Sal Mercogliano is an assistant professor of history at Campbell University in North Carolina and the proprietor of a very interesting YouTube channel called "What's Going on with Shipping?" Sal's been on the show before and I wanted to have him back today because on Monday, Kurt Cambier said on the air that he's heard that the backups to unload ships and process shipping containers at major American ports have been substantially relieved. I think Sal may contradict that assertion but whatever the right answer is, I want to know. In fact, I've posted Sal's recent video on this very subject at the end of this blog note. Check it out.
