The 3 Brain Cells

Sometimes you just need to rant. In this episode, we let our thoughts run wild as we talk about the little annoyances, random observations, and everyday chaos that life throws our way. It’s part vent session, part therapy, and fully unfiltered, because apparently, we had a lot to say.

Help! We’re famous??? Our Lucy Letby episode unexpectedly BLEW UP, and now we’re spiraling (in the best way). Do we start screening calls? Do we hire security? Can we interview her???!!?? The delusion is stronggggggg.After processing our five seconds of fame, we (eventually) pivot to the movie Send Help, where we break down our thoughts, what worked, what didn’t, and of course, go on several completely unrelated tangents along the way.It’s a little fame spiral, a little movie review, and a lot of classic 3 Brain Cells chaos.

This episode was supposed to be about foods everyone else seems to hate… but that we proudly defend. And while we do get to a few controversial favorites, we somehow spend most of the time completely off topic (shocking, we know).Expect strong opinions, questionable taste buds, and at least five tangents that have absolutely nothing to do with food. Basically: come for the hot takes, stay for the chaos.

This week, we’re diving into Netflix’s new documentary about Lucy Letby, and let’s just say… we have thoughts. From the way the story was presented to the questionable creative choices (including AI-generated interview “people”???), we unpack what worked, what absolutely didn’t, and how it shaped the overall narrative. Was it informative? Was it responsible? Or was it just… odd?In true 3 Brain Cells fashion, we break it down, side-eye it, and maybe spiral a little along the way.

This week, we’re breaking down some of the biggest movies coming out this year—based purely on their trailers and vibes alone. From excitement to confusion to immediate side-eye, we share what we’re actually looking forward to, what feels overhyped, and what might be a surprise hit. As usual, we spiral into a few tangents along the way, because apparently that’s just part of the cinematic experience now.

We start exactly how you’d expect: absolutely nowhere. Somehow this episode opens with chaotic chatter and joking about getting sponsored (manifesting, obviously)… and then, in true 3 Brain Cells fashion, takes a sharp turn into real-life conversations about what’s been happening in Minnesota.We talk through recent events involving ICE, how it’s affecting people around us, and the feelings, questions, and concerns it’s stirred up, all while still managing to go off on a few tangents because, well… that’s who we are.It’s a mix of unserious beginnings, serious moments, and honest conversation, with just enough chaos to keep things on brand.

The title says it all. 😐 In “Stranger Disappointments,” we unpack the Stranger Things finale and… yeah, we have thoughts. From our deep frustration with how the Duffer Brothers chose to end the series, to breaking down Conformity Gate, and debating whether El is actually alive or truly gone, this episode is part rant, part therapy session. We loved this show, and that might be why this one hurts so much. If you’re confused, disappointed, or just need to vent with someone who gets it… you’re not alone.

Welcome to Part 1.5… because apparently we’re incapable of staying on track. 😅 This episode was supposed to be a deep dive into other people’s Stranger Things theories, and while we do dissect some wild takes and internet conspiracies, we also take our usual scenic route along the way. Think half analysis, half chaos, and very on-brand tangents. It’s not quite Part 2, but it’s definitely not Part 1, so consider this the messy, unhinged in-between.

This week, we fully spiral into Stranger Things territory. With the four new episodes from Season 5, we break down our wildest theories, predictions, and “wait… hear me out” moments. One thought turns into another, and suddenly we’re two hours deep (oops 😅), but we promise it’s worth the ride. If you love overanalyzing every detail and going full conspiracy mode, this episode is for you.

We’re back!!!!!! After a much-needed little hiatus, we’re jumping right in with some good old-fashioned girl math. You know, the kind of logic that absolutely makes sense… to us. Of course, we can’t stay on topic to save our lives, so expect plenty of tangents, laughs, and chaotic reasoning along the way.

This episode is all about fun questions! The silly, the unexpected, and the oddly deep. We ask each other things that actually help you get to know us better… and maybe learn something about yourself too.

This week, we bring our own random scenarios to the table — and we break them down with open minds and zero judgment. It’s chaotic, it’s unfiltered, and it’s very us.

This week, we’re diving into Dan Da Dan... the chaos, the charm, and why it might just be our new anime obsession 👀 Plus, fall is officially falling, and we’re talking all things cozy: crunchy leaves, comfort shows, pumpkin-flavored everything, and that unbeatable autumn vibe. It’s equal parts anime fangirl energy and fall girl energy, basically, peak 3 Brain Cells season. 🍁✨

This week, we’re fumbling our way through the weirdest rules in football and the chaos that is fantasy football... but of course, we can’t stay on topic for long. Expect plenty of rambles, tangents, and questionable hot takes that may or may not make sense by the end. Basically: football is confusing, and so are we 🏈✨

This week we wade into the murky waters of political silencing (even when we don’t agree with the people involved). After Charlie Kirk’s death, Jimmy Kimmel’s show was suspended, and now we’re asking: where do you draw the line between criticism and censorship? We unpack free speech, media responsibility, and how easily voices get silenced in 2025. As always, expect a few detours—pop culture refs, messy takes, and the kind of chaos that makes you go “mmh, that’s a tough one.”

