I have listened to this podcast for years. Always faithful listener and learned a lot from everyone on the show. Unfortunately, this new producer Andreas replaced Jeff when the company sold. The new guy has almost zero to contribute and it really takes away from the overall experience. I feel...Read full review »

I stumbled upon this podcast back in September and was immediately hooked. As someone who works in the trades, it can be difficult to find time to exchange ideas or collaborate on solutions to both the odd and the routine projects. These guys are entertaining and knowledgeable, and they aren’t...Read full review »

i have been listening to this for years and went back and picked up on the episodes that i missed. the information has always been great and even if there are a lot of things that I don’t need to hear about (I live in the Los Angeles basin) I always learn something. Well worth the time.

This podcast is a tremendous addition to all the great information and instruction in Fine Home Building Magazine - Informative, engaging and fun - essential for anyone lucky enough to have a home.

This was My first and favorite podcast. I would give 5 stars up until recently but the fact that the producer Jeff got chopped and replaced with a dude that has no idea about home building really was upsetting and takes away from the enjoyment of listening. I think the host needs to get back on...Read full review »

Lots of uncomfortable dead air. Most guests seem like they’re probably more comfortable behind a saw or a spreadsheet than a microphone.

Please edit out all of the awkward silences. Quick an easy edit. Love the show otherwise.

Used to be Great podcast. Company was sold and new video producer put himself “on” the podcast. He has 0 to contribute. Gives 1-2 sentences of no value then dead air. May be great at video production but has taken the fun out of the podcast. Dude save the show by stepping aside please.

The passion for home building and maintenance is contagious! Thanks all!
Mustnaglover via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/17/24
The information I got from this podcast was invaluable. But now that the pro talk has been discontinued I grab what tidbits I can from the legendary Mike Guertin. Sadly Patrick and Kiley have a horrible habit of cutting off and interrupting everyone with genuine knowledge. Unfortunately...Read full review »

Patrick seems like such a genuinely helpful guy, this is a great podcast to listen to! I really appreciate the experience that Mike and Ian bring too!

I’ve learned a lot listening to the crew on this podcast. Their discussions are fun and enlightening when it comes to home building. They answer your questions on air and are super helpful. Love them!
filmshooter01 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/25/23
I’ve been listening since the beginning. If you want to learn about homes this is the pod to listen to. While I miss Justin, Rob and Brian, Patrick has really grown into the job as host. The addition of Mike Guertin has been great. I hate to be mean but Kylie has to go.
Runt05 via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 02/03/23
Everyone on this podcast is so relateable. They all seem like normal hard working people who have actually done the tasks they discuss. I have been able to learn something from every episode that I have listened to, which is all of them!
funding is difficult via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/15/23
Stumbled on to you from Fine Woodworking. I have zero building skills or experience but learned a lot. For example I now know not to be embarrassed when my neighbors say I live in a styrofoam house. I had it built by a company that convinced me continuous pore concrete was a good idea. So I have...Read full review »

Love the podcast. The regular shows where the group discusses a range of topics are great, but my personal favorite is the pro talks. Specifically, when Patrick has on a the self employed carpenters who are going through it every day and we can relate to. Keep it up!
Nick Cyr via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/19/22
I appreciate the constant conversation on current smart building practices. Keep it up!
Porter802 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/19/22
This podcast is so great. The crew is informative and funny. I listen to each episode as soon at it comes out, i enjoy them so much. If you are at all interest in home building or maintenance this should be a go to podcast.

Would love to see Owain Harris on your Keep Craft Alive series. A very talented cabinet and furniture maker as well as an instructor at the Center for Furniture Craftsmanship. Would love to hear that interview!
Little Pink Houses via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/04/22
I’m sorry. This new guy with the “like” every other word makes the show unlistenable. Once you notice it, you can’t unhear it. Thankfully you name the hosts in the show description so I know which ones to skip
BallinOates via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/22/22
New listener with a growing appreciation of homebuilding. I’m learning more about the processes in all the trades by listening in.

I’m a homeowner preparing to work with an architect and builder to design and build our home from the ground up. I’ve been listening to this podcast to learn about building science in preparation for this project so I can make more educated decisions. I’m really enjoying it and learning a...Read full review »

Just started listening but so far the show is excellent. Very relevant for me as a contractor
James 615 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/13/21
Great show ! I have learned so much info on this podcast. It’s another tool to add to the tool box.
spikenew22 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/19/21
This is my favorite podcast, partly because I’m I nerd for pretty much all things building related, but mostly because it feels like sitting down with a group of friends and mulling over building related problems and solutions. The humility of all involved makes it very welcoming to anyone...Read full review »

The FHB podcast expanded my knowledge and let me to research some things I had no idea I wanted/needed to know. Not only is the banter fun, but the topics and guests are full of information pertinent to builder, remodelers, diy’ers alike.
Charlygarcia808 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/24/21
Please check out FHB. This group has an awesome knowledge base and experience!! They’re very open to questions emailed in (they answered mine in traditional FHB fashion, aka evaluated my idea, had their own, mixed in with some quirky humor bits). The group feeds off each other and they just seem...Read full review »

I’m a big fan. There’s a lot of great info for homeowners like myself but I think conscientious tradespeople enjoy the show too. The host (Hey Patrick!) is really pragmatic and knowledgeable and the other rotating hosts are great as well with varied backgrounds and no obnoxious egos. It makes me...Read full review »

I regularly listen to 20 or 30 podcasts a week while driving and working (remodeling, finish carpentry, deck building, historical preservation in the Berkeley, CA area). This is probably the one I look forward to the most. I became a full time carpenter a couple years ago after a decade in the...Read full review »

I’m far from being a home builder, but I always come away with some valuable information after each episode. Great show
Bing0808 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/03/21
I only recently discovered this podcast and have listened to a few recent ones and have gone back to episode 1 and am listening to them all (on episode 6 right now). Good stuff!

I am currently in the middle of completely redoing a 1970’s ranch style house in south Texas and love listening to this podcast as I work. I am doing all the work and will be.

A diverse mix of remodeling, construction and building industry info.

Now I can’t even listen to the FHB podcast without being reminded of politics. Thanks a lot!
Leroy Barnes via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/25/21
I will no longer be listening. I fail to see what elections and events taking place on Capitol Hill have to do with homebuilding techniques and principles. I wish you well.
jomermcklanski via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/22/21
This is a great builder's podcast. The hosts all seem well versed in the building trades, and aren't afraid to give their honest opinions. Good job folks!Read full review »

I found your podcast on my suggestions and listened while cleaning my shop. I liked the question and answer format and was impressed by the knowledge demonstrated by the three participants. I have subscribed and will work through the backlog. Thanks for the good effort.
Dave the Pete via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/11/21
Keep up the good work, Team FHB! Renovation subjects are my favorite because the biggest challenge to reducing America’s energy consumption is “what to do to existing, older homes”.....as in “how to air seal older homes and not turn them into mold and rot factories” (which is a great subject for...Read full review »

The FHB podcast is my favorite building podcast, hands down. When I began listening I knew nothing about how buildings work. Now two years later I also have an FHB subscription, I’m planning a small but very ambitious self-build with PH level performance, and I’m renovating my current house with...Read full review »

First of all, Patrick sounds just like Nardwuar. If you’re not familiar, do yourself a favor and look up Nardwuar, it’s uncanny! The revolving cast is very informative, and they have awesome chemistry with one another. A must listen!!
