On Eavesdroppin’ comedy podcast this week, Geordie and Michelle look at the confusing, confounding, reality-bending Jejune Institute… 


If you were in San Francisco in 2008, you might have seen intriguing posters and flyers for something called The Jejune Institute. After tearing off a small square of paper from the bottom of the poster and calling the number, you would be transported into the world of Nonchalance and into a game of inter-dimensional hopscotch that saw people questioning reality, themselves and the world they lived in. You'd follow clues, make phone calls, get followed, realise an entire street with thousands of people was fake... It was a mind-bending experience and highly organised. Or was it? This week, Geordie looks at this bizarre institute and questions whether the entire set up was just highly complex immersive theatre, a real game that actually existed or whether it was an art hoax designed to blur the lines between fact and fiction with a fake documentary...


So pop on your headphones, grab a brown lemonade and join Geordie & Michelle for this week’s episode, plus chit-chat about Gene Hackman, fluffy pussies and more, only on Eavesdroppin’ podcast. And remember, wherever you are, whatever you do, just keep Eavesdroppin’!