The end of the world? Yeah, we’re talking about it. From declining birth rates to food shortages to the looming weight of climate change, we dive into the big “what ifs” that could spell disaster for humanity. It’s equal parts unsettling and unhinged, because who better to speculate about the apocalypse than three self-proclaimed brain cells?

This week’s episode is a little all over the place, just the way we like it! From offbeat tangents to totally random conversations, nothing is off the table when the 3 Brain Cells get going. Buckle up, because Granny’s off her rocker and so are we.

In this episode of The 3 Brain Cells, we dive into the unspoken rules of eating out—aka restaurant etiquette. From how not to order, to tipping, to what definitely makes you “that table,” we cover all the dos and don’ts of dining like a decent human. Come hungry, but maybe leave the red flags at home.

In this episode of The 3 Brain Cells, we dive into the twisted minds and chilling stories of history’s most infamous serial killers… but, you know, with our usual chaos and questionable jokes. It’s dark, it’s creepy, and somehow still hilarious because we can’t stay serious for long.

This week, we’re diving deep into Ginny & Georgia Season 3! Specifically, the emotional rollercoaster it takes us on. From anxiety spirals to therapy sessions to generational trauma, we’re unpacking the mental health themes woven throughout the season. Was it handled well? Did it hit too close to home? And why does this show somehow make chaos feel relatable? Come cry, critique, and cope with us.

Welcome to The Chaos Bowl, where logic goes to die and the questions get weird. We’re pulling totally random prompts from our chaos bowl and answering on the spot: What’s our villain origin story? Would we survive a zombie apocalypse? What crime would we commit? It’s unfiltered, unplanned, and unbelievably unhinged. Buckle up! It’s about to get wild, slightly delusional, and deeply unserious.

We’re deep-fried, sugar-coated, and ready to judge. In this episode, we dive into the brand-new foods hitting the Minnesota State Fair this year. We'll be rating everything from “absolutely we’re waiting in line” to “they should be arrested for this.” From the sweet to the spicy to the suspicious, we’re giving our honest takes and deciding what’s worth the money, the calories, and the food baby. Catch us spiraling over pickle everything and deep-fried chaos. 🌽🎡✨

What happens when you give three sleep-deprived sisters microphones and no script? You get the most unhinged game of Would You Rather you've ever heard. In this episode, we throw out the rulebook and make up wild, weird, and slightly concerning “would you rather” questions on the spot. Nothing is off-limits, so prepare for chaos, laughter, and a few scenarios we probably should’ve kept to ourselves.

They say wisdom comes with age… but sometimes it comes wrapped in the most unhinged advice you’ve ever heard. In this episode, we unpack some of the wildest pearls of “wisdom” we’ve gotten from older generations, like “don’t grow old” (um, thanks?) and “never have kids” (yikes). But in true 3 Brain Cells fashion, we somehow end up deep-diving into Gen Alpha slang and wondering if we’re already out of touch.It’s chaotic, it’s honest, and it’s giving… “what are the kids even saying these days?” 👵🧠📱

New name, same chaos.Welcome to The 3 Brain Cells! 🎉 This week, we're continuing our deep dive into relationships, but this time we're skipping past the butterflies and getting real about what comes after “I do.” From navigating marriage and raising tiny humans to surviving retirement and holding hands in the nursing home, we're talking about love that lasts (and sometimes limps).It’s funny, it’s honest, it’s a little emotional. And yes, we still find time for a few unexpected tangents (would it even be us if we didn’t?).

We started in the talking stage... and somehow ended up planning someone’s hypothetical wedding in our notes app. In this week’s episode, we dive headfirst into the beautifully messy pipeline from first dates to full-on engagements with plenty of detours into red flags, unhinged DMs, wedding hot takes, and the occasional emotional spiral.Whether you're single, cuffed, situationshipped, or just here for the tea, grab your drink (or your therapist), because things are about to get wildly unserious.

From the cinnamon challenge to eating Tide Pods (why???), we're diving into the most unhinged internet trends our generation somehow lived through. Join us as we laugh, cringe, and question humanity while recalling the wildest challenges the internet has ever offered—and maybe the ones that were lowkey our intrusive thoughts. Don’t worry, no brain cells were harmed in the making of this episode (we think).

