Hi, I'm Lyndon Froese.

I'm a podcast host, writer, computer programmer and graphic designer. I used to be a radio personality on 680 CJOB (Winnipeg) and 770 CHQR (Calgary). Before that I published an online magazine. Before that I was a musician and recording engineer. I've performed in and written several musical theatre shows. When I was a kid I liked to draw pictures and was fascinated by the rules of sports.

I split my time between an off-the-grid cabin in Whiteshell Provincial Park, a house in Winnipeg's inner city and a small 1970s yacht.

My current focus is experiments in building online education tools.
