I laugh at your absurdity

As I mentioned before in my original post, I plan to approach my hoax from a comedic standpoint. To do this, I want to expose contradictions within my hoax and then show the absurdity that people believed. That way, I can use humor to uncover the stupidity of the hoax and its implications.

I am considering my method for how I can do this most effectively. My first idea is to have a central host for the podcast that interviews “experts” on my subject and to use their information to make conclusions. That way, I can use rhetorical analysis tools to pick apart my hoax based on the extra information that my interviewees would give me.

The second option is to use an approach similar to the Sawbones podcast. I would have an analytical character who would do most of the explaining of the hoax and a commentator character who would add humor. The commentator would make funny comments and use questions to expose absurdities in the hoax. Either way, I have a good idea of what I want to do.
