You Don't Say...
Stories from the Drew Zagorski Files - Totally True Facts - Alternate facts have caused a lot of unnecessary violence, strife and mischief. So, Totally True Facts are vignettes that offer grains of truth about what actually happened throughout history, but they're surrounded by some creative alternate facts that I hope will give you a reason to grin, if not laugh, and provide an escape from the reality of an all too factually messed up world. These are parodies. Let me say that again – parodies. Names have been changed in most cases to protect the innocent, though in others, names of actual people are used for the purpose of presenting the as mentioned parody. My hope is that you’ll latch on to one of these facts and look up the totally, totally true facts about it on your own. You Don't Say... (youdontsay.net) is a production of LeftBrainRightBrain Marketing (lbrbm.com). NOTE: Episodes 1 through 61 are using our old, more fact-based format, so they are not in the same genre as episodes 62 and forward.
