Yeah, he has a bunch of tells like that. “Like you wouldn’t believe” means it’s definitely a lie, “Nobody knew X” means “I didn’t know this thing everyone else knows until they explained it to me”.

I love how he telegraps his lies. “Which is possible,” means that it is not possible and people have told him that. “People are saying” means that it is something no one is saying or has said before it came out of his mouth.

Don’t forget “nobody ever knew” = I just found out. Usually something basic.

“Nobody knew it was this complicated” is a line I remember, not sure in what context it was sadly

It’s similar, it means roughly “I didn’t know it was this complicated.”
