The Wonka Experience & TanaCon w/ Josh Gondelman

What's Poppin' Con-gregation? This week, Josh Gondelman joins the show to discuss the cons for conferences. First, we discuss the ridiculously underwhelming Wonka experience in Glasgow, Scotland followed by the unorganized beauty conference TanaCon hosted by YouTube beauty influencer Tana Mongeau in Anaheim, CA in 2018. Stay Schemin' and let the scam find you! This was recorded on April 01, 2024. Check out Josh Gondelman at the Bell House in NYC on June 21st!
