This week, Alice is completely MIA mentally because all she can think about is Digimon Time Stranger. Digimon this, digimon that, you’d think she was paid per word use. 👀
So we give our review of DIGIMON Time Stranger, and discuss Pokémon’s bleak future ahead. Is Digimon the better franchise or do we just have the biggest nostalgia glasses on?
Anthony then drops HUGE news, in fact the biggest news we’ve ever dropped before. What is it? Guess you’ll have to listen to find out - Join us this week as we journey through the digital world!

This week on the One Brain Cell Podcast, we break down all the Nintendo goodness that dropped from September’s Nintendo Direct. Friends, (we’re all friends here, right?😎) so much money is going to be spent before 2025 is over.
But first, we didn’t get enough Fashion Faux-pas from the MMVA’s so we drag the Emmy’s red carpet looks, for funsies. 💅🏻
From glam to fangirl, in the Nintendo Direct we got new Virtual Boy peripherals, we got a Fatal Frame 2 remake, we got a new Animal Crossing Pokemon Sim, and even more Pokemon, with DLC announced for the Pokemon game that hasn’t even come out yet, Pokemon Legends ZA. (Did I say Pokemon enough for the SEO gods?)
Speaking of Pokemon, they’re giving us whiplash, why are they charging us so much money and locking Mega’s behind paywalls?
We answer all that and more on this fan-fueled episode of the One Brain Cell podcast! Tune in, comment and rate us 5 stars because this is our 30th episode and we deserve it 💕

We’re fired up this week on the One Brain Cell Podcast 🔥
First up: the 2025 MTV VMA red carpet! Who understood the assignment and who needs to fire their stylists? We're giving our unfiltered opinions on the boldest looks, weirdest trends, and best-dressed surprises.
Then we take a 180 turn into anime town with a review of all the current Demon Slayer arcs. What’s happening in the new Infinity Castle movie? Is the animation still holding up? How does the CGI stack up? Mappa vs UFOTABLE who wins? 👀
And finally: what the actual f@#! is Nintendo thinking? We’re diving into the ACTUAL REAL patent they just filed and how it can affect turn-based combat games in the future.
We’re losing it this episode, so grab your tea, grab your security blanket, and hold on tight as we drive directly into your ear holes with our nonsense.

Buffy the Vampire Slayer is officially back, just in time for spooky season to start!
In this episode, we dive deep into the Buffy revival series directed by Chloe Zhao, featuring a 25-year time jump and major hype for fans of the OG slayer. What does this mean for Buffy and friends? We’ve got thoughts, not good ones, but speak them aloud anyway.
Next up, G Fuel shutting down?! Well… not exactly. We break down the marketing campaign that had the internet confused as all hell and honestly less excited for chalky caffeine supplements.
And last but not least: Angela, of Asgard - The mother we were all waiting for. We react to the newest edition to the Marvel Rivals roster, the Asgardian warrior, the flying muscle mommy!
🧛♀️ Vampires, 💥 fake shutdowns, and ⚔️ sword-wielding goddesses? Just another episode of the One Brain Cell Podcast - get excited!

Is Marvel falling apart at the seams or is this just the best PR stunt of the year? This week, we dive deep into the alleged Avengers drama between Ryan Reynolds (Deadpool) and Robert Downey Jr. (Iron Man). TikTok is eating up this drama, with theories that Ryan is controlling the narrative… but let’s be honest: RDJ doesn’t exactly seem like someone who takes orders. 👀
Then, over in the gaming industry, Riot Games dropped a new League of Legends trailer hyping up a K-pop-inspired Demon Hunter concept but used AI to make it... then quietly deleted it? We talk about how the trailer mysteriously vanished from their official channels and why fan trust is on the decline across the multiverse.
All that, plus:

Welcome back to the One Brain Cell podcast!
This week, we’re breaking down the biggest Gamescom 2025 announcements — and by “biggest,” we mean Resident Evil 9, because let's be real, that was the only trailer that mattered. Didn’t know Gamescom was happening? Neither did we, and yet here we are, pretending to be informed.
In more important news, Mega Victreebel is real and we’re grossed out. We react to the newest Mega Evolution reveal for Pokémon Legends Z-A, and take a walk down memory lane with a chaotic tier list of Pokémon battle gimmicks — from Z-Moves to Terastallization to whatever Dynamax was trying to be.
Drop your hot takes in the comments — or come yell at us live at Fan Expo Toronto this weekend. Especially if you have a vendetta against Mega Gardevoir. We’ll be there, full of opinions and overcaffeinated. See you there besties!

