The tariffs dropped. But the danger didn’t.
In episode 6 of Survive the Tariffs, we unpack the sudden whiplash-inducing shift from 145% to 30% tariffs on Chinese imports — and why that sudden relief could be more of a trap than triumph.
Host Paul Edwick is joined by Wade and Jessica for a no-spin, no-fluff analysis of what business leaders need to be doing right now — not just to respond, but to survive.
You'll learn:
- Why the market of January 19 isn’t coming back — and why some SKUs need to stay dead.
- What to do with stock that landed at the worst possible time.
- How July 8 and August 12 deadlines could still detonate your Q4 strategy.
- Why “renegotiation” isn’t a silver bullet — and what smart importers are really asking for.
- How to spot misalignment across ops, finance, and sales before it costs you.
- Why Apple’s iPhone dodged tariffs — and your cartons of toys didn’t.
Plus: penguin jokes, real numbers, bad bank calls, and one very simple checklist for Monday morning.
This isn’t a recovery story. It’s a survival playbook — and it’s Episode 6 of Survive the Tariffs.
