In today's episode, join Charles Dobens as he dissects the mysteries surrounding construction productivity. Charles talks about a Freakonomics podcast episode titled "Why is it so hard and expensive to build anything in America?"

Charles discusses how construction productivity in the U.S. has flatlined since the 1960s, leading to increased costs. The factors contributing to this include regulations, lack of incentives, internal and external factors, and the absence of mass production in the construction industry. He mentions a study that highlights the impact of land use regulations and the need for changes in mindset to address the issue. 

Focusing on the effects of regulations, industry practices, and the absence of incentives, Dobens navigates through the complexities that contribute to stagnant construction output.
