"A deliciously insightful exploration of why we are so obsessed with gossip, and what it can tell us about humans and their search for truth". “Can you keep a secret?” It’s harder than it seems – after all, it’s only human to thirst after the juicy updates, jaw-dropping stories, and idle chatter that we typically collect over drinks with friends. No one knows this better than journalist Kelsey McKinney, whose Normal Gossip podcast has accrued a listenership of millions. In "You Didn't Hear This From Me", McKinney explores the murkiness of everyday storytelling. What even is gossip, and why is it considered a sin? Why are we obsessed with the details of celebrity drama and tabloid headlines? How do we use and abuse gossip – and why do we want to do it at all? NOTE: Each ticket includes admission to the event + 1 signed copy of the book.
