Fall Tour 2025 Tickets Here! Imagine controlling tech with your mind and watching a Viking ship burst through a flaming amphitheater — no, you're not dreaming. In this episode of The Box of Oddities, Kat and Jethro plug into the brain-bending world of Brain-Computer Interfaces (BCIs), where thought alone can type, move, and maybe even speak. It’s sci-fi made science — Elon wishes. Then, pack your imaginary passport for Puy du Fou. This French amusement park throws out roller coasters in favor of full-blown historical epics with live battles, wolves, and more costume changes than a Vegas revue. Think Renaissance Faire meets Michael Bay. From the cutting edge of neuroscience to the theatrical fever dream of medieval France, it’s a wild ride through human ingenuity, spectacle, and delightful weirdness. Plug in your brain, suspend your disbelief, and prepare to say, “Wait... that’s real?” #WeirdIsWonderful #BCI #PuyDuFou #OdditiesUnleashed #BrainTech #StrangeHistory #PodcastRecommendations #BoxOfOddities 1 Learn more about your ad choices.
