2. What Is All The Panic (buying) About?

  • サマリー

  • After stores across the world first started running out of toilet paper, this quickly spread to empty shelves and epic queues as people rush to stock up before armageddon hits. This has resulted in a lot of further panic and strong emotions and angry words from those impacted. Still no one knows why toilet paper is needed....

    In this episode we dive into some of the reasons behind the buying. We discuss supply chain shifts, game theory, psychology, fear, and economics to discover how it works. Along the way we find reasons to be less judgemental and kinder to our fellow humans.

    Notes

    Non Supermarket Food Delivery
    I mention a list of places besides supermarkets that will do online delivery of useful goods. I'm putting it here for now but will update with a blog at some point.
    Delivery list
    If you have any suggestions let me know with dm or a comment (it would be nice to make an American equivalent)

    Meal Shakes

    HUEL
    I can highly reccomend HUEL as a great product that last a long time. I generally just use it to replace lunches but you can replace every meal if you feel like it for a bit.
    (I added my referral link because it gives you £10 off your first order. I don't really benefit as I've already given it to enough people and you can only use one £10 off per order I make your judgements. If you have a freind that uses Huel ask for their link instead)

    Soylent
    I think these are the big ones in America. Plenty others exits I'm sure. Instead of google try searching on Ecosia for a change.
