Before the internet and smartphones, there was one invention that made it all possible: the printing press. In this episode, I dive into how Gutenberg’s 15th-century machine revolutionized the world — turning handwritten scrolls into mass-produced books, boosting literacy, fueling revolutions, and changing the course of human history.

Find out:

• Why monks used to copy books by hand (yep, for real)
• How wine helped invent modern printing
• What the printing press has in common with today’s digital tech
• And why it absolutely deserves a spot in my Top 10 Inventions

Laugh. Learn. Print.
