With special guest Rajeeb Mohapatra joining the discussion, we dive deep into what this means for brands and retailers. Will Q4 be disrupted beyond repair?

🔹 Flexport’s Uncertain Future: Once valued at $8 billion, Flexport is now downsizing, losing clients, and struggling to stay relevant. Is CEO Ryan Petersen’s "Leg Up Program" enough to save them? We analyze the company's recent moves, what insiders are saying, and whether Flexport can survive or if it's already a “walking dead” company. Plus, a surprise appearance from Jason Murray offers more insight into the logistics giant's fate.
