In this end-of-year wrap-up, hosts Scott Lowman and JP Scott reflect on Beyond the Build: Innovation in Construction’s first year, what surprised them, what challenged them, and what genuinely stuck. They revisit the guests and moments that shaped their thinking, from the human side of jobsite safety to the urgency of protecting craft knowledge in the trades, and the real-world tension between being data-rich and insight-poor.


They also share a few behind-the-scenes realities: starting a podcast without really knowing what they were doing, what it’s like asking people for their time, and why applied knowledge has become the throughline of the show.


Looking ahead to 2026, they outline a clearer focus: going deeper into the equipment rental world and the day-to-day operational chaos their customers live in so listeners can hear what’s working, what isn’t, and what tools and tactics are actually making a difference.


Previous guests include: Ben Bradshaw of Genie, Lindsey Trent of Next Generation in Trucking Association (NGT), Alex Poe of Chambr, Mike Murphy of Ally Fuels Inc., Galiano Tiramani of Boxabl
