Show notes

F for Fake, the 1973 essay film from Orson Welles is a story of art forgery, the phony autobiography of Howard Hughes, and quite a bit of sleight of hand from our humble narrator, Mr. Welles himself.

Peter Flynn and Spencer Parsons join Mike to discuss hoaxes, magic tricks, and the power of editing.

Special guest Matthew Asprey Gear also joins the conversation.
