I recently saw 冗談だっつの. What does it っつの mean, or how does it modify the
meaning of a sentence?

What does っつの mean?
っつ (sometimes つう) is a slang version of という (or an alternate version like
といった, depending on the context). It's extremely informal.

> 冗談【じょうだん】だ **っつ** の。 (＝冗談だ【じょうだん】 **といった** の。) I said I was joking.
> [Idiomatically: Chill out, I was just kidding.]
>
> 彼【かれ】はやめたい **っつって** んだから、やめさせてやりゃいいじゃん。 (＝彼【かれ】はやめたい **といっている**
> んだから、やめさせてやればいいじゃない。) He's saying he wants to quit, so why not let him?
>
> まぁ、なん **つう** かさ、ちょっとまずいっすね。 (＝まぁ、なん **という** かさ、ちょっとまずいですね。) Well, it's…what
> should I say…kind of a bad situation.
