When you’re building a custom home, some materials ("muhterials") you can fudge a little — and some you absolutely cannot mess up. In this episode, we focus on the big-ticket, high-stakes items where precision matters most: concrete for your foundation, framing lumber for your walls, and any custom-made pieces that you can’t just grab off the shelf. We’ll cover: - How to calculate concrete volume so you’re not paying for last-minute truckloads (or stuck with a useless extra pile) - Why getting framing material counts right can save you time, money, and headaches down the road - The special planning that goes into custom windows, doors, and built-ins - Pro tips for double-checking your numbers before placing that order Because in home building, a little extra math now can save you thousands later — and keep your project on schedule.

Jaime’s back at it—this time debating one of (his) life’s greatest dilemmas (at the moment): how many trucks is too many, and can you have a work truck and a family truck? N ew work truck smell or old truck reliability . Is it worth trading in the squeaky seat and mystery stain for a shiny touchscreen and a payment plan? Or do the old rigs still have more heart left to give...despite all the quirks? But wait, it gets better—because once you’ve got your truck, where are you gonna park it? Jaime dives into the ultimate showdown: carport vs. pole barn vs. shed . Do you go simple, go big, or just build one of each and call it a day? From truck dilemmas to storage logistics, it’s a full-throttle episode of opinions, tangents, side stories, and just a little envy of people with dry tools and covered parking.

In this episode, Jaime sits down with his brother and longtime business partner, Erik Perkins, for an honest, humorous, and heartfelt conversation about life behind the scenes at Perkins Builder Brothers. From growing up in the Appalachian mountains to becoming YouTube sensations in the world of home building, the brothers reflect on their journey — both as family and as leaders of a thriving construction business. Listeners will hear stories from their childhood, how they’ve handled the pressure of growing a YouTube channel alongside quality custom homes, and the challenges of balancing family, work, and friends. Whether you're a builder, a fan of their videos, or someone who just appreciates real talk between brothers, this episode delivers laughs, insights, and a deep look into what it means to build a life — not just a house.

From deep dives on "Weed-eating" vs. "Weed-whacking", how and when to sharpen those lawnmower blades, Lines...circles...or checkerboards? But there is always a god tangent or ten to keep things interesting!

Whether you're a weekend warrior with a push mower or a pro with a trailer full of gear, we’ve got the blades and banter for you.

I know we mentioned a potential guest being on this week, but we decided to go ahead and record the follow-up to THE ACCIDENT episode with THE DEVICE episode. In this podcast, we will let Jaime talk all about his hand after the accident and how he came about being introduced to a prosthetic device. Jaime will go into full detail about the Naked Prosthetics device ( https://www.npdevices.com/), all the way down to the tiny screws that hold it all together! He will talk pros and cons and everything he has been able to do to push the device to what seems like limitless capabilities. We hope this conversation can help anyone who has been questioning exploring a prosthetic device like Jaime's for themselves, a loved one, friend, or just anyone they know who might have been affected by a life-altering accident.
