Dr. Ronald Dante is een getalenteerde hypnotiseur (en geen echte dokter) wiens verbluffende plannen decennia omspannen. Dante werkte in de rokerige nachtclubs van het Hollywood uit de jaren 1960 en ging mee op de zelfhulp-hype van de jaren 1980 en 90, waarbij hij vrouwen hypnotiseerde om hun fortuin af te staan, opdrachten gaf om zijn rivalen uit te schakelen en een van de grootste nepuniversiteiten in de geschiedenis opende. Presentator Sam Mullins volgt Dante langs jachtclubs, gevangeniscellen, trailerparken en pretparken om het ongelofelijke ware verhaal te onthullen van de grootste oplichter waarvan je nog nooit hebt gehoord.
Dr. Ronald Dante is a talented hypnotist (and not an actual doctor) whose mind-bending schemes span decades. Dante worked the smoke-filled nightclubs of 1960s Hollywood and rode the self-help craze of the 1980s and 90s, hypnotizing women out of their fortunes, taking out hits on his rivals and opening up one of the biggest fake universities in history. Host Sam Mullins tracks Dante through yacht clubs, prison cells, trailer parks and theme parks to uncover the unbelievable true story of the greatest con man you’ve never heard of.
