EP. 283 — The Brad Pitt Love Scammers w/ Jessie Woo

Love is never easy, and it should never come with a price tag. CON-gregation, get ready for a blessing because Laci is joined by the one and only content queen and makeup maestro, Jessie Woo (host of Jess A Couple Things Podcast). Together, they dive into the wild story of a French woman who was scammed out of $850,000 in her pursuit of love with a man she believed was Brad Pitt. But Fake Brad wasn’t the only imposter looking for love; there were also scammers posing as Keanu Reeves, better known as Keanu Thieves. Stay schemin’!
