00:00:27,761 --> 00:00:29,062

but there's got to be

 

10

00:00:29,062 --> 00:00:30,430

something out there.

 

11

00:00:30,430 --> 00:00:30,830

It doesn't.

 

12

00:00:30,830 --> 00:00:32,165

00:00:32,165 --> 00:00:33,933

The award winning Wayne Highlander.

 

18

00:00:47,580 --> 00:00:49,249

You like that, don't you?

 

19

00:00:49,249 --> 00:00:52,252

Yeah.

 

20

00:00:54,354 --> 00:00:55,321

Just one Yeah.

 

21

00:00:55,321 --> 00:00:55,822

Really?

 

22

00:00:55,822 --> 00:00:58,825

You've done about 100.

 

23

00:01:07,534 --> 00:01:10,036

I'm really just holding you back,

 

24

00:01:10,036 --> 00:01:10,770

You would have won

 

25

00:01:10,770 --> 00:01:13,773

so many of those awards without me.

 

26

00:01:14,174 --> 00:01:17,143

I want to do one by myself.

 

27

00:01:17,143 --> 00:01:18,211

That's like your wife saying,

 

28

00:01:18,211 --> 00:01:19,946

you know what? This year's vacation.

 

29

00:01:19,946 --> 00:01:21,214

I think I want to go alone.

 

30

00:01:22,248 --> 00:01:25,251

Oh, okay.

 

31

00:01:25,385 --> 00:01:26,820

You know, I have an uncle.

 

32

00:01:26,820 --> 00:01:29,823

And then that went on vacation to,

 

33

00:01:30,490 --> 00:01:33,193

to the Caribbean and went scuba diving.

 

34

00:01:33,193 --> 00:01:34,294

They got a super scuba

 

35

00:01:34,294 --> 00:01:37,297

diving instructor by a Caribbean guy.

 

36

00:01:37,697 --> 00:01:40,700

The next year, my uncle couldn't go.

 

37

00:01:41,134 --> 00:01:41,634

Well,

 

38

00:01:41,634 --> 00:01:42,735

that was probably the worst decision

 

39

00:01:42,735 --> 00:01:45,071

of his entire life, because his wife went

 

40

00:01:45,071 --> 00:01:46,172

and is now and married

 

41

00:01:46,172 --> 00:01:47,740

to that scuba diving instructor

 

42

00:01:47,740 --> 00:01:50,743

in, in the Caribbean.

 

43

00:01:53,079 --> 00:01:53,980

That was in a movie.

 

44

00:01:53,980 --> 00:01:56,983

You know.

 

45

00:01:57,117 --> 00:02:00,019

That happened in a movie, too.

 

46

00:02:00,019 --> 00:02:01,988

Yeah.

 

47

00:02:01,988 --> 00:02:04,991

I think the name of the movie was.

 

48

00:02:04,991 --> 00:02:07,994

Along Came Paulie.

 

49

00:02:09,462 --> 00:02:12,465

Was Ben Stiller.

 

50

00:02:13,066 --> 00:02:16,069

And,

 

51

00:02:16,736 --> 00:02:19,739

Jennifer Aniston.

 

52

00:02:20,039 --> 00:02:21,541

And his wife.

 

53

00:02:21,541 --> 00:02:23,109

That was it with the scuba diver.

 

54

00:02:23,109 --> 00:02:25,278

She was in, Will and Grace.

 

55

00:02:25,278 --> 00:02:28,281

She was grace and Will and Grace.

 

56

00:02:29,449 --> 00:02:30,483

Yeah.

 

57

00:02:30,483 --> 00:02:33,853

And Debra messing being there.

 

58

00:02:35,088 --> 00:02:36,122

There you go.

 

59

00:02:36,122 --> 00:02:39,926

Debra messing and her and her.

 

60

00:02:39,926 --> 00:02:42,362

And, the guy just got Ben Stiller.

 

61

00:02:42,362 --> 00:02:45,365

Got married on their honeymoon.

 

62

00:02:46,065 --> 00:02:48,134

She's going to town with the, scuba

 

63

00:02:48,134 --> 00:02:51,137

diver instructor.

 

64

00:02:52,472 --> 00:02:54,674

Going to town.

 

65

00:02:54,674 --> 00:02:57,677

Wow.

 

66

00:02:58,478 --> 00:03:00,480

He's.

 

67

00:03:00,480 --> 00:03:02,949

She came back and paid for

 

68

00:03:02,949 --> 00:03:05,952

that guy's ticket to move to America.

 

69

00:03:07,153 --> 00:03:08,388

What?

 

70

00:03:08,388 --> 00:03:11,391

What year did this happen?

 

71

00:03:12,025 --> 00:03:12,926

Okay.

 

72

00:03:12,926 --> 00:03:14,127

This movie came out

 

73

00:03:14,127 --> 00:03:17,130

in, I would say mid 90s.

 

74

00:03:18,198 --> 00:03:19,332

Long came Polly.

 

75

00:03:19,332 --> 00:03:19,999

I think it was.

 

76

00:03:19,999 --> 00:03:21,267

I think that was the name of the movie

 

77

00:03:21,267 --> 00:03:22,702

Along Came Polly.

 

78

00:03:22,702 --> 00:03:25,238

Funny movie.

 

79

00:03:25,238 --> 00:03:26,406

Yeah, I give it a seven.

 

80

00:03:26,406 --> 00:03:27,840

The Johnson ranking.

 

81

00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:30,843

Give it a seven. Yeah.

 

82

00:03:31,110 --> 00:03:33,012

All right, let's stay on movies.

 

83

00:03:33,012 --> 00:03:33,780

How was your fourth?

 

84

00:03:33,780 --> 00:03:36,783

How was your 4th of July?

 

85

00:03:36,916 --> 00:03:37,817

It was fantastic.

 

86

00:03:37,817 --> 00:03:40,220

We had about 30 people over the house,

 

87

00:03:40,220 --> 00:03:41,955

Nice.

 

88

00:03:41,955 --> 00:03:43,756

you know, the circle of life.

 

89

00:03:43,756 --> 00:03:46,259

It's when we first moved to Tennessee,

 

90

00:03:46,259 --> 00:03:47,193

but a lot of friends,

 

91

00:03:47,193 --> 00:03:47,460

you know,

 

92

00:03:47,460 --> 00:03:48,094

a lot of their kids

 

93

00:03:48,094 --> 00:03:51,097

are, like, 15 years old in that range.

 

94

00:03:51,297 --> 00:03:52,565

And now all them kids

 

95

00:03:52,565 --> 00:03:53,466

have little two year

 

96

00:03:53,466 --> 00:03:55,235

olds, one year olds, the newborns

 

97

00:03:55,235 --> 00:03:56,369

running around.

 

98

00:03:56,369 --> 00:03:57,570

So we had, bunch

 

99

00:03:57,570 --> 00:03:58,905

of little babies in the house.

 

100

00:03:58,905 --> 00:04:00,373

It was nice. Really

 

101

00:04:01,474 --> 00:04:03,710

Awesome.

 

102

00:04:03,710 --> 00:04:05,912

We did the whole

 

103

00:04:05,912 --> 00:04:06,779

pool thing.

 

104

00:04:06,779 --> 00:04:10,083

Swimming, barbecue, tons of fire,

 

105

00:04:10,283 --> 00:04:13,286

tons of fireworks.

 

106

00:04:13,353 --> 00:04:14,821

Then Sunday, I had everybody back

 

107

00:04:14,821 --> 00:04:17,790

for brunch. More pool.

 

108

00:04:18,524 --> 00:04:21,394

But since we were talking about movies

 

109

00:04:21,394 --> 00:04:23,496

for Father's Day, my son gave me,

 

110

00:04:23,496 --> 00:04:25,431

he goes, here's your Father's Day gift.

 

111

00:04:25,431 --> 00:04:27,834

And it was a coupon

 

112

00:04:27,834 --> 00:04:30,837

to, a local theater.

 

113

00:04:30,903 --> 00:04:32,905

They were going to show Jaws on

 

114

00:04:32,905 --> 00:04:35,642

July 5th on the big screen.

 

115

00:04:35,642 --> 00:04:36,876

Wait wait wait wait wait wait.

 

116

00:04:36,876 --> 00:04:37,910

That was a present

 

117

00:04:37,910 --> 00:04:39,946

he gave you as a present.

