A podcast about the people behind the orange barrels on the roadway. You see them everyday as random neon vests and hardhats, but they are real people with real lives. And they have great stories. So join me as we learn more about the people that build this country.
We are taking a short break from the show to welcome Safety Man Jr. into the world. We will be back with new interviews soon. Until then, follow us on Instagram or Facebook at Safety Man Comin' to get all the updates on a return. Thank you to everyone for supporting the show.
