I too have heard the saying "It's a load of malarkey" - meaning it's a load
of rubbish. It all sounds the same but the spelling is different. This
comes from www.dictionary.com

ma·lar·key also ma·lar·ky (m-lärk).
n. Slang

Exaggerated or foolish talk, usually intended to deceive: “snookered by a
lot of malarkey” (New Republic).
