The Price of Lunch: Bottlenecks and Better Backups

A few favourite foods cost a little more, and I find myself thinking about the long systems behind an ordinary lunch. I haven't traced the price rises in my shopping basket, but they open a question: what happens when one part of a system gets too narrow?
From maritime chokepoints to electric-car charging, green hydrogen in Andalucía, AI data centres and the journey of a tomato, this episode explores how fixing one bottleneck can reveal another. Building the pieces is one task; having them ready to work together is another.
Then there's the question of backups. Two suppliers may still depend on the same factory. Spare capacity can look expensive until we need it. Could AI help us notice these dependencies, compare alternatives and question assumptions—while people make the decisions?
An everyday look at bottlenecks, resilience and keeping another workable path available.
