:35
  Speaker 1: she was the one who mentioned it to Paul Revere.
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: So this just seems like she's trying to give a
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: lot of factors as to why she loved the hair,
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: and then now she's like, no, now that I'm in
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: my right mind again, I hate the hair, like absolutely so. Obviously,
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: the woman who tried to threaten legal action did not
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: get a refund on her hair weave, but she tried,
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: you know, she just had. Of course, I have the
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: ig onlyfan model girls who get their hair paid for
• 20:06
  Speaker 1: before they go on a trip to Dubai. But I
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: don't consider these a scam. Get your money, girl. Yeah,
• 20:10
  Speaker 1: I don't know why you wrote that in there. That's
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: not a scam. That support of the list of requirements. Right, So,
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: since I've seen my fair share of people doing something
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: strange for a piece of change for hair extensions, okay,
• 20:23
  Speaker 1: but this is one client from November probably forever claimed
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: the top spot. The particular client had come to me
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: a few times over the past year. She already had
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: extensions from someone else and they were messed up. I
• 20:31
  Speaker 1: fixed them a few times for her. She never wanted
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: to pay what I charged for a full appointment with
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: new hair install so a few times I would just
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: charge her for the maintenance appointments. I eventually told her
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: she would need to pay for new hair and an
• 20:41
  Speaker 1: installment since I'm running a business and this is my income.
• 20:45
  Speaker 1: She said she could not afford it, and okay, I
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: mean it just sounds like she couldn't. I don't know, girls,
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: some of these scams that you wrote in here aren't
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: really sounded like scams. It just sounds like people who
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: were broke I can't afford it.
• 20:57
  Speaker 2: Also, like, why are you booking a service if you
• 20:59
  Speaker 2: can't pay for it?
• 21:00
  Speaker 1: Right, I mean, you'd be surprised people will do this.
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: So she says. This goes on for a while. About
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: six months passes and I get a frantic call from
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: her that she absolutely has to have extensions done for
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: the holidays and she has the money. Mind you, I'm
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: booked out three months ahead, but there's always room for money.
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: The appointment would be between three thousand and four thousand dollars.
• 21:21
  Speaker 1: Wait for the holidays for what threena four thousand dollars
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: for one appointment? Who's scamming? Who? Who's scamming? Are they?
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: What is it? I can't even find them? What are
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: you doing? Are you? Are you doing like hair plugs?
• 21:38
  Speaker 1: Like are they gonna leave plugs like they golden hair plugs?
• 21:42
  Speaker 1: Are you putting the hair extension in the scalp? I think, Paul?
• 21:45
  Speaker 1: Is this still Paul? Yeah? This is Paul talking. Paul
• 21:48
  Speaker 1: needs jail because that's that's not Why are you doing
• 21:52
  Speaker 1: that for Loreena four thousand dollars? What are you get
• 21:56
  Speaker 1: done to your hair? Paul? Come on, man, now understand you. Paul,
• 22:03
  Speaker 1: you was over calling the girl. He's poor, but if
• 22:05
  Speaker 1: you charge it, it's a down payment on the car.
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: They're not poor. You're just insane. Like what do you mean?
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: Maybe they're they want to pay the right amount And
• 22:15
  Speaker 1: he's like, no, no, no, that's like I need. I mean, look,
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: there are some celebrity hairstyles who will charge for like
• 22:22
  Speaker 1: you know, expensive highlights and stuff like that, but three
• 22:24
  Speaker 1: to four thousand dollars, like, bro, that's a down payment
• 22:26
  Speaker 1: on the Honda Civic. Yeah, or it's insane or one
• 22:30
  Speaker 1: hairstyle one? What is it? Now? I need to know
• 22:33
  Speaker 1: what the style is? Does Paul elaborate on that? Actually?
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: So you know this letter, it's all over the place
• 22:43
  Speaker 1: and it's very long. But what I'm surmising at this
• 22:47
  Speaker 1: point is, Paul, you might be the one running game
• 22:49
  Speaker 1: because hairstylist y'all reach out to me. I've been getting
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: my hairs dead, you know, for a long time as
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: an African American woman. And you know, my mom went
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: to cosmetology school because for fun, I'm too. Is that
• 23:05
  Speaker 1: a black mom thing? Maybe? Because when I was deported,
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: my mom was like, I don't want to work. I'm
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: gonna go to cosmetology school. Okay, it's not her profession
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: at all. She just saying when and has had done it. Okay,
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: maybe it's a black mom thing. Damn, I might need
• 23:22
  Speaker 1: to go to cosmetology school. Same, Like, that's right, a passage, right,
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: I gotta make sure that the kids look good. So
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: I tell her the total, That's what Paul says. So
• 23:34
  Speaker 1: I tell her the total must be paid upfront in cash,
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: and she has to come in the next day for
• 23:38
  Speaker 1: a consultation. She says, I have a credit card and
• 23:41
  Speaker 1: a debit card. Do you have money? Though, Like I
• 23:48
  Speaker 1: have these these items, but like I got a credit
• 23:51
  Speaker 1: card and a debit card and the like, Yeah, I'm
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: pretty sure that a debit card. You know, you can
• 23:57
  Speaker 1: take that to an automatic telling machine telling me and
• 24:01
  Speaker 1: then you can extract cash. You will get that money out. Yeah,
• 24:05
  Speaker 1: that's how they work. And even with a brand a
• 24:07
  Speaker 1: fee on a credit card, you can get cash out,
• 24:10
  Speaker 1: which is wild. You also do zell right, which is
• 24:14
  Speaker 1: as good as cash. So but she said so, pow
• 24:18
  Speaker 1: Revere said three to four K, I'm gonna need an
• 24:20
  Speaker 1: upfront in cash bricks run it up. And homegirl said
• 24:25
  Speaker 1: I have a credit card on a debit card, And
• 24:26
  Speaker 1: Paul said no, no, no, lol. I told her cash only.
• 24:31
  Speaker 1: I already knew those cards were not hers the day
• 24:33
  Speaker 1: of the consultation. See, Paul, Now that's how I know
• 24:36
  Speaker 1: you are a part of this gam because you're like, look,
• 24:38
  Speaker 1: I know that she stole them credit cards.
• 24:41
  Speaker 2: I know what that looks like. I know the vibes
• 24:43
  Speaker 2: not gonna because I and so I know it looks like. Yeah, Paul, honestly, Paul,
• 24:50
  Speaker 2: like this, you're the I think you're the problem here.
• 24:53
  Speaker 2: And also like I need to see what the hairstyles
• 24:55
  Speaker 2: are because.
