Reviews

4.5 out of 5 stars from 250 ratings
  • Topical and Insightful

    I’m a relatively new listener (about a month in), and I’ve really enjoyed the thoughtful, practical insights from industry leaders on what’s actually happening inside businesses today.

    What stands out most is the consistent reminder that AI adoption still comes back to practical business use cases — and that it requires the same sound operational discipline that has always mattered.

    Appreciate the grounded perspective. Keep up the great content.

  • 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.

    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!
