Chew on this—your daily dose of the wild, the weird, and the profitable.

March 29, 2025

Conspiracy theorists waiting for JFK Jr. in Dallas, crypto traders betting on AI-powered meme coins, and gamers eyeing Ubisoft’s billion-dollar moves—today’s Brain Stew is bubbling over with the bizarre, the bullish, and the bold.

We’ve got a podcast crew breaking down QAnon’s latest spectacle, the FDIC quietly shifting its crypto stance, and why poolside passion isn’t as steamy as TV makes it seem. Meanwhile, Porsche’s 2025 event lineup is stacked, and UFC London may have fizzled, but British MMA is still on fire.

From financial flips to fringe theories, today’s stew is rich, weird, and just the right amount of unhinged. Dig in, or don’t—we’re still cooking either way.