• 24:57
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Paul, I'm gonna need you to send us some
• 24:58
  Speaker 1: photos because three to four one thousand four a hairstyle. Paul,
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: I need to know what you're doing over there? What
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: are you doing? Clearly miracles, Paul? Are you a witch?
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: So the day of the consultation, she calls me about
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: ten minutes before the pointment and says her grandma, who
• 25:12
  Speaker 1: is paying for her hair, apparently cannot give her a
• 25:15
  Speaker 1: ride because she's having back spasms. This woman is in
• 25:18
  Speaker 1: her late forties, the woman who'll get her hair done.
• 25:20
  Speaker 1: She asked me, how am I going to get there? Girl,
• 25:23
  Speaker 1: I don't know, so I say uber or live. She
• 25:26
  Speaker 1: says her uber is broken and can I send her
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: an Uber? Now, Normally, the second I send any Malachy
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: a foot, I just stopped responding to people. That's the
• 25:34
  Speaker 1: advantage of voting your own business. But for some reason,
• 25:36
  Speaker 1: on the day I was open to some almost free entertainment.
• 25:38
  Speaker 1: So I send her an uber to get to my salon.
• 25:40
  Speaker 1: It only cost me twenty dollars. I reiterated that she
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: must have the full amount of cash to pay for
• 25:44
  Speaker 1: the appointment, and when she arrives for the consultation, she replies,
• 25:47
  Speaker 1: I have more than you need. Okay. That sounds like
• 25:51
  Speaker 1: a thread right. She arrives to the salon clearly, Hi,
• 25:56
  Speaker 1: I do the consultation colored to matter extension swatches okay,
• 26:00
  Speaker 1: And she explains the hair and I don't need to
• 26:03
  Speaker 1: know that. So I look at her like, Okay, where's money. Honestly,
• 26:06
  Speaker 1: I knew she was never going to go through with it,
• 26:07
  Speaker 1: but I just really wanted to see what her audacity
• 26:11
  Speaker 1: inspired her to attempt. She asked if we can talk
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: outside and tells me she has a gift for me.
• 26:15
  Speaker 1: At this point, I think she's going to try to
• 26:17
  Speaker 1: pay me in drugs. Oh no, it was even worse.
• 26:19
  Speaker 1: We walk outside, she pulls out a bag of jewelry
• 26:21
  Speaker 1: from her purse. She explains that her grandma was not
• 26:24
  Speaker 1: able to pull the money out because of backspasms, so
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: she went in her safe at her grandma's house and
• 26:29
  Speaker 1: pulled out jewelry. The client is claiming the jewey belongs
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: to her, but just told me she took it from
• 26:34
  Speaker 1: the safe at her grandma's house. She also has some
• 26:36
  Speaker 1: printed out forms that were supposedly proof that the jewelry
• 26:39
  Speaker 1: is real. Some of the joy may have been real,
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: but some of it looked fake and like those from
• 26:43
  Speaker 1: a mal Kioks not Paul. Now, why are you inspecting
• 26:45
  Speaker 1: the jewels because he's a thief. Paul is a thief.
• 26:49
  Speaker 1: It takes one to no one, Sir Madam, I tell her, no,
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: the fool about has to be paying cash. She becomes
• 26:55
  Speaker 1: Ira asked if I can just trust her and use
• 26:58
  Speaker 1: my own money to order the hair. She'll pay when
• 27:00
  Speaker 1: she comes back from her appointment next week. Girl by.
• 27:03
  Speaker 1: I tell her, if she can come back by the
• 27:04
  Speaker 1: end of the day, I'll keep her appointment. If not,
• 27:06
  Speaker 1: I'll cancel it. Obviously, I don't hear from her going
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: about my week. Da da da da da. Anyway, okay, Lord,
• 27:12
  Speaker 1: And then there's a text exchange. It's too long. We
• 27:14
  Speaker 1: have to move on. But power be I think you
• 27:16
  Speaker 1: might be a scammer, Like, yeah, I think you might.
• 27:20
  Speaker 1: Have you been to jail?
• 27:21
  Speaker 2: That's a question that I need to know the answer to.
• 27:24
  Speaker 2: And also if the company you keep.
• 27:28
  Speaker 1: We are all mirrors, not to get philosophical, but we
• 27:31
  Speaker 1: see ourselves and other people So are you attracting other
• 27:37
  Speaker 1: criminals because you clearly are one, is what I think. Yeah,
• 27:41
  Speaker 1: it's giving criminal because it's giving criminal. Like she literally
• 27:45
  Speaker 1: just told you that she stole these jewels, and you're like,
• 27:47
  Speaker 1: you know they're stolen. You know that you're getting stolen
• 27:49
  Speaker 1: credit cards, you know that all this stuff is frauding,
• 27:52
  Speaker 1: and you're like, well, as long as it can't be
• 27:53
  Speaker 1: trace begs me. You know you want this three thousand
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: to four thousand dollar hairstyle, it's shade. You need to
• 28:00
  Speaker 1: go pond your greatest jewels real quick and then come back.
• 28:05
  Speaker 1: And also like entertaining, like saying you're entertaining the whole experience,
• 28:10
  Speaker 1: Like you you had wanted to do a crime today
• 28:14
  Speaker 1: and you should just say that. Yeah, you could just
• 28:16
  Speaker 1: say that if you wanted to do crime, just say that, girl.
• 28:18
  Speaker 1: I don't know if you begin scammed, Paul, I don't
• 28:20
  Speaker 1: know if you're getting scammed. I feel like you might
• 28:22
  Speaker 1: be doing the scams. You're dealing with scammers. So that's
• 28:25
  Speaker 1: your clientele. If your clientele is all criminals, then you
• 28:27
  Speaker 1: know what you get. There's no honor a month. And also, hey,
• 28:30
  Speaker 1: coming from someone who's doing marketing market it maybe make
• 28:33
  Speaker 1: like you know, make it hair your criminal's hair styles.
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: You know what I mean? You could coin it. I
• 28:39
  Speaker 1: mean you might get in jail easier, but I don't
• 28:42
  Speaker 1: know if you would. I mean, you could really sell
• 28:44
  Speaker 1: it as like you you you give the great court
• 28:47
  Speaker 1: looks like coming here and get you know, your hair,
• 28:50
  Speaker 1: get silk pressed before your indictment. Mark at that.
• 28:54
  Speaker 2: That's a free some free advice, Polly. Why don't you

  Speaker 1: I feel like I'm afraid of you, Paul, so like,
• 29:13
  Speaker 1: just know these are all jokes. I love you, Paul.
