The news is full of stories of supply chain issues, goods shortages, and delayed deliveries these days. The latest news though is serious - it seems the global supply chain issues may mean your Christmas presents might not arrive on time! If you haven't bought your presents yet, it may be too late!

To talk about this, I invited my colleague (and author of the Christmas presents news story I linked to above) Richard Howells to come on the podcast to tease out this story.

We had a great conversation spanning the causes of the supply chain problems, the implications for Christmas, and some ways to mitigate the issues.  I learned loads, I hope you do too...
