In this week’s episode I am chatting with Martha Bennett Global Vice President of Marketing Excellence for 3M and Cedric Smith a welder out of Minnesota. 3M recently put out a documentary entitled Skilled that was released at the Sundance Film Festival, which highlights different industries in the Skilled Trades to bring  awareness and information to the next generation. As most of you all know, there’s a huge shortage of people across all industries of Blue Collared Trades. 3M is doing their part to get more people involved in the different industries. Checkout the Skilled film Here It will be available for streaming on Apple TV+, Google Play, Kanopy, Prime Video and The Roku Channel on May 3. It’s being translated into French, French Canadian, German, Italian, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese, Spanish, Castillian Spanish and Thai for promotion across 17 countries. In partnership with Teach For America, it will be shown in classrooms and supported by discussion guides to facilitate conversations about skilled trades. It debuted at an officially sanctioned 2023 Sundance Film Festival event and has been accepted for AmDocs and the Los Angeles International Children’s Film Festival. Other film festival submissions are in the works.  Arc Junkies Podcast: Instagram: @Arcjunkiespodcast Email: Show@arcjunkies.com LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jason-becker-45407b72?lipi=urn%3Ali%3Apage%3Ad_flagship3_profile_view_base_contact_details%3BKipEwR3uQXCmCjaEfNzo6w%3D%3D Arc Junkies Website: https://arcjunkies.com Arc junkies Merch: https://shop.threadmob.com/arcjunkie/shop/home   Friends of the Show: Rockmount Research and Alloys, Inc.
