The One Where They Torture Solicitors | Off The Cut Podcast Episode 218

About this episode

The hosts discuss the challenges of content creation, tools in woodworking, and various cultural topics.

We're back and diving straight into the harsh realities of creating content when the algorithm clearly prefers confirmation bias over the actual, frustrating truth. Zac gives us the rundown on a speaker build that required way more technical tweaking than those viral DIY videos ever admit, and we debate if the new Kreg joinery tool actually has what it takes to dethrone the Festool Domino, or if we're all just victims of influencer marketing. We also swap notes on the absolute best ways to handle door-to-door salespeople, the mystery of Carhartt's transition into high fashion, deep pour epoxy that decides to smoke in the cup, the devastating results of taking a Japanese pole saw to aluminum extrusion, and the shared global trauma of having a U2 album forcefully injected into our iPods.
