Added 2024-12-21 14:00:10 +0000 UTCThis week Trevor sits down solo to discuss the scams being run on both sides of the aisle; but how they are ran are grossly different. With a deep dive into examples, this episode looks into the concept that just because you cant see the grift, doesn't mean its not there but now it appears the average American is hoping to get in on the con.
