WHAT THE TRUCK?!? episode 500!

On this episode of WHAT THE TRUCK?!? Dooner and The Dude are celebrating the 500th episode of the biggest show in freight. 

They’re joined by the FreightWavesTV team to talk about building the brand and turning freight news into the sights and sounds that inform a global community. 

What impact has TV and podcasting had on freight media? FreightWaves Editorial Director Rachel Premack has the scoop. Also, is AB5 going nationwide? We’ll learn about President Joe Biden’s rumblings about reclassification. 

Michael Nelms and LaTasha Bradley of Keep Trucking Transportation pride themselves in finding a solution before a problem exists. We’ll find out how they’re teaching owner-operators how to run successful fleets. 

Back The Truck Up’s Rooster and SuperTrucker talk about abusive trainers; getting abandoned at a truck stop; distracted driving with scissors; and life in the semi.

Thank you for coming on this journey with us.
