Netflix's "Dirty Pop: The Boy Band Scam" examines how talent manager Lou Pearlman launched the careers of iconic boy bands including NSYNC and the Backstreet Boys while also orchestrating one of the longest-running Ponzi schemes in U.S. history, scamming clients out of at least $500 million before he was nabbed by the FBI. Michael Johnson, the executive producer of "Dirty Pop: The Boy Band Scam," and "Natural" former lead singer Ben Bledsoe join NewsNation's Brian Entin to discuss.
