The thing about Darknet Diaries... the host, intentionally or not, imitates Ira Glass to even the level of his verbal ticks. It's so close a match that it's creepy.

I wondered if "Jack Rhysider" might actually be Ira Glass, so I google image'd him. Try it -- he has somehow polluted google images with his name such that google images shows myriad different faces to his name. Cool trick -- not sure how he managed it.

I don't think he had to do anything, I have a rather unique name, yet Google also shows a bunch of faces. I think it's the algorithm detecting that you're search for a person, and therefore shows you faces. If there aren't enough photos of you, it'll show other results.
