Richard and Jenna Greenwalt

Over the last two episodes, I’ve had the chance to sit down with contractors who refuse to be boxed in—and this one might be the most creative yet. Richard and Jenna of Forged Ingrain don’t just work with concrete—they bring wood, metal, paint, and imagination together to create true, multi-medium art.In this episode, we dive deep into what it really means to live an artistic life—balancing creativity with the pressures of family, business, and everything in between. They pull back the curtain on their incredible 2026 Smackdown piece, breaking down how they brought an iconic cartoon, The Simpsons, living room to life in a way that only they could.It’s a conversation full of insight, honesty, and plenty of laughs—and a reminder that art doesn’t have limits, only possibilities. Don’t miss this one.

Rick Thomas Concrete

This one’s an absolute must-listen. I sat down with Rick Thomas for a conversation that goes everywhere—in the best way possible. We dive into his rise on social media, the cutting edge of 3D-printed tools, his passion for fundraising, and even some great fishing stories. But the real standout? His deep roots in drag strip racing—a family legacy that goes all the way back to the 1960s. It’s high energy, full of stories, and packed with personality. Two Ricks, one mic—The Rick & Rick Show delivers big time. Don’t miss this one.

Keith Duffy

Keith Duffy, owner of Kickass Concrete in Hawaii, joins Captain T and the Purist for a lively and unforgettable conversation. Fresh off his 3rd-place finish in the DCE 2026 Smackdown Competition, Keith shares what it’s really like to live and work as a decorative concrete contractor on the islands. From the challenges of pouring concrete in Hawaii to the unique lifestyle that comes with it, Keith brings energy, humor, and plenty of insight. He even calls back to memorable moments from past episodes, making this a full-circle conversation for longtime listeners. This one goes off the rails in the best way—stories, laughs, and real talk about building a “kickass” life in an extraordinary place. We could’ve kept this going for hours, and there’s no doubt we’ll have Keith back again soon. And since Keith created a pool table at this year’s Decorative Concrete Expo, the Purist puts both him and Captain T to the test with a fun dive into the history of pool.
