It's so good to see you.
Yvette Nicole Brown
I am so happy to be with you. This has been on my calendar for about two or three weeks, and I've been. No. Two or three months, feels like. And I've been so excited. Can I give you flowers? I'm like, I'm not even gonna look at the zoom. I'm just gonna go right look down the barrel of my mic to say.
Lacey Mosley
Don'T make me cry.
Yvette Nicole Brown
No. First of all, you are supremely talented, which I've said a thousand times. But something that you have that I don't know that you have or that you know is a gift is that you're a chameleon. Every version of you, if it's a podcast or if it's on Black Lady Sketch show, If it's on iCarly, every version of you is so unique and different that it's almost like a different person, which means you can get people discovering you and loving you and following you that don't even know that they love and follow you somewhere else. Because let me tell you something. I was listening to Scam Goddess for a while before I did Black Lady Sketch show, and I didn't know you were the same Lacy. That's how unique your gifts are. So I want you to know that God has created so many amazing lanes for you, and this is just one of them. I know you know that, but there's about 57 other things that you can do, and some of it I don't think you even know yet. So I just want to say that you're so talented, honey.
Lacey Mosley
Thank you. Wow. You just made me cry. I'm like.
Yvette Nicole Brown
I didn't even look at you.
Lacey Mosley
I didn't look at you because I.
Yvette Nicole Brown
Wanted to make sure that I said.
Lacey Mosley
What I wanted to say.
Yvette Nicole Brown
So I didn't really, like, look at you, but. Yeah.
Lacey Mosley
Oh, God. Okay.
Yvette Nicole Brown
Wow.
Lacey Mosley
I never started an episode of this podcast crying, but here we are, guys. Get in, girls. We're going crying. Oh, it's so good to see you, man. Goodness. You look amazing.
Yvette Nicole Brown
So many of you.
Lacey Mosley
So shit.
Yvette Nicole Brown
Holy Trinity. It's always when the Lord tell me to tell somebody something, I go and tell them, I don't care where we are. I'm gonna tell you.
Lacey Mosley
No one has thrown me at the beginning of a podcast like this.
Yvette Nicole Brown
So I'll tell you about your goodness.
Lacey Mosley
I got the thing that people will appreciate.
Yvette Nicole Brown
You know, how we. You know how we do. Anyway, this is how we do. This is how we get down now in tears. We ain't done it right.
Lacey Mosley
Listen. Amen. I have to ask you about. Do you have a relationship with scams? Have you ever been scammed? Do you like them? Do you hate them?
Yvette Nicole Brown
Listen, why are you fall? I'm from East Cleveland, so I've.
Lacey Mosley
East Cleveland. What that means?
Yvette Nicole Brown
Come on. That means the hood. Hood. The hood hood. People from Detroit know. Chicago, know about East Cleveland. So I have been around scams. I know scams. Well, I am not often scammed. I did get scammed recently, which I. I really was shocked. Cause I'm usually better than this. And I was like, am I old now?
Lacey Mosley
Yes. We were talking about this on Twitter.
Yvette Nicole Brown
Yeah, man. So. Yes. So listen. So everybody knows that I have a LEGO problem. And I. It's not a problem, but it's. It's a. I love Lego. And so I build LEGO almost every night. And so I'm running out of sets. And I'm always buying sets for those that are concerned. I also donate the set. So I make them, and then I put them in a big Ziploc baggie and with the instructions in the box and send them to Goodwill so somebody else can get to play as well. So I'm not just hoarding lego, but I do have a lot of lego. So I found this site that looked like the LEGO site. Like, it said lego.com, they spoofed the shit out of this site. And so I went crazy because everything was like, $5. And I should have known.
Lacey Mosley
I should have known.
Yvette Nicole Brown
But I'm like, it's Black Friday. It wasn't. It's like everything was like $70, but it's like Black Friday.
Lacey Mosley
Lego. I know you gotta pay top dollar to stub your toe.
Yvette Nicole Brown
I do know this. But this is why the scam was so good. It said lego.com and it said Black Friday surprise sale. So it felt like. It felt like I had gotten into behind the Velvet Rope. Because they know I love VIP. VIP. I'm very important. VIP. So I got up in there and went, Eight. Shit. I got like, when I say, like, 10, I went crazy. Everything I ever wanted, I got. You only use PayPal. And that probably is what should have. Should have got me. Because usually if it's only PayPal, it just feels a little scammy. They usually give you options. PayPal is one. It should not be the only way.
Lacey Mosley
You can, because PayPal is like, I'm Bennett and I ain't in it. So what you sitting up? Don't be like, don't I know it.
Yvette Nicole Brown
Now, Don't I know it now? Did not know it then we say.
Lacey Mosley
Pay pal, not pay friend, not pay friend.
Yvette Nicole Brown
Family not pay love. You paid. Okay, so I pay acquaintance. I clicked the button, right, and the money flew out of my account. And then I got the receipt from PayPal. And the receipt from PayPal was nothing Lego at all. The name of the company switched to Toy Brick. It was coming from China. Like, all these Chinese characters. No shade to China, but that's what it said. And then it was someone's personal email, was the website. And I was like, wait, now I'm sending this to Miriam in Peoria. This is supposed to be Mr. Lego. So that began the opus of trying to get my money back. I have it back. PayPal, PayPal, PayPal, PayPal, for a good two or three days, was acting like they didn't know who I was or what. And this is the thing.
Lacey Mosley
I thought I was pals. I thought we was pals, Lacey.
Yvette Nicole Brown
And this is the thing. This is what got me the most. I reached out to PayPal, like, 15 minutes after I realized I was scammed. So it's not like they could have just unsent it. Like, they could have just clicked a button. But that's not their policy, by the way, guys, it's not their policy to help you when money's taken from you. So I went to Citibank, and Citibank knocked it, took it back, and then PayPal came on board and said, we. We do believe this is a scam. I said, you do?
Lacey Mosley
I've been telling you, it's a scam.
Yvette Nicole Brown
So anyway, I got my money back. So that was my opus through the PayPal.
Lacey Mosley
Now, did they ever send you the bricks?
Yvette Nicole Brown
They did not send me the toy bricks, and I didn't want them to send me the toy bricks because PayPal also has this policy that if what you get is sort of like what they promised, you're okay, no harm, no foul. So in my mind, if I receive the toy bricks, PayPal's going to say that they are Lego and they're not.
Lacey Mosley
Yeah, PayPal said vibes. They were like, is the vibe Lego?
Yvette Nicole Brown
Is it giving off? Is it giving off LEGO vibes? Is there an essence of lego?
Lacey Mosley
They didn't have Darth Vader. They had Dark Vader. Well, was he still Darth then? Girl, why are you calling us?
Yvette Nicole Brown
Why are you calling us? So, yes, it was that experience. And listen, I don't wanna shade PayPal. Like, I get it. Like, the people that I talked to were lovely. They have to follow the policy of that company. I just think that's a horrible policy. I think especially if you have a customer that says this is a scam. This just happened to me. Everybody should be getting up, excited to try to stop this. Like, why should I be the one trying to?
Lacey Mosley
I don't know.
Yvette Nicole Brown
I don't scams.
Lacey Mosley
Like, you talking PayPal, Western Union, cash app, Venmo, like, anytime you're sending cryptocurrency, which US Dollars can be cryptocurrency if they're transferred through this method. They like, look, I know everybody doing crime on these apps. We can't stop all the crime.
