  • Why Facts Lose to Belief 🧠 | The Neuroscience of Conviction
    Jan 26 2026

    Why do intelligent people cling to beliefs even when facts collapse beneath them? 🧱
    In this episode, we dive into cognitive neuroscience to uncover why belief isn’t just an opinion—it’s biological infrastructure.

    From belief as a social technology that enabled large-scale human cooperation, to the brain’s credition circuitry and psychological immune system, we explore why conviction forms before logic ever arrives. You’ll learn how dopamine loops, belief bias, and precision-weighted prediction errors turn repetition into “truth,” and why logic so often loses the fight.

    We’ll also examine how belief physically reshapes the body through placebo and active inference—and what this means in the age of AI, social media, and virtual reality.

    Belief isn’t about accuracy. It’s about survival.
    Understanding that may be the only way to bridge the divide between us and them.

  • When Chaos Makes Stronger Metal 🚀 | The Rise of High-Entropy Alloys
    Jan 25 2026

    Mixing five metals should make a mess.
    Instead, it’s changing the future.

    High-Entropy Alloys are rewriting the rules of materials science — producing metals that grow tougher in the cold, stronger under stress, and smarter through AI-driven design.

    In this episode, we explore how scientists are designing materials atom by atom, why entropy is no longer the enemy, and how artificial intelligence is helping us discover alloys that humans never could.

    The age of trial-and-error metallurgy is ending.
    The age of designed matter has begun.

  • How to Live Longer According to Modern Science?
    Jan 24 2026

    Old age was supposed to be irreversible. Science just disagreed.
    From gene therapies that rewind cellular memory to drugs that silence “inflammaging,” this episode unpacks the most disruptive discoveries in longevity science. We explore why weight loss isn’t the same as metabolic health, how rapamycin cleans up aging cells, and why exercise still beats every pill we’ve invented.
    A clear, accessible tour of how close we are to treating aging itself.
