Enter the lab
The question is only the beginning.
Thursday Thought Experiment is a multi-round, question-based net built around unusual scenarios, difficult choices, and answers that may take the conversation somewhere unexpected.
The questions can be tough and sometimes mildly offensive, but they are always tongue-in-cheek. There are no wrong answers.
Hosted by Josh KE7WIL, Net Control Operator and Lead Lab Tech.
