I went over my neighbor's house to Linda Hamm, and I ended up staying the whole day.

Every day is a story. I'm Shannon Kaysen. Make sure you like and subscribe.

My neighbor heard that I was doing some DIY work on my own home, meaning the house next door.

And another family home that I'm fixing up that I'm moving into soon.

And I'm super excited about that.

It looks so good.

But I think my neighbor listens to the podcast, to be honest with you.

What up, Em?

We're going to call him M.

I know you listening to M.

He said that he's converting his old pipes at his house, which is a mix of copper, galvanized pipe, cast iron, and he wants to convert it over to Pecks and PVC. And all of our homes in this neighborhood are over a hundred years old. This is the East English Village neighborhood on the east side of Detroit.

Nice neighborhood.

They're doing a lot of construction and building up this neighborhood.

The East Warren Corridor, they call it.

Everything is old, though.

It's built the last, but it's old.

So he invited me over to a system.

And I'm a hands-on learner.

I got to get my hands in it.

So it works for me.

And he's like a super handy guy.

He gets excited about tools.
