In this milestone 100th episode of Hoots on the Ground with No Bullshido, the microphone gets flipped. Mike Chiles takes over as host and interviews Adam Hoots, bringing the podcast full circle from Episode 1 and creating space to pause, reflect, learn, and look ahead. Adam revisits the beginning of the show and the trust Joe Donarumo and Keyan Zandy placed in him to bring a field-first voice to The Lean Builder. What began as a podcast focused on translating Lean concepts into language builders could actually use became something much bigger: a four-year learning journey about people, leadership, health, faith, relationships, and the responsibility leaders have to improve the lives of the people doing the work. The conversation gets deeply personal as Adam reflects on the 48-day hospitalization that stopped his fast-moving consulting career in its tracks, the loss of his transplanted kidney, dialysis, and the eventual kidney transplant that gave him another chance. He shares how Buddy Brumley became an anchor during that season and helped pull The Old Dawg Lean Thesaurus out of him while simultaneously challenging Adam to see Lean as something far greater than a collection of tools. Mike and Adam revisit the people and conversations that shaped the first 100 episodes, including lessons from Buddy Brumley, Jesse Hernandez, Felipe Engineer-Manriquez, Mack Story, Jeff Reilly, Brent Darnell, Boone White, Gabe Lightner, and many others. The recurring lesson is clear: construction does not transform through tools alone. It transforms when leaders develop themselves, genuinely see the humans doing the work, and create environments where those people can flourish. Adam also finally defines the phrase that has lived in the show's title for 100 episodes: "bullshido." Borrowed from the martial arts world, it describes what happens when ideas are mixed, repackaged, and separated from their original meaning. For Adam, Lean becomes bullshido when tools, certifications, jargon, and consultant-driven systems become more important than the frontline people they were supposed to serve. The episode then turns toward the future. Adam announces that Hoots on the Ground with No Bullshido is beginning to sunset as the mission expands beyond one person and beyond the word Lean. The next chapter is centered on the Old Dawg Builders community and the Old Dawg Leadership Podcast: builders building builders, sharing construction wisdom with the next generation, and developing leaders who improve themselves first, others second, and ultimately their teams, companies, and industry. After 100 episodes, this is not a goodbye. It is a reflection on where the journey started, gratitude for everyone who helped shape it, and a declaration that the work is only beginning. KEY TAKEAWAYS: •         Pause, Reflect, Learn, Share — Reflection is where experience begins turning into wisdom. Episode 100 intentionally looks backward so those lessons can be carried forward. •         Continuous Improvement for the Betterment of People — Lean is not improvement for improvement's sake. The purpose is to create greater value and better conditions for the humans doing the work. •         Develop the Capability to Develop Capability — Leadership is not about becoming the person with every answer. It is about creating environments where other people can learn, grow, solve problems, and eventually develop others. •         Respect Must End in Human Flourishing — Respect for people cannot stop at slogans, kindness, or jobsite rules. The ultimate test is whether the people in the system are actually becoming better and flourishing at work and at home. •         Leadership Requires Range — Laissez-faire, transactional, and transformational leadership all have a place. The challenge is understanding the person, situation, and purpose well enough to know which approach is needed. •         Between Stimulus and Response Is a Choice — Emotional intelligence requires awareness and regulation. Leaders can learn to pause, select their response, and act intentionally rather than simply react. •         Beware of Bullshido — Lean loses its meaning when tools, certifications, jargon, and consultant-created variations become more important than the people doing the work. •         Leadership Lives on the Ground — Leadership is found in the mud, meetings, sweat, tears, conversations, and daily interactions where builders either create suffering or create environments where people can succeed. •         Build Yourself Before Building Others — Personal mindfulness and character come first. The progression is yourself first, others second, and the team, company, and industry third. •         The Next Chapter Is Bigger Than Hoots — The future is about community, leadership, wisdom transfer, and builders building builders through the Old Dawg Builders community.

ABOUT HOOTS ON THE GROUND PODCAST: The Lean Builder's absolutely, positively NO Bullshido podcast. Join host Adam Hoots and his guests as they dig deep into the topics that matter most to those in the field. With stories from the trenches, lessons learned, and plenty of laughter, this podcast is for the men and women doing the hands-on work of construction.

