Podcasts about scams

Chris Markowski, the Watchdog on Wall Street, discusses the pervasive issues in the financial landscape, including government involvement in the economy, the failures of educational systems, and the challenges in the job market. He critiques the role of subsidies and government programs, emphasizing their negative impact on various sectors. Markowski also proposes solutions for improving education and employment opportunities, while warning against the pitfalls of debt and poor investment strategies. The discussion extends to the volatile nature of Bitcoin and the risks associated with financial scams.

We open by tracking our video money and mocking the chef who quit Elon's "epic" bacon diner, before diving into the IN THE NEWS segment where plummeting crypto and Nvidia stocks confirm everything is a sham; we cover Bezos's new $6.2 billion AI flop, a sleeping Tesla Robotaxi driver, and why OpenAI's new school tools are a Recipe for Idiocracy with students who can't read; in MEDIA CANDY, we tear apart Disney's lazy Moana remake; THE DARK SIDE WITH DAVE we discuss Zork going open source and why movies just don't feel real anymore before CLOSING SHOUT-OUTS where we are mourning Mani from the Stone Roses, and wishing Bjork a very metal 60th.We start with a FOLLOW UP on our channel's performance, wading through the garbage pile of Monetization questions and Stats, including the scourge of Shorts—because apparently, that's what we do now. Speaking of people running from trouble, former Treasury Secretary Larry Summers is ditching his OpenAI board seat after a fresh batch of cringey Jeffrey Epstein emails surfaced. Meanwhile, the financial world is having a meltdown: Nvidia's Stock is Falling Again after its earnings report, exposing the fact that almost Yet Another Study Shows That Most Companies Aren't Making Any Money Off AI, and Bitcoin is Getting Absolutely Crushed Right Now, which we happily remind you will Trigger the Next Financial Crisis. Don't worry, Jeff Bezos will head a new engineering-focused AI startup because the world clearly needs more tech billionaires throwing money at things they don't understand, while Apple is reportedly getting ready to replace Tim Cook.The tech-bro corruption parade continues as a former DOJ official points out that Trump's Crypto Pardon of the Binance co-founder is exactly what it looks like, and Elon's pet AI, Grok Insists That Elon Musk Is More Physically Fit Than LeBron James and better at everything else, proving the bot has been sampling its boss's Adderall. Even though ChatGPT Achieves a New Level of Intelligence by finally letting you disable its em-dash addiction, companies like Intuit are integrating its tax and accounting products with ChatGPT—because who doesn't want an AI-powered tax audit? This all dovetails nicely with the news that OpenAI is launching ChatGPT for Teachers' right as students' math skills hit a low, leading to a literal Recipe for Idiocracy where elite college students Can't Read Books. The whole thing is broken, including Tesla's so-called Robotaxi, where a Passenger Alarmed When Tesla Robotaxi “Safety” Driver Falls Completely Asleep at the Wheel. On a lighter note, we check out the new trailers for The Witcher S4, Frankenstein, and Project Hail Mary in MEDIA CANDY, and tear apart the absolutely unnecessary live-action Moana teaser, before mentioning the biggest drama launch on Apple TV, Pluribus.Next up is THE DARK SIDE WITH DAVE, where our tireless security guru Dave Bittner throws in some random facts, like Microsoft making Zork I, II, and III open source and videos on why the iOS Keyboard is Broken and Why Movies Just Don't Feel "Real” Anymore, and we discuss Thanksgiving plans. Finally, in CLOSING SHOUT-OUTS, we end with a shout-out to our generous PATREON supporters and PAYPAL/STRIPE donors, mourn the passing of Stone Roses and Primal Scream bassist Mani, and wish the incomparable Bjork a milestone 60th birthday.Watch on YouTube: https://youtu.be/tWM83ra7Qp8Sponsors:Private Internet Access - Go to GOG.Show/vpn and sign up today.

Where is the outrage? Where is the accountability? Where is the media? This is what President Trump has been warning about for years — and the regime mocked him. Now the truth is undeniable.

