Mike Schnyders with Junk Squad IL.

Happen to miss last Monday's show?Well, take a seat!!!Listen here, as Steve introduces Zach Massell, with Chicago Water & Fire Restoration. You'll begin to wonder who AND where Zach actually is! Well go ahead and wonder yourselves right dang close to halfway through the show, where we finally hear him speak. Steve's overexcitement for his recent homeowner's soda machine install derailed us a bit. We even got, the one and only, Evan Bredeson to chime in with enthusiasm. All in all, we absorbed many key learnings from Zach, with his explicit knowledge on how to handle a loss after substantial damage to the home.  Meg pretty much sat there, mowing on a Slim Jim, as she mentally calculated how many pair of leggings she would need to sell to own her very own soda pop machine. (installation included)Also...audio cuts out at 13:35 for some reason or another. The ending word you're looking for here is..."Problem"#wetried   Prepare 2 Repair Radio Show                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                   

Hope everyone had a GREAT Valentine's Day!!! As for Steve...go ahead and skip ahead to the 1 minute mark for tips on how to lose a wife in 10 seconds. So...moving forward...if anyone needs to get a hold of Steve, he currently resides in a van...located in the parking lot of his nearest Taco Bell.On the upside, we welcomed back Zach Crider with The Floor 4U to the show.  Listen as Zach, not only discusses the current pallet sales at The Floor 4U, but digs DEEP within...to connect with his long lost love for poetry.Meg basically texted June the entire show, as they plotted Steve's banishment, and booked the most readily available U-Haul.Prepare 2 Repair Radio Show

Mondays don't feel much like Mondays with a little Mack Tracey on the show. Take a listen as Mack boasts about the supposed "uptick" in listeners every time he makes an appearance. He'd also like everyone to take note of his velvety, Barry White'ish voice that he'd acquired after his multiple weekend Karaoke ragers.Steve goes on to reveal an incredibly useful "Homeowner's Hack," while Meg keeps things casual, as she bounces her face off the microphone because she can't take anything seriously...or without some sort of filthy connotation.And to wrap the show up... the proverbial icing on the cake...Ferguson Kitchen, Bath, and Lighting Supply has gone ahead and excitedly renewed their sponsorship with the Prepare 2 Repair radio show!!!

Miss Monday's show?  Shawn Porter from Porterhouse Heating & Cooling kicked it with Steve and Meg, as they went over the importance of properly cleaning your duct work and emptying your dryer's lint trap. We also touched base on AC units, and whether or not to repair or replace when issues arise.Jump to 2:58, and listen to Shawn say "Doo Doo." You may be able to hear Meg cackling under her breath because she's a 12 year old.Prepare2Repair's newest segment, "Homeowner's Hack," is up and running! Steve went ahead and confused the hell out of Shawn and Meg with this week's tip, but hang in there...we're working on it!

This Monday we welcomed loyal guest, Audrey Johnson, with Home Source Realty to the show. Listen as we discuss the overabundance of people that allowed their pipes to freeze over the Holiday. Steve offers sympathy. Meghan and Audrey do not. (LOL)Enjoy!

This week on episode 88, we welcomed Mike Schnyders with Junk Squad IL. to the mic! We dug right into what Junk Squad is all about, while also tackling some de-cluttering homeowners' hacks! Listen to "Monster'ed up" Meg, as she interrupts Mike close to every 4.5 seconds while waiting for her meds to kick in. Steve threatens Meg with walking home in the rain. Nothing new.

On today’s show we have Bill Baker with Relentless Carpentry and Surface Solutions. Steve, Meghan, and Bill cover everything from Christmas movies to countertops, circle around to publishing a book, and then finish it off with basic nonsense.Enjoy!

Who loves toilet talk? Well, you're in the right place! On this week's episode of the Prepare2Repair show, (AKA how quickly can Steve and Meghan derail themselves from the actual topic of conversation) Steve and Meghan chat (or bicker) about clearance sales and Holiday toilet troubles.Let me ask you this...While hosting a Holiday party, do you ever find yourself worrying about what objects or knick knacks your guests may or may not chuck into your toilet bowl?Yeah...me either, but Steve does.

Miss Monday's show? Steve (RJ Graham Plumbing) and Zach Crider (The Floor4u) Mokena debate over online reviews, discuss winterization for your home, and sales on flooring. Meg's just a buffer that basically does nothing but argue with Steve. Do you, as a consumer, take reviews into consideration before purchasing a product or service? What type of reviews do you look over first? 1 star, 2...4? Tell us your thoughts and why!Take a listen.

Hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving!!! If you happened to miss this past Monday's show, tune in here!!!Host Plumber Steve Suarez and co-host Meghan Maza Oeser with the Prepare 2 Repair Radio Show discuss Holiday matters, such as...shopping deals, household tasks, and bingeworthy Christmas movies.That being said...- IS 'Die Hard' considered a Christmas movie? - Do you agree with Meghan that Home Alone is a garbage movie?- Who is your favorite NLCV character?
