Podcasts about Ceramic

If your car sits outside every day… is a ceramic coating even worth it? I recently received a comment that sparked a really interesting discussion: "I still cannot embrace the small-bottle-type, multi-year ceramic coating product for the daily driver with no garage vehicle." And honestly… it's a fair question. In this video, I break down the real truth about ceramic coatings for daily drivers, especially cars that live outside with no garage. The detailing industry loves to talk about 5-year coatings, 7-year coatings, and even 9-year coatings, but the reality is most car owners don't actually need that kind of longevity. What most people really want is something that keeps their car looking good and makes it easier to clean. So in this episode, I share my real-world experience testing protection on my own daily driver that sits outside full-time. We'll talk about: • Why many people think ceramic coatings don't make sense for daily drivers • The biggest myths about multi-year ceramic coatings • Why the detailing industry is obsessed with durability claims • What actually matters more than longevity • My personal experiment running an uncoated daily driver for three years • Why cars that live outside actually benefit MORE from protection • The three realistic levels of paint protection every car owner should understand Does it make your life easier and your car easier to maintain? If you drive your car daily, park outside, and want your paint to stay looking great without spending hours detailing, this discussion will help you decide what type of protection actually makes sense.

Do you really need an IPA wipe before applying a ceramic coating after polishing? In this episode, I break down a real email from a customer who asked if you can go straight from polishing to coating — or if panel prep is mandatory. We'll cover: • Where the IPA wipe "rule" came from • How different polishes leave different residues • When panel prep actually makes sense • When it's unnecessary • Why overcomplication is hurting detailers If your polish finishes clean, do you really need to strip the surface again?

In this episode, Dr. Jockers discusses the pervasive impact of microplastics on your health, revealing how these hidden toxins are wreaking havoc on hormones, fat burning, and even heart and brain health. Microplastics, which are found in common household items, from food packaging to non-stick cookware, are silently accumulating in your body, contributing to serious health risks like infertility, chronic inflammation, and even dementia.   You'll learn why microplastics are so dangerous to your mitochondria and how their presence disrupts your ability to burn fat, leading to issues like insulin resistance and obesity. Research has shown that high exposure to these toxic particles increases the risk of heart disease and stroke, making it crucial to reduce your exposure.   Dr. Jockers also shares practical steps to detox these harmful substances, including the importance of supporting your liver function, using detox binders, sweating, and making lifestyle changes like avoiding plastic packaging and non-stick cookware. This episode provides actionable strategies for reducing your microplastic burden and protecting your health.

Welcome to another episode of Fratello On Air. This week, we hop into our time machine and travel back 10 years to 2016. As we'll see, in some ways, this wasn't so long ago. Yet, in others, it was a different lifetime. Join us as we look back on fonder days.HandgelenkskontrolleIt's been a while since we've recorded, and much of this is down to Mike's travels in Germany. Sadly, on one of the trips, he had a very Balazs-like travel experience involving planes and trains. If he did have a time machine, he'd probably go back and choose to sleep through his alarm that day. We mention an upcoming Sotheby's auction featuring a pair of Michael Jordan's shoes from the Dream Team Barcelona Olympics. Balazs discusses the return of The Night Manager, a show that, coincidentally, has returned after its first season in 2016! For the Handgelenkskontrolle, Balazs is wearing an upcoming release, the Nivada Grenchen F77 MKII. Mike was wearing his Rolex Sea-Dweller 1665 "Great White" in Germany and still has it on his wrist.Taking our time machine back to 2016Yes, it's hard to believe that 2016 was 10 years ago! Time flies! In this episode, we're reminiscing about a year that brought some interesting releases and behavior. Specifically, vintage watches were within a boom period. In particular, a Patek Philippe 1518 sold at Phillips for over CHF 11 million! It was hard for us to believe that watches were achieving these sums a decade ago.Many new watches from back then still feel relatively modern, but there's no doubt that larger diameters and chunkier cases were in vogue. The Blancpain Bathyscaphe Blue and Ceramic is a good example of this, but to be fair, the same basic platform is still in the catalog today. Speaking of big and robust watches, Robert-Jan reviewed the Sinn U212, which still looks fresh. If we truly want to feel old, Tudor was already in its second year of offering non-ETA movements. Omega launched a rare box-office stinker with the blue and white CK2998, a piece that has aged quite well.Our time machine continues its journey and finds the wild Hublot Big Bang Berluti, which was available in gold or steel and showed off a leather dial. Seiko, announced a partnership with PADI. This caused a stir, and several of us on the team grabbed one of the new models. TAG Heuer announced a Monza PVD, a retro chronograph with a thick case. However, we save the most significant announcement for last. Rolex, after producing steel Daytona 116500LN models with a steel bezel for over 25 years, introduced pieces with ceramic bezels. Understandably, the excitement was palpable and hit Basel like a hurricane. We remark that these watches have been unavailable since that time!We hope you enjoy today's episode. Share your watch memories from 2016 in the comments below, and let us know if we forgot any momentous pieces.

