On this third installment of Adventures in Drywall we tackle articles from the early 2000's. We talk about his faithful dog Rowdy, his deep dive into mold and a bit about his good friend Joe Klaumenzer and a ton of other stuff. Adventures In Drywall is an article Kevin used to write for Walls & Ceilings Magazine spanning over 10 years and two hundred articles. We pluck out some gems and discuss the nature of these discussions. Kevin was a sales rep for Grabber for years and has a vast knowledge about the industry and instruments we use every day. Not only that, he's a good guy and my friend. I hope you enjoy listening to him as much as I did on this, the 64th episode of The Drywall Podcast

Jack has been working with me for over 9 years. We finally had a chance to just sit and talk. This is an intimate conversation between two co-workers that have known each other for a long time. I think that relationship shines through in our conversation. Jack talks about his experience with various plaster systems, working in a casino and dabbling in the stock market. Jacks a great guy and this conversation on the 58th episode of TDP will go down as one of my absolute favorites.
