Lip nicotine supply chains; NASCAR hauling; hydrogen-powered garbage trucks | WHAT THE TRUCK?!?

On Episode 723 of WHAT THE TRUCK?!?, Dooner is talking about the great Zyn shortage of 2024. One company’s supply chain crisis is another’s competitive advantage. Today, we’ll meet Lucy co-founder John Coogan, whose lip nicotine brand Lucy is making waves. We’ll find out how these products work, learn about their supply chains and find out why their popularity is surging.

Got a need for speed? So do NASCAR drivers, but they’re not going around the track without their race cars. How do they get there? We’ll find out from NASCAR hauler Joe Anderson, who takes us into one of the most specialized worlds in trucking.

Dump trucks are going green. Hyzon and New Way Trucks have partnered on a hydrogen refuse truck, and we’ll learn all about what that deal means from Hyzon CEO Parker Meeks.

Plus, pets on the road; sus sleepers; mail delivery gone wrong; and more.
