This is a regular topic for us, but in past episodes, we’ve only discussed from an industry perspective. Today, we look at manufacturing’s next-gen workforce from those on the front lines – educators. Our host, Michael Thiessen is joined by deans from two Oakland Schools Technical Campuses (OSTC), David Wyatt and Paul Galbenski. The group discusses everything from how OTSC works with local school districts to provide students with technical curriculum to what programs are the most popular, as well as the benefits and opportunities these schools and programs provide to students – those who may or may not be on an educational track that includes college. 

It’s an insightful conversation, even for those who aren’t in the area of OTSC, because these types of programs are critical to the future of manufacturing and other industries. To learn more about OSTC, visit https://www.ostconline.com/

The Brothers Ortiz

The Brothers Ortiz

The Brothers Ortiz is the story of two brothers–both successful, but in very different ways. Gabe Ortiz becomes a third-highest ranking officer in all of Texas while his younger brother Larry climbs the ranks in Puro Tango Blast, a notorious Texas Prison gang. Gabe doesn’t know all the details of his brother’s nefarious dealings, and he’s made a point not to ask, to protect their relationship. But when Larry is murdered during a home invasion in a rented beach house, Gabe has no choice but to look into what happened that night. To solve Larry’s murder, Gabe, and the whole Ortiz family, must ask each other tough questions.
