The crew is back from Montreal, and Episode #118 kicks off with a debrief on what it's like returning to the grind after the high energy of the convention floor. Matt, Ashley, Charles, and Gregg dive right into the pulse of the lumber market: is it ready to roll over, or are we seeing glimmers of strength under the surface? They break down key indicators from the field—what species look like a buy, what's dragging, and what might surprise to the upside. From SYP to SPF and beyond, the gang weighs in on what they're moving and what they're steering clear of. Plus, are customers quietly building inventory or continuing to run lean? The answer might impact how you trade the next few weeks. This one is packed with real-time lumber market guidance. If you're in the game—or want to be—you'll walk away with sharp trading insights and maybe even a better idea of how the second quarter is shaping up. Don't miss it!

For UK alternative metal band, Acres, 2025 has already been a significant year, and their momentum shows no signs of slowing down any time soon. Not only are they due to head back to the US for a massive tour with The Devil Wears Prada but they will release their brand-new album, ‘The Host', on May 2nd. 2025, via Solid State Records. The US is becoming a bit of a second home for the band, as not only were they recently there touring with The Plot in You, but in October 2024, they hopped over the pond to record become ‘The Host'. This with none other than The Plot in You frontman Landon Tewers behind the board as producer. Acres has always strived to create something fresh and new, and that is once again proven by this new album. An album that sees the band expand their sonic palette and deliver some of their most anthemic music yet. We delved into the background of the album, learning more about the creative journey Acres have been on, and what Landon Tewers was able to get out of them. We also talk about the US tours, their growth, personal satisfaction with what they're doing right now, and so much more.

Roland H. Hartley was a prominent politician and lumberman who was elected mayor of Everett in 1910–1911, served as a member of the Washington State House of Representatives in 1915–1916, and then as the 10th governor of the State of Washington from 1925–1933.  Despite his small frame, he was a political showman and a fiery orator whose colorful words were frequently removed from the official record.  His fight to remove what he called waste and luxury in government characterized his political career as a conservative Republican.  He regularly exploited his veto power to impose his political agenda and detested taxation, government spending, and unions.  He fought with the majority of his elected colleagues on labor, education, and the lumber business during his two turbulent terms as governor.Listen now to learn more about this lumber baron turned State Governor!This episode is part of the ongoing monthly series highlighting Evergreen State Governors

“Travel does not require leaving your city or state or country, but it does require leaving your comfort zone. And that can happen a block or two away from where you live.” –Chloe Cooper Jones In this episode of Deviate, Rolf and Chloe talk about why a section about “slum tourism” was cut out of Rolf’s newest book The Vagabond’s Way (2:30); how so much of what we talk about when we talk about travel has industrialized middle-class presumptions (7:30); the motivations and ethical considerations that underpin seeking out disadvantaged neighborhoods as a traveler (15:00); how preconceived narratives and “cultural extraction” often motivates people’s experience in a city, in ways that do not always benefit the city (25:00); what “dark tourism” and “voluntourism” are, and what the ethical ramifications are for travelers (32:00); and the difference between articulating ideals, and the work of acting on those ideals (45:00). Chloe Cooper Jones (@CCooperJones) is the author of Easy Beauty: A Memoir. She has been a Pulitzer Prize finalist in Feature Writing, and was the recipient of a Whiting Creative Nonfiction Grant, as well as a Howard Foundation Grant from Brown University.

In the latest episode of The Chad & Cheese Podcast, hosts Joel Cheesman and Chad Sowash dive into a mix of serious industry shifts and quirky tangents. They unpack Indeed's traffic decline—down due to a 10% drop in job postings and competition from platforms like LinkedIn—while noting its erratic market moves and a pivot to online courses that's missing the mark with tech candidates. History lesson alert! The duo traces job search evolution from simple boards to AI-driven tools, spotlighting generative AI's potential to revolutionize applications despite hurdles like registration barriers. Then it's a spirited battle of Who'd Ya' Rather? pitting Jolly against Lumber for who's the sexier option when it's 2 a.m. at the local watering hole. The boys actually disagree on this one, so be sure to check it out. They debate Florida's controversial child labor law changes, allowing 14-year-olds to work overnight to offset labor shortages worsened by immigration crackdowns, and lament the growing burden of emotional labor in workplaces. Industry reflections include George Foreman's legacy and the people-centric nature of recruiting, peppered with personal Chicago anecdotes.

Matt Layman is back, and we start cranking early. From builder earnings to home sale trends, we dig into what's driving the housing and lumber machine right now. Then we ask the big one: Is the tariff risk already priced in? Or is there more heat to come? We get into the SPF vs. SYP narrative—why it's gotten way too loud, and what matters. With the new SYP CME contract launching Monday, we take a few wild guesses on how it'll trade. Plus, we tackle real customer questions (some live!), and as always, drop a few nuggets to make you just a little bit smarter.

