Welcome to EngineerGuy Stories. I'm Bill Hammack — for years, on the EngineerGuy video channel, I've shown you how things are made. This podcast is where I go further: about fifteen minutes at a time, one object or idea, told the way I'd tell it to you across a table — the wrong turns, the dead ends, and the way engineering so often runs ahead of the science meant to explain it. No interviews, no hurry; just a single story followed where it wants to go. Follow the show so you don't miss the first episode.

What is EngineerGuy Stories?

EngineerGuy Stories is Bill Hammack — the EngineerGuy — telling the stories engineering usually leaves out: the wrong turns, the dead ends, and the way a craft so often runs ahead of the science meant to explain it. Each episode takes a single object or idea and follows it where it wants to go, fifteen minutes at a time, told the way you'd tell it to one person across a table. No interviews, no hurry — just how engineers actually work, and why the real story is almost always stranger than the tidy version.

For years, on the EngineerGuy channel, I've shown you how things are engineered. The twelve minute videos on that channel have a tight focus on the object under study. So, there's little room for other aspecs of engineering I find interesting: the wrong turns, the dead ends, the way engineering so often runs ahead of the science meant to explain it. So in this podcast, called EngineerGuy Stories, I'll take about fifteen minutes to focus on one object or idea at a time, told the way I'd tell it to you across a table. I'll share how engineers create, and often reveal why the real story is almost always stranger than the tidy version. No interviews, no hurry. Just a single story, followed where it wants to go. When the podcast debuts, I hope you'll join me. I'm Bill Hammack.
