Summary

Maybe Bernie AND Trump were right. Can "buying American" solve our political divide and supply chain problems? American Giant founder and CEO Bayard Winthrop believes so — and his company is living proof. He created what many in the press have dubbed “the best hoodie ever made,” and as others deal with a global supply chain nightmare, American Giant is doing just fine. But that’s not where his business career started. Winthrop joins Glenn to tell his true American success story, to make the case that local small businesses are how we win, and to urge Americans to put principles over price, no matter how dirt-cheap those slave-made products from China are. America’s “entrepreneurial spirit is alive and well,” Winthrop argues, and he explains why that — and starting every day with a freezing cold shower — makes all the difference.   This week’s sponsors:   The makers of Built Bar understand that flavor comes first — mint brownie, salted caramel, cookies ’n cream, and many other amazing flavors. But they’re also healthy. Low calorie, low carb, high in protein and high in fiber.

Slack.com slash DHQ. There's a verse in Proverbs that say where there is no vision, the

0:33.1

people perish. It means if there aren't leaders offering real solutions or a better vision

0:40.6

for the future, things just naturally get worse. Somebody's got to stand up on a hill

0:45.6

and go, look, it's going to get better this way. When I talk to you, I warn you about all

0:53.0

the ways things are trending towards chaos. But I also want you to hear from people who

0:58.5

are coming up with real solutions. Even if they're people that I may not vote the same

way with, we have to look for people with solutions. Today, I have one of those solution-makers

in the studio with me. He's a businessman doing what we are increasingly told is impossible,

1:16.1

making their products 100% in the USA. He was not always like that. He was part of the,

1:22.2

just ship the jobs overseas. Let's make money for a long time. Then something happened and

1:27.2

he changed. Like all of us, he is watching the US Global Supply Chain Arrowed before his

1:32.6

eyes and other business leaders make excuses. He is making plans for a future that prioritizes

domestic business. His message should be heard from coast to coast because he's right.
