  • Can’t hear it anymore

    Love this show and have listened for a few years. For some reason over the past few months it’s become a whisper show and the audio is too low to hear while doing any type of physical labor.

  • Techo- Bloc Philly

    Got the opportunity to listen to Josh live on the hardscaper growth at the Techo-Bloc Philly Showcase. He has great insights to what this industry requires for growth and leading your team to a unified vision so you can scale at any level. If you haven’t listened to Josh I recommend you do it will help you in all aspects of your life.

  • If your IN this industry, this needs to be IN your ear.

    I caught one of these podcasted bacaue I knew someone on it. After listening to one episode, I binged them all. Josh has a way blending personal growth and industry topics that are easy to relate and have value. A chilled elixir of Joe Rogan meets Marty Grunder with a side of David Goggins if you will. Definitely worth a listen if you recognize one of these name.

Why Working Until You Can't Anymore Is a Terrible Retirement Strategy for Contractors w/ Financial Wealth Advisor, Jonathan Carpenter
Q: What would you say to someone who has been putting off planning for retirement for years?
Start now. It's not about having all the answers tomorrow, but about beginning the process, noting goals, and making adjustments over time as you learn more and as life changes.
Why Some Contractors Are Thriving in This Market While Others Are Fighting to Survive w/ Financial Expert, Greg Crabtree
Q: How should contractors respond to headwinds like inflation and tariffs?
Incorporate flexible pricing provisions (fuel/material surcharges), communicate changes early, and renegotiate terms as needed with the customer rather than absorbing unexpected costs; ensure contracts have contingency clauses and clarity on change orders.
Why Some Contractors Are Thriving in This Market While Others Are Fighting to Survive w/ Financial Expert, Greg Crabtree
Q: What are the successful businesses doing differently right now?

Your Past Doesn't Get to Decide Who You Become w/ Frank Ingrassia
Q: What was the turning point that helped you decide to change your life?
