Go behind the scenes of HGTV's new hit show "Build It Forward" with co-hosts Matt Blashaw and Taniya Nayak, who didn't even get a screen test together before they stepped in front of there camera! Taniya and Matt worked side by side for 5 amazing episodes on location all around the USA, giving back to those who have given so much to their community.
Matt's journey to his big TV 'break' is unique. May grew up working at his dad's lumberyard before graduation from Chapman University. He then worked at a variety of jobs in both construction and entertainment, including a technical services gig at Disney. Matt learned a valuable life lesson after he landed a TV show audition after he decided to "just be himself". From there he went on to host over 450 episodes of shows like "Yard Crashers".
But he almost left the business for good, before getting back with "Build It Forward". Hear all about it on this episode of The Break.
