This is fact checking, but not as we know it!

Every day, we are bombarded with news, facts, fake news, videos and links we just love to click on. But what should we believe and what is fake? Our three hosts go to great lengths to find out.  

Each episode, they will examine three facts for their truthfulness, trying to distinguish truth from falsehood. A mix of fun, big, small and controversial facts. Is it really true that less than one in four people pass their driving test? Can Tequila really help you lose weight? And do hotels always change their sheets for a new guest? 

With the newsroom as their headquarters, our hosts act as guinea pigs and test everything themselves. They will leave no stone unturned to discover the truth!
