    Episode 100 !!

    Well, everybody we've hit a hundred along the way. We've laughed. We've ran it. We've even evolved and learned a lot in this one. We pause to reflect on where we started, what's changed and well, where construction in the trades and this podcast are headed. We've built something we're all pretty proud of, but we're not done. Send us your weird, your outcast, your curious minds. We are your community.

    Special Episode - What the Dork!!

    On this episode of the Construction Dorks, we sit down and give you a sort of recap of where we've been for the year. We've all been working, we've all been going to shows, we've all been talking about some of the things that are really at the center of the industry, private equity, consolidation, M&A, data centers, and some new understandings of the way that we manufacture. It was a great conversation, and we hope you enjoy it.

    Episode 97 – The FreeTO Project Part Deux

    On this episode of the Construction Dorks, we continue what we’re calling the FreeTO project. Real conversations with current and future CTOs to pull back the curtain on what it really takes to be a construction CTO: the wins, the losses, the lessons learned, and the stories nobody tells you going in. For this one, though, it was just the Dorks. We needed to get our rants out before we make room for the guests. So this is one of those..

    Episode 96 – How to CTO

    In this episode of the Construction Dorks, we kick off a multi part series on CTO's. What is actually involved in that job? How do you get there and what is important to learn along the way. In this first episode, we just wanted to queue up the idea and talk a little bit about what being a CTO means to each of us, and why we think it's an important topic. For today's construction companies. It was a good conversation, so thanks for tuning in.

    Episode 95 - AI, Everybody's Talking about it

    AI, Everybody's Talking about it. With that in mind, we welcome Hugh Seaton from TheLink.AI to discuss the SMACNA AI Leadership program, what he’s seeing in the AI market tea leaves, and how we all might be getting more stupider. We had a great time deep seeking a deep dive on a topic that isn’t going away anytime soon. Enjoy!

    Episode 94 - Preppers

    This is episode 94 of the Dorks and we’re calling it Preppers. Trent, Jeff, and I sat down with AI Jon until he glitched out and discussed some of the hot topics we’re hearing through the industry here in Q1 of 2025. Will we need a go bag this year? What might be coming to the industry in terms of tech or turmoil? Who knows but we threw plenty of WAGS out there. I hope you enjoy!
