One of the more outrageous moments on Feast of Fun was back in 2009 when our friend

Terriaki told us the tale of Lady Vera Parker, a drag queen who got arrested and pleaded

guilty to fraud for posting fake apartment ads on Craiglist, and then stealing the security deposits

from renters. When she was caught, Lady Vera Parker was living in a U-Haul truck with all

her drag. Local Chicago folks were shocked by the news, and it wasn't long before the scene gave

Lady Vera Parker the cut. We never thought we'd hear from her again, and then almost a decade later, Lady Vera Parker

popped up and was still scamming people, but now as psychic Thomas John.

Today, skeptic and psychic buster, Susan Gerbick, joins us to talk about how she and a group

of colleagues created Operation Pizza Roll

to prove that Thomas John was not a psychic and that he based his readings off of information he gleaned from social media.

Listen as we take a look at how people double down when they realize they're being scammed.

Why drag queens love can't be

psychics like Sylvia Brown and Miss Cleo, and why most psychics find it hard to walk away from

robbing people. I'm Fausto Furnos. I'm Mark Fillion. And this is Feast of Fun. Feece of Fun has made possible because of fabulous people like you.
