Wooden It Be Nice Podcast – Details, episodes & analysis

Steve is the man, we all know that. Dillon and Travis get to hang out with him. Will they even talk woodworking? Will there somehow be an idea for a spinoff podcast? Join along and find out as we chat with Steve Ramsey!

What's better than one Fawcett? Two! Seth, the brother of Dillon joins the pod this week to talk all things trees. We jump into wood grading, structure, species, hardness, moisture content, and much more. WARNING: Travis was deeply annoyed by these two by the end of the episode and you will be too. Seth is not an expert but he is a nerd, so he jumped down some rabbit holes. You are bound to learn something!

Being down makes him Sadkins. Feeling cool makes him Radkins. But when he's woodworking? Then he's the Dadkins. Regardless of the nicknames, he's the only ten that we see. Dillon and Travis sit down with Dustin Adkins, the coolest science teacher/woodworker that Tennessee has to offer. 

This episode Travis and Dillon speak to one of the cofounders of Chizel, an online woodworking marketplace. Tyler Jones shares how the idea was conceived and built, how woodworkers can become involved with it, and his vision for it. Sign up to be a vendor today at www.Chizel.shop 

Dillon and Travis sit down with St. Louis based woodworker, Kyle Breuer, to learn more about his favorite tools, projects, and how to jump off of a work bench to start an Instagram video. 

Travis and Dillon are joined by Drew Hall from Fernwood Farms Woodworking. Drew enlightens us on how his passion for woodworking began, how has business has changed recently, how his social media has grown, and where he wants to be in a few years. Fun fact: Fernwood Farms is actually spelled Fuewx.

This week, we do a deep dive into the background of co-host, Dillon Fawcett, the self-proclaimed "coolest" person employed by Fawcett Woodcraft.

In the second episode of Wooden It Be Nice, Dillon Interviews Travis "Trav of all Trades" Granberg. Travis shares with us a brief history of how he came to love working with his hands, and lays down some valuable advice about owning your small business. Unfortunately, we don't learn his favorite color.

In the debut episode, Travis and Dillon introduce the story of how Wooden It Be Nice was conceived and their goals for it. Tools are talked about, along with beer and derechos. What's that? Guess you'll just have to listen! Come back for episode two for a deep dive into what makes Travis tick, and maybe you'll learn his favorite color. Or not.

Our podcast is all about wanting to be better, but realizing the present is the best place to be. This applies to woodworking, owning a small business, and being humans.
