Everything Why with Michael Martin
Everything Why with Michael Martin
Podcast Description
Welcome to Everything Why, I’m your host Mike Martin. This is a podcast about the journey of an inventor and disruptor. I invent to because it gives me purpose and I disrupt because it’s important to question the status quo—not to create chaos.
During this podcast series, we’ll unravel the 'whys' behind our actions—why we laugh, cry, work, do good, or sometimes stumble into darker paths. We’ll talk with fellow inventors and experts, along with people who have been a part of my life, both personal and professional.
Join me as we uncover the essence behind every aspect of life, because in everything, there's a 'why' waiting to be explored. personal Substack michael343.substack.com

What if I told you that fire led to glass, glass led to lenses, and lenses opened up entire worlds through microscopes and telescopes? Join me as I sit down with Dylan Thuras, co-founder of Atlas Obscura, and Jennifer Swanson, author of 50+ STEM books for kids, to explore their incredible new guide to the world’s most fascinating inventions.
We dive deep into how innovation really works – not isolated “eureka moments” by lone geniuses, but interconnected discoveries building on each other across centuries. From ancient caves in South Africa to glass bridges in China, from accidental discoveries to the ongoing electrical revolution, this conversation will change how you see the world around you.
Whether you’re a curious parent, an aspiring inventor, or someone who believes the world should be one amazing ride of discovery, this episode is packed with wonder, wisdom, and that infectious enthusiasm that makes learning feel like an adventure.