At the beginning of the year, our teams redoubled our efforts to go after these networks and eliminate them. We have more than 300 investigations connected to this network going on nationwide, as we speak, and that number is growing. It is a top priority for us. Out of @FBIBaltimore - recently our teams worked with partners to arrest an individual who had allegedly targeted 5 victims – one as young as 13. The individual is now in federal custody, and we expect more information to be released on this case soon. Out of Arizona - recently, we had another case – where an indictment revealed an individual in federal custody had been found allegedly targeting kids as an affiliate of 764. The 9 victims involved were between 11-15 years old. Some of the allegations involve distributing child pornography, cyberstalking, animal crushing, and even conspiring to provide material support to terrorists. I cannot emphasize enough - this is a major issue in America that not enough people know about. We are asking all parents to please be on guard – check in with your kids and monitor their internet usage. Consider your options for putting safeguards in place that limit what these networks can reach. In the meantime, this @FBI will keep working day and night to destroy this network. It is a top priority. We are making progress, but the work isn't done. God bless America, and all those who defend Her.

Perhaps the truth about these Democrats, and their associations with Jeffrey Epstein, will soon be revealed, because I HAVE JUST SIGNED THE BILL TO RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILES! As everyone knows, I asked Speaker of the House Mike Johnson, and Senate Majority Leader John Thune, to pass this Bill in the House and Senate, respectively. Because of this request, the votes were almost unanimous in favor of passage. At my direction, the Department of Justice has already turned over close to fifty thousand pages of documents to Congress. Do not forget — The Biden Administration did not turn over a SINGLE file or page related to Democrat Epstein, nor did they ever even speak about him. Democrats have used the “Epstein” issue, which affects them far more than the Republican Party, in order to try and distract from our AMAZING Victories, including THE GREAT BIG BEAUTIFUL TAX CUT BILL, Strong Borders, No Men in Women's Sports or Transgender for Everyone, ending DEI, stopping Biden's Record Setting Inflation, lowering Prices, Biggest Tax and Regulation Cuts in History, ending EIGHT Wars, rebuilding our Military, knocking out Iran's Nuclear capability, getting Trillions of Dollars INVESTED in the U.S.A., creating the “HOTTEST” Country anywhere in the World, and even delivering a HUGE DEFEAT to the Democrats on the recent Shutdown Disaster. For years our Great Nation has had to endure RUSSIA, RUSSIA, RUSSIA, UKRAINE, UKRAINE, UKRAINE, IMPEACHMENT HOAX #1, IMPEACHMENT HOAX #2, and many other Democrat created Witch Hunts and Scams, all of which have been so terrible and divisive for our Country, and have been done to confuse, deflect, and distract from the GREAT JOB that Republicans, and the Trump Administration, are doing.

A call from someone claiming to be from the Federal Trade Commission sends Linda on a quest to transfer $25,000, believing that she is assisting them in catching a criminal. The caller warns her not to tell anyone what she's up to, but perceptive bank employees at multiple branches suspect a scam and throw up roadblocks. Meanwhile, they alert Linda's children, who work quickly to get between their mother and the criminals.

