S02E014 - Get out of the Scam Schedule w/ Janie Stolar

This week, comedian and writer Janie Stolar joins Caity to discuss a scam rooted in the most iconic con of all: The American Dream. No matter what your thoughts and feelings are on that picture-perfect lifestyle, the pressure still manages to seep into our daily lives. Do I have a car and two kids and a great IRA by the time I’m 30? Isn’t owning a home a scam, but aren’t you also expected to own a home? Janie joins to confront all the hidden judgments we battle as we age, and the ways we fool ourselves to believe not hitting these imaginary targets makes us flawed. So stop scamming yourselves guys, you are doing great! In her new podcast Iconic Timing, Janie explores this entire concept with guests each week. Check it out, because we know Scamwow listeners will love it too. Listen to Janie’s podcast here. Plus hear more about this episode on our Patreon.
