This week on Blurry Hysteria, we dive into two stories that are equal parts science, sweat, and straight-up strange.
First up: What if your next computer wasn’t silicon but flesh? That’s right—British scientists have created a "living" brain chip made of human neurons, and now you can rent it like it’s a haunted Airbnb. Is it the future of computing or the first step toward Skynet with skin?
Then, we travel from the uncanny valley to the swampy undercarriage of airport security. The TSA is sounding the alarm—literally—thanks to a little-known phenomenon known as “swamp crotch.” Turns out excessive groin sweat might be your ticket to a full pat-down. Moisture and metal detectors don’t mix, folks.
From meat-based microchips to moisture-based misfires, join us for a perfectly weird cocktail of cutting-edge tech and humid horror stories.
Listen now before your pants set off national security protocols.
