Vic's Workshop

After building my own Soundbooth a few years ago and subsequently learning that Vic was selling his own woodworking creations, I just had to go in-depth with Vic about Woodworking...what it means to be one and what tools can make it so much easier.

A podcast explaining what's behind the modern life

01/03/2014

@joaoalm

It's highly technical show sometimes, but the conversation is so passionate that it's easy to follow. Don't be fooled by the category of the podcast, it covers much more than gadgets: from the electricity grid and energy sources to the value of an academic diploma in the age of google. You'll definitely learn a lot, you won't regret giving it a try.
How things are thought and made to work

Great podcast for anyone who wants to know how the things around us are made to work. The presenters are knowledgeable on what they are talking about. This show reminds of Siracusa’s “Hypercritical” but about technology and engineering.
