THE PODCAST. Listen here.
Scam Goddess is one of the funniest shows on the podcast airwaves. Laci Mosley is unbelievably witty and seems to know about every pop culture thing going on. Ever.
Each episode of the show focuses on a different kind of scam, hoax, or hoodwink. Mosley’s guests are comedians, and as the show goes on, they banter about the case at hand. In this episode, Mosley invites a crew to discuss the Hilaria Baldwin situation. And a situation it was. If you don’t know about this yet, strap in.
Here’s a description of the episode:

THE WIKIPEDIA. Read here.
Hilaria Baldwin is famously married to Alec Baldwin. They have many a child together. AKA five between the ages of six months and seven years. Recently, we learned that Hilaria’s birth name is actually Hillary Lynn Hayward-Thomas. And, mostly importantly, that she didn’t grow up with a Spanish accent.
