The Anyway Pod
by Ali and Cassie
Our brains are weird, am I right? We have 6,000 thoughts a day and some of them are just downright odd. But what if you weren't the only person having those weird thoughts? What if there were other people who shared in the random thought bubbles that pop into your head all day. Well, we do. We also experience that weirdness and, in fact, we would like to discuss those thoughts out loud. Join us as we talk about the mundane and the extraordinary things that pop into our heads...and yours. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
