What makes a mind brilliant… yet different?

This is The Curious Mind of Hercule Poirot — a podcast exploring the world’s most famous Belgian detective and what he can teach us about neurodiversity, detail, and devotion.

Hercule Poirot, the creation of Agatha Christie, is renowned for his meticulous routines, his passion for order, and his unparalleled ability to observe. But what if these very traits — his precision, his focus, his need for structure — reveal something deeper about the way some minds are beautifully designed to see the world?

Across the episodes, we will explore defining characteristics often found on the autism spectrum, such as attention to detail, hyperfocus, logical thinking and routine through the lens of Poirot’s greatest cases.

So, pour yourself a cup of coffee, take a seat beside the world’s tidiest detective, and join me for The Curious Mind of Hercule Poirot.
