The Gunn Show Goes Live at ARMA Austin: Pop Culture, Passion, and Manufacturing Insight!

Y’all ready for this?”

Picture this: Austin, Texas—home of SXSW vibes and the best barbecue joints known to humankind—was buzzing, not just with techies and artists but with the roaring spirit of American manufacturing. This time, ARMA (Austin Regional Manufacturers Association) welcomed none other than Tony Gunn from The Gunn Show and Kevin Fincher, ARMA’s very own President and CEO, for an unforgettable, adrenaline-packed, live podcast session.

Kevin and Tony threw the doors open, Austin-style, and invited in the real MVPs: the manufacturers, the thinkers, and the game-changers who make this industry thrive. We had a rotating cast of folks from the audience step up, grab the mic, and drop some serious knowledge. It was like America’s Got Talent, but instead of singers, we had engineers, machinists, and CEOs breaking down real-world innovation and industry trends.

Our guests shared stories from the shop floor to the boardroom, dishing out insights about what keeps the engines of manufacturing humming in 2024. And because this is The Gunn Show, we didn’t just talk data and production metrics; we got into the why—the passion behind the process, the grind that gets overlooked, and the heart that keeps this industry moving forward.
