Description

When a butterfly flaps its wings, it causes storms around the world. When enough ships get stuck or delayed, economies, stock markets and, of course, you all pay the price.


In episode five of Ship Happens, we dive into the broader economic ramifications of supply chains. We track how water bottles are manufactured, the impact of inflation (or perceived inflation - cue ominous music), and more. This isn't an esoteric Econ 101 class. It's how the ships that sail impact how much you pay at checkout every single day.
