Checking Out Your Facility - Facilities Five and Dime isn’t your typical podcast. Like the old five-and-dime stores—where merchants had to know a little bit about everything—we step into the world of facility stewardship with curiosity, grit, and a touch of storytelling flair. Each episode digs into real stories, lessons learned, and surprising turns behind the buildings we use every day.

From unseen risks hidden in cooling towers to the cost of poor communication in a maintenance team, we uncover how small details and overlooked systems can ripple into big consequences. Along the way, we tie in history, best practices, and practical wisdom that equips facility teams, leaders, and everyday stewards to care well for the spaces entrusted to them.

Think of it as a place where curiosity meets expertise, and where every aisle is stocked with a new story you didn’t expect—but one you’ll never forget.
