EP. 209 — The Many Faces of Ferdinand Waldo Demara w/ Eric Andre

What’s Poppin’ Con- gregration? This week, comedian Eric Andre joins the show to discuss Ferdinand Waldo Demara, a man of many trades, master of perhaps a few, with the credentials of none. Plus, a team of two computer science students have recently tried to determine if their AI-generated images of women were realistic enough to trick paying customers. Stay Schemin’!
