Reviews

4.5 out of 5 stars from 247 ratings
  • Lacks depth and authenticity

    The presentation is a shallow, style-over-substance affair, delivered with stylistic parallels to a mega-church sermon. Expect meandering ramblings like forced analogies between football and supply chain management, and forced humor right when a topic is gaining any depth. Aimed squarely at the lowest common denominator.

  • Insightful and engaging!

    It’s obvious that the Supply Chain Now team puts extraordinary effort into every single episode of the podcast. But what makes this show a true standout is the quality of the guests, stories, and strategies shared. Highly recommend listening and subscribing!

  • Outdated information.

    10 minuets into an episode in 06/21 they finished talking about sports accolades to shove an advertisement for the guest.

    Next episode I listened to they talked about prices of semi conductors in 1990.

    Listen to these guys complain about how life has changed if you love outdated podcasts.
