Tales from the Crawlspace 2.0 — Pest Control, Shenanigans, and Zero Regrets
Welcome back, Crawlspace Crew. If you’re here, you’re either a pest control pro, a glutton for punishment, or just here for the ridiculous stories. Either way, we salute you (with a sprayer in one hand and coffee in the other).

Recent Episodes You Shouldn’t Miss
🧠 I’m With Stupid
Jack and Big Love go full National Geographic on the strange creatures known as “customers.” We cover everything from pesticide paranoia to requests so bizarre they could qualify for a Ripley’s museum. Spoiler: communication matters… but so does laughing at the absurdity of it all.
🎤 The Donnie and Marie Episode: Round Two
Chele’s back, and the stories are just as morally questionable as last time. We talk shady Mormon-owned pest companies, why God might actually be a T-Rex, and yes… the word “soaking” comes up again. You’re welcome.
🍺 The Inebriated Termite Episode
Termites, unbearable summer heat, and field stories you won’t hear in training manuals. We’ve got guests, gadget talk, and a sponsor plug for Termite Treats because nothing says “fun” like candy-coated cellulose.
🏠 BONUS: The Stately Harvey Manor Short Episode
Recorded live from Brad’s house on a Monday night, this bite-sized episode is proof that great content can be made anywhere… even while digesting prime rib. Quick, dirty, and just the right amount of unfiltered.

Coming Soon: The International Episode 🌍
This isn’t just another episode — it’s a pest control world tour. We’re bringing in techs from around the globe to share their war stories, weirdest jobs, and local pest nightmares.
If you’re reading this from outside the U.S. and have a story worth telling (or even one that isn’t), contact us ASAP — we want your voice on the show.

Fake Listener Feedback Corner

“I thought I was here for pest control tips. I was wrong, but I’m not leaving.” — Confused in Cleveland
Stay itchy, stay scratchy, and we’ll see you in the crawlspace.
Jack
Resident asshat podcast creator
Jack started his career in pest control before Termidor existed. His first foray into the bug killing world was as a termite tech. With a background in construction inspection, he took to termite work well.
Jack went from termite work to to being a universal tech for one company… and then a service manager for “The Big Green T”. Then he got a job with a pesticide distribution warehouse for a while… until he got robbed in broad daylight and decided “fuck this shit” and went to be a “universal tech” for another company.
Eventually becoming a branch manager for a “Donnie and Marie” pest control company, Jack fought the religious pest system and wound up at the very end of his career as a commercial tech.
After 26 years, he retired from pest control to focus his energies on Tales from the Crawlspace, and being a retired bum.
Jack enjoys his solitude in a 100 year old Sears and Roebuck kit house in the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia.
We’re Back!!!!!
