We've reached our bicent...episodial?!

01:58 - Reminiscing
Today we’re looking back over more than three years of producing the CBP. Here are some our initial thoughts:

-Our intro is still rocking a 2019 vibe.

-Mom is usually pretty supportive, but… There’s an episode out there somewhere from those very first episodes, and we would really love for them to stay buried deep in whatever pile of digital debris. Tyler poses a challenge: If we get to 100 ratings on Apple Podcasts within two months of today’s episode, he’ll share this embarrassment.

-Tyler flashes back to the studio setup for those earliest episodes: Just a couple dudes and a big-screen TV.

-Eddie recalls and early episodes with Pete DuMont, Clifton Harness, and more.

09:08 - Whitey Tighties, Pete Rose and Cannibalistic Hamsters
Eddie gives a shout-out to his favorite episode title. Our middle brother, Andy, joined us for this episode, which consisted of brotherly recollections. Poor guy passed out quite often.

We cringe as we look back at our early rhythms and quirks. Tough stuff.

11:48 - Favorite episodes
Here are a few that we look back on most fondly:

-Going Analog in a Digital World - (feat. Eric Reinholdt of the 30x40 Design Workshop on Youtube)
-Eric Anderson and his leg lamp
-Todd Dawalt (who has his own podcast, Construction Leading Edge) and our discussion about the labor shortage as we headed into the pandemic
-David Smigel and an early conversation about Starlink on jobsites
-Roy Underhill of The Woodwright’s Shop
-Lego episode
-The House that Sears Built
-The RFI Blockchain
-Matt Byrd of the Reality Capture Network
-Donnie Williams and our conversation about supply chains

19:15 - Surprise lessons
We spend some time exploring what we’ve learned.

Eddie shares that he’d thought he had the solutions that the construction industry needs. He has seen his understanding expand and has gained empathy.

Tyler discusses leadership and the constraints that make it hard for higher-ups to do things the way that younger, less-experienced people think things ought to be done.

We express our appreciation for the sometimes contentious discussions. We’ve seen growth result from the open exploration of points of disagreement.

28:00 - Echo chambers
Tyler dumps some thoughts about people pitching themselves as guests in order to discuss the fact that the industry is slow to accept technology. He disagrees.

Eddie lists technologies that have been readily adopted because they increase our productivity and make us look more competent. He acknowledges that he’d look like an old man if he’d step back onto a residential-construction jobsite today with tools that didn’t exist when he was working in that world.

We discuss the program features and the types of content that we’ve chosen to leave behind.

39:43 - Megaphone message
We share our thoughts for the industry. They’re simple:
-Eddie: Treat others the way you’d like them to treat you.
-Tyler: Say thanks.
