In this raw and revealing episode of The Construction Life Podcast, we sit down with Rich Ruela—a union framer with experience on high-rise crews, running his own business, and working alongside family—to talk about the real-life challenges that don’t get covered in any site safety manual.
Rich opens up about: 🔹 Toxic site culture—including a foreman who crossed the line physically 🔹 Nepotism and favoritism—why it’s still a major barrier to fairness and growth in the trades 🔹 The pressure and fallout of working with family—from father-son dynamics to business partnership nightmares 🔹 Competitiveness in the trades—when it pushes you to grow, and when it starts to break people down 🔹 Why respect should be a baseline on site—regardless of title, years in, or last name
Rich keeps it honest, calling out the mental, emotional, and physical toll construction can take—while also showing why he’s still in the game and still standing.
🎧 Tune in for a conversation that’s long overdue, full of truth, grit, and hard-earned perspective.

In this vibrant episode of The Construction Life Podcast, we sit down with Gianluca LaMarca of Selective Painting and AG Flooring, a father-and-son-run painting business built on pride, passion, and precision.

#762 - Turning Up the Heat: Politics, Trades & Truth with Stefan Orestovich of HamontHVAC

On this deeply reflective and power-packed episode of TNT, Manny teams up once again with co-host Jonathan Cinelli of the People First Podcast to dig into some hard truths about why so many of us in construction—and in life—seek out struggle instead of embracing joy.
We get real about: 🔹 Why we sometimes gravitate toward hardship, even when happiness is within reach 🔹 How we justify focusing on work over family and loved ones 🔹 Learning to be present and grateful, especially in the chaos of the construction life 🔹 The mindset shift that comes when you realize—"it could always be worse" 🔹 Keyboard warriors and digital noise—why their lies and opinions don’t matter when you’re dialed in to your own goals and accomplishments
This episode is a wake-up call to reclaim your focus, redefine what success really looks like, and stop giving energy to things—or people—that have no place in your journey.
🎧 Tune in for a mindset reset, some needed real talk, and a reminder that peace comes when you protect your priorities.

#765 - Gear That Saves Lives: Pete Zeppetella ZeppsGear & A Vision for the Future Construction

#766 - Reimagining the Workforce: Paul M. Pires on AI, Automation & Building EMPIRES

In this eye-opening episode of TCL Podcast, we welcome back Rob Cinapri of CFO Collective to unpack the financial realities shaping the construction industry—and why so many Canadian builders are being left behind.
We get into everything from financial clarity and business growth to the uncomfortable truths about modular housing, government agendas, and the disconnect between immigration and skilled trades.
Topics include: 🔹 The rise of modular construction—but here’s the catch: it’s being manufactured in China, then shipped to Canada 🔹 Who really benefits? Not local tradespeople, but government insiders and Brookfield-type friends of the PM 🔹 Why the massive immigration wave won’t solve the trades shortage—because construction is a hard life and most newcomers aren’t entering the trades 🔹 How small- to mid-sized builders can fight back with better financial systems, smarter cash flow, and strategy over survival 🔹 What it means to have a CFO who understands the bigger picture, not just the bottom line
This is a no-holds-barred conversation about the future of building in Canada—and how the people who’ve built the backbone of this country are being pushed to the sidelines.

#771 - From Blueprints to Bold Builds: Max of Acadia Design Consultants on Designing the Future

Written and performed by Dope B
Recorded @ The Creation Station, London ON
June 2025

[LYRICS]

ayo,
As a white boy, you know that it's my duty
To lay down and boogie, to play that funky music
'til I die, so here's a funky exhibition
Watch me pick up my Ax and Smash like Demolition 
I got riffs to learn and spliffs to burn
The riot’s too quiet, I got knobs to turn
And I'm not concerned if you got cheese, 'cause I'm grater
Rhymes so rough it's like I wrote 'em down on sandpaper 
Give me a little distortion
Give me overdrive, amplified, supersized portions
Thunder on the drums, here comes the track builder
A Funky bassline with an envelope filter
I chop beats and loop 'em, I take mids and scoop 'em
I write rhymes and group 'em
Push buttons and beep-boop 'em
Lots of time invested, play-tested
You can't even hold my mic, you bench-press it

Funk all night and sleep all day (C'mon)
Funk all night and sleep all day (C'mon)
Funk all night and sleep all day (C'mon)
Funk all night and sleep all day (C'mon)
Funk all night and sleep all day (C'mon)
Funk all night and sleep all day (C'mon)
Funk all night and sleep all day (C'mon)
Funk all night and sleep all day (C'mon)

You thought that first verse hurt? It’s about to get worse
It's time to turn the tables like an Uno reverse
The rhyme sommelier, I don't rush it or hasten it
I savor it slowly, enjoying it as I'm tasting it
Sweet like honey with a touch of black peppery
Top-secret recipe, feeling like a celebrity
Chef, nothing left to take home in the Tupperware
But catch me at a show and I'll be feeding starving suckas there
Eat 'em up yum, when I come with the lyrical tongue
Ya fuck around and get your dumb ass stung
By the B that don't bumble
Slip, stagger, stumble,
Smooth like butter, never stutter when the bass rumble 
It can’t be overstated that the only way to play it
Is to focus and maintain it, and when you got it, demonstrate it
To the masses, move they asses,
Take them to class
Step to the bars, get knocked back like shot glasses

Funk all night and sleep all day (C'mon)
Funk all night and sleep all day (C'mon)
Funk all night and sleep all day (C'mon)
Funk all night and sleep all day (C'mon)
Funk all night and sleep all day (C'mon)
Funk all night and sleep all day (C'mon)
Funk all night and sleep all day (C'mon)
Funk all night and sleep all day (C'mon)

I’m twisted, gifted, persistent and lifted
Some sweet sounds coming down on the Night shift
The next song pedigree, my head's strong mentally, 
Lexicon weaponry, text bombing steadily
Phonetically exotic, technologic, and melodic
So hypnotic cause I got it, there's no way you can stop it
Look at the clock, it's time to get funky
I like 'em big, I like 'em chunky

Funk all night and sleep all day (C'mon)
Funk all night and sleep all day (C'mon)
Funk all night and sleep all day (C'mon)
Funk all night and sleep all day (C'mon)
Funk all night and sleep all day (C'mon)
Funk all night and sleep all day (C'mon)
Funk all night and sleep all day (C'mon)
Funk all night and sleep all day (C'mon)

DOPE B - FUNK ALL NIGHT

What’s the buzz on the podcast this week? We’re talking bees, buildings, and breakfast!

On the latest episode of Truth in Texas Banking, we’re joined by the hive-minded folks at Oak Cliff Bee Company to chat about:

Why bees are taking over rooftops in North Texas
Whether local honey really helps your allergies
And which foods you’re eating today that wouldn’t exist without a little bee magic

It’s sweet, it’s surprising, and it might just change how you pick out your fruit at the grocery store!

Intercontinental indie rock duo. AUS 🫱🏾‍🫲🏼 UK

Made in a heatwave 🌞

Heatwavers was formed during a dusty walk in Mykonos when best friends James (UK) and Nige (AUS) vowed to make music from opposite sides of the planet.

Inspired by a shared love of 60s pop and indie rock (Best Coast, Surfer Blood, The Shins) they started creating ideas across the internet and recording remotely to soundtrack love, loss, and the good times.
