Episode Synopsis

Today on the show, we’re joined by Noland Arbaugh — the first publicly known human to receive Neuralink’s brain-computer interface implant. After a diving accident left him paralyzed from the shoulders down, Noland volunteered for one of the most experimental technologies of our time. Now, he can control digital devices with his mind. We’ll explore the procedure, how the tech works, its ethical implications, and how merging with a machine is reshaping his view of identity, ability, consciousness, and human potential. This is a conversation about risk, resilience, and the future of the mind. Join us as we get rebelliously curious.
