The weekly conversation about electronics and the people who build it.

The Amp Hour went on air in 2010, when Chris Gammell and Dave Jones decided the electronics world needed a show that sounded like two engineers actually talking, not a polished broadcast. The format was simple and has barely changed since: grab a coffee or a chocolate, hit record, and follow the conversation wherever it goes: an hour-long(ish) weekly show recorded “live” without editing or a mute button.

Hundreds of episodes later, it’s become a fixture in the engineering community: equal parts news, war stories, career talk, and long-form interviews with the designers, founders, and authors who shaped the field. Guests have ranged from working PCB designers to Nobel laureates.

The mission is the same as it was in the first episode: stay curious about the world of electronics, keep building, and keep current.
