Our guests today are two huge difference makers in housing for Greater Phoenix, Arizona residents: Jason Barlow, CEO & President of Central AZ’s Habitat for Humanity and KTAR’s Rosie on the House Arizona’s most trusted source of home-improvement advice and know-how.
I have known Rosie Romero for nearly 40 years now and his show has been a weekly fixture on KTAR radio since the 1988. Rosie doles out easy-to-understand, common-sense advice to do-it-yourselfers about all kinds of projects around the home.
I have had the pleasure of working with and cooking with Jason Barlow as a Habitat for Humanity Board member for a number of years. Habitat for Humanity has built over 1,200 homes, completed more than 3,800 repairs, and improved living conditions for more than 5,000 Arizona families since 1985.
Today's episode covers all things building and housing related. Rosie tells us about the huge KBIS industry show in Las Vegas he just returned from and we discuss new products, processes and industry and housing trends he learned about at the show.
We talk about some Habitat past projects we have each been involved with, such as the first ever 3D printed house we designed for a family and a new project with Habitat called the Rosie Habitat Build Challenge.
Jason shares with us their new Construction Training Program for people wanting to learn those valuable skills and invites listeners to attend their semi-annual event March 23 Blueprints and Blue Jeans. We will be auctioning off an authentic Cajun dinner prepared and hosted by Rosie & Mark!
