    Default “Galaxy Brain”

    Is this a Canadian expression? I’ve listened to A LOT of hockey podcasts over the last couple weeks and I keep hearing this expression. My wife has never heard of it and I can’t recall hearing it in other contexts other than hockey discussions.

    I listen to a lot of hockey podcasts myself and I don't know if I have ever heard anyone use it before. This is probably the first I am hearing/reading about it.

    PDO is the only one from that group that I can say I listen to with any consistency. I'll have to pay more attention I guess LOL!

    It’s a meme, it’s like 10 years old, and it has no specific affiliation to a specific topic or country. It is universally and commonly used everywhere.
