  • S5Ep7: The Lost Art of DIY with Jamie Duff & Ryan Carrick
    In this episode of Under Construction with Chadwicks, host Donncha O’Callaghan is joined by content creator and DIY expert Jamie Duff and comedian Ryan Carrick—to explore a big question: have we lost the basic DIY skills of generations past?   From converting horse trucks into tiny homes to learning everything from YouTube, Jamie represents the new wave of self-taught DIYers. Meanwhile, Ryan’s curiosity (and lack of experience) brings a fresh perspective—and a few laughs. They dive into the gap in hands-on know-how among younger generations, how online learning is changing the game, and what it takes to actually start building, fixing, or renovating in 2025.   Together, they explore whether it’s a skills crisis or just a shift in how we learn—and prove that anyone can get stuck in (with or without knowing which end of the hammer to hold). 🛠️ Whether you’re a seasoned builder or a total novice, this episode is a must-listen for anyone curious about DIY today.   Follow Chadwicks, Donncha, and the Guests: 🔗 Chadwicks Website: ⁠www.chadwicks.ie⁠  📲 Follow Chadwicks on Instagram: ⁠@chadwicks_ie⁠  📲 Follow Chadwicks on TikTok: ⁠@chadwicksie⁠  📲 Follow Donncha O’Callaghan: ⁠@donnchaocallaghan⁠  📲 Follow Jamie Duff: ⁠@duffdiy⁠  📲 Follow Ryan Carrick: ⁠@ryancarrickcomedy⁠ 🎧 Listen on all podcast platforms, including Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and Google Podcasts.   #ChadwicksPodcast #UnderConstructionPodcast #Podcast #DIY #Construction #JamieDuff #RyanCarrick #VanLife #TinyHomes #HomeRenovation #Chadwicks