 

118

00:04:39,946 --> 00:04:42,949

Yes. Yeah.

 

119

00:04:42,949 --> 00:04:45,952

Father's day.

 

120

00:04:47,120 --> 00:04:48,054

Yeah.

 

121

00:04:48,054 --> 00:04:51,057

Just a couple weeks ago.

 

122

00:04:51,791 --> 00:04:53,893

It's, it it

 

123

00:04:53,893 --> 00:04:56,896

it had a lot of, sentimental

 

124

00:04:57,697 --> 00:04:59,065

jaws on the big screen,

 

125

00:04:59,065 --> 00:05:00,867

but we were also taking his oldest

 

126

00:05:00,867 --> 00:05:03,202

boy, Hendrick.

 

127

00:05:03,202 --> 00:05:04,337

Right.

 

128

00:05:04,337 --> 00:05:05,004

Because that's it.

 

129

00:05:05,004 --> 00:05:06,372

That's the Johnson movie.

 

130

00:05:07,940 --> 00:05:09,575

The Johnson movie is jaws.

 

131

00:05:09,575 --> 00:05:12,578

Everybody in the family, right?

 

132

00:05:14,013 --> 00:05:17,016

So Hendrick said to me,

 

133

00:05:18,418 --> 00:05:20,086

Bob, what do you think I'll do?

 

134

00:05:20,086 --> 00:05:22,689

You think I'll be scared?

 

135

00:05:22,689 --> 00:05:25,591

I said, well, Hendrick,

 

136

00:05:25,591 --> 00:05:27,260

two people when they see

 

137

00:05:27,260 --> 00:05:28,161

jaws,

 

138

00:05:28,161 --> 00:05:29,329

you were going to walk out of there,

 

139

00:05:29,329 --> 00:05:31,731

1 or 2 people. Okay.

 

140

00:05:31,731 --> 00:05:34,734

I said you could walk out like Nana.

 

141

00:05:35,335 --> 00:05:36,402

Okay.

 

142

00:05:36,402 --> 00:05:38,104

Never went back in the water again.

 

143

00:05:38,104 --> 00:05:39,505

Saw jaws

 

144

00:05:39,505 --> 00:05:41,307

and never went back in the water.

 

145

00:05:41,307 --> 00:05:43,743

Said or you could walk out like me

 

146

00:05:43,743 --> 00:05:45,044

and your dad.

 

147

00:05:45,044 --> 00:05:45,278

Well,

 

148

00:05:45,278 --> 00:05:47,180

we bought underwater cameras and scuba

 

149

00:05:47,180 --> 00:05:49,115

gear and snorkel gear

 

150

00:05:49,115 --> 00:05:51,484

and we went looking for.

 

151

00:05:51,484 --> 00:05:54,454

Now he's been snorkeling for a few years

 

152

00:05:54,454 --> 00:05:55,021

already.

 

153

00:05:55,021 --> 00:05:56,989

Right. The kid?

 

154

00:05:56,989 --> 00:05:59,525

So we go to the movie and it was

 

155

00:05:59,525 --> 00:06:01,027

it was just great.

 

156

00:06:01,027 --> 00:06:03,296

It was awesome. Okay.

 

157

00:06:03,296 --> 00:06:04,997

And we walk out and we walk into the car,

 

158

00:06:04,997 --> 00:06:06,332

he looks at me and he goes, boy,

 

159

00:06:06,332 --> 00:06:08,401

I wish we could go to the beach tomorrow.

 

160

00:06:08,401 --> 00:06:10,870

I was like, see, there you go.

 

161

00:06:10,870 --> 00:06:11,771

You're that.

 

162

00:06:11,771 --> 00:06:13,539

Yeah, that a boy?

 

163

00:06:13,539 --> 00:06:15,842

That's my boy. Yeah, that was fun.

 

164

00:06:18,010 --> 00:06:18,745

Fun time.

 

165

00:06:18,745 --> 00:06:21,748

The great holiday 250 years.

 

166

00:06:25,885 --> 00:06:28,755

I was just telling Pauline to.

 

167

00:06:28,755 --> 00:06:31,290

I know her body was jacked up

 

168

00:06:31,290 --> 00:06:34,293

about 250 years,

 

169

00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:37,430

but I think more people were jacked up

 

170

00:06:37,430 --> 00:06:40,433

about 200 years.

 

171

00:06:41,601 --> 00:06:42,502

And you know why?

 

172

00:06:42,502 --> 00:06:45,505

This is just my feeling

 

173

00:06:45,972 --> 00:06:47,440

you were around for that, right?

 

174

00:06:47,440 --> 00:06:50,443

You remember 1976.

 

175

00:06:50,843 --> 00:06:52,311

Okay.

 

176

00:06:52,311 --> 00:06:54,480

Well, what was it called?

 

177

00:06:54,480 --> 00:06:55,581

They didn't call it 200.

 

178

00:06:55,581 --> 00:06:55,982

Yeah.

 

179

00:06:55,982 --> 00:06:58,951

Say that again.

 

180

00:06:59,919 --> 00:07:02,922

It was called the Bicentennial.

 

181

00:07:03,356 --> 00:07:04,190

Okay.

 

182

00:07:04,190 --> 00:07:07,727

That name just rolled off the tongue.

 

183

00:07:08,361 --> 00:07:10,563

Nobody called it 200 years. Nobody.

 

184

00:07:10,563 --> 00:07:12,131

You know what I mean?

 

185

00:07:12,131 --> 00:07:13,633

It was the bicentennial.

 

186

00:07:13,633 --> 00:07:15,435

It had a good name.

 

187

00:07:15,435 --> 00:07:17,403

And I think that's why

 

188

00:07:17,403 --> 00:07:18,404

I think it hit home

 

189

00:07:18,404 --> 00:07:19,472

a little bit more than.

 

190

00:07:19,472 --> 00:07:21,541

Hey, don't get me wrong, 250.

 

191

00:07:21,541 --> 00:07:22,341

That's amazing.

 

192

00:07:22,341 --> 00:07:24,076

But

 

193

00:07:24,076 --> 00:07:26,979

Bicentennial,

 

194

00:07:26,979 --> 00:07:28,047

that's like.

 

195

00:07:28,047 --> 00:07:29,248

That's, like, on the floor

 

196

00:07:29,248 --> 00:07:32,185

with Wayne and Rob or the award winning

 

197

00:07:33,453 --> 00:07:35,988

on the floor with Wayne and Rob.

 

198

00:07:35,988 --> 00:07:36,856

1976,

 

199

00:07:36,856 --> 00:07:39,058

I was living in a small town in Kentucky,

 

200

00:07:39,058 --> 00:07:41,994

and they buried a time capsule

 

201

00:07:41,994 --> 00:07:44,397

at the courthouse.

 

202

00:07:44,397 --> 00:07:45,631

We talked on the last episode

 

203

00:07:45,631 --> 00:07:47,333

about how time flies

 

204

00:07:47,333 --> 00:07:49,268

and how you just just, you know,

 

205

00:07:49,268 --> 00:07:50,002

click of a finger.

 

206

00:07:50,002 --> 00:07:53,005

You're gone 50 years.

 

207

00:07:53,506 --> 00:07:55,741

This this week before July 4th,

 

208

00:07:55,741 --> 00:07:56,309

they they

 

209

00:07:56,309 --> 00:07:57,944

the whole plan was

 

210

00:07:57,944 --> 00:07:59,378

and they put a marker up

 

211

00:07:59,378 --> 00:08:01,547

1976 Bicentennial.

 

212

00:08:01,547 --> 00:08:04,784

We we we buried a time capsule

 

213

00:08:05,051 --> 00:08:06,519

with a bunch of different stuff in there.

 

214

00:08:06,519 --> 00:08:08,321

I don't know what's even in there.

 

215

00:08:08,321 --> 00:08:09,121

And they said,

 

216

00:08:09,121 --> 00:08:10,456

I assume one of them was my jerseys

 

217

00:08:10,456 --> 00:08:11,224

from the high school.

 

218

00:08:11,224 --> 00:08:12,358

I played that,

 

219

00:08:12,358 --> 00:08:15,361

my jersey in particular, but who knows?

 

220

00:08:15,561 --> 00:08:16,462

Yeah.

 

221

00:08:16,462 --> 00:08:18,064

You don't know, right?

 

222

00:08:18,064 --> 00:08:19,699

was to dig it up 50 years later.