Aging with ADHD often hides in the background of our conversations, even though so many of us feel its effects every day. In this episode, we bring it forward with help from Jami Shapiro, whose work sits right at the intersection of ADHD, transitions, and later-life planning. She's a senior move manager, ADHD coach, and the voice behind Grandma Has ADHD. Her mix of humor, candor, and lived experience sets the tone for a conversation that feels both comforting and disarming.Jami's ADHD diagnosis arrived in her mid-40s, long after she had built a career, raised children, and weathered major life changes. The bigger surprise came later: realizing her mother had been living with ADHD as well, completely undiagnosed into her seventies. That discovery reshaped not only Jami's understanding of her family history but also the emotional patterns she had carried for decades. It softened old misunderstandings and gave her and her mother a way to talk to each other that hadn't existed before.From there, the conversation widens into the many transitions that come with midlife and beyond—downsizing, empty rooms once filled by children, changing routines, and the simple pressure of making decisions when every choice feels weighty. Jami explains how emotional intensity, uncertainty, and decision fatigue show up more sharply for ADHD adults, especially as responsibilities shift and long-established structures fall away. She walks us through what makes these transitions overwhelming and what actually helps when “just start somewhere” doesn't land.We also spend time on the parent–child dynamic that emerges when adult children try to help their aging parents with organizing or downsizing. Jami gives a clear look at why these roles easily tangle, how shame gets triggered on both sides, and why a neutral guide often makes the work calmer for everyone involved. Her stories from years of senior move management reveal patterns that many families will recognize instantly.There's also a practical side to this conversation: how to create a floor plan before a move, how to sort sentimental objects without spiraling, how to use photos and “family show-and-tell” conversations to preserve memories, and how to stay grounded when technology becomes a barrier. Jami talks openly about scams, tech overwhelm, and the very real worries older adults carry about cognitive decline—topics that are easier to avoid than to name, but essential for keeping ourselves and our loved ones safe.The heart of this episode is simple: learning about ADHD later in life doesn't erase the years behind you, but it can change how you interpret them. It can ease old guilt, untangle family stories, and give you permission to approach the next chapter with more clarity and less self-blame. Jami's work is full of that spirit, and her guidance makes the process of aging with ADHD feel less isolating and more like something we can navigate together.Links & NotesJami ShapiroSupport the Show on PatreonDig into the podcast Shownotes Database (00:00) - Welcome to Taking Control: The ADHD Podcast (01:02) - Support the Show on Patreon (01:48) - Introducing Jami Shapiro • Aging with ADHD (11:04) - Transitions (21:21) - Scams and Cognitive Decline (25:48) - Giving Up vs Letting Go (30:54) - Where to Start?

“If I had been enslaved for a year or two, I might not be able to believe in humanity any more.” “I am a victim of modern slavery.” These chilling words come from a Taiwanese female lured by a fake job offer, only to be sold into a scam compound in Cambodia. She is not alone. She is one of thousands deceived into this industry—people who left home hoping for a better life, only to find themselves trapped in a living nightmare. Scam: Inside Southeast Asia's Cybercrime Compounds (Verso Books, 2025) arrives at a critical moment, shedding light on one of the world's fastest-growing criminal economies: Southeast Asia's online scam industry. Running the gamut from the notorious “pig butchering” romance scams to elaborate online extortion and investment frauds, this system has transformed parts of the region into global hubs of cybercrime. Meticulously researched and grounded in years of fieldwork, Scam offers an unflinching look into the prison-like compounds that have mushroomed across multiple countries. Within these walled complexes, victims are often coerced into becoming perpetrators—trapped in what the authors describe as “compound capitalism,” a chilling hybrid of enslavement and exploitation. Scam traces how small-scale online gambling rings evolved into an international “scamdemic,” accelerated by the disruptions of COVID-19. It examines the “victim–offender trap”, a moral and psychological paradox that makes empathy difficult for outsiders. The result is a deeply human investigation into how modern slavery adapts to digital capitalism. The authors uncover the operations of scam compounds across Southeast Asia. In my interview with Ling and Ivan, what stood out was not only their depth of knowledge but their compassion. They used their skills to build trust with victims, gather evidence, and, in some cases, help orchestrate rescues. Their work is both rigorous and profoundly humane, illuminating a crisis that grows more complex each day. Though many of those involved—both perpetrators and victims—are ethnically Chinese, the networks now span continents. The scam compounds are a global phenomenon, built on economic desperation, weak governance, and digital interconnectivity. Scam is more than an exposé. It is a call to action and a vital first step toward understanding a new form of global exploitation—where modern technology and ancient cruelty combine to create a system that enslaves the vulnerable and profits from despair. Ling Li is pursuing a PhD at Ca' Foscari University of Venice with a focus on the role of technology in enabling modern slavery and human trafficking in East and Southeast Asia. In the past few years, she has been providing support to survivors of scam compounds in Southeast Asia, interacting with local and international civil society organisations to bring them relief and help with repatriation. Ivan Franceschini is a lecturer at the Asia Institute, University of Melbourne. His current research focuses on ethnic Chinese transnational crime, especially in the field of online fraud. He co-founded the Made in China Journal and The People's Map of Global China/ Global China Pulse. His books include Proletarian China (2022), Global China as Method (2022), and Afterlives of Chinese Communism (2019). He also co-directed the documentaries Dreamwork China (2011) and Boramey (2021). Mark Bo is a researcher who has been based in East and Southeast Asia for 2 decades. He has worked globally with local civil society partners to monitor and advocate for improved environmental and social practices in development projects and utilises his background in corporate and financial mapping to investigate stakeholders involved in Asia's online gambling, fraud, and money laundering industries.

