In episode 21, guest host Randy Niewind, president of Randy's Cabinets and Woodworks and president of the Cabinet Makers Association. He chats with Bobby Miller, a dedicated woodshop teacher from Coon Rapids High School in Minnesota. Bobby shares how his program goes beyond the basics, guiding students from beginner projects to advanced builds like entertainment centers and instruments. They dive into the power of hands-on learning, real-world industry exposure through events and tours, and how today’s students value workplace culture just as much as pay. Bobby also discusses how he brings tech, business, and networking into the shop to help students find purpose.
