Father’s Day 2019 is quickly approaching!  You still have time to buy dear ol’ dad a solid gift.  On this week’s show we gave our take on suggested gifts from this list from Forbes.  Some of the suggestions were decent, others not so much.  We also shared our opinions on Father’s Day as a whole and offered up some suggestions of gifts we’d actually like to receive.

Want to start doing your own car repair and maintenance, but don’t know what tools you need? We’re here to help! On this week’s show we discussed which basic tools are needed to get your ride back on the road. We also did a special car edition of You can, man. TRIVIA (see bottom of post)!  This episode was the same format as Episode 002.

On this week’s show we started what we hope will become a regular show topic, Ask Us Anything.  We’re asking YOU to submit your questions!  Can we always answer those questions definitively?  That’s questionable, but we’ll give it our best shot.

The topics covered on this episode run the gamut from carpenter bees, beard oil, laying tile, snorting Coca Cola, to letting someone borrow tools that will likely touch poo water.  Give it a listen!

Do you have a load-bearing wall you’ve been wanting to take out?  On this week’s show we talked all about the anatomy of a load-bearing wall and what it takes to make it disappear.  Our discussion was far from exhaustive, but we hope it gives you the confidence to take on the job.

We threw out some terminology and said we’d post some visuals on the show notes to explain.  Here’s a basic (yet very P.E.) sketch Dave did with some labels.

Do you know how to tackle clogged pipes? On this week’s show we discussed how to keep those pipes flowin’ free. Join us as we talk backed-up toilets, sinks, bathtubs, and the dreaded main sewer line. Don’t let your first thought be calling the plumber. Do it yourself! You can, man.

We also welcomed a guest on the show – our good friend Matt. He recently dealt with a major main sewer line backup and tells us all about it. The above image is the powered snake from Harbor Freight Tools that Tim let Matt borrow.

We’re rounding out our New House Know-How series this week with special guest, James.  He’s a good buddy of ours and new homeowner.  Listen in as we discuss his renovation woes and triumphs.  James is a You can, man. success story with his freshly acquired DIY skills.  We talk everything from load-bearing walls to bacterial meningitis.  It’s a doozy.

Dave and Tim helped James with his load-bearing walls project at his new house. The image above is James just after we owned those two walls and had removed the temp walls. You can, man!
