Genius Behind the PopSocket
What if a tangled pair of earbuds could change the world?
In this episode of Generations of Genius, we dive into the true story behind the PopSocket—an invention that started with two glued buttons and turned into a global phenomenon.
Meet inventor David Barnett, who didn’t give up when people laughed at his idea, when prototypes failed, or when life threw him unexpected challenges. Instead, he redesigned, reimagined, and rebuilt—over and over again.
This episode is all about persistence, problem-solving, and the power of starting small.
Because sometimes, the simplest ideas become the biggest game-changers.
Perfect for young inventors, educators, parents, and anyone who’s ever had an idea and wondered, “Could this actually work?”