This week on the One Brain Cell Podcast, we’re firing on maybe half a brain cell as Anthony dives into the cinematic trainwreck that is War of the Worlds 2025. He explains the plot to Alice, who wisely didn’t waste her time watching it. 😅 (skip between 20:06 - 37:16 if you don't want to be spoiled~)
Anthony also drops a mini non-spoiler review of the new thriller WEAPONS—because apparently he lives at the movie theater now.
And finally, we scream into the void about Matt Rife being the new face of E.l.f. Cosmetics. Why? How? Who asked for this? Alice is spiraling. Bad comedian, worse choice for makeup marketing. Make it make sense, E.l.f. 🤬
🎧 Tune in for unfiltered opinions, cinematic slander, and beauty brand betrayals that even Judge Beauty can’t sentence.

AI is officially doing wayyyy too much and we’re not here for it.
In this episode, we vent about how artificial intelligence is creeping into every corner of life, from Michael’s rolling out AI-generated Halloween home decor to TikTok feeds overflowing with women role-playing Reddit stories like they lived them. (Spoiler: they didn’t.) It’s giving uncanny valley, it’s giving try-hard, and honestly? It’s giving us the ick.
We’re talking fake emotions, fake interiors, and how your favorite craft store might be gaslighting your living room with pixel-generated art.

In this episode, we share our experience at the Fergus Renaissance Faire in Ontario, Canada! It was a magical weekend filled with incredible cosplay, delicious festival food, and one of the cutest towns we've ever visited. Fergus is a hidden gem, and The Vault Coffee & Espresso Bar alone is worth the trip.
Then we break down the highlights from the Nintendo Partner Showcase, including major reactions to the new Hyrule Warriors reveal, a first look at the relaxing indie game Chillin’ By The Fire, and a discussion about retro-style games mixing 8-bit, 2D, and 3D graphics.
We wrap things up with a deep dive into the controversy around the new Pokémon Pocket TCG set. We cover the alleged stolen artwork, why some card designs were removed from the app, and ask the big question, who’s actually responsible?

This week, we dive deep into two very different but equally important corners of the internet: the latest Pokémon Presents and the ongoing drama surrounding Ironmouse and her talent agency, VShojo.
First up, Alice actually started playing Expedition 33 and she fangirls over Charlie Cox for at least 5 minutes, you’ve been warned!
We then break down all the announcements from the newest Pokémon Presents! From new exciting Pokemon Legends ZA reveals to questionable design choices and missed opportunities. Is the franchise still innovating, or just rehashing old ideas with a new coat of paint? We don’t hold back.
Then, we shift gears and talk about Ironmouse, one of the most prominent VTubers in the scene, and her increasingly complicated relationship with her talent agency VShojo. Recent developments have raised questions about talent management, withholding funds and the future of content creation in a world where corporate partnerships are becoming toxic. What’s really going on behind the scenes? And what does it mean for VTubers both big and small?

When NetEase says jump, we ask “How High?”. At this point, this is the official unofficial Marvel Rivals podcast. We need to be forcibly removed from our computers to stop talking about Marvel Rivals. If we were kidnapped, we would ask our kidnappers to play Rivals with us. Actually if we were kidnapped, they would send us back when they saw our rank…
We’re back at it again this week, yelling into your earholes about how the Summer Skins in Rivals are risque, maybe even too risque! We talk about our Upla Stouffville experience, and if you’re from Stouffville Ontario, tell us in the comments and reviews that we pronounced it wrong and you hate us 😉
Anth gives us his spoiler-free Superman review and Alice complains about how everything is expensive, including ridiculous Canadian shipping costs from EB Games.

This episode is a doozy. We’re back at it again this week with massive amounts of existential dread, AND you guessed it, Marvel Rivals.
We talk about how expensive it is to live in Toronto and exist in general. How buying a house is out of the realm of possibility for gen z and even millennials, and even when you are able to buy a house the bills seem to pile up even more. (Damned if you do, and damned if you don’t!)
Then we decide that instead of buying homes, we’re just going to spend our money on Marvel Rivals skins instead. The new Summer Skins are on their way and we need them all…
Tune in as we explore the depths of sadness together…

This week, Alice is in possession of the podcast’s one and only brain cell and valiantly attempts to explain the Stop Killing Games movement garnering attention across the gaming space. We break down the online petition in the EU, the digital rights chaos behind it, and of course, the inevitable YouTube Drama™ because nothing is real until someone posts a 40-minute video essay with dramatic background music.
Then, we descend into a full-blown obsession with KPOP Demon Hunters. If you haven’t watched this glitter-drenched fever dream of a movie yet... What are you even doing?? The soundtrack slaps, the animation is chef’s kiss, and the men? Whew. Spicy. We're giving it a solid 100/10 and declaring it the official Hot Demon Summer anthem.
And finally, we tried indoor rock climbing for the first time. Our arms are noodles, our dignity is gone, and wow-aging is real. Come for the digital rights, stay for the chaotic life updates. Also, if you're in the EU: go sign the StopKillingGames.com petition before July 31st! They need as much support as they can get - and check out the website to learn way more than our one brain cell could explain.
