One Hour, One Brain Cell

Today on the show, we're boldly going where no podcast has gone before - home from the grocery store, where Richie attempts to consume an entire box of cookies over the course of the episode. Plus, we've each got a concert to recap along with a few new Tracks of the Week, and some headlines you might've missed while you were doomscrolling or avoiding April Fool's Day "news&quo...

Fear not, dear listeners: we've returned from our brief employment-related hiatus. In exchange, we offer you one hour of unsolicited nonsense, as always. We're talking summer festival plans (#T8cago), airport drama and exceedingly long bus rides, Hacks season 5 (!) and more. Plus, Richie's Letterboxd corner features a few of the latest releases, including Project Hail Mary and Underton...

Jordan almost ran out of ideas on what to title this week's episode. Luckily, a new album from Harry Styles is here to save the day. And while we won't be getting tickets to his 30-night stay at Madison Square Garden, we can still enjoy the vibes from the comfort of our own apartments - just like you can do with the latest episode of our show! So sit back and relax, or sit forward and be t...

On this week's show, we start planning for the afterlife - which is to say, we're deciding which songs we want played on a speaker alongside our remains so people can get the best idea of who we were in life. (Lives, of course, which were not as influential as the release of unrelated Belgian techno anthem, Pump Up The Jam.) So grab your boomboxes and make sure your Bluetooth is connected...

We're back, with lots to discuss on the heels of a week where Jordan worked One Billion Hours of Overtime and Richie had the privilege of joining 30,000 people in chanting "Josh Dun Is My Dad". Plus, we're celebrating a New York City snow day and medal-winning achievements from some of the women of Team USA. Safe to say, we've got a lot to talk about on this edition of the On...

We're here to weigh in on the most divisive topic of the week on the internet: should Bad Bunny's halftime show have been longer? We didn't quite complete a full card on our "Benito Bingo" boards. Plus, we recap an exciting week of Olympic curling, women's hockey, and collective girlhood with Chappell Roan's new Fortnite skin. All this and more, on the latest episode...

Our description for this week is mostly just “thank you” - except if you’re the groundhog in charge of the weather. In that case, we have some choice swear words for you, and some recently discounted spices for seasoning meat. We’re celebrating our 100th episode on this edition of the One Hour, One Brain Cell podcast! Because the world needed another podcast, follow us:Instagram: https://www.insta...

Because Ticketmaster has turned into "Queue All The Time. Tickets, Occasionally." you won't be seeing us during Harry Styles' 30 nights at Madison Square Garden. You will, however, be seeing Jordan try to excavate her car from the aftermath of this snow storm until approximately March. Get your hand warmers and shovels ready - it's a special "snowed in" edition of t...

Much like the pointed lesson Ray Stantz learns in Ghostbusters (1984), when someone asks you if you want a ticket to the National Championship game, you say yes. It might just get you a free concert with Pitbull, 20,000 new best friends, and the chance to witness the most improbable spectacle in college football history. All this and more, live from the 305, on this week's episode of the One H...

We understand, rationally, how a microwave works. But is anyone else just a little suspicious of how fast those things can cook our dinosaur nuggets compared to a regular oven? One thing's for sure: our brains are fried, and the fries are delicious here on the 97th running of the One Hour, One Brain Cell podcast.

We might not have eradicated world hunger this past year, but we did spend 17 days' worth of time watching movies and 313 days streaming So Close To What. We probably should've spent 365 days touching grass. Tune in to this week's episode to help Richard with a dilemma, find out the objective usefulness of a grocery list, and see what craftsperson's creation arrived at Jordan's...

Happy New Year, Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah, Boxing Day, Omisoka, Kwanzaa, and of course Letterboxd Year in Film Day to all who celebrate! (We missed wishing you all of these things, but don't worry, there's a card in the mail. There's no cash in it, though.) We know you wanted one more gift, so we're here to fill that empty space in your heart and under your tree with the late...

Another year older, and not a lick wiser. Par for the course for us, really. And if you’ve made it this far along with us, you should know that too. We won’t waste your time with a description this week - it’s part one of our Best of 2025, and some extra goodies, this week on the One Hour, One Brain Cell podcast.

