The Plasterers Podcast began with a simple idea and a phone call between Mick and Dave. Using basic equipment, they recorded their conversations, starting in September 2025. Initially targeting 1,000 downloads, they achieved that by November. The podcast has since grown to over 30,000 downloads globally while retaining its informal charm.
