Hi, I’m Mike — I run this channel.
I started Brain Snacks to explore big questions and complex topics, and to try explaining them in plain English. I’m not an expert in any of these subjects — just a curious person trying to make sense of the world.
Instead of diving super deep, we keep things high level and accessible. No jargon. Just a clean overview of how things work, with a bit of history, a touch of technical insight, and a look at the economic, social, and future implications of whatever we’re talking about.
This is my curiosity journey — and you’re welcome to come along.

We flip a switch and the lights come on — but behind that moment is one of the most complex systems in the world. In this episode, we break down how the electric grid actually works, from generation and transmission to the growing demand for smarter, cleaner energy. Deregulated markets, aging infrastructure, rising electrification — it’s all part of the story.