A new exhibit at the Nerman Museum in Overland Park packs a punch with ceramic lipsticks, guns, and colorful pastel flowers. Over her five-decade career, Kansas City clay artist Linda Lighton created sculptures that speak to some of the thorniest issues of our time.

photo by Janna Tew Sophie Haulman is a Brooklyn-based ceramicist and sculptor from Wilmington, North Carolina. She received her BFA (2019) from Virginia Commonwealth University's department of Sculpture + Extended Media. While maintaining her practice, she is also a ceramics teacher and works in ceramic production and fabrication. Her evolving work explores the sensuality of space, the body and the unknown through material-based experimentation, contemplation on process, investigation of tactile form, and a constant surrender to fate.   “every month grass came” is a contemplation on mortality and the temporary nature of all that we possess – our bodies, relationships, experiences, memories, desires. As beings of the natural world, we evolve, erode, disintegrate; how do we construct a coherent sense of identity from an existence that is ever-changing?  These ceramic works question and explore these themes of impermanence, loss, and the unknown through a material which has the capacity to long outlast our own bodies while bearing moments of our time within it. Its physical fragility but potential for permanence challenges the transitory nature of self. Sophie Haulman reflects on the idea of resiliency as crucial to surviving one's evolution.  Haulman's work is just as much about the labor and fate of process as it is about the result, considering “process” as both an action and a passage of time. Each piece was handbuilt with slow, methodical, repetitive movements encapsulated within the material body, resulting in forms that question themselves and occlude the transformations of their identities.  The title and show are dedicated to Steffan Elijah Haulman, the artist's deceased brother. His photo, seen daily on the side of her refrigerator, is held up by four contemplative word magnets that have become a kind of mantra: every | month | grass | came.  Sophie Haulman reckon with, or memento mori 2, 2025 Ceramic, glaze 60 × 60 × 3/4 in 152.4 × 152.4 × 1.9 cm. photo by Sophie Haulman Sophie Haulman, the well, or memento mori 1, 2025 Ceramic, glaze 13 1/2 × 19 1/2 × 19 1/2 in 34.3 × 49.5 × 49.5 cm, photo by Janna Tew Left to Right – Sophie Haulman Untitled 2, 2025 Ceramic 18 × 8 × 10 in 45.7 × 20.3 × 25.4 cm, Untitled 1, 2025 Ceramic 18 × 8 × 9 in 45.7 × 20.3 × 22.9 cm. photo by Sophie Haulman

This show has been flagged as Clean by the host. 01 Introduction This episode is the second in an 8 part series on nuclear reactor technology. This episode will cover types of nuclear fuel, recycling of nuclear fuel, uranium and thorium resources, and medical isotopes. 03 Types of Nuclear Fuel 03 Natural Uranium 04 Enriched Uranium 05 Mixed Oxide Fuel, or MOX 06 Thorium Fuel 08 Plutonium in Uranium Cycle Reactors 09 Depleted Uranium 10 Oxide or Ceramic versus Metallic Fuel 12 Recycling Spent Fuel 13 Once Through Fuel Cycles 14 Reprocessing Spent Uranium Fuel into Mixed Oxide or MOX Fuel 16 Reprocessing and Thorium Fuel 17 Direct Reuse of Spent Light Water Fuel in Heavy Water Moderated Reactors 18 DUPIC - Direct Use of Used PWR Fuel in CANDU 20 RepU - Reprocessed Uranium Fuel in CANDU 21 Uranium and Thorium Resources 21 Uranium Mining 22 Uranium in Sea Water 23 Thorium 24 Medical Isotopes 25 Examples of Common Medical Isotopes 26 How Medical Isotopes are Made 27 Producing Isotopes in Research Reactors 29 Producing Isotopes in Power Reactors 31 Summary The basis of nuclear fission is nuclear fuel. There are three main types of nuclear fuel in commercial use today. These are natural uranium, enriched uranium, and mixed oxide or MOX uranium-plutonium mixtures. It is possible to use thorium in a sort of thorium-plutonium or thorium-uranium MOX fuel, but this not currently economically viable at this time when uranium is so cheap and abundant. Spent fuel can be recycled and used in a reactor again. Medical isotopes are an important byproduct of the nuclear industry, and a large share of the world's population has benefited from this at one time or another. 32 Conclusion In the next episode I will describe the basic features and characteristics of reactors together with descriptions of the most widely used commercial reactor types. This concludes the second episode of an 8 part series on nuclear reactor technology. Provide feedback on this episode.