Yvette Nicole Brown
We can't stop every cry. But this is the thing, Lacey, we need our 3%.
Lacey Mosley
We need our 5.
Yvette Nicole Brown
That's what I'm saying. It felt like they were more concerned with keeping the scammers happy than the people that are scammed. Like, whoever this Miriam chick is in Peoria, wherever she was, I'm just calling her that. She apparently is doing some high volume business with these toy bricks. And PayPal was like, I'm gonna need this 3% of all of this stuff she's getting. So I, you know, she moving more bricks than Noriega. She moving more bricks than Noriega.
Lacey Mosley
And I might be proud of her for that. Look, I gotta just say, you know, that's the thing about, like these currency apps is like, they're like, look, this is none of our business. Because at the end of the day, they know you're not going to stop using PayPal because of a scam. You're going to blame the scam.
Yvette Nicole Brown
I bet I did. I bet. I'm done. I'm done. This is the thing. I don't listen. I am a good steward over my money. I really, I save. I'm that chick, right? Don't. Don't play with my money. Do not. I don't care. If I had bought just one toy brick and it was 5 cent, I'd have been fighting and lighting up Twitter to get that 5 cent back.
Lacey Mosley
Give me my 5 pennies back.
Yvette Nicole Brown
Give me my 5 pennieS back. I don't play. I don't play.
Lacey Mosley
Okay, listen. She don't play. Y'all heard it in her voice. The bass. It came out. And listen, I'm scared. Like, speaking of. It's so perfect that you said that. Cause speaking of toy crime, let's get into our first segment here. What's hot and fraud. This is where we warn our listeners about scams that are popping in the zeitgeist. More often than not, we get a letter from you guys. Snitch on your friends and family@scamgottispodmail.com and what do we always say? Just make sure the scam is retired so we don' Fuck up your bag. Amen.
Yvette Nicole Brown
That's right.
Lacey Mosley
So today I need a fake name. Yvette. I need a fake name for this person.
Yvette Nicole Brown
Marsha.
Lacey Mosley
Marcia. Oh, love it. Marcia. Marcia. Marcia. Yes. So it says, dear Scam Pod Team.
Yvette Nicole Brown
That's official, isn't it?
Lacey Mosley
Right? Very official, yes. Shout out to the team. This is a confessional email as I am revealing my own scam. Okay, sadly now a thing of the past. I have two young kids and for the past couple of years I've managed to conceal from them the fact that McDonald's Happy Meals come with toys. Wow.
Yvette Nicole Brown
Before handing over this one, I'mma like it already.
Lacey Mosley
Right? Before handing over the box, I would artfully swipe and conceal whatever little gift was hanging out in there and add it to a secret stash. Come Christmas. Come on. Come Christmas. Instead of spending a bunch of money on crappy small gifts for their stockings, I was able to stuff them full of McDonald's freebies. I did buy actual gifts under the tree. I'm not a total monster. That's what she said. That's what Marsha said. Sadly, this year the jig is up and they now expect their toys in the Happy Meal box. I look on in sadness thinking of the savings and annoying gift hunting time that is now forsaken. Rip to a great scam. Hope you'll preach the good news to everyone and other parents can benefit from this as a money saver. Truly a victimless crime. It's a feel good fraud. Yes, Marsha, I love this. Especially if you're like a single mom or you're a two parent household on a budget.
Yvette Nicole Brown
Like we didn't even really have Christmas when I was a kid. Like one or two. I remember, but for the most part it was like, here's some underwear and some socks. Because you know, single parent home as well. Mom was raising two kids on a secretary's salary, so it was a whole different situation. I think this is a perfect scam. I don't even think we should call it a scam. I think it's just being smart and wise with your money. I would say going forward, I didn't have a lot of Christmases, so forgive me if what I'm about to say is sacrilegious, but maybe you don't have the stockings. Like, maybe you let what's under the tree do what it do.
Lacey Mosley
She was trying to turn it, though. She said, da, da da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da da.
Yvette Nicole Brown
Yeah, but it's like, now that y'all done figured out where them stockings. Enjoy Christmas all year long, every time we go to McDonald's, it's Christmas. That's how I would flip it.
Lacey Mosley
Isn't it crazy that when you're a kid, like, you just want useless plastic?
Yvette Nicole Brown
Yeah.
Lacey Mosley
But now if somebody gave me underwear and socks for Christmas, I'd be like, thank you so much.
Yvette Nicole Brown
Thank you so much.
Lacey Mosley
Cause I don't know where these socks going. Every time I put them in the wash, they disappeared with my hair ties.
Yvette Nicole Brown
I don't care where y'all living. That and all the bobby pins. And all the bobby pins.
Lacey Mosley
And all the bobby pins.
Yvette Nicole Brown
All the bobby pins.
Lacey Mosley
What is going on? I don't have nobody else living in my house, and I'm constantly like, somebody got to be robbing me.
Yvette Nicole Brown
Somebody taking my bobby pins.
Lacey Mosley
Cause where and how? I take the sock off my foot, and it's just gone.
Yvette Nicole Brown
I know my dog takes my socks. Like, I know where my socks go. I just don't know where the bobby pins go.
Lacey Mosley
Okay, well, that's for safekeeping. That I steal bobby pins from work all the time, and I truly, truly don't know where they go. Like.
Yvette Nicole Brown
Well, I mean, I really feel like now it's karma for you, because if you're stealing bobby pins, then they can't. Is it stealing?
Lacey Mosley
They put it in my hands. I just walked away with what was in my hand.
Yvette Nicole Brown
What was in your hands?
Lacey Mosley
They could have took it out.
Yvette Nicole Brown
You right. You ain't lied. That's not on me now. You ain't lied. That part you didn't lie about.
Lacey Mosley
It's in me, but it's not on me.
Yvette Nicole Brown
It ain't on me. In me, but not of me. Got it?
Lacey Mosley
And now I only find bobby pins and hair ties when I don't need them.
Yvette Nicole Brown
Oh, yeah. As soon as I Get braids. I find bobby pins everywhere.
Lacey Mosley
Everywhere, everywhere, everywhere. I'm like, what is this? What kind of gaslighting situation is going on with my hair products?
Yvette Nicole Brown
You know where else they are in the wig you just took off.
Lacey Mosley
Damn.
Yvette Nicole Brown
I found about. I found about 20 in my old wigs. I take them off.
Lacey Mosley
I found a lot in my weave. When I take the braids out, I just be like. I'm like, oh, they was all there.
Yvette Nicole Brown
That's where they were. That's where they were hanging.
Lacey Mosley
And then they're all like rusted because I've been washing my hair. Wash your hair?
Yvette Nicole Brown
Yes, yes.
Lacey Mosley
Oh my goodness. I love this scam, y'all. If y'all a little hard up or even if you're not, like, why not just trick children? They're already okay. They come out with nothing. Babies are born with literally no property. They ain't got nothing to offer. All you're doing is feeding them, housing them, you know, like getting them clothes and shit. Like they're criminals. So you should trick them.
Yvette Nicole Brown
I want this. Judy, please save this for her when she has her first baby. Just keep it and keep it somewhere safe and we're gonna play it for the kid.
