I'm your host, Paul Blaze.

Hey, hey, y'all.

Welcome to episode 649, and it's about that time to start the podcast, right?

Here we are, hanging out out listening to the podcast i'm with you thank you thanks for being a part of this everybody goes through transitions

in life you can't be alive without having to come to some kind of transition and Steve

Irvin who is our guest today has spent decades in ceramics decades and he makes

amazing work okay amazing work But he's in a transition. He's in a transition

of life where he's going from doing one type of pottery to going to another type of pottery.

And it's so interesting to kind of hear this part of his life and where he is, where he's

been and where he is and where he's going. And so this is going to be, I think, a really interesting

conversation because we're all going to face this at some point in our lives, right? So there you

go. So let's jump to this conversation I have with Steve Irvin right after this work from our sponsor.

One of my favorite tools in the studio is the studio sander.

I love that tool because I can take my pieces right out of the kiln, go over to the studio sander, and boom, boom, boom, I got a nice smooth bottom on my pots.

So if you want to get the very best thing to clean up your work, then get the Studio Sander

from Forrest Middleton at FLM Ceramicam.com forward slash Studio Sander for your favorite studio

tool.

Steve Irvin, welcome to the Potter's Cast.
