S02E08 - That Damn “Catch Me If You Can” Man With Molly Thomas, Part 1 of 2

This week comedian Molly Thomas joins Caitlin to discuss liar extraordinaire Frank Abagnale. 

Remember the book and hit movie Catch Me if You Can? Turns out most of it is fake and we can’t trust anything this scammer has proudly reported. He conned people into thinking he conned people. It’s a nesting doll of cons! Molly brings copious notes about fake stewardesses and summer camps. 

We have a special two part episode because there is just too much con to cover in one ep.