• 29:16
  Speaker 1: I can't wait to get my four thousand dollars hair. Okay,
• 29:21
  Speaker 1: it's gonna be everything everything I have run. It's time
• 29:35
  Speaker 1: for my favorite segment of the show, Historic hood Wings,
• 29:38
  Speaker 1: which we're gonna have to blaze through this one today
• 29:41
  Speaker 1: otherwise it's gonna be long. Good lord, Paul, you really
• 29:45
  Speaker 1: you robbed me? Paul. Oh no, it's not, Paul. I
• 29:48
  Speaker 1: was just addressing Paul one more time. This whole show
• 29:51
  Speaker 1: is about Paul. Now, Paul scammed me out of a
• 29:54
  Speaker 1: whole episode. So Historic Hoodwings. So this is where we were,
• 29:59
  Speaker 1: Gale Brittany with a famous con caper group of criminals.
• 30:02
  Speaker 1: We don't know yet. Maybe we love them, maybe we
• 30:04
  Speaker 1: hate them. We'll get our opinions all throughout. Let's see
• 30:06
  Speaker 1: what we're dealing with today. So in Historic Couldwings today
• 30:09
  Speaker 1: we're talking about a young Scottish man, So Sir Gregor
• 30:13
  Speaker 1: McGregor to some told the people of his hometown about
• 30:16
  Speaker 1: a paradise he had found in South America. All anyone
• 30:19
  Speaker 1: would have to do to see it was invest with him. However,
• 30:23
  Speaker 1: little do they know, the country of Poyers didn't actually exist.
• 30:29
  Speaker 1: And I'm having immediate flashbacks because if you listen to
• 30:32
  Speaker 1: Behind the Bastards, I have talked about Poyers but on
• 30:36
  Speaker 1: that show. So here we are, it's made its way
• 30:39
  Speaker 1: over here. A little bit about Gregor McGregor. Gregor was
• 30:42
  Speaker 1: born on the twenty fourth of December seventeen eighty six
• 30:45
  Speaker 1: to the Clan MacGregor, a clan notable for strong family
• 30:49
  Speaker 1: tradition of fighting. Okay, sir, that's what your family legacy
• 30:56
  Speaker 1: was giving. Like some people like, oh we make the
• 30:58
  Speaker 1: best brain. Oh we got hate, we throw hands. Yeah,
• 31:01
  Speaker 1: it was just my family does violence to people. That's
• 31:06
  Speaker 1: what we do. Now let me know if y'all need
• 31:10
  Speaker 1: some violence done. Yeah, it's the family business. Like everybody
• 31:16
  Speaker 1: gets in the family business when they grow up. You're
• 31:19
  Speaker 1: the one kid who wants to like make art. Right,
• 31:23
  Speaker 1: it makes me think of that boxer. But yeah, right, hands,
• 31:28
  Speaker 1: he does throw hands. He must. This must be his family,
• 31:30
  Speaker 1: which makes sense. Keep that tradition going. I would love
• 31:32
  Speaker 1: to be like the one McGregor who wants to make
• 31:34
  Speaker 1: art or something like. Now you know that's not what
• 31:36
  Speaker 1: we do here mcgreggors. We make kites. Like that, want
• 31:40
  Speaker 1: to make a kite, get them fists up like you're
• 31:45
  Speaker 1: trying to paint. They're like, nah, you gotta throw hands.
• 31:47
  Speaker 1: We don't use the hands to make art, okay, closed
• 31:49
  Speaker 1: fist hands and legs in this family exactly. His father
• 31:56
  Speaker 1: was Daniel McGregor, an East India company see captain, and
• 31:59
  Speaker 1: his grandfather had served with the distinction in the Scottish
• 32:03
  Speaker 1: Royal Army, so he served with distinction. Excuse me, y'all know,
• 32:06
  Speaker 1: I know warsta. So obviously the girls are like they're
• 32:12
  Speaker 1: getting if you throw hands, what do you do? You
• 32:14
  Speaker 1: go to wars. That's you know, got any sense, You
• 32:17
  Speaker 1: get distinction titles and you go to wars. You know,
• 32:21
  Speaker 1: love that. So he was also distantly related to the
• 32:24
  Speaker 1: infamous Scottish outloy rob Roy McGregor. At the age of sixteen,
• 32:27
  Speaker 1: Gregor joined the British Army just as the Napoleonic Wars
• 32:31
  Speaker 1: were about to begin. After only a year of serving
• 32:33
  Speaker 1: in the fifty seven foot Regiment, Gregor was promoted to lieutenant.
• 32:37
  Speaker 1: So he's only been working in the army with the
• 32:39
  Speaker 1: army girls for a year and they were like, you
• 32:42
  Speaker 1: are now army manager, you senior manager Army. You are
• 32:47
  Speaker 1: a soldier of the month. He really rows amongst the ranks.
• 32:52
  Speaker 1: At the age of nineteen, he married Maria Bowater, a
• 32:55
  Speaker 1: well connected, wealthy woman whose father also happened to be
• 32:58
  Speaker 1: a Royal Navy admiral. Now comfortably wealthy Gregory or Gregor,
• 33:03
  Speaker 1: excuse me, set up a home with Maria. Marie, Yeah,
• 33:07
  Speaker 1: and your family is rich and my family can fight.
• 33:10
  Speaker 1: And then they got married. So he set up a
• 33:12
  Speaker 1: home with Maria and subsequently rejoined his regiment at Gibraltar.
• 33:17
  Speaker 1: Gregor used his new found wealth to buy a rank
• 33:20
  Speaker 1: of captain. So now he'd done bought himself a captain rank.
• 33:25
  Speaker 1: So he I guess at this time, like you could
• 33:31
  Speaker 1: get higher up in the military if you had money, right, right,
• 33:37
  Speaker 1: So he bought himself a captain position, which obviously like
• 33:40
  Speaker 1: he hasn't been doing wars that long, but he was like, okay,
• 33:43
  Speaker 1: well girl, I'm ready to lead the wars. And this
• 33:47
  Speaker 1: is him.
• 33:47
  Speaker 2: Oh my gosh, he looks like, oh the close up
• 33:52
  Speaker 2: makes it worse.
• 33:53
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it's like it's giving.
• 33:56
  Speaker 2: It's giving Pinocchio pre Wood and boy, it's giving, it's
• 34:03
  Speaker 2: giving Saw.
• 34:04
  Speaker 1: Right, Yeah, it is kind of giving. Saw His face
• 34:08
  Speaker 1: is very soft. I'd imagine it would feel like a
• 34:11
  Speaker 1: like ash mellow.
• 34:12
  Speaker 2: Oh, Like his face is so soft. I don't like it.
