The Michigan Opportunity Radio Show ~ From Power Platforms to Bowling Platforms: Michigan Manufacturing Is Still Rolling!

Aug. 15, 2026 ~ On this episode of The Michigan Opportunity Show on WJR, we bring together two very different Michigan manufacturing stories—with a surprisingly similar theme: building the platforms of the future. In one conversation, Vice Chairwoman of Emotiv Mobility Lori Lancaster, and Strategic Energy Lead at Emotiv Mobility Tony Tomczak, discuss new energy platforms, mobility, electrification, and how Michigan can leverage its manufacturing heritage to compete in the next generation of transportation and energy. In a second conversation, President of MOTIV Bowling Scott Wilbur, takes us inside the world of bowling-ball manufacturing and the technology, engineering, craftsmanship, and Michigan know-how behind a global bowling brand. From electric mobility to bowling balls, from energy platforms to bowling platforms, these are two very different industries demonstrating the same Michigan advantage: we know how to make things—and we're finding new ways to make what comes next.
