Description

On Episode 730 of WHAT THE TRUCK?!?, Dooner is talking to trucker and social media influencer Trucking With Tay about fatherhood on the road. We’ll get into the challenges and wins of parenting while over the road. We may also learn the keys to perfectly strapping a load.

Cargo theft is a near-billion-dollar problem. Gego’s Joseph Daniel talks about how shippers are using tech to fight back and protect their freight. We’ll also find out about some of the most unusual loads Daniel has tracked.

Nearshoring was already on fire, and now with a potential renewed trade war on the horizon the topic has never been hotter. FabCast Solutions’ Jonathan Egan specializes in moving supply chains from the Far East to North America. We’ll find out the latest on nearshoring, and we’ll also learn how Egan used his supply chain know-how to resurrect Egan’s Whiskey.

Squats Across America has taken over the supply chain. We’ve already had air squats completed in 45 out of 50 states. The crew from Repowr stops by to do some live air squats as they help us inspire a summer of health in the industry.

Plus, an amazing Peterbilt cooler; hurricane season eyes landfall; Chick-fil-A joins the robot wars; and more.
