 iTunes Ratings
Guy Who Thinks He Can Build- A great listen for wood nerds – 5 Stars – I have been listening since the beginning of the show and it has been enjoyable listening to the guys become more comfortable, and gain more chemistry while doing the podcast.  Will continue so long as they keep making them.  Toth is god!
