About this episode

Rich Cockerline discusses the realities of tradesmen's earnings on social media and critical safety issues in the construction industry.

Rich Cockerline cold-approached sparks on building sites for 18 months just to get his first break, and that relentless mindset never left him. From working inside the National Cyber Security Centre with zero electronics allowed, to why 13 electrical deaths in a single year is an industry scandal nobody's talking about, this episode goes places most podcasts won't. Fake business coaches, the 2-million-homes pipe dream, and a mission that could save lives.
