Episode 111 of the Trampled Underfoot Podcast starts with a conversation about landmark events in history, ignited by a bad joke. Suddenly, Eloy Escagedo and Mark Lindsay find themselves talking about how important coffee is in society, culture, and social gatherings.

Trampled Underfoot Podcast – 104 – Fashionably Late With Nowhere To Go
Episode 104 of the Trampled Underfoot Podcast is a bit different. Eloy Escagedo and Mark Lindsay begin the episode by touching on the explosion in Lebanon. Their initial thoughts were discussed, but remember that the episode was recorded only a few hours after the explosion occurred.

Trampled Underfoot Podcast – 103 – Head First

Trampled Underfoot Podcast – 91 – Enamels and Spaniards and Jerks – Oh My!
Why would someone use enamel paint for a woodworking project? Well, for lots of reasons – but that doesn’t mean you have to like it. Mark Lindsay tells why he hates using enamels in woodworking. Eloy Escagedo tells us about two men with the surname Escagedo who were executed in Spain for taking part in a rebellion in the 1250s. It turns out these were the first 2 documented mentions of that surname, and the reason for it was pretty wild.
