Mechanical keyboard discussion between PCB designer That-Canadian (Chris), GeeWhiz (Josh) of SpaceCat Design, and Bakingpy (Danny) of Keebio. Listen to us talk about keyboard-related stuff and other random topics, along with guests from the keyboard community. Maybe we'll touch a tiny bit of news and project updates, but it's mainly just us hanging out and having a good time.

2020-12-29 - Last Episode of the Year
Another Josh-less episode! Chris and Danny are here to squeeze in one final episode before the end of the year and talk a bit about plans for the upcoming year. Obligatory chat about the Elite-C included of course. Check out the video version of this episode on YouTube if you want to checkout the new Keebio office.

07/08/20 - Danny and Chris - New episode in a long time
Danny and Chris finally got together to do a real episode, as opposed to a more Twitch stream-centric one. Talked about your usual stuff, Elite-C, keyboards, unicycles, theories on who registered elite-c.com, bouillabaisse, etc.

04/22/20 - Mr. & Mrs. SpaceCat & Germ! Quaran-DEAN Edition!
It's been a while, and this is actually a few weeks old so if there is content that makes no sense--whoops.
We've been trying to get some content out while locked-down and staying healthy, so stick with us for OG3 coming soon.
This is the first episode where Mrs. SpaceCat has joined the fray, along with the one and only--Germ. Yes, he talks about the magnets.
We're all over the place with this and none of us were able to use good audio setups, so the quality is not that great. Again, stick with us and we'll get back on a better schedule once things...calm down...I guess?
Anyhow, this is the first podcast of a double-header. Next one will be uploaded shortly. ENJOY! -
04/15/20 - Danny Hangs Out With Himself
Just Danny for this episode, so it basically became the Keebio shillzone. Did a run through the Keebio status board on Trello, and gave updates for everything on there. Also covered what the deal is with Choc stabilizers and the research involved with figuring out the correct dimensions for stab cutouts. Elite-Cs were restocked live, and Danny showed off how he uses a restock notification app to gauge interest in various items. A lot of stuff was shown and explained on the Twitch stream, so it might be better to check that out to see what was going on.

03/26/20 - Danny & Germ actually talk about keyboards
Danny finally makes an appearance after a 2-month long disappearance, and after failing to get Twitch going due to bad internet once again, he fired up an audio recording through Discord. A brief bit of COVID-19 talk, but mostly keyboard talk this time (sorry) and also some conversion van stuff.

03/04/20 - Inb4 Global Pandemic (ft. hineybush)
So, the whole pandemic snuck up on us and this episode took a bit to get out. Our bad, but considering the reason--we aren't that sorry. Ha!
Hineybush joins us this week for a chat about all things keebs and everything else under the kitchen sink.
Scheduling podcast going forward with different containment and quarantines going on may prove to be difficult, but we will have OTC content coming out one way or another. We don't want to go nuts and we don't want our listeners going nuts being stuck in the house for 2+ weeks!
Stay tuned and join our Discord for the latest information there. Twitch streams are coming!
Be safe. Wash your hands. Stay home.
Take care of each other.
Customer Reviews
Great entrance point into MK community
Hosts have good chemistry. All the guests have been great. The podcast helps give names and identities to the various vendors and designers. Overall an entertaining and informative podcast.
Best keyboard show/stream whatever
Nearly all keyboard related streams and podcasts are exclusively consumer focused. Sometimes it gets exhausting to just listen to someone talk about what they’re going to buy or reviewing keyboards for hours on end.
OTC is a refreshing departure from that. PCB design, shop talk, and maybe a little bit of shilling (buy an elite-c), it’s all there and always entertaining.
If you want a keyboard stream coming from a different perspective than what you typically get, this is the podcast for you. These are people actually making and doing things for the community and not just talking about it.
Dope show. Would bang forever.
