Healthcare talks a lot about growth, access, and consumerism. But there's a growing problem hiding in plain sight: demand is getting easier to create, while supply remains stubbornly hard to deliver. In this episode, Chris Boyer and Reed Smith unpack a tension many health systems are feeling but rarely name out loud. As digital marketing, online scheduling, and consumer-first strategies mature, organizations are getting better at generating demand. Too often, that demand runs headfirst into real constraints on the supply side: provider schedules, clinic capacity, access center workflows, EMR logic, bylaws, and reimbursement realities. The result? Campaigns that work. Experiences that break. And patients who did everything right, only to be told there are no appointments available. The conversation starts with a quick reset on classic supply-and-demand economics and why those models fall apart in healthcare. From there, Chris and Reed explore: Why marketing is being asked to drive demand without influence over supply How digital tools are exposing access gaps that have always existed The disconnect between growth strategy, clinical operations, and access management Why “no appointments available” may be the most expensive UX pattern in healthcare What a route-first approach to access could look like in practice This is not about blaming clinicians or oversimplifying a complex system. It's about naming the mismatch, understanding the incentives, and starting a more honest conversation about how demand and supply actually meet inside modern health systems. If healthcare is serious about consumerism, it has to get serious about access.

In this episode, we explore everything from missing teaspoons and land acknowledgments to capital punishment and medieval economic thinking. We examine what everyday shortages reveal about prices and incentives, debate China's use of executions for online scams, and unpack why symbolic gestures like mandatory land acknowledgments often collapse under scrutiny. We're also joined by Andrew Heaton, host of The Political Orphanage podcast, to discuss zero-sum thinking, inequality versus poverty, and why so many economic intuitions still haven't escaped the Dark Ages. Along the way, we look at profit caps, price controls, and the persistent temptation to treat economics like theology rather than systems thinking. 00:00 Introduction and Overview 00:28 Land Acknowledgment 01:30 The Curious Case of the Disappearing Teaspoons 03:31 What Teaspoons Teach Us About Prices and Resources 06:04 China Executes Online Scammers 08:21 When Capital Punishment Expands Too Far 09:51 Foolishness of the Week: Mandatory Land Acknowledgments 13:13 Free Speech, Property Theory, and a Faculty Lawsuit 18:32 Andrew Heaton Joins the Show 21:12 Economics Thinking That Never Escaped the Dark Ages 24:42 Zero-Sum Thinking and the Origins of Envy 27:37 Why Humans Think in Proportions, Not Absolutes 29:53 Inequality vs. Poverty 34:59 Greed, Merchants, and Medieval Economics 37:20 Why Price Controls Never Work 41:08 Theology vs. Economics 42:43 Why Profit Caps Backfire 48:09 Supply and Demand Is Not Optional 51:48 Systems Thinking vs. Witch Hunts 55:01 Why Bad Incentives Create Bad Outcomes Learn more about your ad choices.

