"I'm tired of tearing shit down," says Montae Russell. "Let me build something up." This kind of constructive, uplifting mindset is often heard on the Drinking Partners podcast, but never quite so literally. Montae is one-half of the husband and wife duo behind Russell General Contracting (5:50). He's lead carpenter; Alexis works as consultant. Together, they have helped to preserve Pittsburgh, and the nation's, cultural heritage, working on both the National Negro Opera House and the August Wilson House. Not only are Alexis and Tae savvy small business owners, but they're parents, too. (They even have some chickens.) Their personal journey is intertwined with their entrepreneurial path, and they share their one-of-a-kind tale over drinks with Day and Ed. 

 

Guests: Montae and Alexis Russell of Russell General Contracting.

Location: Emerald City, Pittsburgh.

Production: Epicast.
