ShopNotes Podcast

The ShopNotes Podcast brings the camaraderie of the workshop straight to your ears. Each week, hosts John Doyle, Logan Wittmer, and Phil Huber-editors from the renowned Woodsmith, Popular Woodworking, and ShopNotes magazines-pull up a stool for an unscripted chat about their current projects. You’ll hear the real lessons learned from mistakes and successes, along with personal shop stories that resonate with anyone who’s ever picked up a tool. This isn't just theory; it's the applied craft, discussing techniques, tools, and materials in practical terms. The conversation often delves into behind-the-scenes news and developments from the wider woodworking community, offering a unique perspective from seasoned professionals. Regular segments feature deep-dive interviews with other experts and thoughtful answers to listener-submitted questions, making the dialogue a two-way street. Produced by Active Interest Media, this podcast is a natural extension of the magazines, designed to inform and inspire your next build while keeping you company at the bench. Whether you're a seasoned furniture maker or just getting started with hand tools, the hosts' accessible, experienced voices provide a steady stream of ideas and honest shop talk.