Lacey Mosley
When I let a kid listen, if I have a baby, the baby's gonna get to work immediately. Okay? We're going straight to Sears. They're gonna be like, can you dust the placenta off? I'll be like, yeah. Can y'all set the camera up? This baby's getting employed. What, y'all need somebody to model pacifiers? My baby here. Here's my baby. Unemployed baby.
Yvette Nicole Brown
That sounds like what your mom probably said when she had swear you. You got it from somewhere. You got it from somewhere.
Lacey Mosley
Well, guys, we're going to take a quick break for some non scam advertisements. We'll be back with my favorite segment. Historic Hoodw.
TaxAct Advertiser
Taxact knows you probably don't need help filing taxes, but if you get stuck, we have live experts you can talk to. And who knows, you could hit it off and become long term tax. Staying up late at night talking about deductions, refunds, personal exemptions. Heck, you could even fall in love and create a little dependent of your own one day. Or they could just answer your filing questions. Tax act. Let's get them over with.
Yvette Nicole Brown
In the mood for something crunchy, saucy and boneless? Try Jack's new crispy boneless wings from Jack in the Box. Starting at just $5.99. Get em with honey, garlic, sriracha or smoke show smoky Barbecue sauce. Enjoy so much more.
Lacey Mosley
C. And we are back. And it's time for historic hoodwinks. This is where we regale. I will regale Yvette with a famous criminal group of criminals. You know, squad. Maybe we don't know. Maybe we love them, maybe we hate them. I have a feeling I'm not gonna love them today, guys. Today. And this is why I needed to have a black queen on the show. Because it's something. I don't know what it is, but if we're gonna assess a black lady scammer, it needs to be a black lady scampod. It just has to. Today, guys, we're talking about. You might know her as arid edges, tumbleweed follicles, subsaharan locks. You know, the woman with the driest hair in the game and the driest soul. Honey, we're talking about Candice Owens. Boo. Boo. This woman.
Yvette Nicole Brown
Boo.
Lacey Mosley
We haven't even started. And it's boo. It's boo. Listen, I will say she has gotten her hairs together since the Internet dragged her repeatedly over and over again in perpetuity. About her hair. Her hair is anti black. It is.
Yvette Nicole Brown
I mean, listen, I feel like the ancestors. This is one thing I know now. They do a lot of things, and one thing I know that they do when they are displeased with you, they snatch your edges.
Lacey Mosley
They do.
Yvette Nicole Brown
They just. They come back from the beyond and they snatch them. And no matter how what you do, what edge control you use, however you. It just never gonna be right for you when you do.
Lacey Mosley
And I will say to my queens out there who have had a bad braid experience. I have. Where they came out from the scalp, we not talking about you, okay?
Yvette Nicole Brown
No, no, no, we not. We not. There's a difference between the alopecia that comes from a tight weave or braid situation and what the ancestors do.
Lacey Mosley
And what the ancestors do when you.
Yvette Nicole Brown
Disrespect black people as a black person, there's a whole other level of edge snatching.
Lacey Mosley
Now, if you look over here to the side, we got a picture of Candace. She did get the hair together. It's looking much more. It's giving quick weave, but it is looking a lot better than it did. I wish I could see the. I wish I could see her face. So Candace Owens is a young black woman making ish. Oh, okay, we'll call her young. She's a young black woman making waves. Look, Caitlyn, don't discriminate. I appreciate that about her. She's a young black woman making waves. As a controversial conservative figure since 2017, she has been active voice among the conservative circles and has often taken to debate over her spreading blatant lies. However, it appears that Candace might be a little less staunch conservative. I heard that back in the day, Candace was a Democrat.
Yvette Nicole Brown
Yeah, she was a Democrat. And she also was not a fan of Donald Trump before she realized it was lucrative to be a fan of Donald Trump.
Lacey Mosley
Yeah. And that's the thing, is, like, all skin folk ain't kinfolk.
Yvette Nicole Brown
No, all skin folk ain't kinfolk.
Lacey Mosley
No black person speaks for all the black people. Like, I'm trying to tell y'all that. Especially when situations come rise. Like Shaun King. Like, ooh.
Yvette Nicole Brown
Well, you said black people, though.
Lacey Mosley
Oh, yeah, you right, didn't you? You said talcomax is.
Yvette Nicole Brown
Cause you had said.
Lacey Mosley
You had said talcomax is.
Yvette Nicole Brown
Because what you had said was that not all black people are kinfo. Is what you said.
Lacey Mosley
That's true. That's true.
Yvette Nicole Brown
So keep you honest. Just trying to.
Lacey Mosley
We gotta disqualify that statement then, because.
Yvette Nicole Brown
The last one was not a good statement.
Lacey Mosley
You know, Martin Luther Scheme is. I don't think he's us.
Yvette Nicole Brown
I don't think Frodrick.
Lacey Mosley
Frodrick Douglas. Okay, Fannie Mae Scammer. I don't know if he's one of us guys.
Yvette Nicole Brown
We not saying he. We just saying we don't know.
Lacey Mosley
But even the way he said he was like, my mama was out here doing this. That.
Yvette Nicole Brown
And third of the time, I said his mom was a loose. He said his mama was ho. She was loose. And then. But he. And then he. Okay, he said, mama, thou art loose. That's what he said. That what he said.
Lacey Mosley
That's what he said. And that's not how we act about our mamas. I'm proud of you.
Yvette Nicole Brown
That sure ain't. That's how I know for sure. You probably ain't a Negro.
Lacey Mosley
Because, listen, my mama could be running a brothel out the crib. I open the door, a new person every day. I would still be like, she's a good Christian woman.
Yvette Nicole Brown
She's a dear, sweet Christian woman.
Lacey Mosley
She's very embracive.
Yvette Nicole Brown
Never done any wrong. She's a lover of all people.
Lacey Mosley
Of all people.
Yvette Nicole Brown
And so I would have said it.
Lacey Mosley
Who have coins.
Yvette Nicole Brown
Who have coins. And she believes in celebrating coins.
Lacey Mosley
Right?
Yvette Nicole Brown
We would never.
Lacey Mosley
We would never.
Yvette Nicole Brown
A black person would never.
Lacey Mosley
Exactly. So Candace's first politically themed video was only posted to YouTube in 2017. A reenactment of her coming out to her parents as conservative. Not coming out to your parents as conservative. Wow. Okay. Oh, Candace. So, however, less than two years ago, she was the CEO of an online publication called Degree180. Ironic that frequently mocked then candidate Trump, including conducting a mock investigation into his penis size. Okay, gross. I don't like the penis size jokes. Like, it's a little transphobic. And it's also stupid. Like, people are born how they're born, but also, like, girl, like, you were doing all this fodder. You were trying to get some clicks, some retweets. So in 2015, a column Candace wrote that was good news that the Republican Tea Party will eventually die off peacefully in their sleep, we hope. So she was, like, really throwing shots at the Republican Tea Party at Donald Trump. Several years later, she blames the site on writers youth and called one reporter a despicable creature. The site appeared to stop publishing content in 2016. So that's when she pivoted.
Yvette Nicole Brown
Has anybody looked at the. How many people were checking out that site before she pivoted? I got a feeling it was some anemic number for she pivoted. And then when she pivoted, everything started popping, and that's why she's the person she is now.
Lacey Mosley
It's giving three views. It's giving.
