Shane talks about: How Ham Radio Clubhouse got started Why the show stays unedited and unscripted What it’s really like running a long-term livestream podcast His involvement in hot air ballooning and aviation projects Why community matters more than polish in ham radio We also dig into ham radio clubs, meetings, and how the hobby can stay fun, welcoming, and hands-on — instead of getting stuck in procedure and paperwork.
