The crew is down three this week with Anthony, Shifty, and Twiggs out—but the bullshit carries on. Brian takes his punishment and ends up with the Mega Sour Zombie Bomb, while Anthony calls in and somehow steals the show during trivia.

The guys dive into Missouri's upcoming Amendment 6, talk about how local labor clubs support their communities, and wrap things up with deer season—because apparently 100° weather isn't enough to keep these guys out of the woods.

Short crew. Sour punishment. Big opinions. Same unfiltered bullshit.

No guests. No Shifty. Just the dudes doing what they do best.

The guys get into the upcoming Missouri election and Amendment 6, then shift gears for a more serious conversation about mental health and suicide awareness. They talk about the Member Assistance Program available through the Bricklayers, the importance of actually reaching out when you're struggling, and the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline.

Then, naturally, they completely derail things with trivia from the '80s, '90s, and 2000s. Because nothing says emotional maturity like grown tradesmen arguing over decades-old trivia.

They wrap things up with some good old-fashioned deer talk, and Anthony becomes the unwilling star of the episode after the guys start keeping a "f*ck" counter because apparently that word was doing a LOT of heavy lifting.

Mental health, Missouri politics, nostalgia, deer, trivia, and an unreasonable number of F-bombs.

Just another day at Union Made & Uncensored. 🍻🧱

If you or someone you know is struggling or in crisis, call or text 988 to reach the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline.

What better way to celebrate Labor Day than with two guys who know exactly what it means to be union?

This week, we're joined by Gary Payeur, Business Manager of Local 1 Insulators of St. Louis, and David Knipp — better known online as the Proud Union Guy. David has built a huge social media following by talking about the trades, union careers, benefits, wages, and what life on the union side of the industry is really like.

We get into the stories behind the work, what makes the benefits worth fighting for, recruiting the next generation of skilled tradespeople, wages, the future of the industry, and plenty of opinions along the way. And because apparently we can't have a serious conversation without turning it into a competition… we also put everyone to the test with some Labor Day Trivia.

Two Insulators. Two perspectives. A whole lot of stories, laughs, and union talk.

Happy Labor Day from the podcast!
