The Tyler Woodward Project
The Tyler Woodward Project is a weekly show about how technology, media, and radio infrastructure shape the world around us, told through the lens of a broadcast engineer who grew up with dial-up internet, FM static, and the rise of the algorithm. Each episode unpacks the systems, signals, and corporate decisions behind how we communicate, listen, and connect, cutting through the marketing fluff and tech-industry spin. Expect sharp analysis, grounded storytelling, a touch of broadcast nostalgia, and clear explanations that make the technical human again.
