  • DorkCast Episode 36 - Design Assist... Or Design Rescue
    In this episode of the DorkCast we welcome back Alex Belkofer who approached us with the idea of talking about what’s been going wrong in the world of Design Assist contract delivery. Alex is fresh off the DBIA conference so was fired up and wanted to lead this conversation. To round it out we invited in Josh Hudson and Adam Davis to bring even more insight from the side of the trades. This is a fun discussion with some very passionate people so, without further ado, away we go. Please share and help the Dork movement grow.

  • DorkCast Episode 35 - The Dorks and Their Hobbies
    Here we are, finally, another episode of the Construction DorkCast released on our almost semiregular schedule, sort of. The Dorks believe in being well rounded and attempting to find balance in life and, in light of that, we brought in Jon’s doppelganger Aaron Krovance…. Or maybe Jon is Aaron’s doppelganger. You be the judge. Anyway, the point of this episode is to talk about the things we do when we’re not being construction nerds. Aaron tells a great story about the time he owned the world of grocery bagging and we realize that Jon’s hobby is just hobbies. Hopefully this episode inspires you to get a range of interests and maybe you have a laugh or two as well. Thanks for listening and enjoy!

    Thank you for tuning into episode 32 of the Construction DorkCast, We are Mad about Innovation. In this episode we nerd out with Steve Whitmer of ACCO and Jeff Elwell of EM Duggan to hear about how two of the more “mad” scientists are approaching tech and innovation within their companies. As always these conversations are inspiring and fun and maybe a little bit therapeutic as we all laugh at our Shared Pains.
