Show Notes

Say hey! It’s episode 24 of the Far Middle and Nick leads off by tipping his cap to the epic Willie Mays. In this edition, Nick reflects on a recent trip to Los Angeles and several subsequent observations. “On one hand you’ve got the potential that remains exponential when it comes to California…and you also see the risks, the problems and the wall of worry that is accumulating steadily,” explains Nick. Nick goes on to discuss the bottleneck at the Port of Long Beach and broader supply chain issues, misguided government policies, LA’s homelessness epidemic, and more. Look for next week’s episode when Nick offers a few more observations on LA and California.
