Great stuff. I find myself smiling throughout these episodes. I just get that feeling when watching someone create or explain something truly interesting and something they have a passion for. Feels like I’m watching Bill Nye again and the world is open. Maybe I forgot how engaging good entertainment can be.

Hey, for those of us who can’t see your program on our local TV stations OR on the satellite stations we get, a big thanks for putting them up for us to see on-line.

Quality TV IMHO

How come episode 102 does not show up in the list of podcasts on the itunes music store? I know I can get it directly, but I would prefer to download it as a podcast in order keep all the episodes together in the same category in my itunes library.

  iTunes only lets us keep 30 podcasts at a time, so unfortunately the older episodes fall off. We’ll continue to podcast Make: television even after all 10 episodes have premiered. Thanks for your question!