• 34:15
  Speaker 2: And also, where's the hairline? I know this it's not
• 34:18
  Speaker 2: about his hairline, but like where is it? Yeah, maybe
• 34:20
  Speaker 2: he needs to see Paul because.
• 34:22
  Speaker 1: Yeah, his hairline is there's a lot of rough terrain.
• 34:25
  Speaker 1: He looks like he might need like a four thousand dollar.
• 34:27
  Speaker 2: Hairstyle, like it's really getting.
• 34:30
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah, we got his zoom back out. Yoah, this
• 34:32
  Speaker 1: is that's getting though. Thank you. Oh lord. He does
• 34:35
  Speaker 1: have the kind of face that you want to punch.
• 34:36
  Speaker 1: So I understand now why the family is fighting a lot.
• 34:40
  Speaker 1: So Gregor used his new found wealth to buy the
• 34:43
  Speaker 1: rank of captain. He you know, he's moving up roughly.
• 34:45
  Speaker 1: He's been around ninety pounds or nearly one hundred and
• 34:48
  Speaker 1: ten thousand US dollars today instead of taking the seven
• 34:52
  Speaker 1: years for normal promotions, so he was like, I want
• 34:54
  Speaker 1: a promotion. I think it's very weird that we're giving
• 34:57
  Speaker 1: promotions in the army not based merit base, because I
• 35:01
  Speaker 1: think that's just like one of those jobs where like
• 35:02
  Speaker 1: I do really need you to know what you're doing,
• 35:04
  Speaker 1: Like I wouldn't want a nepotistic pilot, like I don't
• 35:07
  Speaker 1: want my dad was a pilot. Now fasten y'all seatbelts,
• 35:11
  Speaker 1: give it a go, like, let's do it. No, no thanks,
• 35:14
  Speaker 1: we had thirty five thousand feet or whatever. No, I'm
• 35:17
  Speaker 1: going no, thank you. Right, I'm gonna need you to
• 35:22
  Speaker 1: know how to do that. I'm like war, I don't
• 35:24
  Speaker 1: want to do wars when people you are in experience
• 35:27
  Speaker 1: if you can't do a war, then don't do it.
• 35:30
  Speaker 1: I think that should be that should be the lot,
• 35:32
  Speaker 1: the log line, the tagline. Yeah, if you can't do it,
• 35:35
  Speaker 1: don't do it, right. I think you just need to
• 35:37
  Speaker 1: have qualifications, like these are the jobs where you need
• 35:39
  Speaker 1: to have qualifications, not just vibes. So he eventually discharged
• 35:43
  Speaker 1: after a disagreement with the senior officer and returned from
• 35:46
  Speaker 1: the army to settle in Edinburgh after a nine year
• 35:49
  Speaker 1: military career. So nine years, so you got married to Maria,
• 35:53
  Speaker 1: then you left for like many years. And where is
• 35:57
  Speaker 1: he getting the blush from?
• 35:58
  Speaker 2: I know it's not about his look, but where's the
• 36:01
  Speaker 2: blush coming from?
• 36:02
  Speaker 1: On his face? Because he put too much on? I
• 36:06
  Speaker 1: know it's not about that. Yeah, it's it's it's too
• 36:11
  Speaker 1: much from I mean, I guess back in the day,
• 36:14
  Speaker 1: you know that some cherries, some strawberries. I don't know.
• 36:17
  Speaker 1: He needs aggressive penchake fruits, a lot of pinch off. Yeah.
• 36:22
  Speaker 1: So when he returned, Gregor attempted to pass himself off
• 36:25
  Speaker 1: as an important man from an important family and subsequently
• 36:28
  Speaker 1: began calling himself Sir Gregor McGregor. He was like, how
• 36:31
  Speaker 1: can I make this name fancier more McGregor's yeah, more
• 36:35
  Speaker 1: of it, just like a like half an inch more,
• 36:37
  Speaker 1: and sir, I'm like, I don't think any queen has
• 36:40
  Speaker 1: ever laid her katana on your shoulders. But I guess
• 36:43
  Speaker 1: you united, huh, you just yourself that we're gonna check
• 36:48
  Speaker 1: me boot right. So, however, his grand plans of wealth
• 36:50
  Speaker 1: and notoriety were gone after the death of his wife
• 36:53
  Speaker 1: shortly after his return. Left a poor widower, greg gregor
• 36:57
  Speaker 1: came up with another plan to aid his ventures. Traveled
• 36:59
  Speaker 1: to South America and become the general of a division
• 37:02
  Speaker 1: in the Army of Venezuela and Ul Granada at the
• 37:05
  Speaker 1: age of just thirty. So ooh oh, that's thirty and
• 37:11
  Speaker 1: the seventeen hundred and thirty is rough rough. We living hard.
• 37:15
  Speaker 1: Huh oh wow, it's where's the blush now, right, just
• 37:22
  Speaker 1: like a banana and the sun. That's the kind of
• 37:24
  Speaker 1: agent we're doing. This is tragic. So in the ensuing months,
• 37:28
  Speaker 1: he went on to marry another wealthy heiress, Donna Josephia
• 37:32
  Speaker 1: Antonia Andrea Arista Elovea. Uh that is a name now,
• 37:40
  Speaker 1: Gregor McGregor McGregory, I'm not even managing Fred McGregor. Okay,
• 37:43
  Speaker 1: she's a baddie. Though she's cute. She was she didn't
• 37:48
  Speaker 1: want him, No, she did not. Oh. Also, like why
• 37:51
  Speaker 1: are you giving your wealth to this man? Donnie? So
• 37:55
  Speaker 1: she's fourteen, Yeah, you know this, these are the bad times.
• 38:00
  Speaker 1: Were still living a baptise. But she don't look that
• 38:03
  Speaker 1: old for sure, don ya don yea? They did you dirty?
• 38:07
  Speaker 1: Whoever your daddy, whoever did this? This is whack because
• 38:10
  Speaker 1: you're ready, Like I really feel so sorry for you, Donya.
• 38:14
  Speaker 1: So he continued to distinguish himself as a talented and
• 38:17
  Speaker 1: courageous general of wars and independence fought by Spanish colonies
• 38:20
  Speaker 1: in Latin America. His many feats of bravery included successfully
• 38:24
  Speaker 1: capturing a small island off the coast of Florida with
• 38:26
  Speaker 1: only one hundred men. And I feel like whenever they
• 38:29
  Speaker 1: tell these types of stories, like the only people who
• 38:31
  Speaker 1: were at the war were the people who were at
• 38:32
  Speaker 1: the war, so they can see whatever they want happened exactly,
• 38:36
  Speaker 1: Like who go check them? Like there's one that has
• 38:38
  Speaker 1: one's cell phones, Like you know what I mean, they
• 38:40
  Speaker 1: can say they did anything.
