Our producer Jillian is here, she said she had a recent problem.

So I was having a conversation with a big group of people the other week and I didn't know the people very well.

So I was a bit trying to be pretend to be a nice person and one person was explaining

that theory where if a horse is standing on two legs the person riding it on a

statue died differently.

Yeah.

Like if the horse has one leg up the guy died in battle or something.

Yeah.

And we all know that's not true.

It's not true.

It's not true. It's not true. And I knew it wasn't true and everyone around me was nodding and the

person was really into telling their story and I just didn't say anything because

I didn't want to be that guy. Yeah. It doesn't it

doesn't look good to correct someone. No. Especially someone you barely know. Yeah I'd

met this person like five minutes previously.

Mm.

Not good.

They must be really dumb.

So I'm wondering is there a good way of telling someone they're wrong without making them hate me.

We really need the right person, the absolute most qualified person for this.
