Episode 8: Conor Lamb, Tariffs and 3D Printing




Rust Belt to Beltway show

Summary: This is a different type of episode. It includes segments from TWO new premium episodes, just released on our Patreon page: patreon.com/rustbelt. There, we have episodes with John Austin of Brookings and Guy Coviello of the Youngstown Warren Regional Chamber. With John, we talk about his research on the Rust Belt, how segregation impacts the region, how immigrants play a pivotal role in the workforce and what Trump's tariffs mean for labor. Then, Guy explains how 3D printing is revolutionizing Northeast Ohio, how the area could actually protect the country from nuclear missile strikes and why Trump resonated with the area. In this episode, we also give you a taste of each interview as well as break down Conor Lamb's upset victory in Pennsylvania, and the National Walk Out by students to push for gun control.
