OK, they are not really motherboards, they are just small printed circuit boards with simple projects for kids as part of our STEM week projects.
These projects are typically under $10 and vary in scope and complexity.
We tried a clock and a musical board.
The first word I have to describe these is SMALL!
Tiny parts, hard to read and difficult to understand, but isn't that the point? To challenge young minds with projects that make them think. Projects that build on deductive reasoning and get them off their phones for a few minutes a day.
These simple projects and a less than $10 soldering iron will keep kids busy for hours.
It is a good entry project into electrical engineering, helping kids understand basic components and how the boards are assembled.
At one time back in the 70's you could walk into any Radio Shack store in any mall and get these projects, but they are now out of sight and out of mind.
We wanted to make parent aware that these kits are available online and serve as important catalysts in steering careers toward engineering.
The more your kids know, the stringer they are.
We have shown a few items in STEM week and this was Mr Dog Poop's favorite because he was personal friends with Thomas Edison back when he invented electricity.
As the comedy podcast goes... there are no fibs to big to tell.
It is important to entertain in order to educate and while educating people is not the focus of the man show, we figured what not for a few days, what can it hurt?
Beer & Donuts - A Cooking and Review of the Express Mini Donut Maker Oh so long ago when we decided to make donuts. Beer and donuts we called it and the premise was to make donuts on our desks while live on the air and drinking a load of beer and whisky. Well, we did just that with a mini donut maker, so pancake and cake mixes and a whole lot of mess! Mr Dog poop takes out a 1950's hand mixer and blends that cake batter into a frenzy as Jeff Macolino just keeps eating the donuts before they are even finished. Neither of these guys should be allowed anywhere near a donut making operation. But nonetheless, they power though an episode getting burned and eating what they called donuts but more resembled a 2 grade cooking project where more batter ends up on the table than ...read more
The Bidens set the internet on fire by ordering the same dish on date night in Washington DC. The debate is fierce and people are outraged that they both ordered the same thing rather than getting 2 meals and sharing. The same meal supporters get into a heated debate with the reddit crowd and the rest is history. Over one billion down votes for Biden's choice. American are finding it harder to buy beer and seem to be drinking less. The beer companies are marketing wrong, the beer industry is in trouble and the man show may have to switch to Russian vodka if the beer runs out. The economy is failing under Biden and people are losing their extra SNAP payments right when the cost of food is highest. The guys discuss how this will increase crime, promote gang formation in Tampa as families struggle to feed their ...read more
Preserving food for the Zombie Apocalypse with a $25 Vacuum Packer Can a $25 vacuum sealer do the job. In this episode the guys manage to show their complete incompetence in operating a kitchen vacuum sealer. They just can't make it work. Is the the machine or the operators? It turns out, it was the operators and their stubborn man attitudes in failing to read the directions. Mr Dog Poop brings out a larger commercial type sealer and shows how it is done, man style. They try to preserve some severed hands, feet etc. But it looks like these guys need some help if either is going to survive the zombie apocalypse. Unless you can survive solely by drinking beer and being stupid. Since that is not likely, these guys may be SOL. But at least you can watch their incompetence live on The Man Show Monday through Friday ...read more
Reviewing the $45 NutriChef Air Fryer Roaster Oven, Bake, Grill, Steam, Broil, Roaster with Beer! The live show today kicks off with an Air Fryer that retails for just $45 and uses the older design of a glass dish allowing you t see the food cooking. This design was out long before these devices were called "Air Fryers" they were called cyclonic cooking action, but for today's brain dead millennials that would be way too much to say or understand. So they simplified it to Air Fryer. Unfortunately for millennials this does not come with an app or the ability to order via Uber Eats. You are going to have to cook something yourself with this device. But fear not, the guys show you how to heat up leftovers, cook raw food and mix fish with chicken in the same oven. Overall, this device was the best reviewed so ...read more