 

223

00:08:19,699 --> 00:08:20,366

Now standing

 

224

00:08:20,366 --> 00:08:23,302

there is a 16 year old kid in 1976.

 

225

00:08:23,302 --> 00:08:23,903

Do you think that

 

226

00:08:23,903 --> 00:08:25,771

I thought I would ever, 50 years

 

227

00:08:25,771 --> 00:08:27,139

later, be around

 

228

00:08:27,139 --> 00:08:27,773

when they were digging

 

229

00:08:27,773 --> 00:08:29,275

that thing up again?

 

230

00:08:29,275 --> 00:08:30,877

But Never.

 

231

00:08:30,877 --> 00:08:31,410

Yep.

 

232

00:08:31,410 --> 00:08:32,111

50 years later,

 

233

00:08:32,111 --> 00:08:32,945

it's in the newspaper

 

234

00:08:32,945 --> 00:08:34,780

there, dug it back up.

 

235

00:08:34,780 --> 00:08:35,882

I have yet to see what's in it.

 

236

00:08:35,882 --> 00:08:36,782

I have to ask my friend

 

237

00:08:36,782 --> 00:08:38,618

who still lives there, but,

 

238

00:08:38,618 --> 00:08:39,418

But they're pretty.

 

239

00:08:39,418 --> 00:08:41,487

Pretty, That's awesome.

 

240

00:08:41,487 --> 00:08:43,389

Yeah. idea.

 

241

00:08:43,389 --> 00:08:44,357

That's just like when you do

 

242

00:08:44,357 --> 00:08:45,625

floors and you,

 

243

00:08:45,625 --> 00:08:47,093

put newspapers underneath the floor.

 

244

00:08:47,093 --> 00:08:47,727

You ever do that

 

245

00:08:48,828 --> 00:08:50,429

I never I never

 

246

00:08:50,429 --> 00:08:51,030

did that, but

 

247

00:08:51,030 --> 00:08:52,265

Pete and I ripped up a floor

 

248

00:08:52,265 --> 00:08:54,233

one day and meet Pete.

 

249

00:08:54,233 --> 00:08:56,302

And the owner of the house

 

250

00:08:56,302 --> 00:08:58,804

sat reading newspapers.

 

251

00:08:58,804 --> 00:09:01,707

I would say for three hours.

 

252

00:09:01,707 --> 00:09:02,341

Papers.

 

253

00:09:02,341 --> 00:09:03,576

It was all newspapers

 

254

00:09:03,576 --> 00:09:05,678

from, like, the 30s and 40. It was.

 

255

00:09:05,678 --> 00:09:07,747

It was awesome.

 

256

00:09:07,747 --> 00:09:10,516

I mean, it was awesome.

 

257

00:09:10,516 --> 00:09:12,151

The guy was more jacked about what

 

258

00:09:12,151 --> 00:09:13,419

we found under the floor

 

259

00:09:13,419 --> 00:09:14,754

as we were tearing out

 

260

00:09:14,754 --> 00:09:16,589

than he was about his new floors.

 

261

00:09:16,589 --> 00:09:18,991

It was just crazy stuff.

 

262

00:09:18,991 --> 00:09:20,493

So funny.

 

263

00:09:20,493 --> 00:09:21,727

newspapers under the floors,

 

264

00:09:21,727 --> 00:09:24,730

we put business cards, we've sign boards.

 

265

00:09:24,730 --> 00:09:28,367

And, we've also put like, today it's,

 

266

00:09:29,368 --> 00:09:32,772

it's 2000 or it's, let's say it's 1987.

 

267

00:09:32,772 --> 00:09:34,507

So and so is president

 

268

00:09:34,507 --> 00:09:36,676

and the election is, is it so and so on.

 

269

00:09:36,676 --> 00:09:37,643

And we think

 

270

00:09:37,643 --> 00:09:38,911

someone's always going to win

 

271

00:09:38,911 --> 00:09:40,079

and we put down

 

272

00:09:40,079 --> 00:09:41,080

whoever we think is

 

273

00:09:41,080 --> 00:09:42,181

damn sure not going to win.

 

274

00:09:42,181 --> 00:09:44,150

You know what I Yeah.

 

275

00:09:44,150 --> 00:09:45,184

put down different stuff in there.

 

276

00:09:45,184 --> 00:09:46,319

I put them before

 

277

00:09:46,319 --> 00:09:49,121

I put this floor down here for the last

 

278

00:09:49,121 --> 00:09:51,791

a lifetime. So put it back. Put that on

 

279

00:09:59,599 --> 00:10:00,533

We once we

 

280

00:10:00,533 --> 00:10:03,536

once had to put, new gutters,

 

281

00:10:03,703 --> 00:10:05,037

in a bowling alley

 

282

00:10:05,037 --> 00:10:05,871

just outside of

 

283

00:10:05,871 --> 00:10:07,306

Pittsfield, Massachusetts.

 

284

00:10:07,306 --> 00:10:09,909

And when when we got there

 

285

00:10:09,909 --> 00:10:11,210

and everything, my dad said.

 

286

00:10:11,210 --> 00:10:13,646

Yeah, this was one of the last

 

287

00:10:13,646 --> 00:10:16,649

jobs your great grandfather built.

 

288

00:10:16,816 --> 00:10:18,117

I was like, wow. Really?

 

289

00:10:18,117 --> 00:10:18,884

Yeah. He goes, yep.

 

290

00:10:18,884 --> 00:10:20,653

This was, you know,

 

291

00:10:20,653 --> 00:10:21,854

this is one of the last ones

 

292

00:10:21,854 --> 00:10:22,888

that he built.

 

293

00:10:22,888 --> 00:10:24,590

I was like, oh, this is great.

 

294

00:10:24,590 --> 00:10:26,058

So we're, you know,

 

295

00:10:26,058 --> 00:10:26,559

tearing up

 

296

00:10:26,559 --> 00:10:27,627

all the old gutters

 

297

00:10:27,627 --> 00:10:31,397

and stuff, put new ones in and it,

 

298

00:10:31,397 --> 00:10:32,665

I bet we found

 

299

00:10:32,665 --> 00:10:35,668

20 bottles of whiskey empty.

 

300

00:10:36,268 --> 00:10:38,471

Yeah, it's

 

301

00:10:38,471 --> 00:10:41,474

it was up with.

 

302

00:10:43,576 --> 00:10:45,811

It was only like a 16 lane bowling alley.

 

303

00:10:45,811 --> 00:10:47,980

I was like, holy it was. Yeah.

 

304

00:10:47,980 --> 00:10:48,414

He goes,

 

305

00:10:48,414 --> 00:10:49,148

they would, you know,

 

306

00:10:49,148 --> 00:10:50,282

get to the end of the lane.

 

307

00:10:50,282 --> 00:10:52,585

Or I was like, oh my gosh.

 

308

00:10:54,120 --> 00:10:55,921

Yeah,

 

309

00:10:55,921 --> 00:10:58,891

right there.

 

310

00:11:04,363 --> 00:11:04,664

I got a

 

311

00:11:04,664 --> 00:11:07,667

question to ask you.

 

312

00:11:08,267 --> 00:11:10,169

And I it's going to kind of

 

313

00:11:10,169 --> 00:11:11,604

have something to do with today's show.

 

314

00:11:11,604 --> 00:11:13,506

But we are going to do a show

 

315

00:11:13,506 --> 00:11:15,241

today, right.

 

316

00:11:15,241 --> 00:11:16,175

Okay.

 

317

00:11:16,175 --> 00:11:18,444

All right.

 

318

00:11:18,444 --> 00:11:21,047

Guy, put down the guys, get a three.

 

319

00:11:21,047 --> 00:11:22,548

I just talked to him this morning.

 

320

00:11:22,548 --> 00:11:25,551

He's got a 3000ft install.

 

321

00:11:26,852 --> 00:11:29,221

He wants to put roll guard down,

 

322

00:11:29,221 --> 00:11:33,225

but somebody already painted the plywood

 

323

00:11:33,859 --> 00:11:36,862

with, Zinser

 

324

00:11:37,997 --> 00:11:40,900

3000ft.

 

325

00:11:40,900 --> 00:11:42,068

He wants to put roll guard

 

326

00:11:42,068 --> 00:11:45,071

because he's doing a glue nail assist.

