For the last year and a half, tariffs have been harder to predict than the weather in Seattle. And that’s created a volatile climate for businesses. Now that the Supreme Court has overturned some of President Trump's tariffs, there’s a storm front looming between companies and their customers over who gets to pocket tariff refunds. A lot of people are wondering – where's my refund? And when will rising prices finally level off? On today's episode, we checked with some local companies to find out how they're navigating the tariff turmoil. Coming up: Is AI causing you to work more or less?
