In this episode of Logistics Unplugged, host Brian Blalock is joined by Jason Lockard, SVP of Managed Logistics, for a deep dive into the Q3 2025 BlueGrace Logistics Confidence Index®.
They explore the latest shifts in shipper sentiment, revenue forecasts, and inventory trends—especially in the wake of new tariff developments. From unexpected optimism to the growing focus on nearshoring, Brian and Jason break down what the data says and what it means for the months ahead.
As the conversation winds down, Jason talks offshore fishing, his go-to playlist on the water, and how he grills up the perfect wahoo. He also highlights the upcoming Crosthwait Memorial Fishing Tournament, a long-running charity event supporting local causes.
