Easy listening wherever you are

Just like podcasts in general — they now number a staggering 850,000 — supply chain podcasts have grown in popularity in recent years, spurred by increased smartphone use and the ease they let you absorb new information. Some, like Talking Logistics, founded in 2015, and the Inbound Logistics Podcast, founded in 2016, are veterans in the group. Others, like The Digital Supply Chain podcast, premiered last year. But, clearly, there’s even more to say.

Logistics Matters With DC Velocity is available on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Stitcher, TuneIn, Google Podcasts, iHeart Radio, and many other platforms, as well as at dcvelocity.com/podcasts. DC Velocity’s new supply chain podcast is produced by AGiLE Business Media, a leading publisher of business content for logistics, material handling, and supply chain executives.
