Episode #148 - Anti-Social
Largely unavailable on any social media platform, the latest episode of predominantly fastener-related talk radio radiates fresh digital effluvia into the audio stream of a new decade, as Goebel Fasteners makes its podcast debut with North American VP Christian Reich (22:40). The Fastener Industry Coalition doesn’t have much of an online presence, but is under new management so that may change, as described by Brighton Best veteran Chuck Halpin (1:10:23). During a tweet-worthy conversation, Baird analyst David Manthey and newsman Mike McNulty review the troublesome FDI finale for 2019 on the Fastener News Report (42:24). Thread guru Carmen Vertullo presents the next in his series of CFS quiz questions on the Fastener Training Minute (1:04:06). PLUS: Marc Strandquist shares thoughts on taking the helm at Optimas (He might not have set up the Snapchat account for his new gig yet) (35:30). Brian and Eric are about as wired in as ever, so they decide it would be a good idea to invite the industry walleye fishing, and send a gift box to Winona for some reason. Run time: 01:46:44
