Josh & Jade speak with members of the Esquimalt Atom Smashers robotics team, including team captain Colin, head of business and communications Parker, and Alex, who leads the team’s prototyping work, along with Tina O’Keefe, Esquimalt High School’s robotics coach.

The Atom Smashers are fresh off a major achievement, earning the right to represent British Columbia at the World Championships in Texas. We talk about what the team built, what the judges were looking for, and why fundraising is now the final hurdle between Esquimalt and the championships.
