EXTREME BRAINS is a sharp, fast-moving podcast where Sam, David, and James take on the wild, confusing, and often hilarious ways our minds work. Each episode pushes into a different corner of neuroscience, culture, and everyday life. Season 2 picks up right where Season 1 left off and raises the stakes with stories of danger, touched genius, hacked perception, pushed creativity, lived with extreme memory, or tested the limits of what a brain can be. From how we process fear to how we experience time, from the need for connection to the future of consciousness itself, the trio breaks it all down with curiosity, humor, and a touch of chaos.
