Welcome back to the AddWork: No Worries Podcast—the #1 business and construction trades podcast in the U.S. After a short break, we're back with co-founders Ken, Grant Jeffery, and Adam Deetz diving into some of the biggest conversations shaping the industry today.

In this episode, we cover:

• How the government shutdown could ripple through residential and commercial construction.

• Why market perception affects projects just as much as real economic shifts.

• The growing impact of AI on jobs—from white-collar efficiency to blue-collar resilience.

• The looming labor shortage in the trades and what it means for the next generation.

• Real-life stories from the jobsite (yes, including a guy named Chucky with a Natural Ice in his tool belt).

Whether you're a contractor, developer, tradesperson, or just curious about how business and building intersect, this episode brings fresh insights and plenty of real talk from the field.
