DX on the "Top Band"

Ever feel like your free time could be more interesting? That's the space where 99 Hobbies lives. Hosted by Dave-KZ1O, this podcast digs into the idea that a single pursuit, like Ham Radio, is actually a gateway to countless other projects and passions. Each episode is a conversation with someone who has stepped off the beaten path to try something genuinely unusual, whether it's a craft, a game, a technical experiment, or an offbeat skill. You'll hear the real stories behind these activities-not just the polished results, but the messy, fun, and sometimes frustrating process of learning something new. The focus is always on the accessible side of curiosity; these are things you can realistically do, too, if the spark catches. This isn't about passive listening, but about finding a nudge to start your own next project. By exploring how one hobby branches into many, the podcast reveals how interconnected our interests can be and how a bit of tinkering in one area often leads to surprising discoveries in another. Tune in for regular doses of inspiration from everyday people who decided to follow a quirky idea and see where it led them.
