There is a theory known as "morphic resonance" which suggests that events and objects exist in the world as something analogous to radio waves. So when you "recall" a memory it is not because it is stored in the brain anywhere but rather you are picking up signals from the universe like a radio receiver.

Ahhh, ok. Magic, gotcha. :D

Always amazes me when people want to replace a simple explanation with magic.

That theory sounds woo-woo. So something I remember that happened a few days ago, or my phone number exists somewhere out in the universe and our brain is able to access it?

Yes sort of like Platonic Forms and ideas. Where do your ideas exist? Can you isolate it to a part of the brain?