Becoming a Source of Supply by De Wen Soh

Beth Hendriks talks about Infios: what they do; intelligent supply chain execution; moving AI from hype to outcomes; & what 2026 will bring for the industry.     IN THIS EPISODE WE DISCUSS:   [03.33] An overview of Beth's 30-plus year career and how she learned to balance it with motherhood. "I'm a mother of six, and that gave me a lot of skills to be effective in my everyday job… To balance challenges, to learn to prioritize, and how to have peace in the midst of chaos." [06.07] An overview of Infios and what they do, and what their recent mergers and acquisitions mean for their customers. "Being data-driven is crucial because, as we get into things like AI, it's only as good as the data that feeds it." "For our customers, the acquisitions translate into broader functionality with less integration complexity, so they benefit from a more connected platform that allows them to align inventory, fulfilment and transportation decisions." [08.57] The ideal customer for Infios. [11.06] From poor visibility and slow decision-making to an inability to coordinate across channels, the common challenges Infios customers experience, and how Infios help to solve them by delivering tighter control over planning and execution through unification. "Customers come to Infios when their operational complexity has outgrown either their existing systems or processes and is starting to impact from a cost, service level or scalability perspective." "They want to run a more agile, efficient, resilient supply chain while keeping pace with ongoing disruption and growth." [14.00] What 'intelligent supply chain execution' means, the benefits, and the impact it's driving for Infios customers. [18.04] How Infios' modular technology helps tackle historical tech stack issues and support quicker testing, flexibility, and transformation. "It ultimately results in a supply chain execution platform that evolves with the business, rather than constraining it, and it supports continuous improvement instead of periodic disruptive overhauls." [22.23] Beth's perspective on AI in the current market, the gap between hype and reality, and how Infios is driving AI with purpose. "Many organizations talk about AI in conceptual terms: 'AI is going to help transform my supply chain'… But, in practice, common challenges like fragmented data, legacy systems and unclear ROI means most are still in early stages of adoption." "Hype around AI hasn't fully materialized into broad operational impact." [27.00] A case study exploring how Infios helped a customer struggling with slow order-to-ship cycles and low inventory visibility by implementing an integrated stack that resulted in 70% fewer back orders, a 20% increase in customer satisfaction, and improved delivery accuracy as well as lowered inventory costs. [30.42] Why Infios believe that the future can be better if we make supply chains better, and their vision for moving toward it. "Supply chains quietly shape almost every aspect of modern life – people that aren't familiar with it don't even realize the impact it has." [34.13] What 2026 is going to bring for the industry, and for Infios. "2026 is going to be a year of practical AI adoption, tighter integration and smarter execution."

The American Red Cross has declared a severe blood shortage after the nationwide flu outbreak and widespread snowfall across the country. They say the national blood supply has fallen 35% over the past month with 350 blood drives from Oklahoma to Maine were cancelled because of the winter storm, which would have collected 10,000 units of blood. FOX's Tonya J. Powers speaks with Dr. Courtney Lawrence, Division Chief Medical Officer of the American Red Cross, who says the shortage significant and is asking folks in good health who can drive safely to a donation center to do so.

The emergence of Moltbot, an open source AI agent designed to operate across various messaging platforms and automate tasks through local device execution, is creating new risk vectors for MSPs and IT providers. Functioning with admin-level access and connecting to services like OpenAI and Google, Moltbot's deployment has raised direct concerns around authority delegation without sufficient governance. Security researchers identified hundreds of exposed Moltbot instances, often due to misconfiguration, increasing the possibility of breaches and unauthorized data access. The episode underscores that these agents, treated as productivity tools, actually represent operational infrastructure capable of independent action, with potential impacts on client trust and regulatory liability.Expert sources cited in the discussion, including Cisco and Hudson Rock, have labeled Moltbot a security risk due to its storage of sensitive information in plain text and broad access permissions. The narrative warns that vendors and providers may underestimate the risks by normalizing deployment before establishing proper controls. Once these agents are embedded into workflows, reversing their use becomes difficult due to client reliance on perceived efficiency. The lack of mature governance frameworks, as shown by studies from Drexel University, means that many organizations lack even basic oversight of these autonomous agents.Adjacent industry developments highlight additional layers of operational complexity. Apple posted a 16% revenue increase, led by iPhone demand, and acquired Q AI to deepen its ambient automation capabilities, while shifting defaults that providers cannot easily influence or control. Simultaneously, the Linux community's succession planning and Microsoft's ongoing struggles with Windows 11 reliability further demonstrate systemic issues around authority, trust, and transparency in technology ecosystems.The episode's analysis signals clear expectations for MSPs and technology leaders: explicit approval protocols for AI agents are necessary, akin to traditional admin controls. Providers must proactively define governance boundaries, anticipate non-billable labor resulting from automation failures, and assess vendor behavior in terms of roadmap rigidity and escalation pathways. Teaching clients about authority in automated environments, not just managing installations, will reduce exposure and clarify accountability as agentic technologies become standard.Three things to know today00:00 Moltbot's Rise Highlights How AI Agents Are Becoming High-Risk Operators Without Governance03:49 Record iPhone Sales and a $2 Billion AI Acquisition Signal Apple's Long-Term Control Strategy06:04 Leadership Succession, Software Trust, and AI Agents Reveal a Shared Governance ProblemThis is the Business of Tech.   Supported by:  ScalePad 

Supply-demand imbalance drives value in Real Estate. In this country, we have a severe shortage of affordable housing in many markets and therefore high occupancy levels. In the case of Mobile Home Parks, supply is not only not growing, it is actually shrinking because municipalities are repurposing the land Mobile Home Parks occupy for better perceived uses. This is what's creating an undersupply. Nathan Jameson, Founder and Managing Director of ARX Capital, has an incredible track record of buying, improving, and operating Mobile Home Parks in Pennsylvania and surrounding states. He's now raising his third fund and taking his successful formula to markets in the Midwest. 

