You Canât Make This Up


At the dawn of the social media era, Belle Gibson became a pioneering wellness influencer - telling the world how she beat cancer with an alternative diet. Her bestselling cookbook and online app provided her success, respect, and a connection to the cancer-battling influencer she admired the most. But a curious journalist with a sick wife began asking questions that even those closest to Belle began to wonder. Was the online star faking her cancer and fooling the world? Kaitlyn Dever stars in the Netflix hit series Apple Cider Vinegar . Inspired by true events, the dramatized story follows Belleâs journey from self-styled wellness thought leader to disgraced con artist. It also explores themes of hope and acceptance - and how far weâll go to maintain it. In this episode of You Can't Make This Up, host Rebecca Lavoie interviews executive producer Samantha Strauss. SPOILER ALERT! If you haven't watched Apple Cider Vinegar yet, make sure to add it to your watch-list before listening on. Listen to more from Netflix Podcasts .âŠ

This Episode paints a lil picture of where the journey began ,upstairs above a laundrette , and the need to find adventure from an early age . It touches on the rather rustic childhood I had in a rural town before moving closer to the bigger cities and the characters I encountered. From kids knocking me out with bricks to thugs trying to beat me ,to male strippers and a farmer called red vest . Itâs probably easier just to listen .âŠ