Wayne Higby and Benjamin Evans co-curated the retrospective History: A Legacy in Motion, which showcases twenty-six artists that have taught ceramics at Alfred University since its founding in 1900. In our interview we talk about Charles Binns and the early days of Alfred ceramics, as well as the contributions the school and its faculty have made to the development of studio ceramics in America. Higby taught ceramics at Alfred for more than five decades and was the Director and Principal Curator of the Alfred Ceramic Art Museum that was completed in 2014. Evans now directs the museum, which fulfills its mission through rotating exhibitions and stewardship of a vast ceramic collection. ceramicsmuseum.alfred.edu   I'm happy to be serving as juror for the 16th Annual Workhouse Clay International Exhibition.

In this episode of The Great Plains Archaeology Podcast, Carlton sits down with Michael Page of the Wyoming State Archaeologist's Office to explore a lesser-known side of Wyoming archaeology, its rich and varied ceramic traditions. While Wyoming is often defined by its iconic Paleoindian kill sites, Michael's work reminds us that the region's history is far more diverse than the stone tools and bison jumps that dominate public imagination.This episode highlights the vital role of ceramic research in understanding the Northwest Plains and offers a fresh perspective on Wyoming's deep human history.TranscriptsFor rough transcripts of this episode go to https://www.archaeologypodcastnetwork.com/great-plains-archaeology/33LinksThe Wyoming Pottery ProjectThe Archaeology of the North American Great Plains by Douglas B.

Marcus' What You Know 'Bout That trivia game for Wednesday November 12th, 2025. 

The Czech republic is the Pays d'Honneur for this biennial event. De Mains De Maîtres is dedicated to the profound artistry of making things by hand. This, the 5th edition of the biennale, has grown into one of the most prestigious applied Art and Design events in the Greater Region. De Mains de Maîtres was founded in 2016 under the patronage of Their Royal Highnesses, the Grand Duke and Grand Duchess of Luxembourg.  The mission is to honour craftsmanship and give visibility to those who shape our world with their hands. In this conversation we will discuss how craftsmanship connects heritage, identity, sustainability, and emotional well-being across generations. It is linked to the materials around us, the conversations and subversions of the day, the need to slow down and connect with our world through our hands and our heads. Artistry of this level is worth elevating, celebrating, respecting and encouraging through our educational system - another theme of the conversation. This year hosts Czechia as the Pays d'Honneur, bringing centuries of glassmaking, ceramics, puppetry and design heritage to Luxembourg. My guests this week are: - Her Excellency, Ambassador Barbara Karpetová, who has been instrumental in coordinating Czechia's participation. - Tom Wirion, Director General of the Chambre des Métiers. - Embroidery artist Yanis Miltgen, whose sculptural textile work has gained international acclaim. - Ceramicist Ellen van der Woude, whose work is influenced by nature, harmony and emotional resonance. Ambassador Barbara Karpetová speaks so eloquently about the changing borders and names of her homeland, and how, throughout this, the language of the artists developed its own conversation with people. The humour that can be spotted in artisans' work through generations of history; the means to remain resilient through periods of political repression. Craft can hold the history and identity of a nation's people. Her Excellency also highlighted the psychological importance of making: the sense of satisfaction in producing something from beginning to end, and the power of craft to reconnect us with our own creativity which is so easily lost in an era of screens and speed. Ambassador Barbara also spoke about the rich material landscape of ‘Bohemia' which easily allowed the arts of certain genres to flourish, such as glass-making. On the Luxembourg side, Tom Wirion, Director General of the Chambre des Métiers, underscored how essential the craft sector is to the country's cultural landscape. Tom noted that one of the greatest challenges remains perception: encouraging young people (and parents) to view skilled trades as a stable, innovative, and rewarding career path. “Buying a crafted object,” he explained, “means investing in a gesture, not just a product.” His vision is to make artisans visible, valued, and actively supported through new pathways, partnerships, and gallery collaborations.  And naturally the educational system has to allow this subject to shine more too. Ceramic artist Ellen van der Woude, formerly a lawyer, turned to ceramics after personal loss and found profound therapeutic power in clay. Her sculptures embrace movement, tension, harmony, and imperfection: an homage to nature's organic balance. For this edition, she presents three works inspired by the transition from winter to spring, reminding us that renewal follows even the longest winters.  Ellen's own confidence in realising that she was indeed an artist only settled once she won the Jury Prize in the first edition of De Mains de Maîtres. She went on to win numerous other awards since. Yanis Miltgen, at just 24 years, found embroidery at the age of 15. Like Ellen, he found working with his hands and mind to be therapy as he had panic attacks at school. Yanis has won the most prestigious embroidery prize (just last week in London); the Hand & Lock Prize. He also won “Les de(ux) mains” Prize from the Comité Colbert (which is ‘the voice of luxury in France). Yanis has brought embroidery to an entirely new level of textile sculptural artistry, merging embroidery with metal, silicone, and reclaimed materials. His pieces, often requiring hundreds of hours, push the boundaries of what textile art can be: scientific in process, poetic in effect. We are reminded at the end by Ambassador Karpetová that even we, as customers, continue this line of artisan appreciation, as we observe the flow of an artists hands' into our homes, or gifting to a loved one. The continuity of time and art, heritage and thought, all combined. These are the things of divine creation which we can contemplate. To stand amongst these curated pieces, visit De Mains De Maîtres 20th to 23rd of November, 10am to 6.30pm, no entrance fee at 19 Avenue de la Liberté.

