What's up everyone?

For Episode 24, I'm joined by Dr. Bradley Sommer (@historybrad on the Bird app), and we're talking about the Rust Belt, the place both he and I will always call home. We talk about it's importance to the growth of the country, the different sectors of manufacturing that made up the area, the policies that drove that manufacturing out, and how the area is bouncing back today. Enjoy the episode!
