Podcast Corner: Hoaxed is a gripping portrayal of a terrible situation 

The Hoaxed podcast is presented by Alexi Mostrous.

Sweet Bobby, the six-part series about a catfishing story in the UK, was one of the best shows of 2021. (For those not aware of this very 21st-century term, 'catfishing' involves luring someone into a relationship using a fictional online persona.)
