Ever find yourself in the garage with a half-finished project, wondering how to actually film it or balance it with family life? That’s the everyday territory explored in We Built A Thing. Hosts Mark, Drew, and Bruce are dads and part-time creators who understand the messy, rewarding intersection of building something tangible and sharing that journey online. Their conversations feel like hanging out in a well-used workshop, covering the sawdust-covered realities of making things with your hands alongside the practical challenges of growing a YouTube channel or building a community on Instagram and Facebook. This isn’t about flawless finished products; it’s about the constant learning that happens when life, fatherhood, DIY, and content creation all collide. Each episode digs into the genuine questions they’re figuring out themselves, from shop tips and project failures to the nuances of filming a process or finding time between school runs. Tune in for a candid, relatable look at the ongoing project of being a maker in the modern world.
