The Power of Podcasting: Featuring Ryan Lucas, Host of the Powerline Podcast

Ryan Lucas, who was born in British Columbia, Canada, grew up around the line trade and spent 15 years in the field, five years in management and then instructed line school students. During his career, he worked in remote, urban environments and also specialized in helicopter and barehand work. In March 2019, he launched the Powerline Podcast as a way to share stories about the line trade. During our podcast interview at the 2024 International Lineman's Expo, Ryan talked about his favorite guests he's had on the show--from an astronaut to a decorated military veteran--and how he can give back to the trade through podcasting.
