Notriously riddled with scandal, Penn State recently upped the anti with a fraternity led coke ring. Ron Funches joined Laci Mosley for a dive into the horrors of campus life in America. Together they try to figure out who else might have snitched, how long you can stay on the line when you know about the drug operation in the basement, and why Penn State became a party school.

If you can't buy a modeling career for $4.6 million, you simply weren't meant to strut runways or grace Vogue's pages. But that didn't stop Chanise Coyne from scamming parents across Florida out of millions, hoping their children would hit the big time. Coyne had no photos in her hands. Actor and comedian Brandon Kyle Goodman joins Laci Mosley for a mind-boggling trip into the Facebook pages, artist squabbles, and unbelievable bank accounts of America's wannabe models.

Surprising no one, golf courses remain racist, sexist, and overall just horribly hateful to any non-white, non-cisgendered, queer human hoping to hit the links. While some things have evolved, not all is fair in love and sports. Shaddowy golf brokers are out here stealing tee times! Comedian Zach Noe Towers joins us to talk about one of the most petty schemes to happen at a private club here in Los Angeles. Plus, we take a call from a member of the con-gregation who just barely survives a phone scam.
