Yado Salama
She names the tell
They never fool Yado Salama — the grandmother everyone underestimates. She spots every trick, and by the end, she'll have taught you how.
Every scam has a tell, and Yado Salama has spent a lifetime noticing them. Each Friday in October she catches a new suspect and names the one thing that gave them away, so that by the end you can spot it too.
