The Strange Case of Peter Bergmann & A Deepfake Cheerleading Scandal
Season 4, Episode 352, Sep 16, 2021, 02:43 AM
It’s an unintentional true crime episode! Who’s ready for some sultry Kathleen “sexy voice?” Our girl has strep throat but she’s showing up like a champ to discuss the cheerleading scandal that introduced a lot of people to the world of “deep fake videos” - taking a video of one person and editing a different person over them! But was this really a case of edited footage? Bethany is talking about a man who showed up in Sligo, Ireland, and disappeared forever! But did he even exist in the first place? Plus some sweet sweet #TowelContent that we forced our editor to keep in.
