Episode 29 - Get The Habit
I know. It's been 8 months since the last Thoughts from The Tinkerage. It is my intent to try and get back into the habit. No guarantees. But I'm going to try. I did think of pretending the last one was the end of Season 1 and this was the start of Season 2 but that wouldn't be an accurate or...

Episode 025 - The Covid Episode (Read the notes before listening.)
This is the second longest podcast I have recorded. It was recorded in two parts, over two weeks, and as I explain at the end I haven't done any editing other than joining the two parts together, oh, and removing a piece of incorrect science, so there are some longer than usual gaps as I thought...