Yvette Nicole Brown
I wish they could see.
Lacey Mosley
No ads.
Yvette Nicole Brown
I'm making. Just giving.
Lacey Mosley
No ads.
Yvette Nicole Brown
You know, no ads.
Lacey Mosley
So in the spring of 2016, Candace created a $75,000 GoFundMe campaign to launch an anti cyber bullying website. Ironic. Called Social Autopsy. Described as a searchable database of offensive speech found on social media.
Yvette Nicole Brown
Wow, that sounds like something Shaun King would love to be part of also.
Lacey Mosley
Like, what do you mean, like a searchable database? Like, isn't social media searchable database?
Yvette Nicole Brown
I would think it is. Did she get that money?
Lacey Mosley
She said, look, we gonna. We gonna figure out who bullying you, even though you already know.
Yvette Nicole Brown
You already know.
Lacey Mosley
Oh, we got a video.
Yvette Nicole Brown
Oh, a video. I'm excited.
Lacey Mosley
Introducing Social Autopsy, our team has crawled through the public interfaces of Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram, creating real profiles for the individuals that lob hate speech over the web. Oh, okay.
Yvette Nicole Brown
Yeah.
Lacey Mosley
So this is like advertisement for, I guess, white people because everybody's white.
Yvette Nicole Brown
I. Well, I mean, that's what she. She aligns herself with, and that's, I guess, her choice. Just like she can choose to, I guess she's a dole is all in the other way.
Lacey Mosley
But there's nothing wrong with supporting white people. What is your aim?
Yvette Nicole Brown
This is the big goal. The bigger issue is that she's a cyber bully herself.
Lacey Mosley
Exactly.
Yvette Nicole Brown
So I'm trying to figure out, how you gonna do a site they gonna find you with all her tweets. I call her Auntie Ruckus. I don't even call her her name. I call her Auntie Ruckus. And Auntie Ruckus, she bullies everybody. She bullies everything. She sides with horrible people. She's always on the wrong side of the debate. If I see something on Twitter and I find out that she's for it, I'm absolutely against it automatically. I don't even need to look any further than that.
Lacey Mosley
And there's a currency in being hateful online because a lot of people will boost their followings by dunking on people who are mean to them or retweeting things that people have said that was insulting and letting their followers attack them. I don't participate in that space. That's why I told y'all, talk to me nice. If you don't, you're getting muted. I won't even block you because I won't give you the fucking satisfaction so of thinking that I saw it. But, like, there's some people who know that there's a currency in that. There's tons of tons of Twitter accounts that are just literally people saying mean shit because they're like, if I say something mean, people will talk to me. Even if they're yelling at me or they're mad at me, they're talking to me.
Yvette Nicole Brown
Yeah. You know, But I'm the opposite of you in that. I do block them. I do repost them, and not so that anybody can get them. I get them myself. I don't need anybody to do my dirty work for me. If I need to get somebody told, I tell. Which I know.
Lacey Mosley
We gonna get in there, though. Oh, yeah, we post it. I'm in there.
Yvette Nicole Brown
No, no, no. Get. I want y'all to get in. If it's something that needs to be said, like. But it's not. I'm not doing it to get people to defend. Yeah. Like, it's a free space. If somebody says something horrible and you have something to say about it, get in there. Because they. Nobody told them to put it publicly on my page or to DM me. Once you DM me, you wanted me to know, and I got friends. I want them to know. That's how I do it. But at the same time, I have a reason. I do it not just so that my friends can dunk on them, because, again, I do all my dunking myself. I Do it because I want people to know who not to be, how not to be. I want the reaction they get from their hatefulness to be so shocking to their system that they rethink being an asshole. That is the whole reason. Yes, I saw it. Yes, I'm blocking you. But before I do, let me holla at you for a minute.
Lacey Mosley
Right, but the thing is, I think those people just want the attention. Like, they don't get.
Yvette Nicole Brown
Oh, no, but they'll get it. They're gonna get the attention. They gonna get the attention. They gonna also get blocked. They gonna get reported, and they might lose their page. So they gonna get all the stuff they want. They gonna get a whole bunch of stuff. It's a grab bag. It's a Christmas. A Christmas miracle. A stocking full.
Lacey Mosley
They say, fuck around and find out.
Yvette Nicole Brown
Listen and find out. I don't. I don't play that mess. And people know that. So if they come to my page and also make it good, like, I'm so tired of dumb trolls. Like, please put your back into it. Cause you're gonna be blocked right after. So at least make it a good one, right?
Lacey Mosley
Get it quippy. Make it. Get in there. Check your spelling. Use the right version of their. Like, come on, help us out here.
Yvette Nicole Brown
Just do these things.
Lacey Mosley
So she created this site to basically hunt down herself. Like, who did it? Me, who did it? I'm gonna figure it out. It's like police investigating themselves. We gonna get into it.
Yvette Nicole Brown
We gonna figure out who did these crimes.
Lacey Mosley
It's you. Okay, so it was essentially a setup for sanctioned doxxing, a term for publishing private information about someone online with malicious intent and a platform to unmask trolls and harassers. And Candace claims she got pushback from the left. In reality, the initial backlash came from the cultural libertarian YouTubers. Matt Jarbo, who had a mundane Matt channel, I guess, and Chris Maldono, both strong critics of socialist justice warriors. So you know how people who are racist love to weaponize our words. Social justice. Woke. I get mad when they take words from us like, look, we let y'all have for shizzle. Like, why are y'all coming over here for woke? Like, that's not what woke means. Woke means we woke up and realized that everything is a scam and that white supremacy is embedded in the fundamental fiber of every part of this country. And you're like, oh, these people woke. Culture woke. Woke. It's like, they. I would give y'all that. Racist got the power to take a word and just make it so lame and ugly.
Yvette Nicole Brown
But also, why do they want you to be a sheep and asleep, though? Like, even if it is a woke culture, what is wrong with people waking up to how crappy things are? Everything that they celebrate is trash. They celebrate trash. The people they elect, the people that they support, the double murderers they invite down to visit their Florida resorts, the black women who don't know they're black, that hate on black people like Auntie Ruckus. All of it's trash.
Lacey Mosley
I'm gonna title this episode Auntie Ruckus. So Candace also never made it clear how exactly the site would do anything that it claimed to do. Of course she didn't. She just was trying to raise coins.
Yvette Nicole Brown
Trying to raise money.
Lacey Mosley
Ultimately, many activists and cyber harassment experts weighed in, even contacting Candace personally to explain why the site was a horrible idea. However, she doubled down. Of course, she did blame the activists and continued to collect money from her GoFundMe. Cause that's why she did it.
Yvette Nicole Brown
Scam.
Lacey Mosley
That's why she made the site. Come on. We can all get a site on GoDaddy for what, $7 a month, sis? Like what scam? She was like, no, I need to keep raising money for this cause. We helping people who have you helped? Don't worry about that.
Yvette Nicole Brown
Myself, I'm people that's helping me.
Lacey Mosley
What you talking about, United Negro?
Yvette Nicole Brown
Of me.
Lacey Mosley
Of me. Fund.
Yvette Nicole Brown
Fund.
