S01E01 The German Robot
Todd works overtime to get a new robotic welding arm up and running to improve the refinery’s productivity. Audrey debates joining the “family business.” And an incident at work opens a job in management, reigniting...
The pressure is on as Todd and his team work to get the flare stack up and running. With some extra help from old friends, they just might be able to pull it off, saving the refinery and their little industry town. But at what cost?
In a blue-collar community where the high stress of working in a refinery is balanced by the comedic high-wire antics of its plant workers, The Trades centres around pipefitter Todd and his sister and roommate, Audrey, who follows in her big brother’s footsteps pursuing a career in the trades as a carpenter, just like their father Rod.
