Intellectually Curious is a podcast by Mike Breault featuring over 1,600 AI-powered explorations across science, mathematics, philosophy, and personal growth. Each short-form episode is generated, refined, and published with the help of large language models—turning curiosity into an ongoing audio encyclopedia. Designed for anyone who loves learning, it offers quick dives into everything from combinatorics and cryptography to systems thinking and psychology.

Inspiration for this podcast:

"Muad'Dib learned rapidly because his first training was in how to learn. And the first lesson of all was the basic trust that he could learn. It's shocking to find how many people do not believe they can learn, and how many more believe learning to be difficult. Muad'Dib knew that every experience carries its lesson."

Frank Herbert, Dune

  • The EMI Whisper: Listening for Hidden Faults in High-Voltage Equipment
    Jan 15 2026

    Join us as we dive into electromagnetic interference monitoring, a non-intrusive way to detect partial discharge long before heat or vibration give it away. We'll explain how nanosecond RF emissions from tiny voids in insulation create repeatable signatures detectable by HFCT sensors, and how phase-aligned patterns separate signal from noise. We'll show the economic case for early detection—saving outages and millions—and how data fusion with thermal and vibration data delivers precise condition-based maintenance.

  • Mirror Neurons: The Brain's Instant Replay of Others’ Actions
    Jan 15 2026

    We trace the accidental discovery of mirror neurons by Rizzolatti and Gallese, explain how these cells fire both when you act and when you observe the same action, and explore how this “neural rehearsal” supports understanding intention and empathy. From the inferior frontal and parietal areas to Broca’s area and the somatosensory cortex, we discuss how humans turn observation into shared reality, revisit classic grasp-to-eat versus grasp-to-place experiments, and consider provocative ideas about language and self-awareness, including Ramachandran’s introspection hypothesis.

  • The Snail That Rebuilt Its Eye: Secrets of Regeneration
    Jan 15 2026

    We dive into groundbreaking findings from the Stowers Institute showing Pomacea canaliculata, the golden apple snail, can regrow a complete camera-type eye in about four weeks. Learn how blastema formation, Pax6, and a vertebrate-like genetic toolkit enable this regeneration, why humans scar instead, and what these insights could mean for restoring human vision, retinal organoids, and optic nerve repair. We also discuss how mapping complex regenerative networks with data—and AI tools—could guide future therapies.