Lacey Mosley
Like what? So she claims that the experience was what prompted her to become a conservative, despite conservatives largely leading the charge against the website. So that's when she realized what her bed and butter was. She was like, oh, I'm getting all the attention from these girls. I'mma just join them. If you can't beat them, join them. Hey, so skipping out on rent. Wow, we're making a pivot here. In January 2021, Candace attacked Alexandria Ocasio Cortez for being fiscally irresponsible because she could not afford an apartment in Washington, D.C. however, reporter Nathan Barnard expl by posting a lawsuit that shows she owed rent for a $3,500 apartment. She lived there for six months rent free, then claimed she had gotten toxic mold sickness and threatened to sue the landlord to avoid paying rent scammer. So in month one, you wasn't like, achoo, nothing. It wasn't until six months, and they were like, hey, girl, the rent is actually not free that you were like, the mold.
Yvette Nicole Brown
Oh, everything she touches is just gross. I just think she's horrible. I do. I think she's a horrible person. I mean, you're Do I have to say allegedly? I didn't say allegedly if I think.
Lacey Mosley
I don't think. I have to say allegedly about opinion.
Yvette Nicole Brown
If I think she's a horrible person.
Lacey Mosley
So she stopped paying rent in 2016 and then was evicted in January 2017, which coincides with the shutdown of Degree180 and her subsequent coming out as a conservative several months later. So basically, the coins ran out from.
Yvette Nicole Brown
Her GoFundMe and her rent scam.
Lacey Mosley
Right. She was limping around the apartment complex with a neck brace on, talking about mold. They were like, girl, we don't believe you.
Yvette Nicole Brown
She had a neck. She had neck brace for the mold. In your mind, in your mind, in your mind, in your mind alone. The mold caused a neck injury and a limp. And a limp and a limp. Listen, that mold is dangerous, guys. It's very dangerous.
Lacey Mosley
Don't nobody really know what mold do. We just know it's bad. Nobody's ever like, this is what happens because of mold.
Yvette Nicole Brown
Now you know, guys, now you know.
Lacey Mosley
It could be anything. Hearing loss, you know, you say anything, it's like, my leg itch. Whatever, we'll believe you. My tooth came out.
Yvette Nicole Brown
Oh, my goodness.
Lacey Mosley
You know, I'm fine with it. So a legal analyst reviewing the case concluded that there were many unanswered questions, such as, why stay so long if there's a mold issue? That was my first question.
Yvette Nicole Brown
Exactly.
Lacey Mosley
Especially if she could afford a 3500 apartment. Right. Why sue a year after? And if she started to exhibit symptoms that seemed related to infestation, why not notify a doctor immediately?
Yvette Nicole Brown
Why not?
Lacey Mosley
Logic.
Yvette Nicole Brown
Cause it's a scam.
Lacey Mosley
Logic. She said, I went to my healer, we burnt some incense, and then I got a walker from cvs, but I'm still living here. Why?
Yvette Nicole Brown
You know, I always thought when I think about people stealing and scamming, I always am okay with it if it's to help you live. Right. So if scam up. Yeah. If you need bread and you got a scam to cause a diversion, you can run in and grab some Wonder Bread. God bless. It's for food. What I don't like about what Candace does is Candace scams for clout. She scams for fame. The money comes. If you have clout and fame, the money's going to come. She's indiscriminate in who she sides with. She doesn't care that she harms her. Her people, our people. Cause it ain't her people. She doesn't care that she's not.
Lacey Mosley
She was like, people.
Yvette Nicole Brown
I'm like, wait a minute. Yeah, yeah, exactly.
Lacey Mosley
She puts the S on it.
Yvette Nicole Brown
Yeah. And she's, you know, she's kind of moved into another realm of being where she doesn't have to deal with that horrible melanin that is permeating her body.
Lacey Mosley
I mean, she still does, but in her mind, it's very hard being a black woman. Sometimes I'm like, I don't know. I leave.
Yvette Nicole Brown
It is.
Lacey Mosley
But it's like, I can't leave.
Yvette Nicole Brown
It is hard being a black woman because of. Ethically, because of women like Candace Owens. It's harder. But I love it. I love the fact that one, that we have a community, that we have each other's backs, you know, I love that I don't have to sell out my people to get ahead. I love that I have enough integrity to find my own way without putting a boot on someone's neck. You know, every time Candace does some of the nonsense she does, she sets vulnerable black women and men back. And the fact that she's okay with that and she can continue to eat well and celebrate her. The life she's, quote, unquote, created on the backs of black people. Like, she literally would be the black person in Africa going, that's where the really good people are. If you want to enslave some folks.
Lacey Mosley
Right.
Yvette Nicole Brown
That's who she is. Where the boat at?
Lacey Mosley
I'll lead them here.
Yvette Nicole Brown
Yeah. Yeah. You want me to stand here to get them to come to you to get on the boat? That's who she is. That's why the ancestors snatched her. Register.
Lacey Mosley
So gross. She's so gross. Robbery with an advanced network, cybersecurity solutions and trusted partnership, Comcast Business powers more businesses than anyone.
Yvette Nicole Brown
Comcast Business powering possibilities.
Lacey Mosley
Restrictions apply. Call or visit comcastbusiness.com to learn more. All set for your flight? Yep.
Yvette Nicole Brown
I've got everything I need. Eye mask, neck pillow, T Mobile. Headphones. Wait.
Lacey Mosley
T Mobile?
Yvette Nicole Brown
You bet. Free in flight. Wi Fi, 15 off all Hilton brands. I never go anywhere without T Mobile. Same goes from a water bottle, chewing gum, nail clippers.
Lacey Mosley
I'm gonna leave you to it. Find out how you can experience travel better@t mobile.com Travel qualifying plan required. Wi Fi were available on select US airlines. Deposit and Hilton Honors. Membership required for 15. Discount terms and conditions apply. And fraud. And we are back. The Freedom Phone. Like, we're going. Candace has recently gotten behind the Freedom Phone, a cell phone touted by conservatives to be the alternative to Google and Apple. Wow. The Freedom Phone. Okay, 22 year old self proclaimed bitcoin millionaire Eric Feynman sells his new smartphone as a part of his goal to prioritize free speech and privacy above anything else. Last time I checked, when you get on your phone, it is free speech. I'm pretty sure no matter your provider, T mobile, whatever you want on your phone, even cricket, all the chirps you want, only chirps.
Yvette Nicole Brown
This the guy?
Lacey Mosley
Yes, this is the guy. Middle finger up, middle finger of the camera. Cause fuck people who look at your photo, I guess never understood the middle finger to the camera. But cool guys. Super cool. So Feynman claims the phone offers robust privacy features. An uncensorable app store called Patri App that offers access to apps such as Parlor, which was banned from most stores following the wake of the January 6th Capitol riots. Duh. However, no specific for the phone's build have been publicly released and security experts are concerned. Duh. They're concerned because it's a fake ass phone. They were like, hey racist, we got the new next tail for y'all. I'm like, if you need an untraceable phone, it's called a flip phone, sis. You go to the grocery store, you get one of those, flip it open, talk all the racisms you want. Like, what are we doing? You can get those for $20.
Yvette Nicole Brown
Yeah, yeah. I don't think that, you know, it's about the freedom name to it though. Like as soon as you. There's a lot of people, a lot of patriots with quotes in this country that really, really love anything with a flag and an eagle and the word freedom on it. And it's all about separating people from their money. And the Bible even says in, in 1st Timothy 6 and 10, the love of money is the root of all evil. And so everything that we're seeing Candace doing and the former guy doing and the Republicans doing is really all about scamming people out of money. And we know what coins. Yeah, what, what, what, what the love of coins does. It's not, it's not the coins, it's the love of coins that causes the problems.
