George Santos is trying to turn a mountain of lies into a pot of gold, will he succeed or has the American public had enough of him? In this episode, Kiki dissects all the known lies of the disgraced Republican Congressman and how Santos got away with so much absurdity for as long as he did. Later, Kiki is joined by Betches co-founder, Sami Sage, to discuss Santos’ breaking interview with comedian Ziwe Fumudoh.
