Episode 26: Our Second Annual Episode!
Brandon and Matt talk about all the things they've done while they were away. And we made it to a whole year of podcasting! To kick off year two the right way, we have a project that we will Design, Plan, Budget, and execute in a timely fashion. Let's see how well this resolution holds up. Thanks for tuning in!
Episode 25: If You Build It (Part 1)
Brandon and Matt are discussing house building this episode. Brandon has been through the process, and Matt would like to do the same one day. Perhaps it will be before everyone starts buying real estate on the moon . . .
Episode 24: Sledge Hammering
Time to sit down and tune in to your favorite podcast. Whenever it is you are able to enjoy this episode, make sure it's before you start demolishing your kitchen/bathroom/living room with a 100lb Sledge Hammer. We have some valuable advice (as we always do).
P.S. A prize goes to whoever can find the 100lb sledge hammer I was talking about. I don't think it actually exists, and it's probably impractical anyway.
Episode 23: Hofstadter's Law
This video took longer to edit even though I took into account that it would take longer than I expected. In this episode, Brandon and Matt encourage you to be realistically optimistic and expect the unexpected. Also we watch some footage from a favorite channel of Matt's: Homemade Home. Jeremiah (or whatever his name is) shows us some DIY in a day as well as some mad home improvement skills (do not try them at home without the camera on).
Episode 22: Everything's a Problem
In this episode, Brandon drops some knowledge on us. According to a study, $420+ have been spent on DIY in the last year, and there may have been some rules broken. Find out how you can keep from shelling out cash for unnecessary fines and, even worse, going to jail!

Episode 21: Designing with Brandon and Matt
In this episode, Matt shows us some online tools for designing your next project. Also, Brandon shares his love for excel, and his undying hatred for all things plumbing (and this week's fail videos only add to that).
Episode 20: Fails All Over the World
Today, we start with a clip form "Canada's Worst Handyman"; a snip that inspired Matt to preserve the integrity of his walls and all walls around the world. And speaking of around the world, do you remember the conversations in previous episodes about DIY restrictions in the UK? Well, it's about time for us to get to the bottom of it. And Finally, we close with fails and wins from right here in our own back yard.

Episode 10: Caulk Taulk
Want to seal off your corners from unwanted moisture in your bathroom? How about seal some of those cracks between the baseboards and the wall to create more continuity in the design? If you said yes to either of these, Brandon and Matt have the episode for you. Come join us for some serious Caulk Talk: the unsung hero of many a DIY project. (Also, they would ask that you please keep the "That's What She Said" jokes to a minimum.)
