BUCKS N' BUSINESS

Episode 4, we sit down with the crew from Down To Earth Dirtworks out of Willmar, MN. We get into how they got started, what it takes to run jobs day to day, and what bidding work really looks like when you’re still figuring it out.We talk equipment, GPS systems, taking chances on machines, and the shift from working for someone to building something of your own. Along the way, there’s plenty of jobsite stories, lessons learned the hard way, and a few situations that definitely didn’t go as planned.

In Episode 3, we bring on Preston Veith to talk through real life in the trades, close calls on the job, and why most podcasts don’t make it past 3 episodes. From job site stories to elk hunts, turkey tactics, and waterfowl season, this one covers a little bit of everything. Just three guys talking about work, the outdoors, and the experiences that come with them.

In Episode #2 of Bucks N’ Business we welcome our first guest, Nate Neeser. Nate works as a highway inspector for the State of Minnesota and gives us a behind-the-scenes look at the government side of road construction.We dive into how highway projects actually work, dealing with contractors, change orders, rain delays, and what it takes to keep large infrastructure jobs moving forward.We also talk about the realities of working long hours in the construction industry, building relationships on job sites, and how trust and communication can make or break a project.Like always, the conversation eventually shifts into hunting, fishing, and planning western hunts. From mule deer in Wyoming to Midwest whitetail hunting and ice fishing stories, this episode covers a little bit of everything.Grab a drink, sit back, and enjoy Episode #2 of Bucks N’ Business.

This is Episode 1 of Bucks N’ Business. We break down our work in the heavy equipment industry, lessons from the field, and swap a few hunting stories. Somewhere along the way, we forgot to talk about the name of the podcast. Turns out running equipment is easier than running a podcast.
