press your luck

Stop on a Whammy!  

Game shows have been on television for many decades.  Average people, playing a variety of different games, for cash and prizes.  But we decided to take a look at some of the game shows that we loved as kids.  From Press Your Luck to Family Feud to Price is Right and everything in between!  We also go over some of the great cheating scandal's that plagued some game shows in the early days and the impact it had at the time.  So sit tight as we explore the world of Game Shows and so much more!!

In this episode, we sit down with famed stage magician and infamous instructor of the school of scams, Brian Brushwood, whose new podcast explores the world's greatest con artists and con jobs from World War II to modern game shows.

We cover everything in this episode from why you can't con an honest person to the power of shame and fame to folk psychology to how the British conned Hitler using one of the oldest tricks in the book to how one man broke the code for Press Your Luck earning him the most money ever awarded in a single day on any program in the history of game shows.
