Florian Gadsby crafts ceramics that sell in one minute (Ep 48)

Morgan Eckroth is the reigning US Barista Champion who finished second in the 2022 World Barista Championship. Morgandrinkscoffee is a blend of real world experience, practical advice, art, education, business, and pure entertainment: all revolving around coffee. In a sea of angry videos, cynical videos, confrontational videos, endless clickbait and short-attention span noise, Morgan's short form videos are a breath of fresh air. These videos are brief vignettes recreating simple, quiet, slice of life moments in a real coffee shop. Morgan sets up the camera and performs the roles of both barista and customer. They're anecdotal scenes that all seem to be created from a place of honesty and observation. She's completely turned the script on what the internet has taught us to expect in a video. It's so weird how kindness is now radical. Watch Morgandrinkscoffee on TikTok and YouTube Support The WTS Podcast

It was fun to catch up with Jason Hibbs from Bourbon Moth Woodworking and talk about the life cycle of woodworkers on YouTube, the Airstream cult, and why TV can't draw any audience for woodworking shows. We also have a formal statement from Blacktail Studio about the river table debate.    Bourbon Moth on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@Bourbonmoth Help support The WTS: https://www.patreon.com/thewts

Jon is a graffiti artist and teacher whose videos transcend mere education and touch upon other topics and philosophy in the world of art. In this episode we get into the future of art and how artificial intelligence can create art much quicker and, in many cases, just as good as humans. Will we really need human artists for most art creation, especially commercial art and graphic design?   Jon's video, The END of ART. https://youtu.be/x6cjWvjf220    Support the podcast: https://www.patreon.com/thewts

Support the podcast at: https://www.patreon.com/thewts Cam Anderson from Blacktail Studio is back for the 3.5th time to talk about epoxy, big slabs of wood, and YouTube. Blacktail Studio is still the most popular woodworking channel on YouTube, recently passing 2 million subscribers, a significant number of whom are probably hate-watching. (You know who you are.) Cam's got over 227 million channel views…and that's off the success of full-length videos, not shorts. His videos feature really really big slabs of lumber, gallons and gallons of epoxy, and lots of dollar signs in the thumbnails. But above all the glamor and glitz, Cam is an artist and the furniture he makes is stunningly beautiful. Blacktail Studio channel: https://www.youtube.com/@BlacktailStudio
