This is a great podcast but the casual and flippant discussion of serious crimes doesn't sit right with me.

Enjoyable & interesting. Light & uncontroversial true-crime fare with unusually devious, greedy & despicable villains.

The stories themselves are interesting, but the two Canadian chicks running the show are so ditzy and embarrassingly uninformed when they opine, I want to rip my earbuds off.
You never really know someone…especially online. In today’s world, the power of influence can be the quickest path to money and fame, and it often ends in ruin. These are the stories of the world’s most insidious Scamfluencers. And we are their prey. On Wondery’s new weekly series, join co-hosts Scaachi Koul and Sarah Hagi as they unpack epic stories of deception from the worlds of social media, fashion, finance, health, and wellness. These influencers claim to be everything from charismatic healers to trusted financial insiders to experts in dating. They cast spells over millions. Why do we believe them, and how does our culture allow them to thrive? From Black Swan Murder to a fake social media influencer to an audacious Hollywood Ponzi schemer, each season will take the listener along the twists and turns, the impact on victims, and what’s left when the facade falls away.
