Ned and Meg talk about intentionally false statements, which is what the OED defines as a lie. We discuss all sorts of lies, and how they fit into some of our favorite television shows like The Circle, and Taskmaster. We dip into discussion of KC Green’s comic adaptation of the classic, Pinocchio. We survey all the forms lies take, and we talk about the enormous problem of researchers who lie to further their careers or because they’re biased as hell in favor of themselves (ahem, doctors). We also rag on prank videos and any other sort of surprise that requires circumventing consent. Thank you for listening to us, wash your hands, and don’t be a dick!
