EP. 19 — The Crooked Carpet Cleaner with Ronnie Adrian

Happy Black History Month Con-gregation! We didn’t change anything (I’m black all the time) but it’s still a special episode when our homie Ronnie Adrian (White Women, Key & Peele) drops by! This week we explore that absolute MESS of carpet cleaning ponzi schemer, Barry Jay Minkow!

*In this ep I mention Amber Guyger got 5 years in jail. It was actually 10 years with parole eligibility at 5 my bad but hey, as long as she’s locked up!