This Episodes Questions: Brian's Questions: I know planing before face jointing is sacraledge but I was recently visiting with an older experienced wood worker who noted he never face joints. Planes both sides then edge joints and it's fine. Thoughts? Thinking if you want it dead flat perfect or board is not great to start with jointing certainly makes sense. But anybody just plane it? Perhaps starting with a decent board it would work for most applications? My 20” planer is a breeze to put wood through, the jointer is great but takes more effort/time if it's not needed would be a nice step to drop. Curious on your thoughts, Matt Wendig I'm preparing to build a set of kitchen cupboards from white oak.  The style will be Mission, with some Frank Lloyd Wright Prairies Style touches.  I have several questions.  I need to cut up a lot of 3/4" plywood.  I have a good track saw and a cabinet tablesaw with side and outfeed tables.  When watching videos of some people constructing kitchen cabinets, I'm surprised that they cut the sheet goods with the track saw but then cut them again, to final size, on the table saw.  I imagined myself using the track saw only—to do very precise cuts to final size and not cutting the panels twice.  What is your process?  Any advice on maximizing my chances of getting near-perfect panels with the track saw only and avoiding the two-cuts process? Darrin    Guy's Questions:    Hey guys, love the podcast. I'm making a screen door for the porch out of cedar that is 1.5” thick, 36” x 84” with 5.5” wide stiles and rails (top, middle and bottom). I have a festool DF500, if I used 10 x 50 dominoes for the joinery would that be strong enough or should I use traditional mortise and tenons? I've read that cedar is pretty dimensionally stable. I was thinking about just staining or oiling the door (I don't want it to turn gray) but does it need an actual topcoat to help keep it from warping? Just don't want to use a finish that is going to flake off and I will have to sand and refinish every year or so. If it needs a topcoat could you recommend a finish? Thanks, Scott in Birmingham. Throughly enjoy the pod cast. I am almost up to date on all past episodes and they hve been quite informative. Little back story on my question. Had a client contact me about repairing a dinning table they had built for their home. For clarity I didn't build the table. The top is a solid wood glue up with breadboards on the ends. On one end of the top the breadboard sticks out about 1/16” past the rest of the top. On the other end 2 boards have a split between the glue line  that stretches roughly 2 feet along their length. I'm sure it is from the wood contracting. Any pointers on how to repair the issue?  I'm 99.9% sure the table top is made from southern yellow pine. It is stained with a top coat of poly acrylic. Robert Huy's Questions: Hello guys, I love the podcast and have learned a ton from you. Keep up the great work and thank you for your time.  I have a question on how you store your tools that require precision/calibration. Specifically, I have an Incra 5000 cross cut sled. When not in use, I store it standing on its side on the shop floor. Is there a better / more correct way? Similar question goes for any other shop made sled / jig that you expect to use over and over again. How do you store it? Max Greddie Woodworks It was mentioned that one of you repalced the wheels on his band saw, do to it wearing out and it was a pain. I have bought a used 14 inch delta bandsaw, and I have no idea how to know if parts are worn out beside the obvious part being the blade. So how can I figure out parts are worn out, sources to shop for replacements ( no home depo in Okinawa) tips and or youtube videos on how to do these maintainance tasks? Oh and what you do to increase the function of a band saw, like would you buy a bow system fence for it? Many thanks, Paul Mitchell Oki Mitch Crafts

WHY CAN'T YOU BE LIKE? Ugh I think these two need to talk.

We have renewable gold growing in our country but we don't utilize it.What are you talking about?Well the gold is lumber and we have tons of it in this country and much of it sits idle, dying in a forest, rotting up or worse burning up and taking forests with it.USA has 8% of all the worlds timber and most of it remains largely untouched.Recently the President signed an executive order to increase domestic lumber production.With housing affordability issues on the rise this could help alleviate one of the largest costs in a home. Lumber.We talk about how much lumber that could create as well as how that could help with the current tariffs and trade wars.Thanks for listening!

BIS seeks public comment on two new Section 232 investigations: copper and lumber/timber. Listen for more on Two Minutes in Trade. 

On today's show we are quantifying the impact of lumber tariffs on new construction. The fact is, the market has already priced in the cost of the tariffs. We're breaking down the contribution of lumber, the tariff, as a percentage of the overall construction. As a result, I expect the impact to be at most 4%, and in fact much less. This assumes that lumber prices rise across the board to match the price of the tariff burdened lumber which only accounts for 25-30% of US lumber supply. --------------**Real Estate Espresso Podcast:** Spotify: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](https://open.spotify.com/show/3GvtwRmTq4r3es8cbw8jW0?si=c75ea506a6694ef1)   iTunes: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/the-real-estate-espresso-podcast/id1340482613)   Website: [www.victorjm.com](http://www.victorjm.com)   LinkedIn: [Victor Menasce](http://www.linkedin.com/in/vmenasce)   YouTube: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](http://www.youtube.com/@victorjmenasce6734)   Facebook: [www.facebook.com/realestateespresso](http://www.facebook.com/realestateespresso)   Email: [podcast@victorjm.com](mailto:podcast@victorjm.com)  **Y Street Capital:** Website: [www.ystreetcapital.com](http://www.ystreetcapital.com)   Facebook: [www.facebook.com/YStreetCapital](https://www.facebook.com/YStreetCapital)   Instagram: [@ystreetcapital](http://www.instagram.com/ystreetcapital)

Lower housing costs and boost American manufacturing. But will it work?

We'll also dive into the environmental concerns, the role of Canada in the U.S. lumber supply, and what this policy shift means for builders, investors, and homebuyers.
