This is a real conversation about the sprinkler fitter trade, fire protection, and what it actually means to do the work. Bobby is also the host of The Dope and Tape Show, where they’re talking with anyone in the fire protection industry, real conversations with the people actually doing it. We get into what it takes to earn your place. Not talking your way in, but proving you’re worth investing in. Showing up in a way the older generation respects. Bobby shares stories from the field, some of the more complicated projects he’s been a part of, and what it takes to figure things out when it matters. And like any honest conversation in the trades, there’s plenty of laughter along the way. Because if you’ve done the work, you know the job comes with stories you can’t make up. This one’s real. 👉 If you’re in the trades, thinking about getting in, or just want to hear real conversations from the men and women who do the work, hit subscribe.
