Are tariffs still something to worry about? Tariffs might sound like a distant, big-business issue, but as Bruce Kaminstein shares, their impact is immediate and destructive for small businesses across the country. In this episode of Cut to the Chase: Podcast, Gregg welcomes back Bruce Kaminstein—Angel Investor, Founder of Casabella, and CNBC Contributor—to break down the real impacts of this overlooked crisis. He explains—from real math and real-world examples—how quickly tariffs can push companies to the financial brink, why moving manufacturing isn't as simple as picking another country, and why “Made in America” is often an impractical dream due to capital, workforce, and regulatory barriers. What you'll learn in this episode: The brutal impact of unpredictable tariffs—and how sudden spikes up to 145% are gutting small businesses across America The hidden cost of supply chain disruption: Why reshoring sounds good politically but fails economically for most industries An insider look at how planning becomes impossible when trade policy shifts overnight—killing innovation, cash flow, and inventory control How inflation is fueled by tariffs—and why empty shelves and rising prices are just the beginning The double standard in trade policy: How corporate lobbyists win exemptions while small businesses are left defenseless Why “Made in America” isn't a silver bullet—and the real challenges of rebuilding U.S. manufacturing from the ground up How small businesses, despite driving nearly half of the economy, have no voice in the tariff conversation Key Takeaways: Protect Small Businesses from Tariff Spikes: Sudden tariff increases hit small businesses hardest, leaving them with two bad options—raise prices or take losses—putting their survival at risk. Rethink "Reshoring" Assumptions: Moving supply chains isn't quick or cheap. Most small businesses can't afford the costs, lost relationships, or infrastructure gaps needed to relocate or return production to the U.S. Plan for Tariff Volatility: Constant tariff changes wreck forecasting. Uncertainty around pricing, inventory, and logistics cripples growth, cash flow, and customer trust—killing innovation at the root.

In a time of economic uncertainty, shifting trade policies, and looming recession fears, tariffs are more than just headlines—they're game changers for small businesses. So, how are tariffs affecting the future of American business in a globalized economy? In this episode of Cut to the Chase: Podcast, Gregg sits down with Bruce Kaminstein, Founder of Casabella and member of New York Angels, to unpack how tariffs are influencing global trade, small business strategy, and the future of U.S. manufacturing. Did you know nearly 45% of the U.S. GDP comes from small businesses—many of which rely on global supply chains? Bruce shares why startups often favor innovation over domestic manufacturing, and how tariff fluctuations are forcing tough choices. What you'll learn in this episode: The real impact of tariffs on small business operations Why many startups avoid U.S.-based manufacturing Reciprocal tariffs: a level playing field or a new challenge? Is reshoring production to the U.S. really possible? What the future holds for global trade dynamics Whether you're an entrepreneur, investor, or simply curious about economic trends, this conversation delivers insights you won't want to miss. Key Takeaways: Impact on Costs: Tariffs significantly increase the prices of imported goods, causing a ripple effect that affects retail pricing and ultimately impacts sales and consumers. The challenge is in balancing these increased costs in a competitive market. Manufacturing Dilemma: The U.S. lacks sufficient factories to manufacture many consumer products domestically, especially low-ticket items. Forcing production back home might not only be unfeasible in the short-term but also strategically questionable for certain product categories, given environmental regulations and labor availability. Reciprocal Tariffs Complexity: While reciprocal tariffs aim to level the playing field, the erratic implementation can create uncertainty for businesses. A more stable, negotiated approach may offer a solution that supports innovation without stifling small businesses.

Jamie and Bo do da real talk & the importance of prior experiences with long time pyromusical designer, and Sky Wars 2023 Pro participant; Casabella's Tim Traphagan.  

Dong Gong, founder and Design Principal of Vector Architects, Beijing-based firm, one of the most interesting and authoritative figures among Chinese architects, globally applauded with important recognitions, is our guest in this podcast. After his Bachelor's and Master's at the Tsinghua University, he spent about seven years in US, for another Master of Architecture at the University of Illinois and working at the offices of Richard Meier and Steven Holl in New York. Practicing architect and academic educator, he has seen his extremely brilliant career acknowledged by prestigious local and international rewards. Elected as the Foreign Member of French Academy of Architecture in 2019, appointed as the Plym Distinguished Visiting Professor at University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, and Visiting Professor of Polytechnic University of Turin, Italy, he has been teaching design studios at Tsinghua University and Central Academy of Fine Arts since 2014. Guest speaker and critic at prominent academic and professional institutions around the world, he has been invited to various major exhibitions, including the first Chinese architecture exhibition at MoMA New York; the 2018 “FREESPACE” Venice Biennale. The firm has been awarded the “RIBA International Awards for Excellence” for two projects in the same year, 2021, “100+ Best Architecture Firms” selected by Domus (2019), nominated for the Swiss Architectural Award (2018); overall winner of“Archmarathon Awards” in 2016; and “Design Vanguard” selected by Architectural Record (2014) and the projects, collected as a monograph in the renowned architectural journal AV Monographs, have been widely published in Casabella, Arquitectura Viva, The New York Times, A+U, Detail, The Architectural Review, L'Architecture d'Aujourd'hui, Lotus, Domus and many others. Opportunity of the conversation is offered by the current exhibition at the MoMa, N.Y, dedicated to the new generation of independent Chinese architects Dong Gong belongs to, deepening the passionate commitment he has always demonstrated towards resource-consciousness and awareness of social and cultural traditional values, leading his own practice working independently from state-run design institutes. We dwell on his architecture of deceleration and more contemplation, against a too fast urbanisation that a decade ago has dramatically transformed a vernacular, familiar context into a generic, unemotional and alien environment and on the respectful attempt of his interventions seeking to guarantee continuity with the past, offering emotionally involving experiences for the people.Urban and natural landscapes have demonstrated his innate and attentive sensibility decoding and deciphering the energies of multiple, diverse sites: Suochengli Neighborhood Library, a regenerative intervention related to a typical Chinese courtyard-block, in the historical district of Yantai, a port city in northern China, is an evident testimony of revitalization, based on a brilliant dialogue reactivated between past and present. The Captain's House, famous, award-winning work related to a house that sit on the rocks, on a cliff by the sea, on the Peninsula of Beijiao Village, in Fujian Province, represents another extremely significant intervention that, motivated by the need to address conditions of deterioration of the building, has provided a series of unexpected and unrequested important, valuable additions on an aesthetic-emotional level and from a social point of view. Light is another element that plays a fundamental role in his architecture, often revealing an intense aspiration to break limitations and boundaries as exemplary suggests the small Seashore Chapel, in close contact with the infinity of the ocean or intending to help meditation, relaxation and enjoyment as in the Seashore library.

Mirko Zardini, an architect, is the Director and Chief Curator of the Canadian Centre for Architecture since 2005. His research engages the transformation of contemporary architecture by questioning and relooking at the assumptions on which architects operate today. Imperfect Health: The Medicalization of Architecture (2011), his latest exhibition, exposes the excessive optimism in the therapeutic role of architecture. Zardini has been editor for Casabella and Lotus International magazine and his writings have been widely published. He has taught design and theory at architecture schools in Europe and the United States, including Harvard University GSD, Princeton University SoA, Swiss Federal Polytechnic University (ETH) at Zurich, and the Federal Polytechnic at Lausanne (EPFL).
