Shop Sounds Podcast

Shop Sounds Podcast

Author: Keith Johnson Language: English Episodes: 100
You'll find Shop Sounds Podcast in the sawdust-covered corner where woodworking meets casual conversation. Hosted by Keith Johnson (the voice behind @KJSawdust) and featuring Jason Hibbs from @BourbonMoth, this isn't a step-by-step instructional series. Instead, it captures the meandering, often hilarious discussions that happen naturally when two passionate makers are hanging out in the workshop. The "about nothing" description is a playful nod to the show's organic flow, where topics can drift from the nuances of a hand plane technique to life stories, project failures, and the simple philosophy found in creating things with your hands. Each episode feels like you've pulled up a stool in the shop, listening in on a genuine exchange between friends who happen to be deeply knowledgeable about the craft. It’s a podcast for anyone who appreciates the sound of a well-tuned table saw as much as the easy laughter that follows a good story. For Keith and Jason, the background hum of machinery is just the soundtrack to a wider conversation about the hobbies and small joys that shape a life. Tune in when you want the company of fellow enthusiasts without the pressure of a formal lesson.
