Society EN ↓ 7 Folgen

What happens when a late-diagnosed autistic woman with synesthesia decides to hack her own life in the name of adventure? Meet Jen Friel—writer, entrepreneur, and accidental internet pioneer—who once quit her job to "give up everything she owned" (pre-influencer marketing being a 'thing') and live off of social media. Her experiment turned into a viral brand that was optioned by Jerry Bruckheimer and purchased as a put-pilot at CBS (after a four-way bidding war between ABC, CBS, NBC, and FOX ... of course). This isn't just another podcast—it's a ride through identity, chaos, resilience, and th...

EP. 6 - That Time a Thud in the Hallway Led to an Actor & an Almost Impossible Phone Contact 09.07.2026

You know the saying: the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results. But no one talks about what happens when you say the same thing over and over. When you keep telling a story that sounds impossible to people who aren't quite ready to believe it, and you say it anyway, because you know what you saw.   This is the episode where Jen stops waiting t...

EP. 5 - That Time I Met A Human Lie Detector 02.07.2026

When every option narrows to one — disappear — Jen does what she's always done. She refuses. Armed with new information and a growing list of people willing to help, she follows a thread that leads her to one of the most credible truth detectors in the country. But getting answers isn't as simple as asking the right questions. Sometimes the person you trust to find the truth is hiding one of their...

EP. 4 - That Time I Befriended A Modern Day Shaman 25.06.2026

Jen had the evidence. The footage. The eyewitness accounts. The background reports. The professional confirmation. She had done everything right — and still, the picture wasn't complete. The why kept slipping through her fingers.   This episode is about the conversation that changed the direction of everything. From a COVID-era speakeasy hidden behind an alley in Mid-City, to a support group phone...

EP. 3 - That Time I Was Surrounded by Idiots 19.06.2026

For years, Jen had been telling people what she was seeing. The body language. The patterns. The feeling that something was deeply, deliberately wrong. And for years, she had been met with skepticism, silence, or a polite suggestion to try again later. This episode is about the moment that changed. From a hotel lobby to a police station to a spa in Koreatown, Jen pieces together a story that is st...

Ep. 2 - That Time My Pics Were Shared Without Permission 11.06.2026

Jen Friel boards a cruise ship with her family, knowing she's still being followed. She tries to push it out of her mind. It takes less than a day for the pattern to reappear. But this time, something is different. The behavior is bolder. More coordinated. And Jen is done being silent. What happens next sets off a chain of events that takes her from international waters to a police station lobby,...

Ep. 1 - That Time I Found Out My "Followers" Were Real 05.06.2026

Jen Friel can read a stranger in seconds. She always thought it was intuition — until the strangers started showing up everywhere. Watching. Rotating. Following a pattern only she could see. For years, no one believed her. Friends were confused. The police couldn't help. But Jen documented everything and refused to give up. When a single piece of surveillance footage finally proved what was happen...

Talk Nerdy To Me - Trailer 22.05.2026

If you were born knowing your brain was different, would you still try to think like everyone else? Or would you blaze your own path?   Jen Friel is a trailblazer. She crashed the Grammy Awards, taught Pablo Escobar's surgeon how to use Twitter, and regularly invites Buzz Aldrin to her parties. Her life story is so unbelievable that Jerry Bruckheimer optioned it twice. But behind the wild adventur...
