Buying a car is stressful, but is it worth a stack to hire a middleman to negociate for you? Juruys still out, but comedian and voice of comedy central, David Gborie is here to help Laci get to the bottom of this scam. Along the way these long time friends discuss that time David bought fancy art in the middle of Colorado and why credit scores are a scham to withhold wealth from the Black community.

The iconic stand-up comedian Ms. Pat makes her debut on Scam Goddess. Laci tries to gently break the news that the D.A.R.E. program was designed by the same man who was in charge when Rodney King was beaten by the police and who invented SWAT. Ms. Pat discusses sharing a Sears credit card, past scheming, and Smokey the Bear.

BookTok used to be the place where readers went to argue about their favorite authors, ship the gays, and learn which creatures their friends were sexually attracted to, and now, like all good things, it's being used to scam. Writer and comedian Ashley Ray joins Laci to discuss the Fyre Fest of book link-ups. A shared cabin, no food, in the middle of the wilderness could be a good time if properly funded; instead, it left a pack of women and one very nice male author hungry and feeling ripped off. Will there be justice or a second round of schemes?
