  • Counting on Directions

    Craig Lockwood, the main man behind the glass told me the last episode was #250! I talked about my aversion to counting things like sculpture, knives or podcast episodes I’ve made. It’s a gross story but you’ll understand….. Talked Bladeshow, weird directions and the like.  Many thanks to the listeners and the sponsors for all the encouragement and support. Big thanks to Craig behind the glass. Couldn’t have done it without you. All the best, GF

  • Jared Thatcher does it all!

    My friend Jared Thatcher is the Bladesmith of Boothill Knives, he and his wife Kylee run Three Daughters Farm, Boothill Kitchen and train and raise world class hunting Dogs at TDF Kennels. As if that wasn’t enough, they hold Knife making classes every other weekend and Jared is the Mayor of his town in Kentucky. I Love taking with Jared and he’s one of my favorite business minds in knife making. We had a great time talking about what he’s been up to and making some connections between knife making and dog training. We talked about baseball for a bit until the connection dropped.(Subsequently it was exactly when the news broke that the Knicks fired their head coach. Seriously) 


    Jared is a great friend and you should definitely check out what hes up to. Follow him here:

  • Lila’s Odyssey

    My daughter Lila is back from college for a little bit and stopped in to the podcast to catch up. We talked about her college radio show, and compared notes on interviewing styles and then we covered the big snake in the shop and a crazy trip to MSG. This was our favorite episode we’ve recorded together. It’s always fun having her on and I’m very very proud of her.

  • Unqualified Gatekeeper (part 2)

    2 episodes ago I did a solo episode called “I Don’t Qualify to be a Gatekeeper”. I got so many messages about it, I wanted to add a little more perspective, more stories and even countering some of my points based on experiences. Big admission at the end. I might regret it. Thanks again for your support  -GF

    This week I told a couple of stories that embarrass me for your enjoyment as well as address the weird assertion of me being a gatekeeper?! What are you talking about?! I’m having some really difficulties relating to younger people and their unqualified opinions.  I apologized a couple of times already so don’t ask again. I’m with you. - GF

    Pat Quinn, Director of Center for Metal Arts is back to answer your forging questions! This episode we talked a lot about what goes into running an industrial hammer with a team of blacksmiths and how forge a 270 lb block of steel. Listener Questions have been really great and Pat takes a lot of time to give thoughtful and insightful answers. We covered a lot of ground and look forward to doing more episodes monthly. To get your questions answered, follow the Full Blast Podcast on Instagram and DM us there. 

    Many thanks to Pat again and as always I urge you to further your forging education at Center for Metal Arts. Classes available, housing and scholarships available too.

  • Ben Snure Lights It Up!

    Ben Snure is back and just finished forging in the Amarillo World Championship

    Blacksmiths. After months of practice Ben competed in forging Tongs, Horse Shoes and made it really far. Lots of practice, speed and learning efficiencies is what sounds like an incredible competition. I’m going to figure out how to make it out there next year. As always we read some weird news and had lowbrow laughs about genital humor. Great as always. Ben is the man.
