Modern Craftsman is more than just a podcast. It’s a community. A hub for those in this industry to promote excellence, education, knowledge and respect. To share what they’ve done right and what they’ve done wrong. To talk about building, life, leadership, mental health and everything in between. And we want to partner with vendors, brands and people that share the same goals: to make people better, to make the industry better and to advocate for a better life in the trades.

Cheers
Loving your podcast fellas. Good insight from two different ends of the building spectrum.
@ wildedesignandconstruction
Greetings from Australia!
G’day Nick and Tyler,
Another great podcast today!
You’ve just opened my world to Spencer Lewis. I though listening to The Modern Craftsman Podcast was a rabbit hole as I go way back listening to all your episodes, now I’m diving down the Insider Carpentry YouTube rabbit hole!
Keep up the banter, the amazing knowledge bombs yourselves and your guests are kind enough to share.
Great work!
Thanks,
Evan.

Beast construction/business podcast
I’ve probably only listened to 50 or so episodes, but I love this podcast, it’s in my top 3. The guys are genuine, honest and always trying to improve.
I’m only a lead carpenter in Australia, and although they often talk about business, I find it still helpful to me as an employee / lead carpenter. A lot of the tactics / strategies still apply.
I also put my boss onto this podcast, and now he’s gone back to the Ep. 1, he really enjoys it too.
Ps. I miss John
