Our curated selection of reviews
As a longtime listener of Lore, Noble Blood, and The Disappearing Spoon, I have a high bar for historical podcasts. Hoax doesn't just meet it; it clears it with a grin.
The show captures that dark, atmospheric vibe I love, but adds a layer of sharp, biting humor that is often missing from the genre. It’s a brilliant look at the anatomy of a lie—meticulously researched, yet delivered with a wit that keeps the heavy subject matter from feeling clinical. It’s rare to find a show that makes you smarter while actually making you laugh out loud. Highly recommended.

This is a fun series. The shows are often stories we remember, but their deep dives add life and laughter to the events. Dana’s and Lizzie’s banter gives glimpses into the sharp, witty, insightful minds it takes for this caliber of reporting. It’s a delightful way to spend an hour of your precious time.

Oh my gosh! What a fun show! I heard about this from an advertisement on one of the True Crime podcasts I listen to & decided to give it a go. So glad I did! The two hosts have such good rapport-clearly, they enjoy learning, and their banter plays well to the listener. A fun little side trip from all the mess happening all around us!
