This week, we’re knackered – we’re documenting it in real time, and we're trying to hack our brains into thinking we're not actually tired. Is that a thing?


Well, it's based on absolutely zero scientific evidence except our own self-inflicted guinea pig trials. So let's see.


Armed with a week’s worth of voice notes, J and Tim set out to fake energy until we feel it for real… but what we uncovered was something deeper.


Why do our brains feel wired at 3am when we’re already maxed out? Why does stillness send us into shutdown? And what is tiredness actually trying to tell us?


This one’s part experiment, part confession, part existential yawn.


Let’s learn the language of fatigue together.
