The FitZall Old tool Podcast A show about antique/vintage tools and the people who love them. Each episode, we discuss our experiences finding and using specific tools as well as the stories surrounding them. Join us in talks about picking, history, and
The FitZall Podcast is a delightfully disjointed, rambling, and tangential podcast that is both entertaining and informative. Hosted by Jimmy DiResta, Andrew Alexander, and Eric "The Renovator," this podcast takes you on a wild ride of conversations that often stray into politically incorrect and slightly offensive territory, but always manages to keep listeners engaged and entertained. The authenticity of their conversations is what makes it so perfect, as they often forget there's a mic in front of them. It truly feels like you're listening to friends having a conversation without any boundaries.
One of the best aspects of this podcast is the humor. It is funnier than most comedians' podcasts and provides a refreshing break from the seriousness of life. With plenty of ball busting on Jimmy, who seems to have an endless supply of gel for his hair, the banter between the hosts is absolutely hilarious. Andrew brings a middle-aged man attitude mixed with wisdom, while Eric's combination of humor and wisdom makes him one of the funniest people to listen to. The podcast not only brings laughter but also offers plenty of good life advice.
One criticism could be that the podcast can be disjointed at times. The conversations often go off on tangents and can be difficult to follow if you're looking for a structured discussion or focused content. Additionally, some listeners may find certain parts politically incorrect or slightly offensive. However, these aspects add to the authenticity and rawness of the podcast.
In conclusion, The FitZall Podcast is a perfect combination of entertainment and information. Whether you love tools or not, this podcast will bring a smile to your face with its humorous anecdotes and valuable life advice. It feels like listening to friends having unfiltered conversations, making it relatable and enjoyable for all listeners. However, if you're easily offended or prefer structured discussions, this may not be the best podcast for you. Overall, The FitZall Podcast is a must-listen for anyone looking for an entertaining and slightly unconventional podcast experience.
