Candid confessions: why oversharing is good for going viral

This week's show is about candid confessions - why oversharing and sombre selfie videos do well online.

From the TikTok actor Lewis Saunderson clarifying his dramatic videos about personal tragedies, to 'Crazy Plane Lady' Tiffany Gomes not really explaining what went on in that viral video - and the saucier side, from the wife detailing why her husband isn't allowed to watch nude scenes in Oppenheimer to the precise measurements of tech entrepreneur Bryan Johnson's erections online.

There's also a great story of the power of community, with football fans rallying round to help Norwich fan Nathan West after he was targeted by nasty trolls. And talking of community - the most hilarious Twitter Community Notes. 

And finally, how the horror film community still supported a teenage TikToker when she revealed her fake film, Zepotha, was a ruse to publicise her new album.
