I was really gripped by this story. I particularly enjoyed the campy voices depicting the antagonist and her lawyer. Very funny. She must be mortified my this. And she so deserves it. Great podcast.
Let me get this straight this woman comes into your life like a wrecking ball absolutely destroying your families financial security lies to you manipulates you and your family marries you under false pretenses, etc. but you feel conflicted about reading her emails? Come on bro stop it! LoL. Love the podcast though!
Amazing, impossible story of a complicated woman and what she lives behind. The ending was heart-warming.
One of the best podcasts Inlistened to in 2025.
I listen to A LOT of
Podcasts and they all have annoyingly repetitive ads but this was the worst yet. If I have to hear Gladwell say “OOOKla”
one more time I’ll tear my hair out.
And also, this family sounds beyond gullible. Even at the end confronting Leslie they kept up the gullibility. Hard to justify.
