Extended Cut Hoax Spectacular! with Chelsey Weber-Smith
Here is a longer version (Carolyn's Cut, if you will) of today's episode, featuring even more hoax goodness—plus a Nessie theory I personally find very persuasive.

Brilliant, funny and well-researched!
You’re Wrong About is one of my favourite podcasts! Mike & Sarah are fantastic hosts who put an incredible amount of time, effort and energy into researching their subjects. The chemistry between them makes you feel at home, and the rhythm is excellent (and that’s can be so difficult when you work in tandem, so kudos to you)! . I’m not American so this is also a refreshing "behind the scenes" yet nuanced perspective on the narratives and patterns of American culture that a lot of us grew up with. Mike and Sarah, you’re the highlight of my week, thank you for your great work!
