DUCKS, WOLFGANG AMADEUS MOZART, MAKE UP, THOMAS EDISON | The Unbelievable Truth | David Mitchell

Описание: Welcome to the show where the facts are as strange as the fictions are ridiculous. Hosted by the master of the logical meltdown, David Mitchell, this episode of The Unbelievable Truth challenges our panellists to hide five genuine truths inside a lecture made entirely of lies.

In this collection, we explore the surprisingly aggressive world of Ducks, the scatological genius of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, the toxic history of Makeup, and the questionable ethics of Thomas Edison. Can you spot the facts, or will the panel smuggle them past you?


🎙️ The "Unbelievable" Topics:
Ducks: They look harmless on a pond, but their biological reality is a nightmare of physics and strange evolutionary traits. Prepare for a lecture that is truly "all it's quacked up to be."

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart: Beyond the symphonies and the prodigy status lies a man with a very specific (and often filthy) sense of humor. Our panellist tries to separate the musical genius from the bizarre personal habits.

Makeup: People have gone to extreme lengths for beauty, including applying lead, arsenic, and even stranger substances to their faces. The truths hidden here are as startling as they are dangerous.

Thomas Edison: The "Wizard of Menlo Park" held over 1,000 patents, but how many of them were actually his? This lecture dives into the bright ideas and dark rivalries of America’s most famous inventor.

📖 How the Game Works:
Each panellist delivers a lecture that is almost entirely made up of lies. However, they must hide five unbelievable truths within the script.

The Goal: The other players must "buzz in" when they think they hear a genuine fact.

The Penalty: Points are awarded for spotting a truth, but you lose points if you "buzz" on a lie.

The Smuggle: If a speaker gets a truth past the entire panel without being noticed, they score double points!
