Description

On today's episode of WHAT THE TRUCK?!?, we're diving into the biggest headlines in freight. We'll break down the "Shifting Gears" committee meeting where the ATA, OOIDA, and Teamsters clashed on the future of trucking, including the ATA's controversial push for more teen truckers. We'll also cover the commuter chaos in Cincinnati caused by an oversized load that missed its exit.

We've got a great lineup of guests:

  • Adam DeGroot, CEO of DeGroot Logistics and Dock411, is here to talk about the logistics behind supplying Chipotle and what's new with Dock411 and FreightSOS.

  • Garrett Allen, founder of SearchCarries.com and LoadPartners, joins us to discuss the world of carrier vetting and the power of social media in the freight tech space.

  • Chace Barber, founder and CEO of Edison Motors, gives us an update on their explosive growth, the challenges of building in Canada, and their brand new test track.

Plus, we'll talk about a rough week for Gen X icons and much more!
