In this episode, I'm joined by Russ, a third-generation tradesman, business owner, and host of The Talking Tradesman podcast. Russ has spent a lifetime in construction, a sector known for its tough culture and silent battles, especially around mental health. He shares his powerful journey, starting with his childhood, where he was raised by his father after his mother left the family, leaving Russ to grow up fast and take on responsibilities beyond his years. At just 17, Russ took over the family business, but behind his professional success, he was struggling.After a painful divorce, Russ was forced to confront his own mental health challenges, Through candid reflection, Russ talks about the toll of balancing work and mental well-being in a tough industry that can be lonely and often discourages vulnerability with many men developing problems with alcohol and drug dependency, aggression and depression. His own journey has pushed him to study psychology, volunteer with Samaritans, and eventually start a podcast that aims to open up vital conversations within the trades.Russ emphasises that many men do want to talk but often don't have a safe space to do so. He shares insights on why listening - truly listening - without judgement is a powerful first step in supporting those who are struggling. Whether you're in construction, know someone who is, or just want a deeper understanding of how mental health impacts those around you, Russ's story will leave you with valuable insights and practical advice on creating safe spaces for honest conversations. Join us for an episode that's all about strength, vulnerability, and the surprising power of simply being there.Russ's podcast is called The Talking Tradesman.

On this episode of The Construction Record Podcast, digital media editor Warren Frey speaks with ConstructConnect director of news media Vince Versace about the long history of the humble hard hat. Invented by American Edward W. Bullard in 1918 the hardhat is both the first and one of the most vital pieces of safety equipment on site and an iconic, instantly recognizable symbol of the construction industry. From its origins as an overlapping layer of canvas and glue to its current iteration, hardhats haved saved lives and prevented injuries for countless workers over the past century.

Compilation of every MONKEY NEWS segment from The Ricky Gervais Show PODCAST which came after the Xfm show. Once again, Karl Pilkington brings the most newsworthy and entertaining monkey or ape-related stories to his two best buddies, Ricky Gervais and Stephen Merchant, who provide comedic commentary. This is one of Karl Pilkington's most beloved features. Monkeys are near and dear to Karl's simian heart. He spent much of his time during the XFM years sitting at home, looking up spurious monkey facts on the Internet. He would then share this unreliable monkey-related drivel with Ricky & Steve, who, over time, became increasingly irate at Karl's evermore outlandish monkey musings.

“The client's role is not to solve the problem — it's to state the problem.”What's the client's perspective in major cultural projects? What are “client user groups?” What's the difference between advocating for the client, and advocating for the project?

"Thank God for the hard hats!" declared Richard Nixon during his first term. "Why the construction workers holler, ‘U. S. A., all the way!,'" read a 1970 New York Times headline. "The Day the White Working Class Turned Republican," read another New York Times headline, 50 years later in 2020. We're now more than five decades since this narrative first arose: The hardhats love America, and the hippies hate it. Whether Nixon or Trump is in the White House, news media, film, and TV tell us that the working class—good, honest blue-collar folk—are people of God, family, and country, unlike those spoiled, rich, out-of-touch lefty elites. This binary framework is presented as organic, the result of working people and unions feeling left out by the lofty exclusivism of the Left.