In this podcast, we're breaking down one of the most confusing topics in all of car care — the difference between a waterless wash, a rinseless wash, a detail spray, a spray wax, a ceramic detail spray, and a true ceramic spray coating. There are so many products that seem to do the same thing, but each one actually serves a very different purpose — and if you don't understand those differences, you'll waste time, money, and effort without getting the results you want. I'll explain each one in simple, easy-to-understand terms — when to use them, what they actually do, and how to know which one is best for your situation. I'll also share the truth about why so many new products exist in the first place, and how companies made things confusing instead of just fixing the real problem: making ceramic sprays easier to use. By the end, you'll understand exactly what each product does, how they fit together, and why I created Tough As Shell — a ceramic spray that applies as easily as a detail spray but gives you the long-lasting protection of a true ceramic coating. Products I use and recommend in this video: Tough As Shell Ceramic Spray – https://jimbosdetailing.com/products/hard-as-shell-ceramic-spray The Super Soaper – https://jimbosdetailing.com/products/the-super-soaper All Dressed Up – https://jimbosdetailing.com/products/all-dressed-up Softer Than Soft Towels – https://jimbosdetailing.com/products/softer-than-soft-microfiber-towel Everyday Microfiber Towels – https://jimbosdetailing.com/products/everyday-microfiber All Blacked Out Applicators – https://jimbosdetailing.com/products/all-blacked-out-applicators Also available on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/JimbosDetailing

At the University of Nevada, Reno, the Ceramic Society opens its doors twice each semester, inviting students from all backgrounds to paint their own pottery. What starts as a fun, hands-on art project soon becomes much more, a fundraiser to help students attend the National Council on Education for the Ceramic Arts (NCECA). This event takes them far beyond the classroom to explore the world of ceramics, creativity, and community. Amanda Avilla reports.

Can you actually polish a ceramic coated car, or does that completely remove the coating? In this episode, I break down the truth about polishing coated paint and why any abrasion — no matter how light — can affect or remove your ceramic coating, regardless of brand. I'll also explain how this challenge led me to develop Picture Perfect Polish, a polish that finishes clean enough to apply a ceramic coating right over it without waiting hours or doing extra prep. That means if you ever need to correct a coated panel, fix a scratch, or spot-polish your paint, you can handle it fast and recoat immediately with The Gloss Boss or Tough As Shell. By the end, you'll know exactly how to safely polish, correct, and re-coat your ceramic coated vehicle without turning it into a weekend-long project.
