My fave podcast

Love Dave and Chris been a fan since the early days love all the in depth talks on all thing engineering. As an engineer I can’t recommend it enough. Unfortunately my wife is not a fan after being forced to listen to Dave’s voice in the car every time.

Keeping Current

Chris keeps it cool while Dave flys off the handle. If they weren't seaparated by 15,000 miles you'd think they were married!
