Carlos Henrique Raposo (born 2 April 1963), commonly known as Carlos Kaiser, is a Brazilian con artist and former footballer who played as a striker.[citation needed] Although his abilities were far short of professional standard, he managed to sign for numerous teams during his decade-long career. He never actually played a regular game, the closest occurrence ending in a red card whilst warming up, and hid his limited ability with injuries, frequent team changes, and other ruses.[1]

This week Brian Mix stops by to catch up on his recent barnstorming tour across the country. The who, what, where and when of the events and conventions he hit leave the other Joes seriously jealous of Brian's “retirement.” Barry and Dave also attended a con , yes just one. But, based on their report, TerrificCon sounds … well, terrific.

We are feeling fine because it is episode 159 and we've got some great history for you! Today, Kat covers the larger than life Mary Fields.

WHOA!!!  Here's our 75th episode, not including bonus episodes!  I can't believe it - well, yeah, I can, whatever. This week we're keeping The Professionals Series going with our favorite Grifters - Con Men/Con Women, etc.  This started out being a very easy list for me, but then again I was trying not to be overly obvious.  I did trump my sister on a couple of movies, though - one of which I could have sworn we'd watched together, but I'll be quite excited to watch them with her when I visit in April. If you've tried to send us an email in the past few weeks, you probably thought we were making up that address...well, we weren't, I just forgot to renew our domain - oops.  I'm hoping that explains the lack of engagement from our community, LOL. So that email is:  hello@thetopfivepodcast.com.  Let us know if there's a topic you want us to take on!!

She is upset about The King and The Duke separating their slaves. Huck can't help but tell her that the slaves will be back together again within 2 weeks. The jig is up and Huck decides that he needs to tell the truth to the girl. He asks her if she can go stay with a friend for 4 days if he tells her the truth, and she agrees. So Huck tells her all about how he met the Conmen, and how they have been scamming the whole family so they can get a nice payday. He tells Mary-Jane that what she needs to do is go to her friend's house and stay there until around 11, and he says that if Huck is home there will be a candle lit in the house, and if he has managed to escape from the conmen then there will be no candle. He also says that he will leave her a note, saying where the money should be hid, and how he can prove that the Conmen are not actually her relatives by writing a note about “The Royal Nonsuch.” After Mary-Jane takes off, Huck goes to tell the other girls about Mary-Jane's departure, making up a lie about someone being very ill with a extreme “mumps.” At first the girls are sceptical of Huck's disease, but in the end, he is able to convince them, and they go to tell their “Uncles” that Mary-Jane has gone to see some friends so that they don't suspect anything strange about her absence. So the auction to sell the house starts, and as it goes on the people hear a calling from down the road, it seems that the “real” uncles have arrived…SUPPORT THE SHOWGet SurfShark and protect yourself online today VPN: ⁠⁠https://get.surfshark.net/aff_c?offer_id=926&aff_id=20389⁠⁠ Antivirus: ⁠⁠https://get.surfshark.net/aff_c?offer_id=934&aff_id=20389⁠⁠ Get data brokers to stop selling your information with: Incogni: ⁠⁠https://get.incogni.io/aff_c?offer_id=1219&aff_id=20389⁠⁠ *COMIC* By @Valenangelr ⁠https://www.instagram.com/valenangelr⁠ *SOCIAL*INSTAGRAM: ⁠https://www.instagram.com/theessentialreads⁠ TWITTER: ⁠http://twitter.com/isaacbirchall98⁠ KO-Fi: ⁠https://ko-fi.com/theessentialreads⁠ STORE: ⁠https://the-essential-reads.myshopify.com/⁠Support the showThank you so much for listening, if you want to support the me go to any of these links :)*Social*SHOPIFY: https://the-essential-reads.myshopify.com/INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/theessentialreadsTWITTER: http://twitter.com/isaacbirchall98Ko-Fi: https://ko-fi.com/theessentialreads

“It's just as easy to make big money as little money. In my profession, a hundred dollars is just chicken feed. We think in thousands, not tens. Experience has taught me that it is as easy to separate a sucker – the right sucker – from five thousand dollars as from fifty. We always offered our services to well-to-do men, holding out the promise that their investments were certain to net them profit in three to four figures, at least – and that's the real bait for the sucker – particularly if he's the close-fisted kind that always wants something for nothing. Yes, there always was a lot of satisfaction as well as cash profit in trimming some old skin flint who would rob his grandmother if he had a chance.” - Doc Bags; a legendary con artist and frontier gambler who plied his trade throughout the West. Although Doc is largely forgotten today, his lasting legacy was his most notorious apprentice, a young man from Georgia who'd come to be known as Soapy Smith. You see it's on the streets of Denver that Smith learned all Doc Bags had to teach. And when it came time for Doc to move on, young Soapy took his spot as the undisputed kingpin of the mile-high city. But he wasn't a gunman, at least not really. Instead of colt revolvers, Soapy's weapon of choice was a quick wit coupled with a silver tongue, a whole helluva lot of charisma, and the magical ability to make people see and believe things that did not exist; all of which would earn him the title of King of the Frontier Conmen. That said, Soapy certainly wasn't afraid of resorting to violence if the situation called for it. With an army of thugs at his disposal, Smith would face down more than a few deadly killers. And like many other icons of the Old West, Soapy would ultimately go down in a blaze of gunfire.  They say fortune favors the bold and they don't get much bolder than Soapy Smith, a charming rogue who spent his life operating in the shadows, leaving behind a legend as complex as the frontier he called home.  Check out the website for more true tales from the Old West https://www.wildwestextra.com/   Email me! https://www.wildwestextra.com/contact/   Buy me a coffee! https://www.buymeacoffee.com/wildwest   Free Newsletter! https://wildwestjosh.substack.com/   Join Into History for ad-free and bonus content! https://intohistory.supercast.com/   King Con: The Story of Soapy Smith by Jane G.

Willie Nelson left Nashville and reinvented himself in Austin, Texas as the ultimate outsider. It was a metamorphosis from freak flag flier to mainstream mainstay that is rife with tales of drug smuggling, arson, and international run-ins with Johnny Law. Not to mention a lifelong association with grifters, con men, and thieves, and how that led not only to one of the most publicized busts of a superstar in the 20th century, but also to an extended family fueled by karma and loyalty. This episode contains themes that may be disturbing to some listeners, including suicide.
