Episode #88 - What Were the Odds?

Unlike winning at slots, or in the podcasting game, fast-paced fastener talk radio is no long shot as Mark Klosek and Dave Kjanek, of the Vertex Distribution team, describe the current stainless market (18:40). Then, the annual Semi All-Star Panel convenes to review this year's Vegas fastener show, with John Butler, Laura Vath and Bob Baer spinning the wheel (1:01:14). Fastener industry newshound, Mike McNulty rounds up industry headlines, and explains the avalanche of support for liberty, as evidenced by the recent mid-terms, on the Fastener News Report (46:53). Plus, Carmen Vertullo compares fine versus coarse threads on the Fastener Training Minute (38:12). Brian and Eric are 2 to 1 favorites, although you shouldn't gamble on whether Brian will ever manage to find paper towels at Cosco. Run time: 02:14:31
