  • Why so many Eric’s?

    Love the show and for years have thought about starting a YT channel but it seems like there’s already too many woodworkers named Eric. Do I need to change my name?

  • Best woodworking podcast out there!

    Y’all are the BEST! Art, science, philosophy, business, psychology, society, oh and woodworking, all in one show! Listening to you in the shop is the best part of my week. And that episode when you mentioned Alan Watts was life-changing (both for me personally and how I teach). Thank you for great content! I look forward to each new episode.
