From de minimis drama to geopolitical trade shakeups, tariffs are doing more than raising prices, they're forcing a full rewrite of how e-commerce logistics gets done.
Harshida Acharya, Chief Strategy Officer at Fulfillment IQ and host of the eCOM Logistics Podcast, joins the show to explain what these policy changes really mean for brands. If you’re still relying on one warehouse, one fulfillment model, or one country, consider this your wake-up call.
Tariff shifts and de minimis changes are disrupting the global cost structure for e-commerce brands. Brands overly reliant on Chinese imports or DTC fulfillment models are the most exposed. U.S. regulatory changes are pushing a long-term shift toward nearshoring and diversified supply chains. Fulfillment strategy must align with evolving trade rules to remain sustainable. Strategic investments now will separate the survivors from the reactive.

AI is being hyped as the magic bullet for supply chains—but what happens when your infrastructure isn’t ready to support it? In this episode, Blythe Brumleve chats with David Bell, CEO of Cloneops.ai, about the cold, hard realities of deploying AI in logistics. From unreliable data pipelines to the complexity of nearshoring, David breaks down what’s broken, what’s fixable, and what’s still wildly misunderstood.
Whether you're trying to optimize costs or just figure out how to prep your backend systems, this episode delivers the technical insights and strategy talk you didn’t know you needed.
Key takeaways:
Most companies overestimate their AI readiness due to poor data infrastructure.Nearshoring challenges can be solved, but not without multi-tier supply visibility.AI needs structured, reliable, and real-time data to be effective.Cost optimization often breaks down without proper freight data standardization.Internal champions for AI projects must bridge both tech and ops.LINKS:

When AI enters the supply chain, your biggest threat might not be a hacker—it might be a rogue Excel sheet buried deep in your processes.
In this panel from Manifest, Blythe moderates an insightful discussion with data security leaders on what it really takes to secure supply chains in an AI-powered world. From hallucinating large language models to ecosystem-wide vulnerabilities, this episode is packed with honest perspectives you won’t hear on a sales deck.
Panelists included:
Mike Polich, Head of Functional Logistics, HoneywellMahesh Rajasekharan, President & CEO, CleoAdam Anderson, Account Management Lead, CrispIf your data is messy, your AI is useless—and potentially dangerous. This conversation breaks down how to audit internal systems, enforce better access controls, and shift from siloed operations to orchestrated ecosystems ready for intelligent automation.
Key takeaways:
Bad data creates costly, invisible risks.Generative AI cannot work without structured and secure data.Most breaches originate from inside your organization.Companies that collaborate securely outperform those that don’t.Supply chain resilience depends on ecosystem-wide visibility and control.LINKS:

Why does it feel like U.S. ports are stuck in the past while the rest of the world is fully automated?
This episode with Lauren Beagen—lawyer, founder of The Maritime Professor®, and host of By Land and By Sea—dives into why maritime regulations matter, what tech labor negotiations are really about, and how tariffs are a lot more about vibes than rules.
From dock safety to global competitiveness, we explore the big-picture forces shaping the future of port operations and maritime shipping.
Key takeaways:
• 93% of ports globally are not fully automated, despite the narrative.
• The FMC’s role is flag-neutral but laser-focused on protecting U.S. importers and exporters.
• Tariffs are less about policy and more about political posturing.
• Diversifying ports of entry is critical—but not always feasible due to specialized infrastructure needs.
• Labor/tech tensions stem from generational divides, safety, and global competitiveness.LINKS:

If you've ever asked “Where’s my container?”—this episode is for you.
Rene Alvarenga, Senior Director of Product Management at Kaleris, breaks down why visibility is still one of supply chain's biggest unsolved problems.
Backed by data from a new report with maritime research firm Thetius, this conversation unpacks the massive disconnect between what terminals think they’re delivering and what shippers actually experience.
Key takeaways:
• 87% of terminals think they offer great visibility—but only 25% of shippers agree.
• In some regions, vessel ETAs change up to 15 times, causing mass disruption.
• Most companies only use about 30% of their logistics tech capabilities.
• Solving for visibility starts by improving your execution—not adding new tools.

Cargo thieves aren’t just stealing freight—they’re outpacing traditional security methods with fraudulent carriers, fake BOLs, and even high-speed heists.
Cargo theft has surged 50% year-over-year, leaving shippers and brokers scrambling for protection. But while criminals are getting smarter, so is technology.
On this episode of Everything is Logistics, Jonathan Ryan, CPTO of Overhaul, reveals how AI and machine learning are helping companies prevent theft before it happens.
Key Takeaways:
Cargo theft is up 50% from 2023 to 2024, with electronics, pharmaceuticals, and food as the biggest targets. Thieves are forging BOLs mid-transit using mobile printers, allowing them to walk away with shipments undetected. The Romanian Roll, a high-speed theft method, is now happening in the U.S., putting drivers at greater risk. Overhaul’s Fraud Watch AI analyzes historical theft data, FMCSA records, and live tracking data to detect risky carriers and suspicious shipments. Overhaul’s law enforcement network has achieved a 96% recovery rate, with boots on the ground in as little as 10-20 minutes after an incident.Listen now to learn how AI-driven fraud detection, real-time load monitoring, and industry intelligence are changing the game for supply chain security.

Warehouse robotics is evolving fast, yet 90% of warehouses still don’t use automation. Why?
Despite the rise of AI, autonomous mobile robots (AMRs), and drone-based inventory tracking, most operations remain stuck in outdated, manual processes. The real challenge isn’t just cost—it’s about knowledge gaps, change management, and finding the right tech fit.
In this episode of Everything is Logistics, host Blythe Brumleve sits down with Kevin Lawton, host of The New Warehouse Podcast, to break down the biggest barriers preventing robotics adoption in warehousing. From entry-level automation solutions to practical strategies for integrating AI-driven robotics, we explore what’s next for warehouses that want to scale.
Key Topics Covered:
The real reasons why 90% of warehouses haven’t adopted robotics. Entry-level automation solutions that are accessible right now. How poor warehouse processes can sabotage automation efforts. Robots as co-workers: addressing change management challenges. Hummingbird Systems’ drone picking technology—is this the future?"If you automate a bad process, you're just making that bad process happen faster." – Kevin Lawton

In this episode, we focus on South American logistics, sharing crazy stories from the "Road of Death" where truck drivers dodge landslides, cross rivers on rickety pontoon boats, and take showers in mountain waterfalls just to deliver their cargo.
Blythe and Grace Sharkey unpack China's ambitious power play in South America, revealing how their new mega-port in Peru and planned infrastructure projects could reshape global trade routes and potentially sideline the Panama Canal.
They also bring attention to the fascinating twist that many of these modern shipping nightmares stem from trying to adapt 15th-century Incan roads - some of history's most impressive engineering feats - into today's crucial trade routes.
