Communication Breakdown: Disconnected by Technology and the Erosion of Person-to-Person Communication in Trades

HVAC R&D

Rhydon and Dennis enjoy a great episode filled with good times and technical difficulties from the beginning to the end. All the headaches worked to highlight what became the main focus of the show, which morphed into a discussion about the rapid pace of technological advancement hampering the development of person to person communication in the trades and in everyday life. The two conversed about the importance of eye contact, a quality handshake and body language when talking with homeowners and fellow tradespeople. They also discussed some of the short falls that they are both seeing in everyday life in regards to the same thing. They also closed the show with a great "Crawlspace Confession," and a surprise cameo!