 

327

00:11:45,271 --> 00:11:48,274

Does he have to sand that Zenger up?

 

328

00:11:48,841 --> 00:11:50,976

Yeah, I would two reasons.

 

329

00:11:50,976 --> 00:11:52,712

One, you don't want that much.

 

330

00:11:52,712 --> 00:11:53,813

You don't want to seal the floor

 

331

00:11:53,813 --> 00:11:55,081

that much.

 

332

00:11:55,081 --> 00:11:55,715

And the more

 

333

00:11:55,715 --> 00:11:57,516

the properties of the Royal Guard

 

334

00:11:57,516 --> 00:12:00,019

is so more effective than Zinser.

 

335

00:12:00,019 --> 00:12:01,353

So you definitely want to get

 

336

00:12:01,353 --> 00:12:02,955

that off the floor first.

 

337

00:12:02,955 --> 00:12:04,190

Okay. Yeah.

 

338

00:12:04,190 --> 00:12:05,891

And you want to make sure that as a

 

339

00:12:05,891 --> 00:12:07,293

reaction with the wood and everything.

 

340

00:12:07,293 --> 00:12:11,397

So yeah I know it's it's a lot 3000ft².

 

341

00:12:11,397 --> 00:12:13,132

But best practice

 

342

00:12:13,132 --> 00:12:13,999

I would, I would take that

 

343

00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:17,336

Okay,

 

344

00:12:17,336 --> 00:12:19,405

that's what I'll tell him.

 

345

00:12:19,405 --> 00:12:21,140

Yeah.

 

346

00:12:21,140 --> 00:12:23,342

Perfect.

 

347

00:12:23,342 --> 00:12:25,177

So we were talking about how,

 

348

00:12:25,177 --> 00:12:26,545

you know, of a, floor

 

349

00:12:26,545 --> 00:12:28,347

guys knowledgeable because we

 

350

00:12:28,347 --> 00:12:30,182

we had a guy come up to us one time, said

 

351

00:12:30,182 --> 00:12:32,852

he was a journeyman floor man.

 

352

00:12:32,852 --> 00:12:34,253

And I thought,

 

353

00:12:34,253 --> 00:12:36,122

well, if a guy comes up and tells me,

 

354

00:12:36,122 --> 00:12:36,856

you know, ask the guy,

 

355

00:12:36,856 --> 00:12:38,224

you know, the whole deal with this guy

 

356

00:12:38,224 --> 00:12:39,325

wasn't a journeyman floor man.

 

357

00:12:39,325 --> 00:12:41,393

He didn't know. He didn't know much.

 

358

00:12:41,393 --> 00:12:43,395

He was very much lacking.

 

359

00:12:43,395 --> 00:12:45,397

He had a rudimentary education

 

360

00:12:45,397 --> 00:12:49,869

and, and floors and, and, and Guys,

 

361

00:12:49,902 --> 00:12:51,070

I thought we were going

 

362

00:12:51,070 --> 00:12:52,938

to keep this between you and I.

 

363

00:12:52,938 --> 00:12:53,405

You know,

 

364

00:12:53,405 --> 00:12:54,306

I have to tell everybody

 

365

00:12:54,306 --> 00:12:55,207

everything about me.

 

366

00:12:55,207 --> 00:12:57,843

You know what I mean? Yeah.

 

367

00:12:57,843 --> 00:12:58,878

Under the bridge.

 

368

00:12:58,878 --> 00:13:00,946

Are they? Be okay with it now?

 

369

00:13:00,946 --> 00:13:01,147

Yeah.

 

370

00:13:01,147 --> 00:13:03,883

Experience doesn't equal expertise.

 

371

00:13:03,883 --> 00:13:04,950

Yes.

 

372

00:13:04,950 --> 00:13:07,553

Oh, by the way, since you said that

 

373

00:13:07,553 --> 00:13:09,688

on our local, local town,

 

374

00:13:10,656 --> 00:13:11,991

a guy asked,

 

375

00:13:11,991 --> 00:13:13,392

he goes, I'm a I'm a contractor.

 

376

00:13:13,392 --> 00:13:14,760

I'm kind of new in the area.

 

377

00:13:14,760 --> 00:13:16,395

Kind of get a sense on what

 

378

00:13:16,395 --> 00:13:17,496

what guys are charging

 

379

00:13:17,496 --> 00:13:18,697

right here, you know, for jobs

 

380

00:13:18,697 --> 00:13:19,899

and what is acceptable in the area,

 

381

00:13:19,899 --> 00:13:20,800

blah, blah, blah.

 

382

00:13:20,800 --> 00:13:22,935

And what do you guys is homeowners

 

383

00:13:22,935 --> 00:13:23,369

feel like

 

384

00:13:23,369 --> 00:13:25,638

is it acceptable amount to charge

 

385

00:13:25,638 --> 00:13:28,574

and that this is very interesting.

 

386

00:13:28,574 --> 00:13:31,443

Here's what.

 

387

00:13:31,443 --> 00:13:32,511

Oh, don't.

 

388

00:13:32,511 --> 00:13:34,346

Oh, please.

 

389

00:13:34,346 --> 00:13:37,349

respond to us.

 

390

00:13:37,383 --> 00:13:39,952

I think it's reasonable to start at $20

 

391

00:13:39,952 --> 00:13:41,253

an hour

 

392

00:13:41,253 --> 00:13:42,221

to the contractor,

 

393

00:13:42,221 --> 00:13:43,622

and I add a dollar

 

394

00:13:43,622 --> 00:13:45,324

for every year of experience.

 

395

00:13:45,324 --> 00:13:46,892

So we've been doing floors

 

396

00:13:46,892 --> 00:13:48,460

for or not wedding floors.

 

397

00:13:48,460 --> 00:13:50,196

It has been 20 years experience.

 

398

00:13:50,196 --> 00:13:53,199

Then that be $40 an hour.

 

399

00:13:53,399 --> 00:13:54,200

That's the stupidest thing

 

400

00:13:54,200 --> 00:13:54,967

I've ever heard in my life,

 

401

00:13:56,302 --> 00:13:58,671

was I gotta do anything.

 

402

00:13:58,671 --> 00:14:00,306

Well.

 

403

00:14:00,306 --> 00:14:01,006

Yeah.

 

404

00:14:01,006 --> 00:14:02,174

Give me this guy's number.

 

405

00:14:02,174 --> 00:14:05,177

I want to go work for him.

 

406

00:14:05,444 --> 00:14:05,678

Okay.

 

407

00:14:05,678 --> 00:14:08,013

I'm going to get 70 bucks an hour.

 

408

00:14:08,013 --> 00:14:08,881

Yeah.

 

409

00:14:08,881 --> 00:14:11,884

Pay me. Yeah.

 

410

00:14:11,917 --> 00:14:13,586

70 bucks.

 

411

00:14:13,586 --> 00:14:14,086

Look at him.

 

412

00:14:14,086 --> 00:14:15,521

He hasn't got out of the truck.

 

413

00:14:15,521 --> 00:14:17,089

As soon as I hit the driveway,

 

414

00:14:17,089 --> 00:14:18,858

buddy, $75.

 

415

00:14:18,858 --> 00:14:21,393

The meter's running.

 

416

00:14:21,393 --> 00:14:21,727

All right.

 

417

00:14:21,727 --> 00:14:22,862

But our show is about

 

418

00:14:22,862 --> 00:14:23,762

today is like all right.

 

419

00:14:23,762 --> 00:14:25,965

Well how do you determine a, a journeyman

 

420

00:14:25,965 --> 00:14:28,367

a journeyman, guy who's been around

 

421

00:14:28,367 --> 00:14:29,969

he's been around the industry.

 

422

00:14:29,969 --> 00:14:31,070

He's knowledgeable.

 

423

00:14:31,070 --> 00:14:33,339

He's knowledgeable about the industry

 

424

00:14:33,339 --> 00:14:34,974

and the trade and everything.

 

425

00:14:34,974 --> 00:14:37,343

Like what would you ask him?

 

426

00:14:37,343 --> 00:14:38,277

And we have

 

427

00:14:38,277 --> 00:14:39,812

we wrote down some questions

 

428

00:14:39,812 --> 00:14:42,548

that maybe you would ask this guy.

 

429

00:14:42,548 --> 00:14:44,583

I'll start with number one, Rob.

 

430

00:14:44,583 --> 00:14:44,884

Okay.