• 38:42
  Speaker 2: No one's gonna google it, No one's gonna say that, well,
• 38:44
  Speaker 2: let me check it out.
• 38:45
  Speaker 1: Nope, that's what it is. That's what I realized when
• 38:48
  Speaker 1: I used to I'm from Texas, so we always had
• 38:50
  Speaker 1: to read the stories about the Alamo and shit. And
• 38:52
  Speaker 1: then I remember we went to the Alamo and it
• 38:55
  Speaker 1: was so small, it was so underwhelming. I'm like, so,
• 38:58
  Speaker 1: y'all was in here just fighting in like a like
• 39:01
  Speaker 1: not even an aha, Like this is the size of
• 39:03
  Speaker 1: like a waffle house, right, a waffle house. It was
• 39:07
  Speaker 1: giving waffle house. It feels like this was just a
• 39:09
  Speaker 1: Saturday night fight at the waffle house. And then for
• 39:12
  Speaker 1: some reason it became this folklore what we gotta remember it?
• 39:15
  Speaker 1: Also we lost what do we remember in the air?
• 39:18
  Speaker 1: I grew up in Georgia.
• 39:19
  Speaker 2: When they talk about you know, Stone Mountain, which is
• 39:22
  Speaker 2: like civil war stuff, I get it because.
• 39:26
  Speaker 1: Like, what are we talking about? What are we really discussing? Yeah,
• 39:29
  Speaker 1: I inflated this right a lot and lost, so like right,
• 39:35
  Speaker 1: like so hold the L, like, I feel like that's
• 39:36
  Speaker 1: what I remember the Alamomans. Hold the L. I like it.
• 39:40
  Speaker 1: That's a good that's a good tagline too. In eighteen twenty,
• 39:43
  Speaker 1: McGregor came across a swampy inhospitable part of the Nicarwaguan
• 39:46
  Speaker 1: Coast known as the Mosquito Coast. He convinced the leader
• 39:49
  Speaker 1: of the indigenous people to give him the land to
• 39:51
  Speaker 1: create a colony, and thus began to build his empire.
• 39:55
  Speaker 1: So I'm sure he thought he really out smartest some
• 39:57
  Speaker 1: indigenous people and was like, I got him to give
• 39:59
  Speaker 1: me the land, and they were like, oh you want
• 40:01
  Speaker 1: you mean a booboo city, that's what we call it. Yeah,
• 40:04
  Speaker 1: you can get whatever. Yeah, that's fine. Stay. Yeah he
• 40:08
  Speaker 1: wont bo city. He probably thought he had got something right.
• 40:15
  Speaker 1: He thought he had really colonized, colonize something. You Triedace.
• 40:22
  Speaker 1: I know.
• 40:22
  Speaker 2: It's not about his looks, and I keep going back
• 40:25
  Speaker 2: to it. I just can't.
• 40:27
  Speaker 1: Yeah, he has It's just his face is very it's
• 40:30
  Speaker 1: aggressive again, it hits the eye wrong, Yeah, very wrong,
• 40:34
  Speaker 1: very Okay, poor Daanya. But at least he went to
• 40:37
  Speaker 1: a world like Naya, so it's not like you had
• 40:39
  Speaker 1: to see him a lot. He was out. He was
• 40:42
  Speaker 1: a boy. Yeah, yeah, he was out doing the wars. Okay.
• 40:45
  Speaker 1: She could have had a side aside. Yeah, I hope
• 40:47
  Speaker 1: she found her a little neighborhood baddie, you know, like
• 40:51
  Speaker 1: a roofer or somebody someone. Yeah, someone the grass because
• 40:55
  Speaker 1: they didn't cut the grass back then did they pluck
• 40:57
  Speaker 1: it to get a short I don't know. They rip
• 41:00
  Speaker 1: it you She had somebody coming over to rip the
• 41:03
  Speaker 1: grass and also those walls. Okay, so the beginning of
• 41:09
  Speaker 1: Gregor's scheme. Having been gifted the land, Gregor returned home
• 41:13
  Speaker 1: with the tale of how he was the Prince of Poyees.
• 41:17
  Speaker 1: So he's telling everybody, I'm the Prince of Booboo City.
• 41:20
  Speaker 1: He got this land, he's the points of it palace,
• 41:24
  Speaker 1: and he's trying to get the girls to pull up.
• 41:27
  Speaker 1: So Poyas was an idyllic country, a little larger than whales,
• 41:30
  Speaker 1: located at the Bay of Honduras. It had miraculously fertile fields,
• 41:34
  Speaker 1: clear water, and even gold in the river banks. And
• 41:36
  Speaker 1: this is what he's telling people. We know it's Booboo City,
• 41:39
  Speaker 1: but he was like, it's huge, it's giving. It's so
• 41:44
  Speaker 1: much gold that I was like, I can't even pick
• 41:47
  Speaker 1: it all up. I can't all this gold. I'm just
• 41:49
  Speaker 1: gonna leave it. I left a lot of it there,
• 41:51
  Speaker 1: and like it was just it's crazy, the crop, the
• 41:55
  Speaker 1: land is so fertile, like the land was blessing always
• 41:59
  Speaker 1: when the crops were cropping. Like, I'm telling you this
• 42:08
  Speaker 1: man needs therapy. He truly does. But instead he has
• 42:12
  Speaker 1: scams and I love that for him. So he's telling them,
• 42:15
  Speaker 1: you know, miraculous, feels like you've never ever even seen. Okay,
• 42:20
  Speaker 1: all the people of Scotland had to do was invest
• 42:23
  Speaker 1: a modest sum with Gregor in exchange for the promise
• 42:26
  Speaker 1: of paradise. Gregor started publishing interviews in national newspapers and
• 42:30
  Speaker 1: talking about the perks of investing in Booboo City. So
• 42:36
  Speaker 1: for those who had more questions, Gregor offered a guided
• 42:40
  Speaker 1: book on written by Thomas Strangeways. Now Thomas strange Ways
• 42:46
  Speaker 1: is actually just McGregor, but he invented a pen alias.
• 42:51
  Speaker 1: Uh that sounds like a very real name, Thomas Strangeways.
• 42:57
  Speaker 1: So we're looking at an image and we'll post us
• 42:59
  Speaker 1: on the Instagram of what the city of looks like
• 43:03
  Speaker 1: according to McGregor. So he got some good draws, right
• 43:08
  Speaker 1: and also like, are you are you going to post
• 43:11
  Speaker 1: his photo? Period for them? We are. He's very distressed
• 43:16
  Speaker 1: by the photo. I'm gonna have nightmares what he posted
• 43:18
  Speaker 1: in this photo. We're zooming in here is like he says,
• 43:21
  Speaker 1: there's palm trees that are giving palm. There's even a
• 43:25
  Speaker 1: mountain in the back. There's several boats, there's lots of birds.
