Is saying 'there's a twist' a spoiler?

the take

"no spoilers, but there's a huge twist" is a spoiler, and we will not be taking questions. tell us the premise, tell us something from the trailer, give us a hook, just don't give us a twist. stay for the end, where we work out that the biggest twist of all is no twist, which is also basically the podcast. we know people who spoil things are usually just excited, but you need to control yourself. "i liked it" is plenty. and now that everyone expects a twist, the next big thing is a double twist.

this is the hosts' commentary and speculation for entertainment, not a statement of fact about anyone in it.
