Episode #48 - Do Beavers Have Ears?
Brian and Eric encounter a large mammal swimming across the lake during their latest northwoods adventure. Was it a foreshadowing of softening markets, or of the recent droll headline out of Moscow? Despite lackluster GPS performance, the boys navigate out of the bush to discuss these and other subjects and welcome Mr. Harry Moser, of the Reshoring Intitiative, and Mr. Andy Cohn, of Duncan Bolt. An in-depth examination of the reshoring movement and related issues ensues (56:41). Mike McNulty breaks industry headlines on the Fastener News Report and presents details of the slipping FDI numbers from June, along with BB&T Capital Markets analyst, Holden Lewis (30:58). Also, extended interviews from the MWFA Expo and golf outing featuring Rich Cavoto, John Butler, Vic LaPoma, Jackie Ventura, Matt Delawder, Kameron Dorsey, Don Shan and more (18:18). Like America’s new healthcare system, this episode of FTR is absolutely free. Just don’t expect it to address all your issues in a timely or effective manner. Run time: 01:45:38