Join us as we dig into one of the biggest deceptions in modern science — the myth of uniformitarianism! Eric Hovind, and our guest, Dr. Terry Mortensen, will expose how this idea, first popularized by Charles Lyell in the 1800's, completely rewrote how people view Earth's history, and not for the better. Before Lyell, many great scientists studied the world through the lens of Scripture, recognizing the Bible as the true record of Earth's past. But when Lyell began assuming that “the present is the key to the past,” he planted seeds of doubt that grew into today's evolutionary thinking. His assumptions about ancient rocks didn't just change geology, they helped lead generations away from believing God's Word. We trace how this intellectual rebellion against the Bible took root and continues to shape modern science, culture, and education. With help from the late Milt Marcy's eye-opening book, “Exposing the Hidden Roots of the Evolutionary Agenda: The Emperors Who Had No Clothes,” we'll pull back the curtain on one of history's greatest scientific smokescreens. Don't miss this powerful episode as we uncover how a few flawed ideas about the past set the stage for a full-blown war on biblical truth, and why it's time to return to the real foundation — God's Word.   Watch this Podcast on Video at: https://creationtoday.org/on-demand-classes/the-geological-scam-that-hijacked-science-creation-today-show-450/  Join Eric LIVE each Wednesday at 12 Noon CT for conversations with Experts.

The Climate Change agenda has shifted far beyond environmental concerns. What's sold as “saving the planet” has become a global movement aimed at controlling personal freedom, restricting property rights, driving inflation, and reshaping society through ideological narratives rooted in early Marxist thought.In this powerful episode of The Truth Central, Dr. Jerome Corsi speaks with Brian Sussman, author of Climate Cult: Exposing and Defeating Their War on Life, Liberty, and Property. Together, they uncover:✔️ The Marxist origins of Climate Change activism✔️ How modern environmentalism evolved into a political cult✔️ Why elites push policies that damage free nations✔️ How “climate justice” became a tool for wealth transfer and social control✔️ The global network behind today's Climate Change agenda✔️ Why so many followers defend the movement despite overwhelming factual contradictionsThis is a deep investigation into how the “Climate Crisis” narrative became a weapon against liberty — and why exposing it is essential for preserving free societies.

Episode #434: “I don't see how there could be a new social contract for a post-war, post-conflict Myanmar.” With this stark observation, Henning Glaser sets the tone for his analysis of the country's turmoil. Glaser is a German legal scholar based at Thammasat University in Bangkok, where he co-founded the German-Southeast Asian Center of Excellence for Public Policy and Good Governance. His work spans Asia, but Myanmar has become one of his deepest commitments. Since the early 2010s, he has organized dialogues and seminars on the country's political transition, and after the 2021 coup, his institute shifted to documenting and analyzing the descent into conflict. Glaser describes the future in bleak terms. The junta shows no sign of collapse, while the opposition remains fragmented. Ethnic armed groups pursue divergent roadmaps, preventing unity around a federal constitution. Glaser admires the energy of younger activists and local governance experiments, yet doubts these can form a coherent national framework. He cites Kurdistan in Iraq as a warning: local stability without broader resolution. Geopolitics, he stresses, makes matters worse. “It is inevitable that a primary focus on geopolitics is creating tension and border conflicts and wars. We see that everywhere,” he says. Myanmar, he argues, is reduced to a pawn in a larger contest between China, Russia, India, and an increasingly disengaged West. The result is proxy struggles that entrench the conflict. Organized crime further compounds the chaos. Scam centers, narcotics, arms smuggling, and trafficking create a criminal economy that fuels the war. “If you have this involvement of organized crime and an organized criminal economy, then you can sustain that for a very, very long time. And that is also why a long stalemate,” he warns. Glaser dismisses upcoming elections as hollow and recalls Myanmar's earlier transition as a “democratic façade with a military heart.” Despite his dark assessment, he ends by saluting the resilience of activists and diaspora communities, whose determination to master law and policy remains, in his view, remarkable. “I totally admire all the young people, middle-aged people, and older people in the diaspora who put incredible efforts to keep up and to gain legal knowledge, to draft laws, to understand how to translate policies into law, how to interpret laws. That is remarkable.”