In this no-bullshido episode of Hoots on the Ground, Adam Hoots sits down with "Old Dog" Jeff Reilly—a devoted father, husband, and superintendent with Mill Creek Residential Trust whose leadership philosophy bridges family, craftsmanship, and continuous improvement. From his Boston union roots to leading modern Lean projects, Jeff shares how lessons from his ancestors, parents, and mentors shaped his mindset on respect, environment, and the true meaning of Kaizen. Together, Adam and Jeff dig deep into what it means to balance family, work, and wisdom in today's construction world. They explore how true leadership comes from presence—not just productivity—and why the best Lean builders know that mentors don't always know that they're mentors. From developing young leaders to honoring the OG Old Dawgs Buddy Brumley and Mondo 3K, this conversation reminds us that Lean is more than tools—it's a mindset built on humanity, humility, and legacy. Key Takeaways: • Family-First Leadership: Jeff draws strength from his union roots and family traditions, building teams the same way his parents built him: with presence, purpose, and pride. • Kaizen with Purpose: Lean isn't about checklists or buzzwords; it's about creating environments that respect people, improve daily, and flow with intention. • Mentors Matter: Every worker is conditioning someone else; be self-aware enough to model the example you wish you'd had.   Key Quotes: • "Presence builds people. Productivity is just the result." • "Lean isn't tools—it's how you show up for your team." • "Your kids and your crew need the same thing: your time and your attention." • "Every Old Dawg was once a young pup watching someone else." • "Environment is leadership—design a space where people can succeed."   ABOUT HOOTS ON THE GROUND PODCAST: The Lean Builder's absolutely, positively NO Bullshido podcast.

Greg Williams is a person in long term recovery. Early on in his journey he witnessed challenges w/ others finding and sustaining recovery and became frustrated with people not looking at the real problems and issues, but rather making a lot of excuses. While in film school, Greg learned that in order to make a good documentary you needed access to unique subject matter. It was out of his access to positive, solution oriented stories that his passion for making documentaries about recovery was born.Greg has spent his career highlighting addiction recovery stories through a series of projects, including documentaries, concerts and live events. He produced the documentaries The Anonymous People, Generation Found and most recently, Tipping the Pain Scale alongside the immensely talented, Jeff Reilly.On this episode of the podcast, we talk with Greg about all of his projects and we get his perspective on the community response to the addiction crisis. Greg has been a part of some groundbreaking events focused on ending the stigma of addiction and has documented the courageous people who use their personal stories to participate in the democratic process and effectively change the public opinion about addiction.**Turning Point of Tampa and the Hazelden Betty Ford Foundation are co-hosting a screening of Tipping the Pain Scale in celebration of National Recovery Month.

CBC music producer Jeff Reilly, a longtime friend of Jerry Granelli, remembers the legendary jazz drummer and improvisor who died this week in Halifax at the age of 80.

It can be difficult to be part of a religion that has no creed. What connects us? Inspires us? Guides us? I think it is a set of ideas and principles based on a common theology. The Unitarian Church of Edmonton is a liberal, multi-generational, religious community. We celebrate a rich mosaic of free-thinking, spiritually-questing individuals joined in common support and action. We welcome diversity including diversity of beliefs from divine believers to humanists, from pagans to atheists and agnostics. We believe in the compassion of the human heart, the warmth of community, the pursuit of justice and the search of meaning in our lives. We gather with gratitude on traditional Cree lands that are now a part of Treaty Six and shared by many nations. A treaty is an inheritance, a responsibility and a relationship. May we be good neighbours to one another, good stewards to our planet and good ancestors to our children. Responsive Reading “Reflection on Our Seven Principles” By Michael E.

In this episode of the “Am I Crazy Or Am I Raving” Henry’s Child Podcast where we continue the origin story of Henry’s Child. We start with an examination of Jeff Reilly’s drum beats and how integral he was to the inception of a Henry’s Child “sound”. This also includes how good of a vocalist he was and we demonstrate it with a snippet of “And Then It Came To Me”, an unreleased song. Rich recalls the first show in December of 1993 and starting to record “Drink Me” in March of 1994. Andrew and Rich confess that they were the ultimate Geek band who would often play “Magic The Gathering” before shows with friends and fans. Then there was a choice made to replace Kris on bass. Andrew and Rich go through the list of possible Kris Holm replacements, eventually landing on Thom. Thom tells the story of frequent lunches at Pizza Pete’s in Eugene where he was asked to join Henry’s Child. Thom recalls the first few weeks in Henry’s Child and the CD Release show at John Henry’s, including hitting the wrong note on the first song of the first show he played with the band. We remember Bruce Hartnell (from the Detonators) at John Henry’s and how Tuesday and Wednesday nights were the bands bread-and-butter. Andrew tells the story of how playing at the Satyricon in Portland paved the way for Henry’s Child to play Salem through the unlikely meeting of the band “Solace”. This leads to the beginning of Henry’s Child getting popular. We end this conversation talking about entering the Sonic X-Plosion and getting signed to Elemental Records.