We are getting to closer to our EPIC* 100th episode by continuing our shenanigans for the 93rd time. From the end of cinema to the deep lore that is the New Jersey Devils' "mummy curse", and a celebration in honor of the Big Ten Champion Indiana Hoosiers, it's another rabble rousing episode that Richie won't let Jordan put an end to (again). The latest serving of the show is...

Richie wrote the description this week, so please excuse his grammar. This week, we make the film bros mad, debate trophies, recap the #QatarGP and look ahead to Abu Dhabi and the possibility of a fifth world title for Max Verstappen. We wrap with Richie's latest purchase (capitalism).Because the world needed another podcast, follow us: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ohobcpod/ X: https:/...

Have you ever wanted to commit to a long-term, low-reward cooking project that will require you to sacrifice several hours of your life in 30-minute increments? If so, we'd recommend Caramelizing Onions in a Crock Pot! Not only will it take much longer than you could ever anticipate, but it will also require you to slice a quantity of onions never before seen outside of a commercial kitchen! U...

1775, the colony of Massachusetts: Paul Revere participates in a now-famous "midnight ride" to warn American minutemen that British troops were advancing on their position. 2025, the Internet: Paul Revere participates in a now-famous meme to represent telling your friends breaking pop culture news they might not have otherwise known about. Regardless of what the latest news story you bro...

Since our last episode, the clocks moved back an hour - which means you gained enough time to listen to our show for free. That's basically cosmic girl math. Tune in as we explore our newest side hustle as wedding DJs, the karmic consequences of eating tuna fish on a commercial airplane, and a concerning number of movies consumed between our hosts - and more. It's the latest serving of the...

Halloween is upon us, and that means it's time for a special new episode of the show. We've got plenty of fright-filled movies to break down, along with our favorite treats to mark the occasion, and some new tracks that are making a scary good impact on our playlists lately. All this and more, on the latest edition of the One Hour, One Brain Cell podcast. Because the world needed another p...

Whoever is running the marketing campaign for "Now You See Me" 3 has really gone above and beyond with this Louvre heist. At least, that's what the latest conspiracy theory on the internet believes. Whether you're waiting to see if Jesse Eisenberg really did pilfer the crown jewels, wanting to ponder life's most existential questions, or wondering what song we would walk to f...

Turns out the Eagles were right all along in 1977 - you can check out from our show any time you like, but we can literally never leave. On this 86th edition of the podcast, your hosts have returned fresh from a trip to the California sunshine, ready to fight back a seasonal vitamin D deficiency for at least one more week. Jordan's time spent on a commercial airline yielded positive returns on...

We've only been around for 85 episodes, but we've been fortunate enough to see two Taylor Swift release weeks happen in that time. Join us as we break down everything "The Life of a Showgirl", break out a diss track for the ages on "TIT FOR TAT", and literally break down about trying to secure tickets for SDCC 2026. So double check the spelling on your legal documents a...

Live from our reporters in the field, we're bringing you all the latest on #Rapture2025 as it happens. As a reminder to all hopeful travelers, low-hanging ceilings can and will interrupt your journey to the great beyond. We remind you to stay outside, and touch grass while you still can. In the meantime, tune in for Jordan's recap of opening night in Cincinnati of The Clancy Tour: Breach,...

This year's Emmy Awards was going to go one of two ways - we were going to be thrilled and *so* correct, or we were going to launch a tray of lukewarm branzino into the audience. Thankfully for all of the voters, we got what we were hoping for. Tune in this week for all of the winners, losers, and vindication about our Emmy predictions, as well as Richie's latest concert ventures and the i...

If you're reading this, Richie is out of password attempts and can only communicate through the description section of our YouTube channel. While he waits to log back in, we'll fill you in on all the happenings this week including the 2025 #VMAs , the #MonzaGP , and how we fared in our first week of fantasy football. (Spoiler alert, Jordan might know ball.) So hit pause on your 97th viewin...