The scam compounds are a global phenomenon, built on economic desperation, weak governance, and digital interconnectivity. Scam is more than an exposé. It is a call to action and a vital first step toward understanding a new form of global exploitation—where modern technology and ancient cruelty combine to create a system that enslaves the vulnerable and profits from despair. Ling Li is pursuing a PhD at Ca' Foscari University of Venice with a focus on the role of technology in enabling modern slavery and human trafficking in East and Southeast Asia. In the past few years, she has been providing support to survivors of scam compounds in Southeast Asia, interacting with local and international civil society organisations to bring them relief and help with repatriation. Ivan Franceschini is a lecturer at the Asia Institute, University of Melbourne. His current research focuses on ethnic Chinese transnational crime, especially in the field of online fraud. He co-founded the Made in China Journal and The People's Map of Global China/ Global China Pulse. His books include Proletarian China (2022), Global China as Method (2022), and Afterlives of Chinese Communism (2019). He also co-directed the documentaries Dreamwork China (2011) and Boramey (2021). Mark Bo is a researcher who has been based in East and Southeast Asia for 2 decades. He has worked globally with local civil society partners to monitor and advocate for improved environmental and social practices in development projects and utilises his background in corporate and financial mapping to investigate stakeholders involved in Asia's online gambling, fraud, and money laundering industries. Bing Wang receives her PhD at the University of Leeds in 2020. Her research interests include the exploration of overseas Chinese cultural identity and critical heritage studies.

In this episode of The Wright Report, Bryan breaks down the coming release of Jeffrey Epstein's files, explosive new evidence of his ties to intelligence services, and the political crossfire now engulfing both parties. He then turns to a sweeping set of immigration updates, covering violent attacks on federal officers, deportation operations in Charlotte and New York City, a federal judge blocking National Guard deployments, and a little known federal program that lets foreign graduates stay in the United States at lower wages than American college students. The show closes with encouraging updates on soybeans, beef supply, and groundbreaking Alzheimer's research. Epstein Files Set for Release: The House passed a bill instructing the Department of Justice to release its Epstein files, with President Trump expected to sign it shortly. Speaker Mike Johnson warned that the measure risks exposing victims, revealing child abuse images, and forcing declassification of intelligence records that may contain sensitive sources and methods. His comments suggest that U.S. intelligence agencies hold Epstein-related material, fueling long-standing questions about whether Epstein worked with the CIA, Mossad, or European services. Political Fallout for Both Parties: Republican Marjorie Taylor Greene reignited her feud with Trump after claiming he blocked earlier Epstein legislation, while Democrats are facing scrutiny over Virgin Islands Delegate Stacey Plaskett, who coordinated with Epstein during a 2019 House hearing. Newly released emails also show Epstein spent years trying to damage Trump after their personal split, which Bryan argues suggests Trump had no criminal exposure. Violence Against ICE and Border Patrol Surges: Vehicle rammings and attacks on federal immigration officers are up more than one thousand percent compared to last year. Bryan links the trend to incendiary rhetoric from national Democrats, including Senator Chris Murphy's statement that Americans must do "whatever is necessary" to stop Trump. Charlotte and New York Become Deportation Flashpoints: Operation Charlotte's Web caused twenty one thousand students to stay home this week, a sign of how many families are in the country unlawfully. Bryan explains how deportations could free up thousands of homes for working class Americans. In New York, ICE is preparing major operations after city leaders blocked federal agents from accessing Rikers Island, choosing to release violent offenders instead of handing them over for deportation. Judge Blocks National Guard in Memphis: A Tennessee judge ruled that neither President Trump nor the governor can deploy the National Guard to support anti crime operations in Memphis. Her decision contradicts data showing that federal surges dropped homicides, robberies, and shootings throughout the city. Bryan calls the ruling pure political activism that harms the very communities it claims to protect. Texas Redistricting and California Citizenship Rush: A federal court struck down Texas's new GOP drawn congressional map. In California, migrants rushed to obtain citizenship before a harder civics test took effect, a change Trump implemented to restore basic knowledge of American history and law. Foreign Nationals Driving Trucks and Spreading Risk: DHS arrested an Uzbek national living in Pennsylvania who obtained a commercial driver's license despite ties to jihadist recruitment. Bryan warns that thousands of foreign drivers, many without proper vetting, may be transporting hazardous materials across the country. OPT Program Exposes American Graduates: Senator Eric Schmitt highlighted a federal program called Optional Practical Training that allows foreign graduates to work for three years without payroll taxes, making them cheaper to hire than American college students. Bryan says the program, along with H-1B visas, is shutting young Americans out of the workforce. Good News on Food and Science: China appears to have resumed large soybean purchases from U.S. farmers, and dairy ranchers are increasing beef production with new cross bred calves. Researchers also discovered a muscle released molecule that protects mice from Alzheimer's even when genetic risk is present, pointing to potential therapies and reaffirming the power of exercise.   "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32     Keywords: Epstein files DOJ release, Speaker Mike Johnson intelligence concerns, Stacey Plaskett Epstein texts, ICE vehicle attacks Charlotte's Web, New York Rikers Island ICE block, Memphis National Guard ruling, Texas redistricting court decision, California citizenship test rush, Uzbek CDL jihad arrest, Optional Practical Training OPT reform, China soybean purchases, beef on dairy calves supply, Cathepsin B Alzheimer's study