• 43:29
  Speaker 1: You know, it looks very lush and paradise like I
• 43:32
  Speaker 1: think in the background, he's even erected some houses. There's
• 43:36
  Speaker 1: a whole suburban neighborhood going on in situation. So tad
• 43:42
  Speaker 1: for the legitimacy. He even printed his own money and
• 43:45
  Speaker 1: offer people the opportunity to exchange their British sterling into
• 43:48
  Speaker 1: poies dollars. Okay, come on the first bitcoin. He's committed.
• 43:52
  Speaker 1: It's a commitment. He came up with a new coin.
• 43:55
  Speaker 1: I love it. There it is. He got NFTs get involved,
• 44:01
  Speaker 1: he is. Yeah.
• 44:02
  Speaker 2: I mean at this point, like even if I knew
• 44:04
  Speaker 2: he was lying, I'd be like, sure, right, he.
• 44:07
  Speaker 1: Got money, Yeah, we got photos. He got money. I mean,
• 44:12
  Speaker 1: and you know he's been in all the wars and
• 44:14
  Speaker 1: he's been around the war. A war boy. Yeah, he's
• 44:17
  Speaker 1: a war boy. He has his imagination, he has penmanship.
• 44:22
  Speaker 1: It's giving. I'm going to play it. He played off
• 44:25
  Speaker 1: people's weariness of where they lived their patriotism for Scotland
• 44:29
  Speaker 1: because Scotland had no colony. So he's like, I'm also
• 44:32
  Speaker 1: giving the girls a colony. Like, you know, we haven't
• 44:33
  Speaker 1: done a lot of colonization. We've just been over here
• 44:35
  Speaker 1: fighting your hands. We're throwing hands and we've been throwing
• 44:40
  Speaker 1: it back, and we need to get some colonization going on, okay.
• 44:44
  Speaker 1: So he's taking advantage of that, and they're they're all
• 44:48
  Speaker 1: adventure goers apparently, like there was a big part of
• 44:51
  Speaker 1: Scottish pride was like, you know, them being hardy adventure goers. Additionally,
• 44:55
  Speaker 1: a warm, lush paradise offered a very different life than
• 44:59
  Speaker 1: that of the Great Dreary Scotland. As a result, Gregor
• 45:03
  Speaker 1: raised two hundred thousand pounds, which is roughly like two
• 45:08
  Speaker 1: hundred and seventy thousand USD. So you know, they're just
• 45:14
  Speaker 1: converting directly to the bond market, and the value ran
• 45:17
  Speaker 1: up to like one point three million pounds or one
• 45:20
  Speaker 1: point seven over his life about three point six billion
• 45:24
  Speaker 1: pounds wow today, So if we were convert that in
• 45:26
  Speaker 1: today's money, it's like he raised a decent amount of capital.
• 45:30
  Speaker 1: People got god. But his biggest success was in convincing
• 45:34
  Speaker 1: seven ships worth of eager settlers to make their way
• 45:37
  Speaker 1: across the Atlantic. In September eighteen twenty two and January
• 45:41
  Speaker 1: eighteen twenty three, the first two ships, the Hunduras Packet
• 45:45
  Speaker 1: and the Cannersley Castle, left for Poyees, carrying some two
• 45:50
  Speaker 1: hundred and fifty passengers. So he was like, y'all get
• 45:53
  Speaker 1: on this carnival cruise right to booth. The money over
• 45:57
  Speaker 1: boost with.
• 45:59
  Speaker 2: The palm trees, and the subdivision that I made is
• 46:02
  Speaker 2: a gated community.
• 46:03
  Speaker 1: Come down. He's over here talking about this place like
• 46:06
  Speaker 1: it's a Frank Osha song.
• 46:08
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, this man, I don't know. This is the
• 46:12
  Speaker 2: imagination on him, right.
• 46:13
  Speaker 1: So only a third of the settlers survived, and they
• 46:17
  Speaker 1: were eventually picked up by a passing ship and taken
• 46:20
  Speaker 1: to Belize. So when the girls got there, they were dying. Ok. Yeah,
• 46:27
  Speaker 1: he's a murderer too. I don't know, my god, he's
• 46:32
  Speaker 1: an accidental murderer. I mean, I guess he had known
• 46:36
  Speaker 1: he did wars, so maybe he did probably do some murders.
• 46:39
  Speaker 2: But he did some murder and he was like, I
• 46:40
  Speaker 2: want to do some more, and this is the elaborate
• 46:43
  Speaker 2: scheme to do with more murders.
• 46:45
  Speaker 1: So around fifty people returned to London in eighteen twenty
• 46:47
  Speaker 1: three with a story for the press spelling the end
• 46:50
  Speaker 1: of Gregor's reign as the Prince of Poies. Gregor hastily
• 46:54
  Speaker 1: disappeared to France, but he didn't learn his lesson, and
• 46:56
  Speaker 1: Gregor repeated the scheme on the French. This time he
• 47:00
  Speaker 1: managed to raise almost three hundred thousand pounds and even
• 47:04
  Speaker 1: acquired a ship, but French authorities eventually learned news of
• 47:07
  Speaker 1: the voyage and the plans were immediately halted. Gregor was
• 47:10
  Speaker 1: briefly detained, tried for fraud and impossibly good he was acquitted.
• 47:17
  Speaker 1: Oh my god, it's court in eighteen twenty six, and
• 47:20
  Speaker 1: one of his associates was found guilty instead, So he'd
• 47:23
  Speaker 1: appended all of somebody else. Yeah, somebody man is a
• 47:26
  Speaker 1: menace to society truly, And in the coming decade he
• 47:31
  Speaker 1: carried on setting up schemes in London, although not such
• 47:34
  Speaker 1: a grand scale he would until eventually, in eighteen thirty
• 47:37
  Speaker 1: eight he retired to Venezuela to a rapturous hero welcome. Wow, okay,
• 47:43
  Speaker 1: so I do remember when I did this on behind
• 47:44
  Speaker 1: the Bastards and Rob has like way more details than
• 47:47
  Speaker 1: this This is such a long story actually, but this
• 47:50
  Speaker 1: man was going from city to city getting the girl
• 47:53
  Speaker 1: like he was tricking the girls into all types of wars.
