Curious AF
Hosted by Luke Biermann, Curious AF is a podcast for the endlessly inquisitive. What started as a deep dive into the grit behind hard things like building businesses and running ultra marathons has evolved into a broader exploration of life’s most fascinating questions and experiences. From endurance and entrepreneurship to psychedelics, parenting, spirituality, and everything in between, Curious AF is a space to follow curiosity wherever it leads.
Each episode features candid conversations with people who inspire, challenge, and stretch our understanding of adventurers, thinkers, leaders, artists, and everyday outliers living life with intention. If it’s interesting, we’re into it.
