Fix It 101
Fix It 101 | Reunited And Its Feels Better Than Zoom
•
In this episode of Fix It 101, you can really feel the energy with all three hosts in the same studio. This is the first time Jason, Jeff, and Pam have been in the same room in over a year! And they really pick up where they left off last March. Zoom and Skype show have been nice but there is no substitute for face-to-face conversation and laughs. Between helping with your Pre-Memorial Day projects, Jeff talks about the effects of high lumber prices on new home construction, and Pam shares what she did with some recycled wood around her home. Let's work!
