The Blackwood Files

If you're reading this, then you already know my name is Steve Blackwood.

What you probably don't know is that I'm also the researcher, the writer, the editor, the storyteller, and the person who hit "publish." Yeah — it's just me.

I'm an introvert. I live a lot in my own head. And in real life, there aren't many people I can sit with and casually talk about curiosity, ideas, strange connections, or the kind of thoughts that don't fit neatly into small talk.

I think a lot about the universe.
History.
Unsolved mysteries.
Human psychology.
Science.
Technology.
Systems.
Trends.
Human consciousness.
Mythology.

And a lot more things that usually make people zone out halfway through the sentence.

Most of the time, if you try to talk about topics like these, you either get ignored… or people get bored… or they quietly decide you're a nerd. Which is funny, because I don't even have a "nerdy" personality.

Not everyone is interested in these subjects — and that's completely fair. I don't want to bore anyone. Maybe I overthink this. Okay, I definitely overthink this. But it is what it is.

What I do know is that somewhere in this massive virtual world, there are people who actually enjoy thinking deeply, questioning things, connecting dots, and exploring ideas just for the sake of curiosity.

This podcast exists for those people.

I started The Blackwood Files to connect with minds like that. To share my thoughts. My opinions. My questions. And yes — to turn them into stories. Because storytelling is how I make sense of the chaos.

I'm just starting out, and I'm probably an amateur podcaster. (Honestly, I can't even say for sure — I haven't really listened to many podcasts myself.)

So if you ever have feedback, thoughts, or opinions, feel free to share them at steveblackwood2026@gmail.com . And if you enjoy the show… you already know how love works in the podcasting world.

And no — I'm not trying too hard to sound cool while writing this.
At least… I don't think I am.
