“Save your neck or save your brother
Looks like it’s one or the other
Oh, you don’t know the shape I’m in” – From The Shape I’m In by The Band

The state of the supply chain, and the shape we’re in, was the topic of a discussion on this week’s episode of the Mr. Beacon Podcast, hosted by Steve Statler, the SVP of marketing at Wiliot.
Be sure to listen wherever you get your podcasts.