Lacey Mosley
And that's what I don't get that people don't understand. Especially racist. I'm like, bro, like y'all gave so much money to help a man build the wall to keep Mexicans out.
Yvette Nicole Brown
Still do it.
Lacey Mosley
Where the wall at? Where is the wall?
Yvette Nicole Brown
And I mean, people forget too that Steve Bannon was indicted for a scam to get the money from people saying that he was getting the money to build the wall. And it really was being used for his own personal use. Like he was indicted for that. He was pardoned by the former guy. But these people, all they care about is getting people's money. And the thing is, the worst thing about it, the people that they're scamming don't have a lot. Like it's not. They're not scamming their fellow billionaires and millionaires. They're scamming people that work at like Piggly Wiggly. Like making it day by day. Minimum wage people. It's crazy.
Lacey Mosley
Racism is expensive. Like maybe that'll help point it in the right direction. It costs so much money to be racist. It would be cheaper to not.
Yvette Nicole Brown
It really does save money.
Lacey Mosley
Don't be racist.
Yvette Nicole Brown
Don't be racist and save your money from the Piggly Wiggly. Don't send it to them. They don't need your money.
Lacey Mosley
They don't need your money.
Yvette Nicole Brown
They don't need your money. And they won't vote to raise the minimum wage. So they're not even trying to help you, which is dumb. If you really gonna scam people for money, then you should be voting for the minimum wage to be raised so they have more money to give you.
Lacey Mosley
Right, dummies? You would think. You would think so. The Freedom Phone actually appears to be a rebranded Omdegee, a pro Chinese smartphone that costs as little as $119 on AliExpress. According to Cybersecurity expert Matthew Hickey, the phone is notorious for its poor security due to largely. That's what they were selling Based on damn. Largely to its use of processors from Media Talk. These processors are notoriously used by North Korean regime to implement surveillance and backdoors.
Yvette Nicole Brown
But gonna get your Freedom Phones everybody right.
Lacey Mosley
This Freedom Phone is feeling very much like jail phones.
Yvette Nicole Brown
It's giving prison.
Lacey Mosley
So Candace promoted and offered a discount code for the $500 phone across her socials. Some suspected financial compensation. Ironically, Twitter users noted that Candace was tweeting from an iPhone as she was.
Yvette Nicole Brown
Promoting the Freedom Freedom Phone garbage.
Lacey Mosley
So why you over here on Tim Apple's device? Why you not getting free? Why you not on parler doing this? Pay no tweet. Freedom from the iPhone.
Yvette Nicole Brown
Oh gosh.
Lacey Mosley
Candace Owens llc. We gotta blaze through the rest of this.
Yvette Nicole Brown
What is it too? When you see it, your eyes are dead. They ain't nothing behind their eyes. It's no soul. The ancestors snatched that with the edges.
Lacey Mosley
So Candace Owens llc. Then we still talk about this.
Yvette Nicole Brown
Damn woman. We gotta get through this.
Lacey Mosley
So in a familiar scam Your own followers out of donation scheme. Candace found a way to raise money for herself through a for profit organization. In 2020, Candace ran an anti Black Lives Matter campaign on.
Yvette Nicole Brown
Oh, Jesus.
Lacey Mosley
Sending her followers text messages stating, hi, it's me, Coon, Candace Owens.
Yvette Nicole Brown
No, she didn't.
Lacey Mosley
She didn't say Coon, but she said Candace Owens. Same thing. The Black Lives Matter movement is getting more power by the day and we must stop them. We stand with me.
Yvette Nicole Brown
We. We stop them.
Lacey Mosley
A black girl. You know you like extra black. I'm dark skinned. Like, you are unmissable.
Yvette Nicole Brown
You not passing Tessa quote unquote black woman said, we need to stop Black Lives Matter. You can't even.
Lacey Mosley
Can y'all believe that? She went full Clayton Bigsby and was.
Yvette Nicole Brown
Like, that's why I call her Auntie Ruckus. It's the same energy. It's the same Claytonia Bigsby. Same energy.
Lacey Mosley
She said, they're over there. Get em.
Yvette Nicole Brown
But you know what? One thing I know for sure about karma again. Because I've lived long enough to know this. It all is being noted. It's all being written down. And this is the thing also, I know about scammers that scam not for good. There's gonna be something that Candace Owens really wants in life, something that's really important to her. And it'll be the one thing she never has. And we may never know what that thing is. I don't need to know what that thing is. It's enough to know that it is never going to make it to her house or into her hand. And that's because she's done dirt. When you do dirt.
Lacey Mosley
Here's the thing. I don't mind scamming racist. It's just if she would do it and not have us involved, like, why am I in it? Like, if you could just leave us out of it and rob these racists in peace, I would be fine with it. I'd be like, absolutely, sis turn up.
Yvette Nicole Brown
But you can't be a black person scamming racists without saying you also hate black people.
Lacey Mosley
Yeah, you gotta be like.
Yvette Nicole Brown
You gotta be. You gotta double down. You gotta turn on your people for them to accept you. And they know our love is strong. So if you show any type of love for black folk, you're not welcome in the racist circle. So she has to turn her back on us.
Lacey Mosley
That's why the Heather Heyers of the world, the two men that Kyle Rittenhouse murdered and the one that injured, they were all white. The white people I'm gonna say all white people, but I'll say racist white people. Didn't care. Because the point was, is if you stand with these white people. If you stand with these white people.
Yvette Nicole Brown
Then you're our enemy. Then you're our enemy. Yep. And it was the same thing back in the Freedom Rides, back in the civil rights movement, that a lot of white people that were on those buses got killed and harmed because it's like, how dare you go against your race? Right, Right. So, yeah, you're right.
Lacey Mosley
And so the link that she sent with this, like, the brown people, they're growing in power and in numbers. Numbers. She had a link that redirected a website for her company supporting the initiative, Candace Owens, llc. Now, let me tell y'all, anybody can file for an LLC. Okay? It costs, like, $300. How you gonna. How you gonna send people a link to your llc? Talk about the blacks. They're coming. If you want to get them, then. Then you need to give money to my S Corp and to my llc. So she got donations here. Like, how. How much do you hate black people? $10 worth. A monthly donation of 25. Do you hate black people so much that you're giving me $5,000? Show me how much you hate us. I mean them. Oops. Them.
Yvette Nicole Brown
Did you read that? What the website said, though, where it says. It says, the Black Lives Matter movement is gaining more power by the day, and we must stop them. The radical left is rallying behind convicted criminals and lifting them above real heroes. If we are gonna stop this societal spiral, we must join together as conservatives. So Black Lives Matter are convicted criminals. And so who are the real heroes? Kyle Rittenhouse is a real hero.
Lacey Mosley
A murderer.
Yvette Nicole Brown
The chick that stormed the castle and got killed.
Lacey Mosley
Capitol.
Yvette Nicole Brown
Yeah, the Capitol and got killed. She's a real hero. Donald Trump is a real hero. Is that how this works?
Lacey Mosley
And she had the nerve to put her black ass on this website. Candace, at least you could not put your photo on here. You are black. Like, how you gonna be like, get them.