Gina Szymanski, chief investment officer at AEW Capital Management's global securities business, joined the latest episode of the REIT Report to share her insights into the year ahead. She noted that REITs are facing a favorable macroeconomic backdrop marked by good demand, moderating supply, and stable interest rates.“The setup for us is great. and I would highly recommend the average investor take a look at REITs,” Szymanski said. “We're experiencing some of the best growth that we've ever experienced,” she added.For the most part, the sectors that AEW has been overweight in are still favorites, Szymanski said. Number one on that list is senior housing, where AEW has been overweight across the globe. Data centers are in second place, followed by retail. Industrial remains “on the margin,” she added.

Operators of aging F-class units face a narrowing window to plan for rotor life extensions as supply chains tighten and demand surges. The late 1990s and early 2000s marked a frenetic period in American power generation. Deregulation opened the floodgates for independent power producers racing to bring quick-build gas turbine plants online. GE's 7FA and 7EA units became go‑to resources for this expansion, with the manufacturer more than tripling its annual heavy‑duty gas turbine production capacity to meet surging demand. Now, a quarter-century later, those turbines are approaching critical end-of-life thresholds—just as an artificial intelligence (AI)-driven surge in electricity demand is pushing them harder than ever. Industry experts warn that operators who fail to plan for rotor life extensions could find themselves in serious trouble. “If you're not thinking two to three years down the road on your rotor, then you're already behind, because that's how long it's going to take to manufacture those wheels,” Jason Wheeler, General Manager of Gas Turbine Rotor Repairs at MD&A, said as a guest on The POWER Podcast. A Perfect Storm of Constraints The urgency stems from a confluence of factors that have compressed the window for action. The 7FA fleet, which was deployed en masse during what industry veterans call “the bubble,” is now reaching the hour and cycle limits that the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) established for critical rotor components. At the same time, the power generation sector is experiencing a demand renaissance driven by data center construction and electrification. Dave Fernandes, MD&A's Gas Turbine Program Manager, experienced the original boom firsthand as a GE field engineer specializing in 7F and 9F units from 1996 to 2001. He sees important differences between then and now. “There seems to be a lot more concrete reasons and a much stronger foundation for this current bubble than the previous one that took place two and a half decades ago,” Fernandes said. “There are a lot of things that are all stacking up at the same time that put more of an emphasis on getting out in front of extending the life of your current assets now, probably more than ever.” Supply chains have become particularly challenging. The specialized superalloy forgings required for turbine wheels are produced by a limited number of facilities worldwide, and those forging houses are simultaneously serving aerospace, military, and new power generation equipment markets. “You're going to be competing with those new unit sales across various industries in an attempt to get in line with what is perceived from some angles as higher priorities,” Fernandes explained. “That further complicates the scenario that the customer base is facing when they're trying to extend the rotor life of their existing assets.”

The United States of America will be celebrating the 250th anniversary of its founding this year. And throughout the quarter-millennium since the Declaration of Independence was signed, corn farmers have been feeding and fueling a growing nation. But on the heels of another record corn crop in 2025, what's it going to take to create enough new corn demand to keep up with the supply? In this episode of the Cobcast, we discuss the future of corn with NCGA Chief Economist Krista Swanson and VP of Sustainable Production Sean Arians. Together, we'll explore the roots of this record production, the implications for supply and demand, and the opportunities for new markets, particularly in the biomaterials and ethanol sectors. And we'll consider what new products might help drive agricultural success over the next 250 years.

