292: Catch Up from May: Tarrifs, Travel and Tim's Big Move
Update: 2025-07-26
Description
Recorded May 13, 2025
This “lost” episode of The AV Life goes back to a recording that didn’t post when originally captured but remains as relevant as ever. Host Tim Van Woeart is joined by Joe Way and Renee Benson for an unfiltered conversation that blends industry insight with personal updates and plenty of laughs.
The crew talks about Tim’s career transition to Rutgers Newark, the frantic run-up to InfoComm, and how tariffs, supply chain quirks, and travel shifts are changing the conversation in higher ed AV. It’s part industry talk, part after-hours planning session (yes, party invites included), and all classic AV Life.
The AV Life is a Higher Ed AV Media production.