Yvette Nicole Brown
You are them. Girl, she ain't black.
Lacey Mosley
She wanna be not black. But I promise you, all them racists, they still see her. And they talk crap about her every day.
Yvette Nicole Brown
They see her, but she's turned against everything that' so maybe they. I don't know. Do they give a pass? Is there. What's the version of the racist cookout? How do they. What's the race? There's a barbecue.
Lacey Mosley
They definitely got pasta salad.
Yvette Nicole Brown
They got pasta salad. So they probably invited her. They invited her to the barbecue. She can go to barbecue.
Lacey Mosley
They got pasta salad, they got.
Yvette Nicole Brown
Raisins is in all of it. I know.
Lacey Mosley
Raisins is in all the food.
Yvette Nicole Brown
Raisins in all the food.
Lacey Mosley
You know you're drinking light beer and it's gas station beer. It's gas station beer for sure. Okay. You know, and that's, that's the racist.
Yvette Nicole Brown
No, with barbecue. The barbecue. It's a racist barbecue. We got the cookout, they got the barbecue.
Lacey Mosley
Now listen, I'm from Texas. Some racist can make a mean rib.
Yvette Nicole Brown
Little racist rib. You want a little bit of this racist rib.
Lacey Mosley
Listen, sometimes that racist rib be falling off a bone, okay? But the rest of it, I'm like, it's trash. So last minute appearance cancellations. In 2021, Candace waited until May 25 to cancel a June 19 event at the Washington County Republican Party WC in Oregon. Though the event had been negotiated a year before, Candace waited until several weeks before to announce the no show, citing her rigorous breastfeeding schedule.
Yvette Nicole Brown
What?
Lacey Mosley
Okay, you know they got pumps, right? Ok. She said I can't come. Cause titty milk. Okay. She said I can't come. The titties. I was gonna come, but I can't.
Yvette Nicole Brown
I mean, and what is that? And that also sets back women. I don't know how long. And women have been breastfeeding and taking care of babies and working for gender freaking racing. Like, come on now. And I'm not belittling how hard it is. I know people that have had babies, it's hard to get the baby to latch on. I know that there are issues, but she's not talking about that. She's talking about her breastfeeding schedule, which is the same schedule most moms have their kids on. You gotta feed the kid every three hours or whatever it is. That has not stopped other women from fulfilling their jobs.
Lacey Mosley
She basically said I can't come because I have a vagina. Did y'all know when you have a vagina you can't come to places sometimes? It's true. Yeah, I can't come. It's. It's the women's movement, honestly, feminism that's to blame. So she was said to be paid $30,000 for the appearance and WCRP had paid for her travel, flight, accommodations, everything. The host organization offered to make a new accommodation such as direct flights, but short of Candace requests like she wanted a private chartered flight. They were talking about we'll give you. Well, they did give her a layover. Okay. I don't know if I'm Coming for a layover. My titty. I might have to breastfeed my baby too. Do I have no baby?
Yvette Nicole Brown
You ain't got no baby. You don't have no baby.
Lacey Mosley
But who knows that I don't have a baby? I could be keeping my baby in private.
Yvette Nicole Brown
It could be, but. Ew.
Lacey Mosley
Ew, baby. I'm working.
Yvette Nicole Brown
Nope.
Lacey Mosley
Okay.
Yvette Nicole Brown
It's not your baby.
Lacey Mosley
Guys, I got a baby. Pampers sponsor me.
Yvette Nicole Brown
That's not your baby?
Lacey Mosley
No, I got a baby. I got a whole baby over here, baby. You don't know about my baby.
Yvette Nicole Brown
I do know. I do know. I do know.
Lacey Mosley
So she wanted a private flight. The host company, they couldn't afford it. It wasn't enough to keep the sold out event on schedule. Excuse me, wrcp, which I cannot say, for some reason reportedly had to issue a $17,000 refund to the guests who were coming because they wanted to see Candace and her arid edges. They wanted to see the flammable queen, you know, hopefully away from hot lights. And that's not what they were going to get. So despite Candace's claims, on June 19, evidence came out that her actual reason for canceling the appearances was because she was making another appearance at the home of the Trump supporter and a country singer, Jason Alde, for his wife's birthday. Note. In 2015, Aldean went viral when photos surfaced of him in blackface for Halloween costume. Again, guys, you don't have to do blackface. I've gone as white celebrities for Halloween time and time and again and I never went to the L'Oreal section and got the alabaster to do. So you just don't have to do it. If you're gonna be Britney Spears and you wear the suit and you bring a fake snake.
Yvette Nicole Brown
We know you, Brittany. Britney. Britney Spears. You right. You ain't lying.
Lacey Mosley
You don't have to go over there and get cream. 240 to be Britney Spears.
Yvette Nicole Brown
You don't have to do it. No, you don't. No, you don't. Now can you explain this to me? So she was supposed to go speak to this group. She canceled cause she had to breastfeed. But then she went somewhere with Jason Aldean. Was she paid for that as well?
Lacey Mosley
So I do not know if she was paid for the Jason Aldean situation. Feels like she was just trying to get her Instagram off and pop. And we got photos of her here with Jason Aldean. It's very hilarious that she was like, no, I would come but titty milk. But now she somehow could bring her breasticles to Jason Aldean.
Yvette Nicole Brown
To Jason Aldean's birthday party.
Lacey Mosley
And I don't see the baby in sight.
Yvette Nicole Brown
I don't see the baby. It's almost like your baby.
Lacey Mosley
Not the same. Cause I have a baby. Johnson and Johnson. What's good?
Yvette Nicole Brown
I don't. You don't have no tears?
Lacey Mosley
My baby don't ever cry.
Yvette Nicole Brown
When he or she sure doesn't.
Lacey Mosley
They use it.
Yvette Nicole Brown
They sure don't.
Lacey Mosley
Johnson and Johnson.
Yvette Nicole Brown
They do not cry ever.
Lacey Mosley
I got a baby. I don't know what you talk about, but I got a baby Blexit. We gotta blaze through here. Cause damn Candace got all the scams. So in 2018, Candace began a 501c3 organization called the Blexit Foundation. According to Candace, she came up with the term blexit. It feels like Brexit, sis. I don't know if you came up with that.
Yvette Nicole Brown
I did not like Brexit. She did not.
Lacey Mosley
To describe black people who have released themselves from the political orthodoxy to belonging to the Democratic Party. In actuality, the term blexit was taken from a very different Movement founded in 2017 by Malaya Connelly with the goal of encouraging African Americans to leave white financial institutions and bank black.
Yvette Nicole Brown
Wow.
Lacey Mosley
Yeah. She stole it from black woman Jesus. According to the Blexit group, we will no longer participate or contribute to the community that condones our intentional demise, referring to their economic boycotting. So this is what Blexit was really about. And she said, okay, let me sprinkle some racism on it and make it mine. She hit him with a salt bay and was like, racism. Love it. So after stealing the name for which Blexit group is suing Candace, she went on to falsely claim that Kanye west designed the merchandise for her foundation.
Yvette Nicole Brown
I remember that. That was a good story. Wow. I was so glad she got caught in that. Oh, I loved it. Go on, go on.
