A few episodes ago, I promised we’d dive into the world of Side Show Gaffs — and today, we’re finally making good on that. It’s the perfect starting point, because many of the hoaxes and oddities we’ll explore later all trace their roots back here.A "gaff," in sideshow terminology, is a clever trick, illusion, or prop used to create an amazing attraction that isn't entirely real. It's not meant to be a malicious fraud but rather a theatrical enhancement for entertainment.
