2022/12/21

Today we’re re-sharing an episode we did earlier this year with Jordan McRae. Jordan is the CEO of Mobilus Labs and one of the inventors of MobiWAN, a communication device that enables users to hear and speak through skull vibrations. MobiWAN was one of TIME Magazine’s 100 Most Significant Inventions of 2021. As construction people know, communication on the job site is immeasurably important. It’s also often a serious challenge. Simple, concise communication can be the difference between life and

The Most Powerful Force In The World | 5 Minute Friday

Construction Brothers ·

2022/12/16

It’s not what you’d expect. Despite all of his work in physics, Einstein is said to have said that the most powerful force in the universe is compound interest. This certainly makes sense in the world of finance, but it goes far beyond that. It’s about slow-burn, long-process growth on top of growth on top of growth. Its power reaches into personal lives, business lives, creative pursuits–it reaches everything. We discuss how we’ve seen this with the podcast–and how satisfying it was to see

Rob is full of insight about the current state of safety practices in the construction industry. Before we get around to helmets and hard hats, we chat about the Ford Lightning. Tyler shares about his recent experience driving a rented Ford Lightning for a few hundred miles on a trip. We discuss self-driving

The Pain of Discipline OR The Pain of Regret | 5...

Construction Brothers ·

2022/12/09

Discipline or regret. It’s one or the other. Tyler shares his morning routine and the challenges of consistency, and we discuss how much harder it is to start a new routine than to maintain an existing one. Life, especially family life, doesn’t lend itself to consistency. Discipline is uncomfortable for a time, but regret can last a long, long time. Discipline=freedom. By the way, if you’re wondering who Blippi and Meekah are (from Tyler’s morning Dad routine), you can check them out

Man, it’s been a long few years. Let’s allow ourselves to step out of the weeds for a minute. Today, Heady Eddie shares the concept of benevolent detachment and a few other insights from the book Resilient. The message from that book? Sometimes you need to let it go. You can’t do it on your own. Sometimes you need to hand your situation off to something greater than yourself. Give yourself the favor of giving up the problem–not surrendering to apathy but allowing yourself to rest. Step

Preventing Suicide (feat. Kevin Sell)

Construction Brothers ·

2022/11/30

5,229 construction workers died by suicide in 2016 (the last year for which CDC numbers are available). The industry category of “construction and extraction” has a higher rate of suicide than any other industry category. That’s why suicide is a topic worthy of discussion on a construction-related podcast. That’s why we’re talking to Kevin Sells today. People who aren’t involved in construction might wonder why in world those numbers are so high. If you are in the industry, however, you

Frustration can eat you alive. As Dad used to say, “Don’t let ‘em get your goat.” Eddie shares that he has yet to be killed by any of the countless frustrations that have distracted him at various points over the years. There’s always a way to figure something out. Very rarely will a single day’s frustration still be here in a couple weeks. Allow your “That bothers me” threshold to grow as you gain experience.

We've heard it a million times: Treat others as you would like to be treated. Today we discuss how to balance the classic moral principle of The Golden Rule with an age-old business maxim: The customer is always right. In the service industry, employees and managers often face challenges when attempting to implement the practice of treating others as you’d like to be treated. Tyler reflects on a tough job from his younger years, and we discuss how his manager could have handled the process

You could call it an “agile mobile robot” or a “quadraped.” Or you could just call it a robot dog. But it’s more than just a robot dog, and it’s more than just an agile quadraped.

Some people call it by name, and some people refer to it less directly, but anxiety is a real thing. And it can keep you from doing your best work and living a full life. The experiences we describe in this episode might seem totally unfamiliar to some of you. But we’d bet that some of you are going to find yourself saying, “Hmm. Yup.
