Everything behaves
exactly the way
it was built to.
Honest conversations about why things turn out the way they do. Hosted by a builder with thirty years on site, over £500 million of projects behind him, and no appetite for polite small talk.
Behaviour is designed. Good and bad.
We're all built to behave by something.
Environment, upbringing, the role we were handed, the pressure of the people around us. Guests unpack what shaped them, and what it took to break the mould.
Set up properly, a project behaves properly.
One that isn't falls over in exactly the way it was designed to. Real stories from jobs that ran like clockwork, and jobs that ran into the ground.
Planned right, or never stood a chance.
Developments that were designed and delivered right, and the ones that weren't. What good looks like, what it returns, and what it costs when nobody builds it to behave.
The most downloaded episodes weren't about bricks, contracts or margins. They were about the things people carry to work and never mention.
A microphone comes with a weight of responsibility, so this platform gets used for the subjects most of the industry won't touch. If construction is serious about opening its doors to everyone, somebody has to start the conversations that make that real. That's this show.
