Daniel Wright ( W Durable Goods)
When you walk into W Durable Goods it is almost like walking back in time. Not only the decor but the vibe. Daniel Wright is the owner and drives a truck that says No Hurry on the back of it. He takes that attitude into the shop with him. No hustle and bustle or rush. Just a super nice guy bringing you honest goods that last. Some are hand made and some are rare jewels you cant find anywhere else. The show kicks off with Vodeo's single You're Making Me Nervous then a small car trip to the shop. I found a YouTube ad and it gives a brief intro into Daniel and W Durable Goods and then we chat for an hour with a song by Simon Flory (I Need to Work On My Songs) in the middle and The Cutthroat Finches (Ideology Ends) at the end. Some of the things we hit on were how he got into making things, the buildings history ( OB Macaroni building), the glory days of Fort Worth 1930s-50s, faux buildings, Fort Worth as a child, Tandy Center subway rides to the ice rink, creating a business, the hustle and grind, the love of vingage, local music, venues, sofar and so much more. I had such a good time getting to know Daniel. I can relate to his spirit and his love of the old and his love of Fort Worth. There is lots of Fort Worth love in this episode. If you are looking for something cool there is tons of it in his shop. He also has lots of useful items and a lot of hand made goods. I highly suggest you check out his shop. Tell him we sent you.
As always
