ODB: Movie Review of Barbie

00:00

55:27

Patty and JD review the Barbie movie, directed by Greta Gerwig. We also discuss the fraud committed by Ruth Handler and her staff. In February 1978, Handler, three other former Mattel officers, and a supervisor were indicted by a federal grand jury for conspiracy, mail fraud, and making false financial statements to the Securities and Exchange Commission. At the time her sentence was one of the harshest for this type of crime.

Also we would like for our listeners to call or email us about your Dirty Bench Confessions. Maybe you know someone who committed fraud. Maybe you want to email us that you ate the last cookie, defrauding the household. Whatever it is we want to hear it.
