Mike Dokell has spent the past 30 years in the business of tearing down houses, office towers and other commercial buildings, but he rarely uses the word "demolition." In his industry, when you demolish a building you "wreck it." When you fill it with explosives and blow it up, you "shoot it." No matter the lingo, Dokell's mind is a treasure trove of all things destruction. The vice president of demolition for Cherry Cos. joins Nancy and Allyn to talk about wrecking houses post-Hurricane Harvey, how it's done and where all that rubble goes.
