In this week’s episode, we’re bringing you a very important deep dive into influencer and author Caroline Calloway. This episode was inspired by renewed discourse about Caroline as she recently released a self-published “memoir” 'Scammer' which has taken the internet by storm. We first break down who Caroline Calloway is and why she’s internet famous before exploring her relationship with writer Natalie Beach– a relationship that catapulted Caroline’s name into the mainstream for better or worse. We finish by covering the reviews of her book and what might be next for her.
