    This is an episode preview of our new podcast, Maintenance is a Drag! Watch the video version on youtube or find the audio podcast wherever you get your podcasts!It's time to paint the town in glitter and fix those squeaky hinges!

In this extraordinary episode, the dynamic duo dives headfirst into the most peculiar and specific home repair dilemmas you could imagine. From patching up ceiling holes caused by rogue stripper poles (we're not here to judge, we promise!) to tackling the intricacies of replacing a UV light in an HVAC system without breaking a sweat (or a nail). Get ready to soak up some wisdom to help you navigate the treacherous waters of water damage (pun intended) and sliding doors that have decided to take a leap of faith off their tracks. Who needs reality TV when you have Mercury and Landon coming to the rescue?
