Brick 53 - TheBrickEducator LEGO Podcaster Interview May 02, 2021

Show notes

Most of my interviews are done with fellow LEGO designers and builders. This week I wanted to try something different. I got to talk with Jaime who created The LEGO Educator podcast. It's a great podcast centered not only around LEGO but how we can use it to educate people, no age requirement to learn! We had a lengthy conversation that was great to talk not only about how we started the podcasts but also what the LEGO community is for each of us and how it's made an impact on our lives.

Brick 52 - The Brickman (brickman.cinema) Designer Interview Apr 24, 2021

Show notes

The Brickman takes us back to the time of War. Now, LEGO doesn't prompt violence or war. But there is a small group (growing for sure!) that are huge fans of the blending the two together. The Brickman likes to collect and custom minifigures dedicated to the many wars through history. He also builds displays to all of them and brings history back to a life.

Brick 51 - Stein (Red_Spacecat) Designer Interview Apr 18, 2021

Show notes

This week we get to talk about Stein, a AFOL designer from the Netherlands. He came out of his dark ages and went right to building some truly stunning Sci-fi designs. Not only does he create micro LEGO builds but has created some builds large enough to hold a classic technic figure from the 80s! They all seem to be creations that could exist in this day and age and something to behold. His history with LEGO is just starting and how to see his work in the LEGO House.
