Danny Wallace (Somebody Told Me / Yes Man / Who Is Tom Ditto) #596

Welcome, welcome, welcome to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip!This week Pip is joined by author, journalist and producer DANNY WALLACE!Hard to pin down what professions you'd attribute to Danny but that's a start anyway... Danny joined Pip back in 2015 for episode 30 which seems unfathomable but it's true. So of course, in 9 years, obviously stuff's basically the same and there's weirdly nothing to talk about. OF COURSE I'm being silly. It could have gone on for about the duration of Danny's audiobook, but a line must be drawn somewhere. His book 'Somebody Told Me' explores the world of the conspiracy theory, detailing the many elements contained in this wide world, and he and Pip have much to say on the subject. It's a fascinating episode with not all doom and gloom, so fear not - you won't leave sad. If this is an area that intrigues you though, it's essential listening and a timely reminder to keep your wits about you as you navigate this world, especially in the realms of social media. What is interesting too is how this stuff has always been happening - but certain factors of modern life can amplify it, including isolation. Take some notes when you listen - and remember not only to tell people what you heard by saying "I heard on this podcast that...", but to end each sentence with an enigmatic "You'll see...". You'll see.
