This is the Potter's Cast.

A podcast home for Potters Everywhere.

It's a community of Potters dedicated to grow their business.

We're picking up where the art degree ends.

I'm your host, Paul Blaze.

Hello, my friends, and welcome to episode number 741 of the Potter's cast. I'm pretty stoked about today's Potter that we are

going to be talking with because I've met him before and hung out with him before. His name is

Joe Lyons and he's a dude that is, well, he's an American and he's living in Canada and when I had gone up there

for this this workshop that was being put on by a buddy of mine named Chiro I got to meet Joe and

hang out with him a little bit while I was up there in Canada, out on Vancouver Island.

So, yeah, really cool guy.

So I was really stoked to be able to get him on the show and to have spent some time with him.

And he's a guy that really brings up this idea of community.

And if you listen to the conversation, you'll see it progress where he talks about community

kind of very, very much so in terms of his story and why he makes decisions and the things

that he's looking for. And I just thought that that was really interesting. So we end up

spending some time talking specifically about that topic. So let's jump into this conversation I had with Joe Lyons right after

this word from our sponsor. Have you been looking for the best trimming tools for your ceramics?

Well, look no further than diamond core Tools, pottery trimming tools.

Their advanced, never dull, stainless steel blades are sharp enough to trim clay that's

either too wet or too dry and designed to provide minimal drag in resistance for a smooth

finished product.
