Episode Details

Ever wondered what's behind the door of an industrial supply warehouse? This episode explores the parallel retail universe of McMaster-Carr, Grainger, and Uline — companies that sell to factories and labs but will happily take your debit card too. From 144-packs of rubber ducks for $18 to 500-count cases of petri dishes, we break down how wholesale pricing works, why the deadpan product descriptions are comedy gold, and how to navigate shipping costs without getting burned. If you've ever wanted a chemical splash shield for a hazard you'll never face, this one's for you.