 

431

00:14:49,889 --> 00:14:52,892

Yeah.

 

432

00:14:56,395 --> 00:14:59,398

Yes.

 

433

00:15:05,671 --> 00:15:06,705

Okay,

 

434

00:15:06,705 --> 00:15:09,208

here's what we're looking for.

 

435

00:15:09,208 --> 00:15:10,075

Number one.

 

436

00:15:10,075 --> 00:15:10,609

And these are,

 

437

00:15:10,609 --> 00:15:12,311

these are things that he could

 

438

00:15:12,311 --> 00:15:13,512

he could,

 

439

00:15:13,512 --> 00:15:14,613

he could bring up one

 

440

00:15:14,613 --> 00:15:15,481

relative humidity

 

441

00:15:15,481 --> 00:15:19,251

RH testing was ASTM, F 270.

 

442

00:15:20,019 --> 00:15:22,521

Calcium chloride testing.

 

443

00:15:22,521 --> 00:15:23,689

The interesting

 

444

00:15:23,689 --> 00:15:24,590

talk to him about the difference

 

445

00:15:24,590 --> 00:15:26,058

between the two of them,

 

446

00:15:26,058 --> 00:15:27,126

understanding

 

447

00:15:27,126 --> 00:15:29,528

of moisture mitigation systems

 

448

00:15:29,528 --> 00:15:30,296

and discussion

 

449

00:15:30,296 --> 00:15:32,765

of manufacture moisture limitations.

 

450

00:15:32,765 --> 00:15:35,768

Okay.

 

451

00:15:38,137 --> 00:15:39,705

I'll do number two.

 

452

00:15:39,705 --> 00:15:41,340

Yeah,

 

453

00:15:41,340 --> 00:15:44,176

yeah.

 

454

00:15:44,176 --> 00:15:46,412

So I'm going to ask you,

 

455

00:15:46,412 --> 00:15:48,047

what acclimation procedures

 

456

00:15:48,047 --> 00:15:49,682

do you follow for solid

 

457

00:15:49,682 --> 00:15:52,685

and engineered hardwood flooring?

 

458

00:15:52,985 --> 00:15:53,385

Okay.

 

459

00:15:53,385 --> 00:15:54,353

So what are you looking for

 

460

00:15:54,353 --> 00:15:56,555

when you ask that question?

 

461

00:15:56,555 --> 00:15:59,925

Depends on the manufacturer requirements.

 

462

00:15:59,925 --> 00:16:02,928

Number one answer.

 

463

00:16:04,229 --> 00:16:04,997

Measuring moisture

 

464

00:16:04,997 --> 00:16:08,000

content of both flooring and subfloor.

 

465

00:16:08,901 --> 00:16:10,970

Understanding that the acclimation

 

466

00:16:10,970 --> 00:16:12,037

is about

 

467

00:16:12,037 --> 00:16:15,541

moisture equilibrium, not just time.

 

468

00:16:18,410 --> 00:16:20,312

Do me a favor and dive into

 

469

00:16:20,312 --> 00:16:23,282

the equilibrium thing, please, because.

 

470

00:16:24,950 --> 00:16:26,652

We get this at schools

 

471

00:16:26,652 --> 00:16:26,986

a lot

 

472

00:16:26,986 --> 00:16:29,621

people talking about the equilibrium

 

473

00:16:29,621 --> 00:16:31,623

and what's right and what's wrong.

 

474

00:16:31,623 --> 00:16:33,759

I want to hear from the horse's mouth.

 

475

00:16:33,759 --> 00:16:35,094

when if talk about

 

476

00:16:35,094 --> 00:16:35,961

equilibrium, that's

 

477

00:16:35,961 --> 00:16:37,496

when the wood is neither

 

478

00:16:37,496 --> 00:16:38,530

gaining nor losing.

 

479

00:16:38,530 --> 00:16:40,632

Moisturize its equilibrium.

 

480

00:16:40,632 --> 00:16:42,701

If you're wondering about the

 

481

00:16:42,701 --> 00:16:43,702

the the difference

 

482

00:16:43,702 --> 00:16:44,603

in the moisture content

 

483

00:16:44,603 --> 00:16:45,871

between the wood floor and the subfloor,

 

484

00:16:45,871 --> 00:16:47,906

is that what you're Yes.

 

485

00:16:47,906 --> 00:16:49,708

Yes.

 

486

00:16:49,708 --> 00:16:50,476

plank floors,

 

487

00:16:50,476 --> 00:16:51,777

which is defined by anything,

 

488

00:16:51,777 --> 00:16:53,212

there's a three inches or over,

 

489

00:16:53,212 --> 00:16:54,279

it should be within

 

490

00:16:54,279 --> 00:16:56,015

two percentage points.

 

491

00:16:56,015 --> 00:16:57,349

And for strip flooring

 

492

00:16:57,349 --> 00:16:58,117

it should be within

 

493

00:16:58,117 --> 00:17:01,120

four percentage points like two and a

 

494

00:17:01,553 --> 00:17:03,422

Okay. Yes.

 

495

00:17:03,422 --> 00:17:05,357

Now that, the.

 

496

00:17:05,357 --> 00:17:06,658

You know, you know what?

 

497

00:17:06,658 --> 00:17:08,360

You're you're smarter than you look,

 

498

00:17:09,528 --> 00:17:12,164

That was,

 

499

00:17:12,164 --> 00:17:15,167

You get two belts for that, one

 

500

00:17:15,234 --> 00:17:18,203

for run, strip four on strip two on five.

 

501

00:17:18,570 --> 00:17:21,006

Okay. Got it. right.

 

502

00:17:21,006 --> 00:17:22,041

What are the most common

 

503

00:17:22,041 --> 00:17:22,841

causes of cutting,

 

504

00:17:22,841 --> 00:17:23,842

crowding or gapping

 

505

00:17:23,842 --> 00:17:25,444

in the hardwood floors?

 

506

00:17:25,444 --> 00:17:26,412

What I'm looking for

 

507

00:17:26,412 --> 00:17:28,380

is for him to talk about moisture

 

508

00:17:28,380 --> 00:17:30,249

or moisture imbalance.

 

509

00:17:30,249 --> 00:17:31,784

Seasonal, humid,

 

510

00:17:31,784 --> 00:17:33,652

seasonal humidity changes.

 

511

00:17:33,652 --> 00:17:34,153

What's up?

 

512

00:17:34,153 --> 00:17:35,387

Floors, Hvac

 

513

00:17:35,387 --> 00:17:38,390

issues, improper installation practices.

 

514

00:17:39,158 --> 00:17:40,259

Let's just have some knowledge

 

515

00:17:40,259 --> 00:17:43,262

about those type of areas, right?

 

516

00:17:44,229 --> 00:17:44,563

All right.

 

517

00:17:44,563 --> 00:17:45,998

I wrote this one.

 

518

00:17:45,998 --> 00:17:46,999

You wrote the next one answered.

 

519

00:17:46,999 --> 00:17:48,133

Please go ahead and read your next.

 

520

00:17:48,133 --> 00:17:50,135

So go ahead and.

 

521

00:17:50,135 --> 00:17:52,404

You sure?

 

522

00:17:52,404 --> 00:17:53,105

All right.

 

523

00:17:53,105 --> 00:17:55,340

When would you recommend

 

524

00:17:55,340 --> 00:17:58,210

a moisture mitigation system

 

525

00:17:58,210 --> 00:18:01,213

and what options are available?

 

526

00:18:01,447 --> 00:18:03,949

Here's what we're looking for.

 

527

00:18:03,949 --> 00:18:06,752

High rates in the concrete.

 

528

00:18:06,752 --> 00:18:07,719

New construction

 

529

00:18:09,555 --> 00:18:11,723

below grade installation

 

530

00:18:11,723 --> 00:18:14,726

roll on barriers epoxy systems

 

531

00:18:15,360 --> 00:18:18,464

understanding of warranty implications.

 

532

00:18:19,298 --> 00:18:20,632

We're starting to see something.

 

533

00:18:20,632 --> 00:18:21,733

Here are we.

 

534

00:18:21,733 --> 00:18:24,002

Everyone has definitely something

 

535

00:18:24,002 --> 00:18:27,005

about checking in with the manufacturer

 

536

00:18:28,073 --> 00:18:31,043

of the wood.

 

537

00:18:35,814 --> 00:18:36,548

Wait.

