Friend of the show and Upright Citizens Brigade comedian, Lydia Hensler, joins us to talk about a truly bonkers historic scammer named Ann O’Delia Diss Debar. Well, that was one of Ann’s names. She also went by Editha Salomen, Swami Laura Horos, and had a different alias in every state, tbh. Hated by Harry Houdini, Ann was a legendary con-artist who ran scams all over the world. We also discuss aura readings, making love to cabbage, cults, and the first female candidate for president, Victoria Claflin Woodhull. (It wasn’t Hilary Clinton? We’ve been scammed!)