• 47:56
  Speaker 1: He was marrying all the girls and using their money
• 47:58
  Speaker 1: to go to parties and print that he was like
• 48:01
  Speaker 1: a war hero.
• 48:02
  Speaker 2: Oh my gosh, this reminds me of the Tender Swindler. No,
• 48:06
  Speaker 2: no spoilers please, Okay.
• 48:09
  Speaker 1: So Gregor McGregor passed away peacefully and katakas at eighteen
• 48:13
  Speaker 1: in eighteen forty five, not at eighteen forty five. He
• 48:15
  Speaker 1: lent to me a thousand no death eighteen forty five.
• 48:20
  Speaker 1: So he was fifty eight years old when he passed away,
• 48:23
  Speaker 1: which I mean in the eighteen forty five times. Yeah. Yeah,
• 48:26
  Speaker 1: why did you say that I love I love people
• 48:30
  Speaker 1: in their fifties. My mom is in her fifty I
• 48:32
  Speaker 1: don't know why I said I. I think it's because
• 48:34
  Speaker 1: he did all the crimes. Yeah. No, he was a
• 48:36
  Speaker 1: bad dude. He was a bad dude. He passed peacefully,
• 48:39
  Speaker 1: like for what. Yeah. No, he didn't pass on peacefully,
• 48:42
  Speaker 1: which would have been fun. He died screaming no he peacefully,
• 48:50
  Speaker 1: which is not not right. And then he was buried
• 48:56
  Speaker 1: with military honors and khadatas. I do want to say
• 48:59
  Speaker 1: because I have a look before we move on to
• 49:01
  Speaker 1: the end of the show. I have a little bit
• 49:03
  Speaker 1: more information about this scam than what's here because I
• 49:06
  Speaker 1: have talked about it. I find not behind the Bastards episode.
• 49:08
  Speaker 1: It's really funny. You'll get a lot of details about
• 49:10
  Speaker 1: this guy. But one thing I do want to say
• 49:12
  Speaker 1: about Booboo City aka Poys is like, not only was
• 49:16
  Speaker 1: like the land not fertile, but like the conditions that
• 49:20
  Speaker 1: these people were living under there, like it was ny.
• 49:22
  Speaker 1: There was no housing, there was no structures. They had
• 49:25
  Speaker 1: to try to build their own houses. They were fighting
• 49:27
  Speaker 1: with each other for resources. It was like like a
• 49:31
  Speaker 1: horror film, like stranded on an island. And then a
• 49:34
  Speaker 1: third of the people died. It was really really bad.
• 49:36
  Speaker 1: People were getting sick, like there was how can you that? Like,
• 49:40
  Speaker 1: how can you live with yourself? Like like what?
• 49:44
  Speaker 2: I guess he didn't live with himself too long much
• 49:46
  Speaker 2: longer after that, but how.
• 49:48
  Speaker 1: Can you do that? Fifty nine? So he can't? He did?
• 49:52
  Speaker 1: He did popos Out City, the city of did that
• 49:55
  Speaker 1: at thirty peoples out? Oh my god? He did? He
• 49:58
  Speaker 1: was thirty for thirty more years after purpose out. Oh

  Speaker 1: my gosh, if hell is real, he is there. And
• 50:05
  Speaker 1: if you don't know what propos how is, isn't that
• 50:09
  Speaker 1: Kevin k fed? Yep? First of all, why sir? But
• 50:15
  Speaker 1: it wasn't. He was trying to make fetch happen and
• 50:17
  Speaker 1: it didn't happen. It did not happen. It did not happen. Oh,
• 50:20
  Speaker 1: he was terrible. I can't even believe he fixed his
• 50:23
  Speaker 1: mouth to say that in his in his Jenco jeans.
• 50:27
  Speaker 1: Is that how you say it? The I don't know.
• 50:30
  Speaker 1: I don't know how to say Jenko. I feel like
• 50:32
  Speaker 1: Jenko is right Jaco and niche like he was. He
• 50:37
  Speaker 1: was really a sight to be a whole scam. Kevin
• 50:42
  Speaker 1: a whole walk and robbery and has been since shar
• 50:45
  Speaker 1: Jackson when he had the baby with shar Jackson and
• 50:47
  Speaker 1: left her pretty spears and then yes, shout out to
• 50:52
  Speaker 1: shout out to Shark Jackson and popos out, But yeah,
• 50:55
  Speaker 1: popos Out was a big scam. And you know McGregor,
• 50:59
  Speaker 1: another gotta have boutmregor before we move on. Is he
• 51:01
  Speaker 1: knew how to dress? Like I told you he would
• 51:03
  Speaker 1: have on all of his medals from all the fake
• 51:05
  Speaker 1: wars that he said that he was a general in
• 51:07
  Speaker 1: and he would go to parties and talk cash shit
• 51:10
  Speaker 1: and be at the sun. Everybody always loves his stories, Like,
• 51:13
  Speaker 1: definitely listen to the Behind the Bastards episode on him
• 51:16
  Speaker 1: because it's a it's a fun one. But guys, it's
• 51:18
  Speaker 1: time for Scammer of the Week. This is where we
• 51:19
  Speaker 1: highlight a Charlattan who's worthy of our praise or maybe not,
• 51:22
  Speaker 1: we'll see. Uh. This week we're talking about one antique
• 51:26
  Speaker 1: store that's gone viral for exposing the whole antique industry.
• 51:30
  Speaker 1: A TikToker, of course, is TikTok, right, It's always TikTok.
• 51:34
  Speaker 1: The girls on TikTok they love violence. They're like every
• 51:38
  Speaker 1: day and me too, messy TikTok. That's where I am
• 51:41
  Speaker 1: right now. Yes, I love it. I love it. Love
• 51:44
  Speaker 1: messy TikTok. Also love like rich stay at home mom TikTok.
• 51:49
  Speaker 1: Find it very fascinating. Oh and also that lady who
• 51:52
  Speaker 1: cleans her house with all the gadgets who gives me anxiety.
• 51:55
  Speaker 1: Love her TikTok. Yes, I thought I thought this was
• 51:57
  Speaker 1: like one big ad. We can talk about a later
• 51:59
  Speaker 1: day and I wouldn't be shocked if it wasn't like
• 52:02
  Speaker 1: there's too much stuff to just have sitt in right
• 52:04
  Speaker 1: have it? Also, it's not cute to have a bathroom
• 52:07
  Speaker 1: that's just how much? And where do you buy it? Yeah?
• 52:11
  Speaker 1: And where did you get that? Because it's not Again,
• 52:13
  Speaker 1: if it isn't that like it's not a good fun
• 52:14
  Speaker 1: because like I don't know where to purchase exist, I
• 52:17
  Speaker 1: do want to know where to purchase. But also I
• 52:19
  Speaker 1: would hate to go in my bathroom and then see
• 52:21
  Speaker 1: all the cleanest supply do hicky megisms.
