Mechanical engineering isn't dying — it's entering a golden age. In this episode I make the case for why, if you're an ME or working in hardware, now is the time to go all in and go fast.

A nostalgic look back at the iconic and timeless movie, Chitty Chitty Bang Bang! Who knew that this old classic would hold so many gold nuggets for designer in our day and age. In this episode I dive deep into the lyrical (and design) genius of the song "Grow The Roses of Success". Come take a walk…
In this episode I discuss the despair we face in the United States as evidenced by the past week and the assassination of Charlie Kirk. Despair devalues, dehumanizes, and devolves us as human beings. We must fight it with everything we have.
