    Overview Is masonry a trade, a craft, or an art? After our conversation with Matthew Nunn, we’re firmly in the camp that it’s a blend of all three. Matt is a natural stone mason with over a decade of experience as a landscaper, hardscaper, and stone mason based in the New England area. Everyday he works with the locally-sourced stone to craft walls, stairs, paths, and outdoor environments that pay tribute to those built hundreds (sometimes even thousands) of years ago. On this episode, Matt and Bucket Talk host, Jeremy Perkins, discuss the old-school masonry trade, the process of building a moon gate, whether the Egyptian pyramids were built by aliens, and so much more. You don’t need a time machine or a history book for this episode, but we’re going to be diving into an ancient trade with centuries of backstory so buckle up. About From the Roman colosseum to the Egyptian pyramids to the Mayan temples, Matthew Nunn looks to the ancient stone masters for his everyday inspiration. As a natural stone mason based in New England, Matt uses old-school techniques to craft walls, stairs, paths, and outdoor environments out of locally sourced stone found in nearby farms and forests. He got his start in the trade after deciding to leave college after two years as a history major. Matt wanted to build something of his own, and he was heavily influenced by what he was learning in class and the historic dry stone walls he grew up around in Connecticut. To him, masonry is both an everyday trade and a dying art—it’s being seen as a luxury instead of necessity—so it takes a sharp eye for detail and a dedication to the traditional craft in order to keep it going in today’s society. Lucky for all of us, we’ve got guys like Matt.

    Austin Richardson

    Overview This episode is all about taking life by the horns. Professional bull rider and BRUNT-sponsored athlete, Austin Richardson has been on the PBR tour since 2019 and is one of the top riders in the world. He and Bucket Talk host, Jeremy Perkins, talk about how he got into bull riding, the tight knit community of riders, his training regimen, what the future holds after his bull riding career, and all the ins and outs of being a PBR rider. We’re not only excited to have Austin on the pod, but we’re pumped to have him repping the BRUNT name on his gear—tune in to hear his story and dive into the world of professional bull riding. About Most kids by the age of 13 are riding bikes and skateboards, but by then, our guy Austin Richardson was already taking on some of the toughest bulls in the world. Growing up outside of Dallas, he and his buddies got a shot at bull riding at an early age, and Austin showed he was natural from his very first ride. By 16 Austin was all in on bull riding and decided that he wanted to go pro. Luckily, he didn’t have to wait long, because at only 18 Austin got his PBR card and began competing on the biggest stages in the sport. Since then he’s become one of the most competitive riders in PBR, and he’s been a BRUNT-sponsored athlete for the last couple seasons. This year he was #1 in the world before a season-ending injury, but Austin’s recovery has gone according to plan and he’s on-track to be at full strength for next season. For a dude who’s only 24, Austin spits a lot of wisdom and speaks very humbly about his talents—if you’re looking for someone to root for in PBR, he’s your guy.

    Overview Between the rough conditions, the crazy heights, and everything in between, iron working might not be everyone—but it’s a perfect fit for our guy Travis Seifert. Though he’s been a union ironworker for seven years now, you can also find Travis on stage as Dirty Prescott Kids performing his unique blend of country, rap, and hip hop. He’s been supporting BRUNT since day one, and we were pumped to have him on the show to chat with Bucket Talk host, Jeremy Perkins, about how he balances life in the trades and life as a musician. If there was ever a guy to give you a good perspective on work-life balance, it’s our guy Travis. About When the sun’s up, you can find Travis Seifert working on buildings and bridges as a union ironworker. When the sun’s down, you can find him on stages as Dirty Prescott Kids playing a unique blend of country, rap, and hip hop. Proudly born and raised in Prescott, Wisconsin, Travis got his start in iron working seven years ago with the help of a friend. He’s been a musician for even longer, and even though Travis kept that side of him a secret from his iron brothers for a while (more on that in the episode), they’ve become some of his biggest supporters over the years. If you follow Travis on social media, you know his iron work and life as a musician keep him traveling around the country—and if you don’t follow him, you’re missing out on some of the funniest content on the internet. He’s just as much Waka Flocka Flame as he is Chris Stapleton and we’re pumped to have a guy like Travis in our corner.
