| 0:00.0 | So it is modern craftsman Monday. I'm back. Nick is absent. John is here, although his |
| 0:14.4 | photo on our squad cast was paused for about 50% of the episode. We should get a picture |
| 0:22.0 | of this of you. You have like this mean mug face on right now. |
| 0:26.1 | Mine's black. Is it? Yeah, completely. That's why I tried to refresh it like a hundred times. |
| 0:31.7 | Now you're you are not black on my end. You have this like biting your lip right now off |
| 0:38.3 | to send a picture of it to you. But today we have on Casey from the conscious builder to |

| 1:47.3 | John with the all the energy efficiency. We just don't build that way down where I am. |
| 1:52.5 | So it's always interesting to hear that. It's just it's a topic that we we should hit |
| 1:58.3 | more just not just efficiencies, but health of the home. And we talked to a thing with |
| 2:02.7 | Ben Bogie, the carbon footprint of a home. I think it's something that it should be a |
| 2:07.7 | bigger conversation and figured it would ask since he's into that part of it. So it was |
