The ShopNotes crew is closing in on another milestone! Join Phil Huber, Logan Whitmer, and John Doyle (plus a surprise appearance from Notch, the new shop cat) as they dive into listener comments, give an update on Woodworking in America, and revisit the ongoing Red Oak rebrand. It’s the usual mix of shop talk, good humor, and a few smart remarks along the way. Send your feedback or questions to woodsmith@woodsmith.com, or drop a comment on the ShopNotes Podcast YouTube channel.

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.
