If you follow me on instagram, then you know that last week I was sick. Turns out I couldn't actually talk long enough without coughing to record. Luckily it wasn't the you-know-what-that-must-not-be-written and I'm back on the horse this week, but I didn't want to skip a week so enjoy this chat I had with Dave Bauer on his podcast, Making Problems to Solve!
Thanks for listening and definitely go check out Dave!!

You all know how much I love chatting with my friends, and this week I had the honor of chatting with one of my closest friends, a guy who brags about being weird but isn't all that weird. Either that, or I am and can't see it! Anyway, enjoy the episode as we talk about CNC woodworking, 3d printing, and Jeff even gives some great advice on things he wish he knew when he started with his CNC.

Kat Liepins is an amazingly talented artist from Chicago whose art straddles the line between street and pop art and doesn't shy away from being bold and colorful. We talk about her origins as an artist, the importance of being true to your artistic self, and even the tools we use to create. It's a great conversation with an artist who doesn't shy away from the term. Enjoy!

That's right! In this episode we finally reveal the winner of the Unwrap a Project challenge! You'll have to listen to find out who won, but suffice it to say it was a choice that we're not going to get a whole lot of flack over.
Also: Ethan and Vincent are now tied in host challenges. Ethan won Enlighten Us, but Vincent had a comeback with Unwrap a Project. It's going to take another challenge to see who the ultimate winner is.
Thanks for listening, writing reviews, and your continued support!

Welcome to Episode 19! If we had to pick the person who would teach us how to best get the ball rolling in building a brand, there's literally no one better than our guest this week. Jason Stapleton is one of the premiere experts on branding, influence, and communication, and you'd do well to listen to this episode if you're trying to build a more influential brand for your company. While not strictly about making, there are nuggets of wisdom in this episode that Jason actually charges money to give his clients. Don't miss out on what we would call a very generous gift from someone who was super generous with their time and their knowledge. Enjoy the episode!! Where to find Jason online:

Welcome to Episode 18!
It's not often we get to have a long time friend on the show, but Vincent and Ant have been friends forever; or at least it feels that way (in a good way).
In this episode we dive into Ant's history as a content creator, his amazing story of putting his nose to the grindstone and pushing for every break and then, finally, getting a big one. It's a great story and one that will absolutely get you off your butt so you can go out and create and dominate(tm).

Welcome to Episode 14!
We're back! Ethan and I are back way earlier than planned, and this week it's just hanging out talking making, an old thing I heard that bugged me, talking about growing a social presence as a maker, our audience overlap, running, and lots of other stuff. It's a fun hang and we hope you like it.
Enjoy the episode!!

Welcome to episode 13!
This week's episode is the season finale of Because We Make. It gets a little emotional at the beginning (and the end) but then Vincent and Ethan have the pleasure of talking to Sharon from Figments Made, who is certifiably one of the nicest people ever. No joke. We talk about Project Egress, making, combining art and making and what the movement means to us. Enjoy the episode!!

Welcome to episode 12!
After a week of constant failures, something good came out of it for Vincent, so Ethan and Vincent decided to talk about the good that can come out of experimentation and failure. Be not afraid of failure, my friends.

Welcome to episode 11!
We use the term "artisan" rather casually but my guest this week, Ethan Carter, is truly an artisan. He's an amazingly talented leather worker and also has some great skills with woodworking. Sort of a making renaissance man. We talked about his history, how he eschewed YouTube for Instagram and how Instagram is possibly more important for makers than YouTube, and all sorts of other topics.

Welcome to episode 10! A milestone episode! Thank you so much for sticking around on this journey with me!
If I could pinpoint the guy who started it all, it would be Bob Clagett. Saying he's an inspiration to me is the biggest understatement I'll ever make in this podcast and having him on the podcast and being able to talk to him for as long as I did is going to go down as a highlight in my career as podcaster as well as a maker. It's also special for me to drop this episode today since today would have been my dad's 71st birthday, and people like Bob have inspired me in ways that help me honor my dad every time I enter my shop.
We talked about everything; Bob's new farm, making, the evolution of his YouTube channel and brand, and what it means to be part of this movement. I even kept the fanboying to a minimum. Oh who am I kidding. I tried to. It's hard, though.
Enjoy the episode!!

Welcome to episode 9! This week I had the honor of speaking to one of the first YouTube makers I ever followed, the amazing and talented Keith Decent. In this episode we talk about making, creativity, art, and what makes the community known as the maker movement special! Note: The audio from the recording was completely jacked, so things might sound a little off and I apologize for that, but I managed to save the episode and in the end that's all that matters, right?

Welcome to episode 8! If you're a woodworker, and you watch woodworking videos on YouTube, there's a pretty good chance you watch Steve Carmichael's videos, and I had the distinct honor of talking to him this week. We spoke about everything from woodworking to music to his time in a cover band and even his evolution on YouTube. It was a blast talking to someone whose work I've enjoyed for so long and I hope you enjoy it as much as I did!

Welcome to episode 7! It was a distinct honor this week to speak to Steve Ramsey to whom I owe a great deal. One of the reasons I call myself a woodworker today is my being a part of his Weekend Woodworker course and getting a solid foundation in woodworking from a great teacher. In this episode we talk about woodworking, the current climate of tool collection and tribalism, and Steve's out of the box philosophy on making woodworking as accessible to the masses as possible.

Welcome to episode 6! I couldn't help but be a little star-struck speaking to Evan and Katelyn. They've been very influential to me and a constant source of inspiration and ideas for my making pursuits. We talk a lot about YouTube, their multiple changes in direction, how they keep their channel fresh and even get into an interesting discussion about TV and what TV people don't understand about YouTube. You'll definitely enjoy this discussion!

Welcome to episode 5! This week I had the pleasure of talking to the husband and wife YouTube DIY duo Kim & Garrett. I enjoyed this chat so much and they are just wonderful people who really are just out there bringing DIY to the masses. We talked about everything from YouTube, to family, to how hard it is to build an Xcarve to our adventures in the kitchen and we even came to realize that Garrett and I might have been separated at birth!

Welcome to episode 3! This week I have the privilege of talking to a guy who runs a tech channel on YouTube that breaks the mold of what you expect from tech channels. Gary, aka The Everyday Dad, is an unconventional digital gear enthusiast who makes tech approachable and doesn't spend all his time telling you about specs and why you need to go nuts buying stuff, which is rare in this world of "you must own the latest and greatest." We talk about cameras, gear, the origins of his channel and what the future holds for The Everyday Dad.

Welcome to episode 2! This week I sit down with my friend Bruce A. Ulrich a YouTuber, podcaster, and woodworker who's one of the nicest people I think I've had the pleasure of meeting. In this episode we spend a lot of time talking about woodworking, making, Bruce's podcast We Built a Thing, and what it's like to grind through growing a YouTube channel while still dealing with all your other responsibilities. It's a long episode, for sure, but it's a good one, I promise!Where to find Bruce online:

Welcome to the inaugural episode of Because We Make! On this episode, I speak to the inspiration for this podcast, David Szweduik. David is a photographer living in the Northern hinterlands of Minnesota and has two great podcasts (linked below). After an appearance on one of his shows back in February, I was super-motivated to do this podcast so it was only appropriate that he be guest number 1.
In this episode we talk about creativity, making, how we got started doing what we do, and what it means to be a creative person in 2019.
