The Measuring Up Podcast was the UK’s first and favourite commercial joinery podcast. It ran for 50 episodes from 26th March 2018 through to 24th February 2020. The show was hosted by Andy MacLellan (Gosforth Handyman on YouTube) and Peter Millard (10 Minute Workshop on YouTube) discussing the world of commercial woodworking from a UK perspective but to an international audience. Andy and Peter chat about everything from winning customers through to tool talk and the daily challenges of self employment. It’s very much a “2 blokes talking” style of podcast. The show was completely independent and privately funded via Patreon.
