Welcome to the newest addition to the Nerdist Podcast Network, in association with WNYC/New York, Lies with Sara Schaefer. The show is completely improvised and fake: guests are required to lie about everything. It’s 100% honesty-free, and hilarious. Revealing nothing turns out to reveal more than you’d expect. And you’ll be hearing some great guests lying up a storm in coming weeks.
First up: The comedian and author of Dad Is Fat was only fat for a little while. On this week’s episode, Jim Gaffigan deconstructs the beauty myth; talks gymnastics; takes a call from a fan of his yoga videos; and reveals the difference between “this and that” and “that and this.”

See Lies live on Thursday, November 6, 2014 as part of the New York Comedy Festival — the show at the Jerome L. Greene Performance Space at WNYC will begin at 9 pm. Tickets are $25, which includes a complimentary beer. For tickets and more information, please visit www.thegreenespace.org.
