EP. 146 — The Cunning Clairvoyant w/ Eric Mosley
What’s poppin’ con- gregation? This week, we got Eric Mosley discussing how a psychic conned Vera Pratt, a well-traveled heiress, out of her inheritance under the guise of curing her of demons. Plus, one wife of former California State Senator is in hot water after a Bay Area news organization discovered she plagiarized her book from Wikipedia. Stay Schemin’!