Imagine a single railroad company that could move freight seamlessly from the ports of Los Angeles to the ports of New York without handoffs, interchange delays, or needing to switch carriers mid-journey. That's the promise behind the proposed merger between the Union Pacific and Norfolk Southern railroads. If the deal is approved, it will create the first single-line transcontinental railroad in U.S. history, spanning more than 50,000 miles across 43 states and nearly 100 ports. Supporters say this could make rail a more serious competitor to long-haul trucking, lowering costs and improving supply chain efficiency. Critics say it risks concentrating too much power in too few hands in an industry where four railroads already control more than 90% of U.S. freight. Earlier this month, regulators hit the reset button. The Surface Transportation Board (STB) rejected the merger application - not on its merits, but because the paperwork was incomplete. In this episode of Art of Supply, Kelly Barner covers: What Union Pacific and Norfolk Southern are proposing, and why it would be historically significant The arguments for the merger, including efficiency, cost, and competition with trucking The arguments against it, from labor, shippers, competitors, and policy advocates Where the Surface Transportation Board fits in, and what the January 2026 rejection means from an approval and timeline standpoint Links: Kelly Barner on LinkedIn Art of Supply LinkedIn newsletter  Art of Supply on AOP Subscribe to This Week in Procurement

We need to stop treating our data like something to be stored and more like a mission critical supply lines.Andrew Schoka spent his military career in offensive cyber, including stints in the Joint Operations Command and Cyber Command. Now he's building Hardshell to solve a problem most organizations don't even realize they have yet.Here's the thing: AI is phenomenal at solving problems in places where data is incredibly sensitive. Healthcare, financial services, defense—these are exactly where AI could make the biggest impact. But there's a problem.Your ML models have a funny habit of remembering training data exactly how it went in. Then regurgitating it. Which is great until it's someone's medical records or financial information or classified intelligence.Andrew makes a crucial point: organizations still think of data as a byproduct of operations—something that goes into folders and filing cabinets. But with machine learning, data isn't a byproduct anymore. It's a critical supply line operating at speed and scale.The question isn't whether your models will be targeted. It's whether you're protecting the data they train and interpret like the supply lines they actually are.Mentioned: Destruction of classified tech in downed helicopter during Osama bin Laden raid

With all sorts of rumours about physical shortages of silver, for your Sunday thought piece today, I spoke to precious metals dealer Joshua Saul to try and find out what is really happening in the metals markets.Joshua Saul has been dealing gold and silver bullion for 20 years. He's never seen anything like what's happening now.His key points: silver is catching up from decades of undervaluation. The gold-silver ratio historically sat at 15:1. In recent years it hit 100:1. That's not a price quirk - it's a structural anomaly that's now correcting.Supply can't keep up. Most silver comes as a byproduct of other mining, so production can't respond quickly to price spikes. Industrial demand is surging (solar, EVs, data centres). Mints are sold out. China's quietly accumulating. Physical premiums are spiking globallyThe Pure Gold Company has metal, but only because they have large contractual commitments with the Royal Mint, but he's clear - this is unprecedented. Even 2008 didn't look like this.Find out more about the Pure Gold Company, here.NB: I was trying out a new camera and I know it looks crap.

Lucien Besse of Shippeo talks about navigating supply chain chaos; data quality & continuous improvement; AI; and the keys to visibility project success.   IN THIS EPISODE WE DISCUSS:   [03.38] An introduction to Lucien and the journey that led him to co-found Shippeo. [07.07] The biggest sources of chaos for supply chain teams, and why they need flexibility and visibility. "Supply chain managers need to make hundreds of decisions every day, every hour, every minute – they need to navigate uncertainty every single day, and that hasn't changed… What has really changed is the number of disruptions." [09.28] Why supply chain professionals are 'the calm in the storm,' what even small problems amidst the backdrop of chaos mean for businesses, and how Shippeo help customers with both inbound and outbound challenges. [15.00] The big issues that sit behind supply chain chaos, and why trust in data is crucial. "Visibility is a commodity, everybody needs it. But accurate visibility is not a commodity. The reliability of the information you provide to the customer needs to be correct, and they need to have the ability to take action. Because the end goal is not just to look at an ETA on a platform, it's to take an action." [18.02] The importance of data quality and why it's a continuous improvement project. "When we talk to our customers, we tell the truth. There is work to be done, there's no magic wand. It's continuous improvement." "Visibility is about technology, but also about process and people." [23.47] The importance of honesty and setting clear expectations in communications with customers, and why three-way collaboration between vendors, carriers and customers is key. [28.37] How data issues impact the success of AI, and how Shippeo is leveraging AI for customers. "There are two main pillars when it comes to AI – data quality and automation of manual tasks, and making visibility actionable through workflows." [33.31] What success looks like, how organizations can ensure their visibility projects are a success, and why change management relies on understanding people and their daily habits. [40.13] The two core areas Shippeo will be focusing on in 2026.   RESOURCES AND LINKS MENTIONED:   Head over to Shippeo's website now to find out more and discover how they could help you too.