Lacey Mosley
She said, y'all trying to get these Yeezys, these racist Yeezys. These. We got breezies. Okay. For racism. So in a series of tweets, Kanye disputed the plane, saying, I introduced Candace to the person who made the logo, and they didn't want their name on it, so she used mine. I never wanted any association with Blexit. I have nothing to do with it.
Yvette Nicole Brown
Wow.
Lacey Mosley
When Kanye mutes. When Kanye.
Yvette Nicole Brown
Mm.
Lacey Mosley
Avid Trump supporters. My name is Bennett, and I'm not in it.
Yvette Nicole Brown
I'm not in it.
Lacey Mosley
You down bad.
Yvette Nicole Brown
You doing some mess. That's The. And look at the items. The items were not even.

Lacey Mosley
This is just. I feel bad. Anyway, so though Candace at the time, she apologized to him for feeling used in October 2021, she said that he outright lied to the world. So she was like, kanye, my bad. I wasn't trying to bring you into this. And then she was like, he lying.
Yvette Nicole Brown
Like, did she do that when he was out of the public eye so she could get away with it? Because Kanye will clap back, truly.
Lacey Mosley
So Candace today. These days, Candace continues spending her time on Twitter, appearing on conservative news outlets to suggest that the US Invade other countries for their highly effective public health measures. So, wow, so you just gonna say, like, we need to invade countries because they're embarrassing us. There was a tweet that I saw, I believe it was Korea that was saying that if you refuse to get vaccinated, that you have to pay for your healthcare if you go to the hospital with. And they were like, we gonna do you like America. Like, we're gonna treat you like an American. And I was like, damn, that's really embarrassing for us.
Yvette Nicole Brown
Cause, you know, I don't understand, like, even as I'm looking at this picture you're putting up of her. Why is anybody listening to this chick? Like, I'm trying to figure out why. Why people are going to her for anything about anything. Just because you got Your nice unit on and you finally figured out your lashes. I think that's a hair issue.

Lacey Mosley
I mean, I want to clarify. It's Singapore that was saying, like, this is the quote. If you don't get the COVID 19 vaccine in Singapore, you have to pay for your own hospitalization. But since Singapore has free universal healthcare, they're saying, we're going to treat you like an American, which is the biggest punishment you can give someone. Wow. I mean, they not wrong.
Yvette Nicole Brown
It's not like, not true.
Lacey Mosley
Now back to your point. I think that because the R word racist is like, the worst thing you can call a racist for some reason, having a black person side with your.
Yvette Nicole Brown
Views and say you're talking speak your say your talking points for you, Candace.
Lacey Mosley
Being over here, like, talk that talk. And then they're like, yes, yes. See, look, we're not evil because look at this brown. Look at this. A black who agrees with us. Like, I think that's why she's been foisted into the public eye, because it makes these people feel more humane than they are, which is so bizarre to me that people would rather perform humanity than actually be a humanitarian and a good person.
Yvette Nicole Brown
Well, you know, it's all for the gram anyway, right? Like, everybody's doing everything for the.
Lacey Mosley
Gotta do humanity for the gram.
Yvette Nicole Brown
Gotta do humanity and decency for the gram.
Lacey Mosley
Get them likes them societal likes, honey. Wow, this is such a political episode. Wow, guys, it's time for the last segment of the show, Scammer of the Week. We're staying on the vibes. The Trump Organization is once again being accused of fraud, this time for insurance rented to its New York golf course. When a freak storm flooded the Trump Organization's Westchester County, New York, golf course in a nearby town in 2011, the organization used a wildly inflated claim to score an insurance payout of nearly $1.3 million for a flood for rain on grass. Because golf course. Golf course is grass.
Yvette Nicole Brown
It is grass.
Lacey Mosley
They say, y'all, it's too much rain on our grass and we need $1.3 million. However, the cost to repair the damages was only totaled around 130,000 to $150,000. According to one former employee, the repair work wasn't even completed. Saying that they basically Just Band Aid it. The organization tried to get even more than the 1.3 million, but the insurer withheld the portion because they couldn't produce proper receipts. Additionally, they received a tidy profit after improperly modifying a series of course features that were aimed at controlling flooding, which resulted in major destruction to a nearby village in Briarcliffe. So now this golf course is, like, destroying other people's homes. Allegedly, the Trump Organization had been repeating the scam year after year to bring in more than $2 back from insurance for every dollar that it paid in premium. So they're getting a double. They flipped it, and that's a return of more than 100%. Mounting evidence of shady insurance practices over the years could pose more legal trouble for Trump, who is currently already under investigation.
Yvette Nicole Brown
Love of money is the root of all evil, because now your cam is destroying other people's homes. Like, I just. I can't.

Guest: Yvette Nicole Brown
Laci Mosley warmly welcomes listeners to "Fraud Fridays," a special segment where she revisits popular episodes from the back catalog. This episode features actress and comedian Yvette Nicole Brown, known for her roles in iCarly and Community. Laci expresses her admiration for Yvette, highlighting her versatility and the distinct personas she embodies across various platforms.
Notable Quote:
Yvette shares a personal experience of being scammed through a fraudulent LEGO website masquerading as the official site during a Black Friday sale. Enticed by low prices and claiming only PayPal was accepted (a red flag), Yvette made multiple purchases. However, the transaction turned out to be deceptive, with funds diverted to a different company and shipping originating from China.
Despite promptly contacting PayPal, the resolution was delayed, forcing Yvette to engage her credit card company, which successfully retrieved her funds. She criticizes PayPal's policies for favoring scammers over genuine victims, emphasizing the need for better protection mechanisms.
Notable Quotes:
The primary focus of the episode centers on Candace Owens, a controversial conservative figure. Laci and Yvette delve into Owens' transition from a Democrat to a staunch conservative, scrutinizing her various initiatives and alleged scams.
Candace Owens initially ran a website, Degree180, which mocked then-candidate Donald Trump. However, as political dynamics shifted, she pivoted towards conservatism, capitalizing on the growing conservative movement. The duo questions the legitimacy and impact of her efforts, suggesting financial motivations behind her political realignment.
Notable Quote:
Owens launched the Blexit Foundation in 2018, aiming to encourage African Americans to exit the Democratic Party and support conservative financial institutions. However, Laci accuses Owens of misappropriating the term "Blexit," originally coined by another black activist, to bolster her own agenda. The conversation highlights Owens' failed attempts to associate high-profile figures like Kanye West with her initiatives, leading to public disputes and loss of credibility.
Notable Quotes:
Candace Owens promoted the "Freedom Phone," marketed as a privacy-centric alternative to mainstream smartphones. The guests criticize the device for its poor security features and questionable origins, likening it to a rebranded low-quality smartphone from China. They mock the marketing strategies employed, suggesting that Owens benefits financially without offering genuine value to consumers.
Notable Quote:
In the concluding segment, Laci and Yvette discuss allegations against the Trump Organization involving insurance fraud. The organization is accused of inflating flood damage claims for its Westchester County golf course, seeking payouts significantly higher than the actual repair costs. This pattern of deceit is portrayed as habitual, further tarnishing the organization's reputation amidst ongoing legal investigations.
Notable Quotes:
The episode wraps up with Yvette promoting her various projects and clarifying her absence from certain social media platforms like Facebook and Instagram. The hosts thank Yvette for her participation and reiterate the podcast's mission to expose and discuss fraudulent activities in a comedic yet informative manner.
