Preston Jensen's Podcast

Preston Jensen’s Podcast is an eclectic weekly personal show centered on Preston’s life, interests, and immediate fascinations. It has the rhythm of someone making a record before the week slips away. The subjects can change quickly. A late-night recording may begin with getting the car washed before a family trip to the Omaha Zoo, then settle into Margo’s pool memories, restaurant hopes, and vacation excitement. Another episode turns into a family St. Patrick’s Day dispatch with Margo and Reggie, leprechaun traps, green shirts, milkshakes, cheesy beef pasta, and a World Baseball Classic night at home. The tone is casual and domestic. Preston often treats the microphone as a place to preserve the small details that would otherwise disappear. Family episodes feel especially archival, with the kids’ voices becoming part of the show’s long-running record. The podcast also has a hobbyist streak. Preston talks through drone operations, air traffic scanners, FlightRadar24, night photography, comets, northern lights, and the growing number of satellites visible overhead. He is curious rather than polished. When a topic grabs him, the episode follows that curiosity out loud, including questions about Starlink, satellite lifespans, and what the sky might look like in 2040. Sports sit naturally beside those interests. Valley City Highliner basketball, NFL free agency, the Raiders, the Ravens, and the Twins all appear through the lens of a fan trying to keep up with the week’s news. Travel is another recurring lane, especially family drives to Duluth, the North Shore, Omaha, hotels, hikes, pools, and restaurants. The show also makes room for practical guests, including Lucas Keller discussing crewfireworks.com, consumer fireworks, online ordering, and what buyers can preview before choosing. Even the electric vehicle material feels personal, framed through Preston’s interest in Slate Auto and the promise of an affordable EV truck. Nothing here behaves like a narrow industry show. It is broader, warmer, and more idiosyncratic: a running audio notebook of family, local life, tech curiosities, sports fandom, travel plans, and community conversations.
