What happens when you listen in on Elliot Williams and Al Williams? You get a round up of the best of last week’s Hackaday posts, of course. The topics this week range from beer brewing to lightning protection, with a little bit of everything in between.

This week, many problems find solutions. Power drill battery dead? Your car doesn’t have a tire pressure monitor? Does your butter tear up your toast? You can find the answer to these problems, and more, on the Hackaday podcast.

For the can’t miss section, the guys are annoyed that Google wants to lock down their phones, and also talk about measuring liquid levels in outer space.
