I'm using the standard app for music that comes with the S6... :x
I just download them and do the same thing. I have to remember to go on and download them though!

I'll have to look for an app, I want to be able to skip forward or reverse, pause it and come back later...etc

You can also stream is off our website where you can pause it and fast forward as you like. I don't think it saves your place when you come back though. I do know that most of the podcast app carriers save your place and allow you to pick up where you left off when you come back.

I am using beyond pod https://play.google.com/store/apps/deta ... .beyondpod You can also adjust how much ffw and rev go in time. Definitely no problem pausing, returning and automatic downloads of subscriptions. You can configure so it only downloads when plugged in and on wifi, or stream episodes as it suits. I play through blueteeth in my truck and the steering wheel controls do what they should in the app.

I learned how to weld at night, but not last night. (despite how my weld looks)

I notice no one discusses the podcasts here.

Who is actually listening regularly? Just curious.

Regularly? Kind of. More of a-hey I got time to kill let's listen. Wish I could just sit done and listen but too much over crap in the way sometimes. Might go start another one now.
A student now but really want to weld everyday. Want to learn everything about everything. Want to become a knower of all and master of none.

I've listened to every PC except the underwater one, got behind but caught recently as work is slow.

it seems Roy and Jonathan don't participate here, maybe for the same reason as Jody (?) I did send an email to the PC address but no response, but then again maybe they receive a lot of emails and can't respond to everyone.

I always got Jody's reasoning, even in the early days, when he'd have had time to participate actively.

Roy was quite active here at one time. First under the name RedIron881 (85 posts in a fairly short time), then only three posts as CrummyWelding. It's been 11 months since Roy logged on.

Jonathan is still a moderator here, and logged on today. It's hard, with a family including a toddler, a job, and a side-hustle, to find time for everything, yet he still shows up to check new users' first posts, an important task in spam control.

I kind of wish Roy was on here. He seems like a darn good asset to have around and another person to post in the what i welded today thread so we can all drop our jaws some more.

I think, when they found Instagram to be such an easy photo-sharing system, and just as great a welding community as this, they shifted their focus.

I do like Instagram, but I don't use or want a smartphone, and doing it from a laptop is slightly tedious, so I've not been lured in the way they have. It's still a bit of work. I do it, and enjoy it, but it doesn't distract me from spending time here.

I listen to every episode Monday-Tuesday on my work drive. Haven't missed one yet. Jonathan has posted in this very thread a few times.

I don't care for the how to parts about youtube, instagram or business as much as hearing how the guests got into welding. The stories are the best part for me.

Good. I wasn't intoxicated yet when Roy asked me that question... :roll: I did not expect it to take as long as it did. We talked for over three hours to get the hour and changed that got used. Having fun the whole time, but if I had anticipated, I'd have waited a bit to take my prescriptions, and had fewer beers.

They ought to do some behind the scenes for the podcast of some of the weird and funny moments. Same with Jodys videos. Have a montage of mistakes and issues and funny moments just to show another side of the welding trade

An "outakes" episode would be funny. I think I'll suggest it, but I'm not sure Roy keeps the unused stuff.

I roasted Kathleen Porco over that "water in space" thing, when I should have kept my mouth shut. I wasn't wrong, but it was very rude, and I'm sorry I did that.

I wish that had been an "outtake".

I do participate as and when I can. Steve is right, I have A LOT of irons in the fire and that makes it very hard to respond to posts here. I don't mean to neglect this thread or even the members here. I just have to pick when and where I dedicate my time.

Also, as Steve said, I still come on to the forum to do things behind the scenes. Not as much as I used to but I do still try to pull my weight behind the scenes.

As for the emails. We do get quite a lot of emails and they are usually forwarded to each of us (Jody and myself) but I don't manage them myself. Feel free to contact me on which email it was and I will get back to you. superiorweldandfab@gmail.com

I'm hoping for an April fools version. Have Bob Clagett on to discuss the new wood filler for tig that the 3d printing community stumbled on or some such foolishness.

April fools ;)

That was from the guys at Bad Obsession Motorsport..

Lots of nice welding and fabrication (and british humour ;) ) in their 4WD Mini project: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7hCPODj ... g1qjtxA_nq

Bye, Arno.

Guys, I really liked the tig aluminum specifics episode. Would definitely like to hear other material specific topics. How about a metal finishing discussion too? LOL moment. Roy: "wow that is really good info. I'm definitely going to print that off...when I find my printer" (possibly paraphrased)

Yeah, as this was recorded, Roy had just moved a good 1000 miles, and most of his stuff was still in boxes.

I can relate.

Was going to signup for the NYC CNC open house next Friday, found out they expect about 500 people! I can imagine standing room only, I can't imagine they even have parking for that many, tried to see the place on Google Maps but there isn't a street view available. I know Roy and Jonathan will be there, anyone else?

Richard,
I hope you get to attend. We need to at least get to chat for a few mins. The parking will be no issue. The business across the street lets John use their parking lot. Plenty big. This will be the biggest year so far. Crazy how many people will be there. Makes me kinda nervous doing the welding clinics in a way.

Anyone else from the Forum going to the NYC CNC Open House?