It started with a little Disney slander (as it should). We aired our grievances about the live-action remakes—because why are they like that??—and somehow ended up reimagining them as horror films. Think The Little Mermaid, but actually terrifying. Beauty and the Beast, but the beast stays a beast. Join us as we spiral into chaotic storytelling, wild what-ifs, and laugh way too hard at our own creepy concepts.Grab your mug. It’s storytime… the unhinged edition.

The Crunchyroll Anime Awards came and went, and honestly? We were kind of impressed. In this episode, we dive into the nominees, winners, and all the chaos in between—no rage, just vibes (okay, maybe a little rage). Join us as we reflect on the shows that swept, the moments that made us cry, and why some anime deserve more love than the internet gives them.Grab your mug and come hang out with us—it's anime talk, beyond the ratings.

In this episode, we fully embrace our delusions (a.k.a. dreams) and spill all about the wildest versions of our future selves. From dream homes to fantasy careers to totally unrealistic—but still iconic—goals, we’re laying it all out. It’s chaotic, it’s inspiring, it’s deeply unserious and a little too real. Whether you’re living in reality or just visiting, this one’s for the dreamers. 💭✨P.S. It’s a shorter episode this week—life’s been life-ing and we’re tired, but we still showed up (delusions and all).

In our true fashion, we take a wild ride through the most unexpected tangents yet. What starts as a chat about school quickly spirals into stories of chaotic blood draws, bizarre childhood fears, and our collective obsession with the show Strange Addictions. If you've ever wondered how we can connect cafeteria lunches to people eating drywall, this one’s for you. Buckle up for an episode full of laughs, gasps, and classic sister chaos.

This episode is basically a double feature. First up: we start with popcorn and plot twists—diving into movies that we've seen and are to come. Then, the vibe shifts as we get real about mental health, its struggles, and how life actually feels behind the mic. And just when you think it’s over… we drop a bombshell: is this the beginning of a whole new era for the podcast? Something’s brewing, and trust us—it’s not just tea.

This week, we tried to stay on topic—and shockingly, we almost did. We kick things off with Midwest chaos: weather complaints, and why it's basically impossible to survive summer without a mosquito bite. But naturally, it wouldn’t be us if we didn’t somehow spiral into a passionate anime discussion by the end. From frozen lakes to fiery fight scenes, we cover it all. Grab a hotdish (or just a coffee) and join the randomness! ❄️🍜

What started as a casual convo turned into Jazz’s DNA revelation—and let's just say, none of us were ready. From surprise ancestry results to dramatic family reactions, we spiral into a full-blown genealogy gossip session. And just when things start to calm down… BAM, somehow we’re talking about Marvel characters and their own identity crises.This episode is part mystery, part therapy, and 100% off-topic. You’ve been warned.

In this episode, we spiral—in the best way possible. We’re diving headfirst into our hyperfixations: the random obsessions that consume our thoughts, time, and sometimes our wallets. From niche hobbies to oddly specific interests that took over our lives for way too long, we’re unpacking what it means to go all in... until we suddenly don’t. If you’ve ever stayed up 'til 3am researching something wildly unnecessary, this one's for you.

In this episode, we’re embracing our inner know-it-alls and dishing out all the unsolicited parenting advice you never knew you needed (or asked for).

We’ve had enough—and we’re calling it out. From people who ruin book spines to the audacity of losing an hour of sleep (seriously, why?), this episode is a fiery round of rants and red flags.

We’re talking pet peeves, unpopular opinions, and all the things that make us say, “Yeah… that’s a no for me.” 🔥🚫

Buckle up, because this episode is all over the place! In Detours Ahead, we had no plan—just vibes, chaos, and whatever popped into our heads.

Buckle up, because we’re letting the conversation take the wheel (and Siri might need a break after this one).

Being biracial is a rollercoaster—one minute, you’re “so exotic,” and the next, someone’s trying to guess your ethnicity like it’s a game show. In this episode, we dive into the struggles of living in the racial in-between, from never quite fitting in to dealing with the What Are You? interrogation. We’re talking identity crises, hair struggles, and all the awkward, hilarious, and frustrating moments that come with being “ambiguously ethnic.” Buckle up—this one’s a mix of laughs, rants, and a little existential dread.

Some things are just not worth the hype—yes, we said it. In this episode, we’re calling out the most overrated things in life, from luxury brands that ain’t so luxurious to Taylor Swift (sorry, Swifties).

It’s heartfelt, a bit chaotic, and totally us.

We’re back and ready to pick up where we left off (with fewer tangents this time... maybe).

From personal stories to practical tips, this episode is all about opening up and holding space for the conversation we all need. It’s real, it’s raw, and yes, it’s still a little chaotic—because what else would you expect?
