  • “Is This Real?” Eric Watts and Josh Duensing

    ITR Still 01

    Is this Real is a critically acclaimed investigative talk show hosted by Eric Watts and Josh Duensing.

    “That’s the paradox. You have this string of lies, and by this detour you arrive at a form of truth which is more precise, one hopes, than something which is strictly provable.” – W.G. Sebald, N.Y. Times critic pick.

    “What is real? How do you define ‘real’? If you’re talking about what you can feel, what you can smell, what you can taste and see, then ‘real’ is simply electrical signals interpreted by your brain.” – Morpheus, USA Today.

    “…in the case where the self is merely represented and ideally presented (vorgestellt), there is not actual: where it is by proxy, it is not.” – Hegel, Chicago Tribune.

    In rural Nebraska, an unspoken consensus belies rationale, as the rituals of a robed people and their silent strivings lay the groundwork for a misunderstanding of all the health that Granola can promise.