 

538

00:18:36,548 --> 00:18:38,450

Hey, wait.

 

539

00:18:38,450 --> 00:18:41,453

I gotta ask the horse another one?

 

540

00:18:41,954 --> 00:18:42,788

Yeah.

 

541

00:18:42,788 --> 00:18:45,057

You see,

 

542

00:18:45,057 --> 00:18:48,060

are there still epoxy systems out there?

 

543

00:18:49,962 --> 00:18:51,063

Epoxy systems

 

544

00:18:51,063 --> 00:18:53,465

are the holy grail of moisture barriers,

 

545

00:18:53,465 --> 00:18:54,867

in my opinion.

 

546

00:18:54,867 --> 00:18:56,435

However, you see,

 

547

00:18:56,435 --> 00:18:57,336

a lot of them are being used

 

548

00:18:57,336 --> 00:18:58,637

less and less.

 

549

00:18:58,637 --> 00:19:00,706

You know, there's some downside.

 

550

00:19:00,706 --> 00:19:01,340

I mean, they have

 

551

00:19:01,340 --> 00:19:02,341

short life,

 

552

00:19:02,341 --> 00:19:05,177

some got a lot of smell to them.

 

553

00:19:05,177 --> 00:19:07,045

They're hot, hot, hot.

 

554

00:19:07,045 --> 00:19:09,681

The need when you mix them together.

 

555

00:19:09,681 --> 00:19:12,351

So, now with a lot of,

 

556

00:19:12,351 --> 00:19:16,488

adhesive manufacturers offering,

 

557

00:19:16,622 --> 00:19:19,625

limited warranties, that's also kind of

 

558

00:19:20,292 --> 00:19:20,993

part of the reason,

 

559

00:19:20,993 --> 00:19:21,527

probably why

 

560

00:19:21,527 --> 00:19:23,462

the two part epoxy is going away.

 

561

00:19:23,462 --> 00:19:24,863

The roll of moisture barriers

 

562

00:19:24,863 --> 00:19:26,698

well, may not be as effective.

 

563

00:19:26,698 --> 00:19:28,700

I'm being completely honest.

 

564

00:19:28,700 --> 00:19:31,904

Super simple to use,

 

565

00:19:34,973 --> 00:19:35,707

What are the

 

566

00:19:35,707 --> 00:19:38,710

prices on epoxy systems?

 

567

00:19:39,077 --> 00:19:40,012

They got to be.

 

568

00:19:40,012 --> 00:19:42,981

They got to be wicked expensive.

 

569

00:19:54,526 --> 00:19:57,529

Well, the reason that the

 

570

00:19:57,563 --> 00:19:59,631

the reason, I asked was

 

571

00:19:59,631 --> 00:20:01,800

we used to use a lot of epoxies.

 

572

00:20:01,800 --> 00:20:02,668

We had

 

573

00:20:02,668 --> 00:20:04,570

there was an epoxy bone lane

 

574

00:20:04,570 --> 00:20:06,271

finish system,

 

575

00:20:06,271 --> 00:20:09,541

and it was a four minute epoxy.

 

576

00:20:09,541 --> 00:20:10,876

And you had four minute,

 

577

00:20:10,876 --> 00:20:13,879

you had like a minute to mix it,

 

578

00:20:14,379 --> 00:20:16,448

and then you had about 3.5 minutes

 

579

00:20:16,448 --> 00:20:19,451

to get down to the lane end of the lane

 

580

00:20:19,451 --> 00:20:21,386

and draw it all the way back.

 

581

00:20:21,386 --> 00:20:23,088

And

 

582

00:20:23,088 --> 00:20:25,324

after that, it would be almost too

 

583

00:20:25,324 --> 00:20:26,024

hot in your hand

 

584

00:20:26,024 --> 00:20:28,594

to, to hold on to anymore.

 

585

00:20:28,594 --> 00:20:30,162

And then it was hard

 

586

00:20:30,162 --> 00:20:32,731

like three, four minutes later.

 

587

00:20:32,731 --> 00:20:34,533

But the other problem they had with

 

588

00:20:34,533 --> 00:20:38,570

it was just some nasty, caustic stuff.

 

589

00:20:38,570 --> 00:20:39,538

I can't believe that there's

 

590

00:20:39,538 --> 00:20:41,039

still any type of

 

591

00:20:41,039 --> 00:20:42,808

epoxy systems left out there.

 

592

00:20:45,143 --> 00:20:47,145

I mean, it, it wore like iron,

 

593

00:20:47,145 --> 00:20:50,148

but it was just,

 

594

00:20:50,849 --> 00:20:52,017

we used to have to put it down

 

595

00:20:52,017 --> 00:20:55,020

with a 35 pound squeegee.

 

596

00:20:55,287 --> 00:20:57,422

Yeah, it was it was just brutal stuff.

 

597

00:20:57,422 --> 00:20:58,790

Nasty.

 

598

00:20:58,790 --> 00:21:00,592

All right, let's keep going here.

 

599

00:21:00,592 --> 00:21:03,562

We're going to run out of time.

 

600

00:21:04,229 --> 00:21:06,164

and pressure sensitive adhesive?

 

601

00:21:06,164 --> 00:21:07,199

Well, are you looking for a product?

 

602

00:21:07,199 --> 00:21:08,800

The benefits and limitations

 

603

00:21:08,800 --> 00:21:09,468

of each adhesive

 

604

00:21:09,468 --> 00:21:10,702

technology,

 

605

00:21:10,702 --> 00:21:13,705

and recognizing where it should be used

 

606

00:21:13,839 --> 00:21:14,940

or should not be used?

 

607

00:21:14,940 --> 00:21:16,675

I'll say

 

608

00:21:16,675 --> 00:21:17,976

Should not be used.

 

609

00:21:17,976 --> 00:21:20,979

Even better.

 

610

00:21:22,314 --> 00:21:23,582

All right.

 

611

00:21:23,582 --> 00:21:26,351

What industry organizations and standards

 

612

00:21:26,351 --> 00:21:27,386

do you rely on

 

613

00:21:27,386 --> 00:21:30,389

when making installation decisions?

 

614

00:21:30,622 --> 00:21:32,858

Here's what we're looking for.

 

615

00:21:32,858 --> 00:21:35,861

And WFA National Law Association

 

616

00:21:36,028 --> 00:21:38,730

ASTM standards

 

617

00:21:38,730 --> 00:21:41,133

I have no idea what ASTM stands for.

 

618

00:21:41,133 --> 00:21:42,968

I bet you do though.

 

619

00:21:42,968 --> 00:21:45,237

I think it's American scientific

 

620

00:21:45,237 --> 00:21:46,104

testing methods.

 

621

00:21:46,104 --> 00:21:47,306

I think I could be wrong.

 

622

00:21:47,306 --> 00:21:49,574

It's Oh nice

 

623

00:21:50,842 --> 00:21:51,910

manufacturer.

 

624

00:21:51,910 --> 00:21:52,711

Here we go again.

 

625

00:21:52,711 --> 00:21:55,080

Manufacturer installation guidelines.

 

626

00:21:55,080 --> 00:21:58,684

Awareness of industry best practices.

 

627

00:21:59,751 --> 00:22:00,919

And think of everything

 

628

00:22:00,919 --> 00:22:03,922

that's happened with adhesives and,

 

629

00:22:04,022 --> 00:22:04,990

moisture

 

630

00:22:04,990 --> 00:22:05,991

mitigation systems

 

631

00:22:05,991 --> 00:22:08,994

and everything in the last ten years.

 

632

00:22:09,428 --> 00:22:10,629

The changes.

 

633

00:22:10,629 --> 00:22:13,465

American Society for testing, materials,

 

634

00:22:13,465 --> 00:22:14,633

testing and materials.

 

635

00:22:14,633 --> 00:22:16,735

Well, I American society.

 

636

00:22:16,735 --> 00:22:19,604

been a long time. Yep.

 

637

00:22:19,604 --> 00:22:20,472

All right, number

 

638

00:22:20,472 --> 00:22:21,973

I think American scientific.

 

639

00:22:21,973 --> 00:22:24,309

I'm going to go with yours.

 

640

00:22:24,309 --> 00:22:26,244

Yours definitely sounded better.

 

641

00:22:26,244 --> 00:22:28,313

Yeah.

