The world is deep into the supply chain apocalypse at this point.

And frankly, all signs suggest we have a long way to go before we're out of the woods.

You might be wondering why things are still so broken.

And I brought a globe with me.

But as you know, the Port of Los Angeles is backed up.

We're going to find an alternative port to go to.

 Right; all the way to Canada, yep.

 It's a container ship that I found out about. It took this trip back in November.

Cleveland in November, which is freezing - and I am standing out on the dock in the wind, right downtown.

So all around the world, container ships were getting bigger and bigger, but the canals and the Great Lakes - they were the same size.

 If rates are low, it makes no sense. If rates are high, then you can find a way for it to make sense. Rates are high right now because of the backlog and the bottlenecks, especially on the West Coast.
