Taming Woofy with Jon Ronson

This week we chat to one of our journalistic heroes, Jon Ronson, about: conspiracy theorists, 9/11 truthers, MI5 agents becoming the son of God and just why people believe silly things. We also witness Jon attempting to train his dog Woofy, which only furthers my belief that people really don't realise how much of a pain in the ass dogs actually are!...i'm a cat person.

Joining me this week to grill our guest is our re-occuring charecter, Raymond Wiley! For those studious listeners out there (no pun intended), Raymond appeared as our guest on episodes 1 and 6, and like me, is a big jon Ronson fan!