This is the origin story of Henry’s Child, as told by Andrew Smith and Rich Clinton: Andrew Smith met Rob Wynia at a Dungeons and Dragons game. They bonded over one quoting a Rush lyric and the other finishing it. Yes, the Midi-chlorian was high for both of them. With Andrew’s poetry and Rob’s old P-Bass in hand, they started out to put a band together. With Andy Dent on guitar and Pete Cornett on drums, they were formed as Henry’s Child. Choosing a different direction for the band, they parted ways with their guitar player eventually landing with Ed Cole. Ed (who played on the first “Mr. Bungle” record) couldn’t tour due to family duties, which left them with a really good demo but without a long-term guitar player. After this change, they tried out 27 guitar players (mostly metal guys), eventually meeting Rich Clinton. After moving to Oregon, Rich played in a county cover band and was looking for an original project to join.  He found and answered an ad at Andy’s Music (in Eugene) that was placed by Andrew and Rob. After getting the news that Pete was bowing out of the band, Andrew raced over to Rich’s house to tell him the news. That night Andrew and Rich bonded over a song called “In The Basement”, that Rich had written. This was the first song that Andrew and Rich wrote together and we play a little of this unreleased gem in this Podcast. Without a drummer, the guys met Dann Pacheco and start to play with him. Rob leaves the band to work on what would soon become “Floater”. Faced once again with another space to fill, the guys implored Andrew’s roommate, Kris Holm, to play bass. This incarnation became “Algernon”. After parting ways with Dann, it was Pete Cornett that sat on a doorstep for 20 minutes listening to pounding drums to meet Jeff Reilly, who went on to become the drummer for Rich, Andrew and Kris. This solidified the line-up of Henry’s Child the recorded the demo tape “Drink Me” and the 1995 release “Mumbles and Screams”.

In our second “Am I Crazy or Am I Just Raving” Podcast we discuss how “I Will” faded from the Henry’s Child Set List for a long time and became the number one fan-requested song from “Mumbles and Screams”. “I Will” also had the most amount of changes and additions from any other original song, all the way from a Korn-esque metal intro to the induction of Rush’s “Tom Sawyer” and Black Sabbath’s “War Pigs”. We discuss why “I Will” was often referred to as the “Angry Positive Reinforcement Song”. Andrew discusses the duality of Will, telling his personal definition that is a blended meaning: A declaration of Action and having the power and strength to overcome something (especially a personal challenge). Along with this double-meaning is the intensity and fierceness of being a commitment to change. We then have a deep discussion about Jeff Reilly’s unique drum beats and how the drums construct the build-up of the song, beautifully landing this tune from chorus to outro. To wrap it up, we discuss making change and transformation in your life. How the internal versus external struggle occurs and is addressed in the song “I Will”. This is Andrew’s personal challenges being the two verses of the song and the “How to” as the outro of the song. It is fierce because change, at some level, is (not easy) but yet incredibly simple.

PanicStream user Col. Braddock asked for a request that I will not be playing, at least not this week. It occurred to me that his suggestion would make much better fodder for a future themed cast.... but there were some songs from the same show featuring the same guest that would be worth a listen. As I revisited the famous Jorma performance from 2000 I also ran across a relatively recent download of Vic Chesnutt and became inspired. Guests and covers of songs by friends.So away I went, finding a killer FM broadcast that I was not acquainted with featuring some priceless interview tom-foolery by the band. Delving into shows from 1994 I was reminded of one of my favorite Chilly Water performances featuring a 15 year old Derek Trucks on guitar.A very pleasant surprise awaited me when the Everyday Companion pointed me to a benefit show featuring Jimmy Dale Gilmore, Randall Bramblett and Artimus Pyle of Lynyrd Synyrd. The interplay between Houser and Bramblett during Porch Song is nothing short of brilliant.Anyhow, I am rambling - ENJOY - this is one of those 'casts that features something for everybody so turn it up loud.And remember; "I'm John Herman, and I play keyboards."Vic ChesnuttFebruary 16, 1997Muffathalle, Munich, GermanyBlight(authored by David Schools/Michael Houser/Todd Nance/Vic Chesnutt in a little band named brute.)April 8, 1995102.7 WNEW New York, NYInterview ("I'm John Herman")Can't Get High (Bloodkin cover)Ain't Life GrandLet's Get Down to Business (Vic Chesnutt cover)July 4, 2000WarfieldSan Francisco, CAwith Jorma KoukonenBowlegged WomanGenesisOctober 11, 1998Nashville ArenaNashville, TNPorch Song > (with Jimmy Dale Gilmore, Randall Bramblett)Drums(with Artimus Pyle from Lynyrd Synyrd and Jeff Reilly from Randall Bramblett Band)July 21, 1994Stop Go >Entering a Blackhole Backwards >Chilly Water** 15 year old Derek Trucks on Guitar(with 'Thank You Falettinme Be Mice Elf Agin' jam)DOWNLOAD the cast here (right click to save to hard drive):Everyday Companion Podcast #57Click here to subscribe through iTunes.