In late 2023, one of the world's most critical maritime chokepoints effectively broke. After Hamas' October 7th attack on Israel, Houthi militants began targeting commercial shipping in the Red Sea. Initially, their target was Israel-linked vessels, then they increasingly started targeting anything that passed through. What followed was a near-collapse of confidence in the Suez Canal, a route that normally handles roughly 10–12% of global seaborne trade. Ocean carriers rerouted thousands of ships around the Cape of Good Hope, adding weeks, cost, fuel burn, and complexity to global supply chains. Fast forward to late 2025 and early 2026, and something quietly significant happened: Maersk, the world's second-largest container carrier, sent ships back through the Red Sea. It wasn't a full return or a declaration of victory, but it was a meaningful test. In this episode of the Art of Supply podcast, Kelly Barner covers:  Why Maersk's Red Sea test voyages matter more than they may appear The economic and capacity pressures pushing carriers back toward Suez Why a "safe reopening" may still create winners and losers What procurement and supply chain leaders should be watching for next Links: High Stakes in the Red Sea Kelly Barner on LinkedIn Art of Supply LinkedIn newsletter  Art of Supply on AOP Subscribe to This Week in Procurement

Interview with Nolan Peterson, CEO of Atlas SaltOur previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/atlas-salt-tsxvsalt-rare-public-salt-play-targets-10-of-north-americas-de-icing-market-8676Recording date: 16th January 2026Atlas Salt is positioning itself to address a critical infrastructure need in North America through the development of the Great Atlantic Salt project on Newfoundland's west coast. The company targets the deicing road salt market, where demand consistently outstrips domestic supply by 30-40%, forcing North American buyers to source from Egypt and Chile with significantly longer lead times and higher costs.CEO Nolan Peterson, who joined the company in June 2025, explained the market dynamics: "There is a salt shortage year-over-year when you're balancing domestic production versus domestic needs. And domestically, I'm grouping Canada and the United States as one market." The timing appears particularly opportune, with Ontario currently experiencing severe shortages despite having a full year to prepare following last year's supply crisis.The project's geographic advantage is substantial. Located in Newfoundland with direct port access, Atlas Salt can deliver product to the same markets served by foreign producers in 15 to 20% less time and cost, according to Peterson. This proximity enables rapid response to spot market opportunities and provides supply chain stability that foreign sources cannot match.The updated feasibility study demonstrates robust economics with total capital requirements of approximately $600 million CAD. The project generates an NPV of $920 million CAD with a 21.3% after-tax IRR and $188 million in annual after-tax free cash flow over a 25-year mine life. "Our contrast is that we have steady stable cash flow year after year kind of like a dividend or a bond if you will once you get over that initial hurdle," Peterson explained.Construction activities are beginning imminently following financing completed in October 2025, with the company targeting Q2 2026 for a finalized debt package covering 60-80% of capital needs from sovereign wealth funds and infrastructure banks. Atlas Salt has already signed an MOU with Scotwood Industries, the largest distributor of packaged retail deicing salt in North America, while pursuing additional commercial partnerships and potential vertical integration opportunities.View Atlas Salt's company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/atlas-saltSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Interview with Alex Dorsch, MD & CEO of Chalice MiningRecording date: 20th January 2026Chalice Mining is developing the Western world's leading palladium-nickel-copper project at Gonneville, discovered in 2020 near Perth, Australia. The project has advanced from discovery to prefeasibility study (PFS) stage, with Final Investment Decision (FID) and construction planned for 2028-29.The project's exceptional economics stem from open-pit mining starting at surface level, delivering all-in sustaining costs of $370/oz compared to $900-1,800/oz for South African competitors operating deep underground mines. This positions Gonneville in the second quartile of the global cost curve. The PFS demonstrates a 23-year mine life with NPV8 of A$3.3 billion at current prices and 40% IRR, producing 170,000 oz/year initially and scaling to 250,000 oz/year in stage two.Palladium prices have surged 105% from $880/oz to $1,800/oz over seven months, driven by supply constraints with over 90% production concentrated in Russia and South Africa. Demand remains resilient as electric vehicle adoption progresses slower than anticipated, supporting hybrid vehicles that require palladium catalytic converters.Chalice's two-stage development strategy balances ambition with capital discipline. Stage one requires A$820 million capex, fundable through 50-70% debt financing given strong project margins and abundant critical minerals financing from sovereign wealth providers. The company has invested A$325 million in technical work, including A$15 million on metallurgical testing—significantly more than typical junior miners at this stage.A simplified flowsheet redesign produces three standard products processable by conventional smelters, eliminating downstream technology risk. The project's Perth location provides infrastructure advantages and residential workforce access, reducing capital requirements to A$200-250 million versus multi-billion dollar bills for remote projects.With regulatory approvals expected in early 2028, Chalice offers rare exposure to palladium development outside Russian and South African dominance in a structurally constrained supply market.View Chalice Mining's company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/chalice-miningSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

