Marshall here. Welcome back to the realignment.

Hey everyone, welcome back to the show. Today's episode features a return appearance

by one of my favorite previous realignment guests,

Peter S Goodman, the Global Economics Correspondent at the New York Times.

When Peter last came on the show, we discussed his previous book, Davos Mann, that explored all the ways that the global, political, financial, and economic elite tilt the economic playing field in their favor despite the protestations that their policies are actually the best way forward for everyone.

Really recommended the book and of course the conversation we had back a few years ago.

In this conversation we focus on Peter's new book,

how the world ran out of Everything Inside the Global Supply Chain.

In this conversation, we cover all the ways that supply chains are still deeply relevant to each

of our lives, everything from inflation to the actual vulnerabilities of the cover period revealed

and of course we discussed the degree to which we've actually made improvements to make our system

less vulnerable and what work remains to be done. Really great conversation, really great book, highly recommend them of course.

If you would like to learn more, of course, check out Peter's work linked in the show notes.

Huge thank you to the foundation for American innovation for the work of this

podcast.
