The show’s host is Mike Rugnetta. I got a tattoo of God. You can’t see it but it’s everywhere. If I seem out of it, do the math. I was put on earth. And then you were, making up your feet as you went along. New thinspo clanks the spank bank. New emoticon makes a Holocene.

Stephen Carlsen died in 2025. His family knew vaguely that he had worked on creating the file format TIFF, but it was his nephew, Nathan Carlsen, who kicked off a quest for the full story. This week, senior producer Hans Buetow talks with Nathan about his oral history project to document his uncle’s work, and we hear a fascinating conversation that Nathan had with Donovan Cameron, a First Nation GIS specialist who uses the TIFF in unexpected ways. – Become a Never Post member at https://www.neverpo.st/ for access to extended and bonus segments! –
