Remember the film, CATCH ME IF YOU CAN with Leonardo DiCaprio about the world's greatest counterfeiter?  Well, this is the opposite. Yup.The world's absolute worst God awful counterfeiter who ever lived. Emerich Juettnner's attempts at counterfeiting one dollar bills were so laughably bad, they looked and felt like what can only be described today as Monopoly money.  But to his amazement, throughout the 1930's and 40's, he was able to elude...and annoy the FBI for over a decade with his heinous bogus bucks .  The history books may have forgotten about Emerich Juettner, but we sure haven't.      Listen to Scoundrel ad-free, with bonus content, at KastMedia.com/KastPlus Listen to Scoundrel ad-free, with bonus content at Amazon MusicSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
