Ready to have your mind blown? We're dissecting the ripple effects of the food delivery industry giants like Uber Eats, Deliveroo, and Just Eat on our global supply chain. That's not all. We're also digging into the gritty realities of safety concerns and the shocking allegations of modern slavery that plague these companies. And if you think the conversation stops at mere food delivery - think again. We're tracking the disruptions caused by Stellantis' bold move to offer buyouts to its US employees as they make the monumental shift to electric vehicles. How will this affect the automobile industry? You'll have to listen to find out.
Wake up to the geopolitical dance between President Joe Biden and China's Xi Jinping. What are the economic benefits? How will the thorny issues surrounding the South China Sea be addressed? We're breaking it all down. Plus, as we gear up for the holiday season, we're casting a critical eye on the changing landscape of Black Friday. Yes, consumer fatigue is real, and it's reshaping this once blockbuster shopping event. And just when you thought we're done, we weigh in on the Post Office's decision to offer customers alternative package delivery options. So, buckle up for a deep-dive into the dynamics of the global supply chain, geopolitics, and the holiday shopping season. It's a thought-provoking conversation you simply can't afford to miss.
