This week we're crossing the border for the very first time! Brooke Laing and Eric Hyatt join us all the way from Toronto, both steamfitter apprentices with Local 46 and co-hosts of their own podcast, Two Bolts Short of a Flange. We get into the ins and outs of the Canadian apprenticeship system, what it's actually like to work in a steel mill, and the very real generational gap that's been left behind in the skilled trades.
Brooke also opens up about her experience as a woman in the trades, how she became a moderator for the Sisterhood of Trades, and why LinkedIn has been a game changer for tradespeople looking to build their careers. Plus, we hear the hilarious origin story behind their podcast name and how a late night trip to Buffalo with Nush sparked it all.
