What can be done about a shortage of tradies?
from Afternoons
We could be about to face a shortage of some tradies according to new figures from Infometrics. It's forecast that about 1450 plumbing, gasfitting and drainlaying jobs will need to be filled in the next year. To find out what's going with plumbers and what we can do about it Jesse is joined by Rhiannon Jarvis. Rhiannon is the owner-operator at Jarvis Plumbing and Gasworks in Lower Hutt.

FoodTravelUSA with Elizabeth Dougherty
Elizabeth Dougherty
Using the chassis of a food and travel show, Elizabeth Dougherty has carved out her own lane in Talk Radio, covering the contamination of the food supply and the travel restrictions placed upon us by an overreaching government. The show also covers data protection, self-sufficiency and homesteading-related topics to help protect to us from this evil, corrupt system. With Elizabeth as the host, the show has a very different sound from the typical male-oriented talk radio. In combination with terrestrial stations that carry the show, we reach people who don't normally listen to politically-driven talk radio. In addition to the LIVE FEED of the show on Saturday afternoons from 5pm-7pm (eastern) / 2pm-4pm (pacific) we produce and distribute a dozen podcast / segments each week.Website: FoodTravelUSA.comHost: Elizabeth DoughertyLive Broadcast: Saturday 5pm Executive Producer: Michael SerioEmail: [email protected]
The American Story
Christopher Flannery
Every generation of Americans has been faced with the same question: how should we live? Our endlessly interesting answers have created The American Story. The weekly episodes published here stretch from battlefields and patriot graves to back roads, school yards, bar stools, city halls, blues joints, summer afternoons, old neighborhoods, ball parks, and deserted beaches—everywhere you find Americans being and becoming American. They are true stories about what it is that makes America beautiful, what it is that makes America good and therefore worthy of love. Each episode aims in some small way to awaken the better angels of our nature, to welcome us into and encourage us to enrich the great American story.
