Jonathan, I can't pin a post either, but I'm more than happy to bump this topic to the top until Joseph gets to it and pins this for you.

If you are seriously asking (hard to tell on the internet) It's basically a radio show that you can download and listen to. You can listen to it on your pc. In this case the format is kinda like 3-4 guys sitting around having coffee and talking shop.

I would really encourage everyone here to check this podcast out. If you are like me and are on android. I have had really good luck with Beyondpod https://play.google.com/store/apps/deta ... dpod&hl=en they have a free version and a paid version.

I really like the one about taking/giving weld tests.

Jon,
I hope you and the rest of the welding community enjoy the podcasts. Yes, we still are holding a guest interview every other podcast. That might change according to what we have going on but interviews will always be there. The interviews have the most hits on them as far as downloads so our audience obviously finds those the most interesting.

I will continue to update here as needed and try to answer questions.

Episode 6 of the Welding Tips & Tricks Podcast "Pricing Jobs" is now live. This was probably the most fun topic to record with Jody and Roy. Pricing jobs is always nerve racking when starting out, and still is for me at times. If you haven't listened to any of the podcasts yet give episode 6 a listen. In my opinion it is the best so far.

Another good one. Would be fun if you guys each came up with a sign off phrase. -Keep your tungsten sharp.

I just binge-listened to 1-6. Great work, guys!! The one about pricing out jobs was very very helpful for me. I want to get into my own side work soon, and eventually my own company full time. But had no clue where to start. Now I feel much more confident in stepping that direction!

Weldakota,
I am glad that helped. That was one of the most unknown topics to me when I started. I had no idea how to price or quote jobs. Learned through experience I have gained so far and the help of good friends.

On another note, episode 7 went live today. We interviewed Joel Buschmann of Overkill Racing and Chassis, or @overkillracingandchassis on Instagram. If you want an interesting back story on how someone got into welding, and in this case building Monster Trucks, I highly recommend giving episode 7 a listen.

Missed you on #7 Jonathan. Thanks for being on the podcast Joel.
I really like when you guys talk about practical real world scenarios. Like the fact that if you lawn dart a 10,000# truck, something is going to break. I bet some people could argue that tig welding the DOM would make a "better" weld but ultimately, as Jody pointed out, some material is likely going to fail first. Probably slightly misquoting Jody again "if they made airplanes so they wouldn't crack, they would never get off the ground".
Keep it up gang!

Seems quiet.

I've been catching up a bit and enjoying every episode.

I'm surprised there are not more comments here.
