    It's time for a little Orson Welles here on Roll It, as this episode we're discussing his endlessly fascinating and unique documentary, F for Fake. This is definitely a film that stretches your mind and makes you think about the nature of things like truth, fakes, art, and artists. Welles paints a dazzling picture of how lies and illusions can create truth, and sometimes masterpieces. We try to make as much sense as possible rambling about this film, so tune in and if you haven't already, please watch F for Fake.  Contact us at rollitpodcast@gmail.com or follow us!    Twitter - @RollItPodcast    Instagram - @rollitpodcast    Music by Ethan Rapp
