#023: Groping Grover

Among the usual random conversations, today has emphasis on 3D Printing! You see those two figurines in the episode photo (available on Soundcloud or Instagram)? Those are 3D printed statues created by scanning the subjects in 5 minutes. And that, according to Hashim Al-Zain, is the simplest of things he can make.

We talk science, startups, and everything in between and unrelated.
