The small-time podcaster who brought down Ohio State University President Ted Carter appeared to have a “school girl crush” on him during the multiple interviews he granted her, according to body language expert Susan Constantine.

urged a private nonprofit to sponsor a failing podcast hosted by the woman at the center of his “inappropriate relationship” – but the business partnership blew up. Jobs Ohio wound up paying the prexy’s purported paramour, Krisanthe Vlachos, $60,000 to do four episodes of “The Callout Podcast”,” a show about veteran’s issues, but only one was produced, the group said Jobs Ohio is now trying to “clawback” the $60,000 contract with Vlachos, whose cozy relationship with Carter has been linked to his abrupt “ Ohio State is a trusted partner,” Jobs Ohio said in their post.

“And Admiral Carter recommended The Callout Podcast as an opportunity to build and engage a military and veteran audience in Ohio and connect them to the massive job opportunities.”Following Carter’s introduction, the economic development group entered a contractual agreement with Vlachos, in which she’d be paid $15,000 for each of the four pilot episodes she was supposed to produce between last September and December.

JobsOhio also dished out $10,000 to sponsor a January 2025 event for vets and military families at Ohio State – “Last Out: Elegy of a Green Beret” – which was “an opportunity that Ms. Vlachos brought to our attention,” the group said. But the hemorrhaging partnership did include providing the podcaster a pass to attend the 2026 Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, where“ was there to meet people and identify angles for the remaining three podcasts,” JobsOhio said on X, adding that she has still not submitted any requests for reimbursement, despite the agency allotting $5,000 for her travel expenses. All episodes of “The Callout Podcast” – where Carter admittedly was a “frequent flyer” — were hastily removed from YouTube and other streaming services Wednesday. By the next day, Carter and Vlachos were together again – this time at the Student Veterans of America 2026 national conference in Colorado Springs, which took place Jan. 8-10. A cozy photo from the conference shows the podcaster clad in an all-black leather get-up while smiling alongside the former university leader. She captioned the pic calling Carter her “dear friend and mentor.” JobsOhio’s hand-outs for Vlachos came to an end, however, when she requested the agency invest in her proposed mobile app, which aimed to help Ohio veterans get jobs. “We conducted due diligence and decided not to move forward with any investment,” the group said on X, adding that Vlachos had also made the proposal to the OSU President’s office. Before entering into the muddied partnership with Vlachos, “We found no irregularities in our contracting or our vetting process and JobsOhio followed all appropriate protocols in our partnerships with The Ohio State University President and in our sponsorship with the podcaster.”Carter resigned Monday after confessing to giving “inappropriate access to Ohio State leadership” to a woman seeking help with her business.
