Full Episode
I know something's wrong when someone tells me about a scam and then my first thought is, nice, are you serious? And then I have to catch myself and go, oh wait, hey, whoa, whoa, wait a minute. Don't get to the manager. She's doing this with the ID. Oh, that's, that's, am I, why am I sweating? They pull up your credit card and they go, huh?
And I go, you know, it's everything in me not to go, what? He realizes, wait a second.
I haven't been sentenced yet.
I got caught, like, mid-act. It was actually a Buccaneers cheerleader. I mean, when am I going to get a chance to hit a Buccaneers cheerleader? Buccaneers cheerleader. You got to. I mean, to me, that's like a, you get a pass. I mean, remember, stranger danger. You know, I feel like that book will lose me a lot of people. People will read that and be like, you've got some issues.
Like, it's not, I mean, it is hilarious, though. But it's, yeah, it's disturbing to me. I watched a video of mine the other day, and I thought, damn. You subscribed to your own video. You're good. You should be huge. Yeah, I feel like this should go on its own. This is not what we're here to talk about. This is not what we're talking about.
Well, okay, so we're here to talk about the apathy I'm going through right now, right? Yes. The disappointment, all that bullshit. So... A few things, man. It's like, you know me, I'm the guy who calls out bullshit. I've made a career these days of calling out the bullshit that's going on, both on the bad guy's side and with companies and everything.
So recently, it started with, it started before that, but it started with Blue Acorn and Womply. So there's been a few reports that both of these fintech companies helped to facilitate. What is a fintech company? So not a traditional financial institution, which you are more than familiar with. So this is like PayPal, the people who aren't traditional banks but do banking-type business.
Okay. Would also like payday loans and where they cash advances?
It depends on if they're more online. So you do have some fintech companies that do the payday type stuff that aren't brick and mortar. Okay. So it's more internet based.
