Oklahoma scrapper
I ran into a scrap life podcast when I was getting ready to cut a spread of heavy melt. Early in the mornings I like to listen to business savvy inspiring podcast to help me get ready for my day and I couldn’t be more happy what I heard. I have been in the scrap world my whole life not just my whole working career hence why Bretts podcast really hit home. What he’s doing about getting different people from across the country and different aspects that makes the scrap world go around is next level. I have been in every aspect of scrap life and still consider myself a student always willing to learn to perfect my craft. Keep doing what you’re doing Brett and one day I might have a chance to be on the podcast. It’s in our blood!!!
Scrap On
I’ve been a hobby scrap enthusiast for over ten years now; but am now in the very early stages of transitioning out of public education and into owning my first yard. I’m doing everything I can to soak up whatever information I can find. I can’t say enough how much I appreciate the industry insight that Brett’s podcast has introduced to me. I stumbled on to his podcast, and this little nugget has led me to all kinds of invaluable resources. Thank you for doing what you do, and putting it out there for folks like me! Thanks, MoMetal
