Excellent interview with Chuck Peddle, originally aired in 2015 by The Amp Hour podcast. He was a true legend behind the personal computer, and unfortunately passed away last December [1][2].

From Wikipedia [3]: "Charles Peddle (Nov 25, 1937 – Dec 15, 2019) was an American electrical engineer best known as the main designer of the MOS Technology 6502 microprocessor, the KIM-1 single-board computer, and its successor, the Commodore PET personal computer, both based on the 6502."
