Popstar Ponzi : The Life and Crimes of Louis J Pearlman

This is Bed Crime Stories - a weekly True Crime Podcast where your hosts pour themselves a drink and take turns telling one another the stories that keep them up at night!  In this new episode of Bed Crime Stories, Charlie tells the saga of pop star impresario, Lou Pearlman - creator of the Backstreet Boys, *NSync, O-Town, and many other pop acts of the late 90s and early 00s - who also masterminded one of the largest Ponzi schemes in US History, swindling investors and banks out of more than $300 million. True Crime and comedy... Sounds crazy, we know. We add humor to cope with the harsh reality of the stories we tell and alleviate some of the heaviness for our listeners. No one here at Bed Crime Stories are experts, just lifelong fans of all-things true crime.
