Listen "A computer from scratch with Jonathan Pallant "
Episode Synopsis
So I screwed up and didn't select my nice podcasting microphone for this episode and am instead speaking to you through that joke of a pinhole mic on my MacBook Pro.
The good news is that we're not here to listen to me, we're here to hear from the fascinating Jonathan Pallant: Town Mayor, retro computing enthusiast, and embedded systems engineer.
Jonathan Pallant, Town Mayor of St Ives, Cambridgeshire
