\"Steve<\/a><\/p>\n

Steve Wozniak is known for many things, but did you know that in addition to co-founding Apple, he also invented the universal remote control?* In this podcast interview, I dig into that story and more as we talk about Woz\u2019s personal history with Television.<\/em><\/small><\/p>\n

Hi everybody \u2014 Benj here. I\u2019m still trying to work out the kinks of launching a new podcast and a website at the same time, so I hope you can bear with me as I sort things out. The design of the site will likely improve drastically over time.<\/p>\n

Our first show is here. The guest is Steve Wozniak<\/a> talking about Television. I thought it would be fun to pick a unifying topic and discuss it throughout his career. In this case, Woz’s love and knowledge of television both allowed him to design Apple’s first two signature products (the Apple I and Apple II), but also to later create a company called CL9 that pioneered universal remote controls with the CORE remote<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Special thanks to Steve for doing this.<\/p>\n

I\u2019ve also prepared original music for the show, as I intend it to be a venue for some of my musical adventures as well (There\u2019s an original Steve Wozniak song near the end of this show, for example).<\/p>\n

Please let me know what you think. Hope you enjoy the show.<\/p>\n

*Engineers at GE also invented a universal remote control around the same time, and Woz’s product, which was much more powerful, hit the market two years later.<\/em><\/small><\/p>\n
