This week, Laci welcomes Rachel Bilson and Olivia Allen (Broad Ideas Podcast, The O.C.) for a steamy summertime episode discussing John Santilli, a Hollywood producer who stole more than $4 million from investors who believed they were buying a stake in the Magic Mike Live strip show in Las Vegas but were financing his tour of the sleaziest casinos instead. The trio debates whether men in dungarees are hot or if it'd be sexier for them to hold puppies. Plus, they dive into Channing Tatum's past before he was Magic Mike on the big screens.

They're lying, Laci! You need to __redacted__. You know what you need to do.
this is one of my favorites so far 🤣
lacey tries way too hard. she's funny but yeah. I seriously doubt she's out here regularly being like, "I love my new shoes! They're so c**t." 🤦♀️😂😂😂
hahaha love this girl.
?
the biggest scam Abignail pulled was convincing people his story was true. check it out, he lied about all of it, his timeline doesn't add up. Most of the time he claimed this was happening, he was actually in prison.
Majority of actors and writers on the edge of starvation and this a--hat fakes a hate crime because making twice my annual salary per episode wasn't enough for him
🔴WATCH>>ᗪOᗯᑎᒪOᗩᗪ>>LINK>👉https://co.fastmovies.org
Laci, I appreciate you and love listening. i don't think you know how jarring that school bell alarm ad in the beginning of this episode is. Total fight/flight activating for anyone- I do not have trauma like that and I'm still reeling, 5 min later!! please, for everyone's health dont EVER play that ad again!!! Thank you
The number of times they both said "allegedly" 🤣🤣
Strong approve for any Amazon employee scamming Amazon
"don't put that on white people" -- yeah, no, he totally got that right though
gurl are you drunk or high or flirting or what?? doesn't matter still love it Eric Andre sooooo good
Wolfram and Hart... and Sons
All the landlord conversation: yes, but people who own 1 duplex they live in and rent the other half to be able to afford mortgage and repairs while still working 38 hours per week I'm a traditional job need to be called something else. I've been stolen from 4 times by people who justified it as all landlords are rich villains. Meanwhile, I have $8,000 CC debt and $160,000 mortgage and a roof that needs fixing
"You should do a podcast about scams!" lol
So many podcasts I listen to have done a deep dive on this submarine idiot, you'd think I'd be tired of it by now, but it's actually getting funnier each time I hear more
This is the MOST ghetto podcast I’ve ever stumbled upon. I tried to listen to two minutes of it but could not understand a single word of what the host was saying. It’s like some hood rat on the street trying to talk to you and you ignore them bc you don’t understand their language at all and are too good to talk to them. This podcast is such trash!! I turned off immediately because the host is so annoying it’s like listening to nails on a chalkboard!!
😂😂😂😭😂😂 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Agreed: I like polyamory for that exact reason. I'm disabled with chronic pain and have so little energy and can't have someone needing me all the time.
