Jimmy Diresta lives in in East Durham, NY and is affectionately referred to by many in the community as the Godfather of Making.

Grant Alexander is a maker and Youtuber based out of Ottawa, and is the host of the Creating, Living, and Making Projects Podcasts - aka the Clamp Podcast.

Jimmy and Grant visit the Tavern to talk about why and by whom they were inspired to begin making, the beauty and magic of tools that come with a history, the long road to get to East Durham and Maker Camp, and the realization that we're all grown ups who can buy the grown up tools and toys we've always been fascinated by.
