In this episode of Constructive Conversations, host Eddie Thompson of Brown Edwards Company sits down with Aaron Witt — founder of BuildWitt, host of the Dirt Talk podcast, and self-proclaimed Chief Dirt Nerd. Aaron shares the unlikely origin story of his career in heavy civil construction, from cold-calling a contractor after high school to building one of the industry's most recognized media and training brands. The two discuss how Aaron grew BuildWitt from a one-man social media venture into a company focused on workforce development, daily training software, and the annual Dirt World Summit. They also dig into the industry's workforce challenges, the untapped potential of the skilled trades, lessons from construction sites around the globe, and Aaron's concern that America is falling behind on infrastructure investment. The episode wraps up with a lightning round covering favorite equipment, book recommendations, and what Aaron would say to every contractor leader in America.