 

642

00:22:28,313 --> 00:22:28,880

Well, I told you,

 

643

00:22:28,880 --> 00:22:29,815

I know a lot about the leading

 

644

00:22:29,815 --> 00:22:30,549

frost effect,

 

645

00:22:30,549 --> 00:22:31,750

which is another scientific.

 

646

00:22:31,750 --> 00:22:34,753

 

 

647

00:22:38,623 --> 00:22:40,625

Nice.

 

648

00:22:40,625 --> 00:22:42,561

Number seven, if a homeowner tells you

 

649

00:22:42,561 --> 00:22:44,329

their floor is squeaking, what steps

 

650

00:22:44,329 --> 00:22:47,332

do you take to identify the root cause?

 

651

00:22:47,366 --> 00:22:49,067

What are you looking for?

 

652

00:22:49,067 --> 00:22:50,902

Investigate investigation

 

653

00:22:50,902 --> 00:22:52,838

before proposing a solution.

 

654

00:22:52,838 --> 00:22:53,905

Understanding of subfloor

 

655

00:22:53,905 --> 00:22:55,774

movement, fastener issues,

 

656

00:22:55,774 --> 00:22:57,142

moisture related causes,

 

657

00:22:57,142 --> 00:22:58,377

and structural factors.

 

658

00:23:00,379 --> 00:23:01,246

You ever

 

659

00:23:01,246 --> 00:23:01,813

try to talcum

 

660

00:23:01,813 --> 00:23:03,548

powder between, between the boards

 

661

00:23:03,548 --> 00:23:05,016

when they're squeaking?

 

662

00:23:05,016 --> 00:23:05,384

That it would.

 

663

00:23:05,384 --> 00:23:07,986

Stairs.

 

664

00:23:07,986 --> 00:23:09,921

Yeah.

 

665

00:23:09,921 --> 00:23:10,589

Well.

 

666

00:23:10,589 --> 00:23:12,257

Yeah.

 

667

00:23:12,257 --> 00:23:15,260

It worked for as long as we were there.

 

668

00:23:17,396 --> 00:23:18,463

Got it.

 

669

00:23:18,463 --> 00:23:19,931

Got out.

 

670

00:23:19,931 --> 00:23:22,934

And it's good for your feet.

 

671

00:23:26,538 --> 00:23:29,307

All right, here we go.

 

672

00:23:29,307 --> 00:23:30,675

How do you evaluate?

 

673

00:23:30,675 --> 00:23:32,010

Oh, let me try that again.

 

674

00:23:32,010 --> 00:23:32,811

How do we

 

675

00:23:32,811 --> 00:23:36,381

how do you evaluate a wood floor failure

 

676

00:23:36,748 --> 00:23:37,315

and determine

 

677

00:23:37,315 --> 00:23:38,316

whether it was caused

 

678

00:23:38,316 --> 00:23:41,219

by the product installation

 

679

00:23:41,219 --> 00:23:43,989

or site conditions?

 

680

00:23:43,989 --> 00:23:46,992

Here's what we're looking for.

 

681

00:23:47,392 --> 00:23:49,094

Moisture readings, site

 

682

00:23:49,094 --> 00:23:52,364

inspection process documentation

 

683

00:23:53,465 --> 00:23:56,468

elimination of variables.

 

684

00:23:56,835 --> 00:24:01,139

Knowledgeable that most failures are site

 

685

00:24:01,139 --> 00:24:04,142

condition related.

 

686

00:24:07,212 --> 00:24:07,712

Knowledge?

 

687

00:24:07,712 --> 00:24:09,681

Yeah, I should have worn my glasses

 

688

00:24:09,681 --> 00:24:12,651

for that one.

 

689

00:24:14,152 --> 00:24:16,888

That was me.

 

690

00:24:16,888 --> 00:24:18,557

That was me.

 

691

00:24:18,557 --> 00:24:19,991

And you definitely

 

692

00:24:19,991 --> 00:24:21,226

are the main one on the show.

 

693

00:24:21,226 --> 00:24:21,893

But you know what?

 

694

00:24:21,893 --> 00:24:23,728

More people are telling me that,

 

695

00:24:23,728 --> 00:24:24,729

you know,

 

696

00:24:24,729 --> 00:24:27,899

I, I think I think Wayne is just.

 

697

00:24:28,133 --> 00:24:29,801

Yeah, he's getting old,

 

698

00:24:29,801 --> 00:24:30,936

getting ready to retire.

 

699

00:24:30,936 --> 00:24:31,870

He's hearing that a lot.

 

700

00:24:57,229 --> 00:24:58,864

That's what we're going to ask that guy.

 

701

00:24:58,864 --> 00:25:01,132

 

 

702

00:25:01,132 --> 00:25:03,101

Number ten.

 

703

00:25:03,101 --> 00:25:05,103

Number ten.

 

704

00:25:05,103 --> 00:25:06,371

If you walked into a job site

 

705

00:25:06,371 --> 00:25:09,741

and found the slab testing at 92 RH,

 

706

00:25:10,642 --> 00:25:13,645

what would you do?

 

707

00:25:13,845 --> 00:25:15,981

Here's what we're looking for.

 

708

00:25:15,981 --> 00:25:18,450

Refusal to install without

 

709

00:25:18,450 --> 00:25:20,585

addressing moisture.

 

710

00:25:20,585 --> 00:25:22,654

Recommendation of a moisture

 

711

00:25:22,654 --> 00:25:24,990

mitigation system.

 

712

00:25:24,990 --> 00:25:27,993

Reference to manufacturer limits

 

713

00:25:28,660 --> 00:25:30,562

and risk awareness

 

714

00:25:30,562 --> 00:25:33,532

regarding future failures.

 

715

00:25:34,099 --> 00:25:34,533

You know,

 

716

00:25:34,533 --> 00:25:36,134

that is one of my favorite things

 

717

00:25:36,134 --> 00:25:38,003

to talk about

 

718

00:25:38,003 --> 00:25:40,171

when I'm doing these offs

 

719

00:25:40,171 --> 00:25:43,174

is our moisture mitigation systems.

 

720

00:25:44,409 --> 00:25:46,611

I just love that at all.

 

721

00:25:46,611 --> 00:25:48,146

No, we don't trap moisture.

 

722

00:25:48,146 --> 00:25:50,148

We're not a moisture barrier.

 

723

00:25:50,148 --> 00:25:51,850

We control it.

 

724

00:25:51,850 --> 00:25:53,552

We let it pass through,

 

725

00:25:53,552 --> 00:25:54,452

doesn't disrupt

 

726

00:25:54,452 --> 00:25:57,289

the structural integrity of the wood.

 

727

00:25:57,289 --> 00:25:58,723

It just makes so much sense.

 

728

00:25:58,723 --> 00:26:00,025

It's such an easy thing

 

729

00:26:00,025 --> 00:26:02,127

to explain to homeowners

 

730

00:26:02,127 --> 00:26:05,297

about rather than a moisture barrier

 

731

00:26:05,397 --> 00:26:06,932

trapping moisture

 

732

00:26:06,932 --> 00:26:08,900

and then causing issues down the road.

 

733

00:26:34,392 --> 00:26:37,395

They they don't breathe.

 

734

00:26:37,762 --> 00:26:38,496

They don't breathe.

 

735

00:26:38,496 --> 00:26:39,698

They just trap everything.

 

736

00:26:39,698 --> 00:26:41,967

Yeah.

 

737

00:26:41,967 --> 00:26:42,901

question,

 

738

00:26:42,901 --> 00:26:45,537

I'd ask a five inch engineered floor

 

739

00:26:45,537 --> 00:26:46,871

being installed over concrete

 

740

00:26:46,871 --> 00:26:48,840

in a home maintain at 35%

 

741

00:26:48,840 --> 00:26:50,976

RH during the winter

 

742

00:26:50,976 --> 00:26:53,979

and 65% RH during summertime.

 

743

00:26:54,279 --> 00:26:55,380

What movement concerns

 

744

00:26:55,380 --> 00:26:58,383

would you discuss with the homeowner?

 

745

00:26:58,650 --> 00:27:00,118

So that I'm looking for

 

746

00:27:00,118 --> 00:27:01,853

seasonal expansion and contraction

 

747

00:27:01,853 --> 00:27:04,422

discussions, gapping expectations,

 

748

00:27:04,422 --> 00:27:05,423

humidity control

 

749

00:27:05,423 --> 00:27:06,591

recommendations,

 

750

00:27:06,591 --> 00:27:08,793

maintaining that 35 to 55 indoor

 

751

00:27:08,793 --> 00:27:10,295

RH year round.

