On the Roof

education · EN

"On the Roof" is a short-form solo podcast hosted by Yehuda Gittelson, a NABCEP-certified solar installer based in Portland, Maine. Each episode runs 10–18 minutes. Yehuda narrates from the perspective of someone who spends his days on ladders, in attics, and on job sites across southern Maine — not a pundit, not a policy wonk, just a guy who knows what a roof actually looks like before and after a system goes in. The tone is candid and specific. Think a trades version of a field notes journal: what he saw on a job that week, what homeowners get wrong, what the industry doesn't talk about, what changes from one roof to the next. No interviews, no panels, no sponsored segments. Just Yehuda, a microphone, and whatever he's been thinking about on the drive back from a job site. The show lives at the intersection of craft, climate, and working life in rural-to-coastal New England.
