Hello and welcome to episode number 964 of The Potter's Cast.

So stoked that we get to do an episode today

now a little quick short update uh i gave i gave an update over the weekend on what was going

on with my eye and i was just going to say that there's been no changes since then and to now. So that's about all I'm going to say

about my eye right now. Well, we've got a great guest coming on this show today. His name is

Jonathan Kaplan, and he wrote a book on molds. And I'm really stoked to be able to have him on

the show. We didn't talk just about his mold making book,

which this episode was supposed to be released. I give you a little history on this.

Was supposed to be released a little while ago, but we recorded it quite a while ago,

thinking that we had this great plan of when his book was being released and all

coming out at the right time and then next thing you know i got i got hurt and all things kind of

came to a screeching halt so beginning of the show i'm you know you'll hear me saying that you

know that we that in sika was two months before the time we recorded recorded this. So would that be like May sometime?

So that's how long this has been sitting in the, sitting in the wings waiting to go out for

the release of his book. Now we also talk about the three careers and ceramics that he has

been through, which is quite fun to hear that story. And so not only is he, you know,

writing the book on making molds, but also he's got a great story about his journey with ceramics.