• 52:25
  Speaker 2: Giving wally like I can't yeah get yeah, yeah, it's
• 52:29
  Speaker 2: too much.
• 52:29
  Speaker 1: Also, everytime she cleans things, I get tired. So I
• 52:32
  Speaker 1: watched those to go to sleep. I'm like, oh girl,
• 52:34
  Speaker 1: we cleaned it. We did it, both of us.
• 52:36
  Speaker 2: And before you go, before you go on tarot TikTok
• 52:38
  Speaker 2: ultimate scam.
• 52:39
  Speaker 1: I can't with them. I can't with tarot TikTok. Are
• 52:42
  Speaker 1: they doing like readings? Yeah the tarot? Are you not
• 52:45
  Speaker 1: on tarot TikTok? No, I'm not on tarot ti Okay.
• 52:49
  Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, they tell you that your person's coming back
• 52:52
  Speaker 2: after they cheated on you.
• 52:54
  Speaker 1: Wow, Okay, maybe they.
• 52:56
  Speaker 2: Are coming back, I hope not right, like, leave me
• 53:01
  Speaker 2: alone at this point.
• 53:04
  Speaker 1: Monogamy isn't everything that everybody maybe.
• 53:07
  Speaker 2: But also just like then don't be in a relationship.
• 53:10
  Speaker 2: That's a whole other conversation.
• 53:11
  Speaker 1: I think, truly so. A TikToker named Angel Muno's was
• 53:18
  Speaker 1: antiquing one weekend when he found a brass Swan set
• 53:21
  Speaker 1: of three with a price tag of two hundred twenty dollars.
• 53:25
  Speaker 1: Thinking the Swans had an interesting story to garner the
• 53:28
  Speaker 1: larger price tag, he flipped one over, but on the
• 53:31
  Speaker 1: bottom found a good Will sticker still stuck stating eight
• 53:34
  Speaker 1: ninety nine. Wow, so they were gonna charge two hundred
• 53:39
  Speaker 1: and twenty dollars for these goals? Ones? Are those from
• 53:42
  Speaker 1: Peer one? They are giving old except for they're not
• 53:45
  Speaker 1: because on the bottom there's that line that looks like
• 53:48
  Speaker 1: they were made in a factory. Yeah, it's giving like
• 53:50
  Speaker 1: Peer one manufactured to look old. Yes, Yeah, it's given
• 53:55
  Speaker 1: like we rubbed some tea on this, so we burned
• 53:58
  Speaker 1: it with a lighter.
• 53:59
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and it was originally twelve ninety nine, right then
• 54:03
  Speaker 2: we put it all sale.
• 54:05
  Speaker 1: Yes. So the overpriced or vastly underpriced once call into
• 54:10
  Speaker 1: question whether the antique store made a simple mistake or
• 54:13
  Speaker 1: took advantage of the general public often being unable to
• 54:17
  Speaker 1: discern what's junk or a priceless heirloom. Even Goodwill is
• 54:21
  Speaker 1: taking it to heart. Wow, I mean look antiquing old
• 54:26
  Speaker 1: things yanaha. I feel about people collecting old things from
• 54:29
  Speaker 1: old times. It makes me concerned, right, Like why do
• 54:33
  Speaker 1: you want these Civil Wars spoons? What are you trying
• 54:35
  Speaker 1: to remember slavery? Are you trying to have a haunted house?
• 54:39
  Speaker 1: Do you want to? Like, I feel like everything's haunted.
• 54:42
  Speaker 2: Like that's like if you know me really well, then
• 54:44
  Speaker 2: you'll know that I'm always saying things are haunted. So
• 54:46
  Speaker 2: I feel like if you go to an antique place,
• 54:48
  Speaker 2: like you just are asking for a haunted house.
• 54:50
  Speaker 1: See, but that would be very ghetto to me. If
• 54:53
  Speaker 1: I died and I was a ghost and then I
• 54:54
  Speaker 1: just haunted spoons, Like, I feel like that's like the
• 54:56
  Speaker 1: worst stace, Like what did I do in life? I
• 54:59
  Speaker 1: want to haunt like old boat museum. I don't want
• 55:02
  Speaker 1: to hot spoons. Right every time kitchen count, I'm like,
• 55:09
  Speaker 1: you're having a yogat booth. That's the worst dB.
• 55:16
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that there's some I mean, those particular
• 55:20
  Speaker 2: swans do not look haunted.
• 55:21
  Speaker 1: Are these swans or ducks? I think there were swans.
• 55:25
  Speaker 1: They don't look like they have spirits in them, but
• 55:28
  Speaker 1: they do look like they're from pure water. Home goods, Yeah,
• 55:31
  Speaker 1: it's definitely giving home goods. You know, it's not quite
• 55:35
  Speaker 1: giving CB two, but it is home home goods. Yeah.
• 55:38
  Speaker 1: Maybe urban home Marshall b could be Marshalls. Yeah, maybe
• 55:43
  Speaker 1: Marshall a good neighborhood. Yeah, in the suburbs, yeah, for sure,
• 55:47
  Speaker 1: for sure. Yeah. But guys, I mean, when it comes
• 55:51
  Speaker 1: to that kind of stuff, the value that you put
• 55:54
  Speaker 1: on something is the value that it has. So if
• 55:57
  Speaker 1: you want to believe that these swans are worth thousands
• 56:00
  Speaker 1: and thousands of dollars, just believe that in your heart because.
• 56:03
  Speaker 2: In your heart way, yeah, I think if you think
• 56:07
  Speaker 2: it's expensive, then that's expensive to you. And that's fine, right.
• 56:11
  Speaker 1: And you can lie to everybody, you know, you all
• 56:13
  Speaker 1: you gotta do is peel loft at eight ninety nine
• 56:15
  Speaker 1: sticker it gets a lion girl, and and tell everybody
• 56:18
  Speaker 1: that it's you got to keep up the lie, right,
• 56:22
  Speaker 1: tell everybody it came from Harriet to house they won't question,
• 56:25
  Speaker 1: they won't won't and if they do, they won't find it,
• 56:27
  Speaker 1: like exactly, they won't find it. If they do, if
• 56:30
  Speaker 1: they go so far as to google it, then they
• 56:32
  Speaker 1: can go to hell right, like why are they googling
• 56:34
  Speaker 1: that hater? Right? Exactly? What? Guys? That brings us to
• 56:37
  Speaker 1: the end of another episode. Shout out to Paul for
