We talk about self-proclaimed prophet turned sovereign citizen Sean David Morton. This guy runs the gamut of conspiracy tropes from weather weapons to biblical numerology, and we only cover one appearance of many on Coast to Coast AM.

This episode is a spiritual successor to the last episode about Jordan Belfort. Instead, we talk about what is considered to be the biggest kleptocracy in modern history. A theft that lead to the development and production of the movie "The Wolf of Wall Street".

Everyone loves a comeback story, well this ain't one of them. We're talking about Martin Scorsese helped to promote an otherwise average con man into one of the biggest figures on the bro-finance internet. We're talking movies, penny stocks, fake apology tours, and, of course, crypto. That's right, it's Jordan Belfort.

It's the first show of 2023 and we've decided to check in on a few of the grifters we've covered to see what they were up to. We talk Andrew Tate (unfortunately) and Dave Miscavige. We also chat a little bit about New York congressman George Santos and try to find Charly a baby mama.

This is a big one. The whole reason there's an IYCMG is because of a podcast about Alex Jones. We're joined by Joe Sposto to talk about Alex's origin story and how he came to be liable for 1.5 billion dollars because he's an opportunist that can't keep his mouth shut.
You can follow Joe on Twitter at: @JoeSposto or check out his podcasts Long Box Heroes & At Odds With Wrestling

"America's Doctor" is a pretty fitting moniker for Dr. Mehmet Oz. He started with some credibility, got a TV show where he hawked questionable medical advice, made millions, and is now running for the US Senate. The American Dream.

We're going back into the belly of the beast with our second installment of the Prison Industrial Complex mini-series. This time we're looking at food suppliers within the carceral system and how they put profits over providing nutrition to the people they are contracted to serve. Specifically, we're talking about the most significant player in the space: Aramark.

While most people associate Scientology with its founder, L Ron Hubbard, there's another guy who's ushered the organization into the modern age, refining the scheme to squeeze out the most money from its followers. That man is David Miscavige. We're joined by Gay Dave from Echoplex Media to discuss Miscavige's rise to power. (Also, what happened to his wife?)

If you watched daytime talk shows in the 90's and 2000's you know exactly who this is. The queen of the psychic grift, Sylvia Browne. This is not an episode about a sweet old lady, in fact Sylvia might be at the very center of the "If You Catch My Grift" cinematic universe.

Part one of a special non-weekly series about how the incarcerated and their families are preyed upon financially by for-profit companies. We take a deep dive into one of the companies that have made a lot of money directly from prisoners. We talk about the origins of the company and what they're up to today including the revelation of who actually owns the company (hint: it ain't good).

While not exactly a grifter, she's certainly grifter-adjacent. And man, we just needed to take a break from all the terrible people and talk about someone who seemed like a decent human being. Plus, Austin loves her and will talk about Tammy Faye anytime anyone wants to.
