HVAC Uncensored
A second-generation HVAC pro’s guide to the trade, blending business coaching interviews with solo commentary on industry life.
A podcast for and by HVAC professionals, hosted by a veteran of the trade. It combines long-form interviews with industry coaches and successful contractors with solo episodes where the host shares personal career updates and unfiltered thoughts on the state of the industry. The show's philosophy is to say what needs to be said, uncensored, to help technicians and business owners improve.
“The host's raw, "uncensored" blue-collar perspective, which he likens to techs talking at a bar after work, gives the show a candid and direct tone. A recurring Pledge of Allegiance segment also provides a unique, patriotic signature.”