 

752

00:27:10,295 --> 00:27:11,296

So

 

753

00:27:11,296 --> 00:27:12,631

so any you know

 

754

00:27:12,631 --> 00:27:14,766

I think these are like fair questions

 

755

00:27:14,766 --> 00:27:15,266

for a guy.

 

756

00:27:15,266 --> 00:27:16,267

You know

 

757

00:27:16,267 --> 00:27:17,902

coming in as a journeyman

 

758

00:27:17,902 --> 00:27:20,205

just because how else would you know.

 

759

00:27:20,205 --> 00:27:20,639

You can say

 

760

00:27:20,639 --> 00:27:23,642

I worked for so-and-so for ten years

 

761

00:27:23,842 --> 00:27:24,676

okay. Cool.

 

762

00:27:24,676 --> 00:27:27,312

And pictures of you work at that's cool.

 

763

00:27:27,312 --> 00:27:28,913

But I also think I just kind

 

764

00:27:28,913 --> 00:27:30,682

of, you know, again, you can

 

765

00:27:33,251 --> 00:27:33,551

Yeah.

 

766

00:27:33,551 --> 00:27:34,919

He might have work for so-and-so,

 

767

00:27:34,919 --> 00:27:36,855

but he could have been the dust bag guy.

 

768

00:27:36,855 --> 00:27:39,858

Paper cutter.

 

769

00:27:42,861 --> 00:27:45,697

Yeah, right.

 

770

00:27:45,697 --> 00:27:46,798

of things.

 

771

00:27:46,798 --> 00:27:47,432

And you listen,

 

772

00:27:47,432 --> 00:27:49,367

you could be in a trade for a long, long,

 

773

00:27:49,367 --> 00:27:51,469

long time

 

774

00:27:51,469 --> 00:27:53,004

and not have an appreciation

 

775

00:27:53,004 --> 00:27:53,638

of these things

 

776

00:27:53,638 --> 00:27:56,107

because you, you know,

 

777

00:27:56,107 --> 00:27:58,076

you're there to do the work.

 

778

00:27:58,076 --> 00:27:59,711

And the guy just says, go and you go

 

779

00:27:59,711 --> 00:28:00,679

or he says, don't go.

 

780

00:28:00,679 --> 00:28:03,114

And we don't go,

 

781

00:28:03,114 --> 00:28:04,949

Right.

 

782

00:28:04,949 --> 00:28:06,017

just following orders and,

 

783

00:28:06,017 --> 00:28:07,018

you know, doing your job,

 

784

00:28:07,018 --> 00:28:08,687

you can be a great journeyman,

 

785

00:28:08,687 --> 00:28:09,821

but you don't get involved

 

786

00:28:09,821 --> 00:28:11,923

in these conversations because,

 

787

00:28:11,923 --> 00:28:13,391

it's somebody else's job,

 

788

00:28:13,391 --> 00:28:15,360

the estimator or the owner or whatever.

 

789

00:28:15,360 --> 00:28:16,828

And you're just doing the,

 

790

00:28:16,828 --> 00:28:19,264

the actual work. So.

 

791

00:28:19,264 --> 00:28:21,599

But that's why I think it's

 

792

00:28:21,599 --> 00:28:23,101

it's good to know, ev of

 

793

00:28:24,469 --> 00:28:25,437

no matter what.

 

794

00:28:25,437 --> 00:28:26,971

And knowledge of everything you can.

 

795

00:28:26,971 --> 00:28:29,040

It involves what we do every day, right?

 

796

00:28:29,040 --> 00:28:30,975

I mean, we do this every day

 

797

00:28:30,975 --> 00:28:31,576

for a living.

 

798

00:28:31,576 --> 00:28:33,111

So I think the more, the more knowledge

 

799

00:28:33,111 --> 00:28:36,114

we we pick

 

800

00:28:37,816 --> 00:28:40,351

All righty.

 

801

00:28:40,351 --> 00:28:42,654

I'm done.

 

802

00:28:42,654 --> 00:28:44,689

I'm done.

 

803

00:28:44,689 --> 00:28:45,123

What do you get?

 

804

00:28:45,123 --> 00:28:48,093

Anything else?

 

805

00:28:48,226 --> 00:28:50,929

All right.

 

806

00:28:50,929 --> 00:28:51,262

Yeah.

 

807

00:28:51,262 --> 00:28:52,297

Let's send this one up.

 

808

00:28:52,297 --> 00:28:55,300

Another award winning rap.

 

809

00:29:01,372 --> 00:29:02,440

Do another try.

 

810

00:29:02,440 --> 00:29:04,676

Try it your way.

 

811

00:29:04,676 --> 00:29:05,944

This has been another episode

 

812

00:29:05,944 --> 00:29:07,545

of the Wayne Highlander show.

 

813

00:29:07,545 --> 00:29:09,013

Thanks for tuning in.

 

814

00:29:09,013 --> 00:29:10,815

And we'll see you next week.

 

815

00:29:10,815 --> 00:29:13,785

If to go ahead, do it.

 

816

00:29:13,785 --> 00:29:15,353

Absolutely.

 

817

00:29:15,353 --> 00:29:16,855

Yeah. No. I'm fine.

 

818

00:29:16,855 --> 00:29:19,858

I told you to do it.

 

819

00:29:22,961 --> 00:29:25,964

Do it.

 

820

00:29:38,643 --> 00:29:39,177

Yeah,

 

821

00:29:39,177 --> 00:29:40,812

I'll be the cameraman

 

822

00:29:40,812 --> 00:29:43,014

just so you can talk to me.

 

823

00:29:43,014 --> 00:29:44,182

Remember Letterman?

 

824

00:29:44,182 --> 00:29:46,217

David Letterman used to talk to him.

 

825

00:29:46,217 --> 00:29:47,752

His cameramen, all the time.

 

826

00:29:47,752 --> 00:29:48,787

They. It was funny.

 

827

00:29:52,290 --> 00:29:53,792

Or you know what?

 

828

00:29:53,792 --> 00:29:55,093

Instead of doing that,

 

829

00:29:55,093 --> 00:29:57,028

maybe it's the Wayne Highlander

 

830

00:29:57,028 --> 00:29:58,863

show, and I'll have, like, a band,

 

831

00:29:58,863 --> 00:30:00,799

you know, I'll. I'll do the music.

 

832

00:30:00,799 --> 00:30:03,802

I'll be your music guy.

 

833

00:30:09,607 --> 00:30:12,243

The Rob Johnson show.

 

834

00:30:12,243 --> 00:30:14,612

There will be absolutely nothing

 

835

00:30:14,612 --> 00:30:17,582

about flaws on the Rob Johnson Show.

 

836

00:30:17,649 --> 00:30:20,919

It'll be about movies and barbecue.

 

837

00:30:21,152 --> 00:30:23,154

Maybe some music.

 

838

00:30:23,154 --> 00:30:24,856

Yeah, they would.

 

839

00:30:24,856 --> 00:30:26,991

There'd be nothing about wood floors

 

840

00:30:26,991 --> 00:30:29,994

in there.

 

841

00:30:38,403 --> 00:30:41,039

Em's premenstrual.

 

842

00:30:41,039 --> 00:30:44,042

Isn't that premenstrual syndrome?

 

843

00:30:47,045 --> 00:30:52,283

PMA no, no, I I it's impossible.

 

844

00:30:52,584 --> 00:30:54,619

It's impossible for me to get PMS.

 

845

00:30:54,619 --> 00:30:55,954

Can't happen.

 

846

00:30:55,954 --> 00:30:57,388

Yeah,

 

847

00:30:57,388 --> 00:31:00,391

it can't happen.

 

848

00:31:04,429 --> 00:31:06,464

Of the show.

 

849

00:31:06,464 --> 00:31:07,632

All right.

 

850

00:31:07,632 --> 00:31:09,934

This has been another episode of the Rob

 

851

00:31:09,934 --> 00:31:11,636

Johnson podcast.

 

852

00:31:11,636 --> 00:31:14,639

Please stay tuned for another episode.

 

853

00:31:18,209 --> 00:31:19,777

Oh, in a second.

 

854

00:31:19,777 --> 00:31:20,078

Yeah.