In this episode, Dr. Tommy Woods, a neuroscientist and performance coach, shares the best practices you should follow if you want to achieve optimal brain health. He also details how how these practices are tied into your overall health. Dr. Wood introduces his 3S Model, “Stimulus, Supply, and Support,” a simple and practical way to think about how the brain adapts, performs, and stays resilient over time. You'll learn why how you use your brain is the primary driver of brain function, how cardiovascular and metabolic health influence cognition, and why sleep is where the real adaptation happens. You'll also hear powerful coaching insights on handling stress (including why you can't think yourself out of stress), practical tools to downshift when you're under pressure, and the science-backed truth that the adult brain can learn “new tricks”. And you'll also learn why mistakes (and the grace to forgive yourself and others when they occur) are so necessary for continued growth. YOU WILL LEARN: How the “Stimulus–Supply–Support” framework make “brain optimization” doable without the overwhelm. You can't “outthink” yourself out of being stressed, but you can learn effective ways to manage it. Why mistakes should be reframed as necessary and critical components to growth.

Operating conditions for supply chains continue to shift faster than most organizations can plan for. Labor pressures, evolving customer expectations, geopolitical uncertainty, and increasingly complex global networks are forcing leaders to rethink how decisions get made and how teams stay aligned when certainty is no longer guaranteed.In this episode of Supply Chain Now, Scott Luton is joined by Mario Morhy, Vice President, Integrated Planning at Sam's Club, Mike Gomes, Vice President of Supply Chain North America at Perfetti Van Melle, and Rodrigo Alponti, Senior Vice President Global Supply Chain at STADA Group. Together, they reflect on how supply chain leadership has evolved over the past year, moving away from linear optimization toward adaptability, resilience, and closer collaboration with customers and partners.The panel also explores how AI is accelerating the pace of insight and action, enabling faster scenario planning, stronger visibility, and more empowered teams. Rather than replacing people, AI emerges as a decision-making copilot, freeing leaders to focus on risk, tradeoffs, and long-term value. The conversation closes with practical leadership takeaways on learning faster than competitors, asking better questions, and building cultures that can turn volatility into advantage.Jump into the conversation:(00:00) Intro(02:58) Mike Gomes shares supply chain leadership insights(04:16) Rodrigo Alponti's global supply chain perspective(06:20) Mario Morhy's role at Sam's Club(08:18) Supply chain challenges and innovations discussed(18:05) Customer centricity in the never normal(25:18) Current challenges in today's supply chain(30:12) Walmart's AI integration in supply chain(32:01) AI as a copilot for supply chain employees(38:07) Transforming volatility into competitive advantage(43:02) Key questions leaders should ask their teamsAdditional Links & Resources:Connect with Mario Morhy: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mariomorhy/Learn more about Sam's Club: https://www.samsclub.com/Connect with Mike Gomes: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mike-gomes-282228/Learn more about Perfetti Van Melle: https://www.perfettivanmelle.com/Connect with Rodrigo Alponti: https://www.linkedin.com/in/rodrigo-alponti-a9873/Learn more about STADA
