In this episode, we explain the reason behind our resent silence and how we have been focused on building the podcast to be bigger and better. We talk questions and answers, holidays, my very own new MS Welding product launch, Aliens, UFO's and much much more.
On this weeks show I talk about the welding industry, Linked In, the effect that can have as a negative In uncertain times, and the new studio camera set up. https://mswelding.co.uk/
From selling guitars In Leeds to becoming one of the most known and respected welding demonstrators In the UK, Joe pops In for a leisurely chat and the well known MS Welding coffee!
I've known this lad from the very start of his career. Not just from Linkedin, not just from trade shows, but from dealing with him from the very start. I was the demonstrator and teacher who taught him on an EWM Alpha Q 330.
Joe knew my Dad as well as my mum. A great kid with lots going for him and a pleasure to have him on the show.
Get me some of those sunnies!!!!!!!
Enjoy.
In this episode I keep it short, simple and to the point. I have a quick rant about the industry and how others behave within it, from an engineer and business owners point of view.
This week Callum Hermiston returns to the Weld Like Bazza podcast studio. We talk about the Mach show 2024, Cobots, Welding simulators and the benefits of them, Tig speed by EWM, as well as a good laugh as we get into the topic of lifestyle, running, cycling, dedication and the benefits of trying to clean up our acts later in life.
This was such a laid back show, and I cannot wait to hear what you all think.

The whole idea behind The Weld Like Bazza Podcast was to keep Dad involved and in conversations even after he passed. Almost a year on from his passing, Its time to try and reach out and help even more than ever before.
After a year struggling with my loss, its time to open up, and I couldn't think of a better way to do it that to include all of you.
Did you know In the uk we lose 5000 every year to suicide? If this show reaches just 1 man who contacts Andys Man Club then its 1 man more we have helped.
Tissues at the ready as we go deep with the truly amazing Andy Bampton.

We talk about Coffee, the Middle East, and the huge lack of engineers, welders and people taking up those vocational careers in the UK. We talk at length about what is needed from the welding industry as a collective to entice the youth of today into our fantastic industry.
This week, I sit down in the studio to reflect on the weeks events. I talk about learning to be more Monk, The price of everything, and the vanlue of nothing.
Thanks to each and every one of you who take the time to listen. I can't do it without you.
