Jesse Ridgway has spent twenty years fabricating events and presenting them as real. Staged family violence. A billion views. A thousand 911 calls. A platform that burned through a million users. And now a pregnancy announcement that may or may not be real, from a man whose entire career is a case study in making people believe things that didn’t happen. Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott joins for a three-part investigation. Part one: the brain — Munchausen by Internet, the escalation pattern, and what a clinician hears when Jesse says “I’m normal.” Part two: the machine — trolling versus compulsion, the dopamine loop that 4.3 million subscribers create, and whether anyone can pull the plug. Part three: the audience — why outrage is chemically addictive, why the not-knowing makes it worse, and whether every click guarantees he never stops. Three parts. One question: is Jesse Ridgway a fraud, or is this something worse?
