The Spark Gap Podcast was a passion project intended to spread the joy of designing electronics with as many people as possible. It was never intended as a commercial endeavor and never accepted any sponsorship deals. It was purely two enthusiastic engineers speaking about one of the things they love.

It ran for 53 episodes and accumulated over 1 million downloads.


Life got really busy in a hurry and the project was retired. The original podcast website is no longer up, but the Libsyn hosted page remains.

Who knows, maybe one day it will start back up. I know at least one thing;

The passion remains.