In this Prof Responds episode of Critical Magic Theory, Professor Julian Wamble dives into your discussion about Albus Dumbledore and asks some of the biggest questions in the Harry Potter series: is Dumbledore a brilliant strategist, a reactive improviser, or a man whose schemes, scams, plots, and plans are held together by privilege and the “greater good”? Drawing on listener comments from the Patreon post-episode chat, Julian explores how we interpret Dumbledore's power, his choices, and the moral complexities that shape his relationship to Harry Potter. Along the way, we examine the fine line between Gryffindor recklessness and care, and reflect on how Dumbledore's past may shape the decisions that define the wizarding world.

Are Boomers Hoarding Wealth? And Why the Epstein Bill Is a Scam | Karel Cast 25-151 Baby Boomers are holding onto their money—and most plan to spend it all before they die. So are Boomers being selfish and blocking the next generation from building generational wealth? Or is it their right to enjoy the money they worked for without owing a financial legacy to their kids? Today we dig into the debate: responsibility, entitlement, and why Americans are so obsessed with inheritance. Plus, the so-called “Epstein bill” is nothing but political theater. Speaker Mike Johnson is already pushing Senate amendments to block the release of names—framing it as “protecting new victims” from “unproven allegations.” Translation: we will never see the full list. It's a distraction, a grift, and another example of Washington pretending to act while protecting powerful men. And in a surprise twist, Bill Maher and I officially have something in common now… and you may be shocked to hear what it is.

Send us a textHeavy feelings that don't match the moment, arguments that escalate out of nowhere, kids who suddenly can't sleep alone—these aren't always random. I open up about dark forces as subtle energetic parasites that thrive in stress and exhaustion, and I share grounded ways to recognize and remove them without fear, theatrics, or dependency on expensive rituals.We start by separating Hollywood myth from daily reality. Think of it like energetic hygiene: just as bacteria and viruses operate unseen yet influence the body, energetic interference leans on our weak moments and magnifies what already hurts. I explain why prayer and sage may center you but won't “evict an intruder,” how to command your space with clarity, and why reflection is the secret lever—heal the pattern a force hooks into and clearing becomes swift and final. We also take on predatory practices that use fear to sell fixes. You'll hear a frank breakdown of red flags—vague diagnoses, costly “multi-day prayers,” and offers that leave you dependent rather than confident. Instead, I map practical steps to build sovereignty: daily baseline checks, decisive clearing language, and relationship protocols that keep conflict from becoming a portal. If you're ready to feel like yourself again, protect your energy, and lead your family from steadiness, this conversation brings clarity, tools, and a path forward.Resources mentioned: Light it UP!
