The Voice Of GO(r)D podcast is delighted to finally bring you a discussion with Mr Cole Stevens of Stevens Trucking out of El Reno, Oklahoma. The son of a trucking family, Cole, like myself, is looking around at the state of the industry today and has decided to take action, which now includes running for a seat in the Oklahoma State House.A member of American Truckers United, Cole has been putting in some very hard yards in advocating for reforms to CDL issue and for putting an end to the insourced labor scams that have made our interstates so much more dangerous in recent years. Between many trips to DC in helping organize Dalilah's Law, and working locally in Oklahoma with his own state government to pass SB20, Cole has been relentless in his pursuit of a safe and profitable future for the American trucking industry and its drivers, and shares with my listeners and I some details of the latest battle.Cole and I recorded this back in March in anticipation of my recent appearance on Tucker Carlson, where I gave Tucker the breaking news about a lawsuit Stevens Trucking, along with another company in Oklahoma, have launched against some of the same bad actors at play in the recent Montgomery v Caribe SCOTUS decision.Now that Tucker has finally released that episode, I can let rip with this one.Cole breaks down some of this lawsuit for us, the claims seeking redress, and what has caused such a great rift in the industry between brokerages and asset based carriers aka actual trucking companies with actual trucks.You can find my most recent appearance with Tucker here - https://tuckercarlson.com/tucker-show-gord-magil-060126You can follow Cole on Twitter - https://x.com/StevensOK26over on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/cole-stevens-3345329a/and on Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/cole.stevens.73594Cole's Oklahoma campaign FB page - https://www.facebook.com/STEVENSOKHD51Thanks for listening, and as always, any questions, comments, suggestions, corrections or Hate Mail can be directed to me here - gordilocks@protonmail.com
You’re listening to American Ground Radio with Louis R. Avallone and Stephen Parr. This is the full show for June 1, 2026. We open with a question that sounds simple but goes deeper than you'd expect — why do we accept visible decline? In our public spaces, in our monuments, in our cities. We connect the psychology of personal presentation to the way communities signal what they expect of themselves, explain why Washington D.C. went decades without anyone in power noticing a fountain outside Union Station hadn't worked in 17 years, and give credit where it's due — Interior Secretary Doug Burgum, who says squalor is not a destiny, it is a choice — for the restoration happening across the nation's capital right now. Even in a city where 98% voted for Kamala Harris, people are noticing the fountains are running again. In our Top 3, New Jersey police finally broke up the well-organized, well-funded riots outside the ICE detention center in Newark after Governor Mickey Sherrill instituted a curfew — and once order was restored, ICE was able to resume visitation rights at the facility. Then the frontrunner for the Democrat Senate nomination in Maine is now facing allegations of sending sexually explicit messages to multiple women on a platform known as a predator's paradise — on top of the previously reported SS tattoo — and is still leading in the polls. And the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that Texas can enforce its state-level law making illegal entry into Texas a state crime — a significant win for state sovereignty and border security. We revisit the CDL license story — a naturalized Chinese citizen in New York who could not speak or read English was given a commercial driver's license and subsequently killed five people, four of them from the same immigrant family. We ask the hard question — when you relax your standards past the point of logic, people die. And the state of New York failed those people by treating a CDL as a checkbox rather than a safety standard. Our American Mamas Teri Netterville and Kimberly Burleson tackle the great group chat divide — who leaves, who stays, who creates the devastating side chat that accidentally gets sent back to the main group, and why the proper etiquette for exiting a group chat is to announce your departure before the precious baby photo drops and not the second after. We also get into the workplace group chat that becomes a clique engine, and why men with fat thumbs just don't participate. We dig deep into a CBRE study on corporate headquarter relocations covering 2018 through 2024 — and the results could not be clearer. In 2024 alone, California lost 17 corporate headquarters, 12 of them to Texas. Texas gained nearly 50% of all interstate relocations. The number one reason companies gave — by a margin that made every other reason almost irrelevant — was business climate, meaning lower taxes, fewer regulations, and local governments that actually want you there. We connect it to the same reason individuals move from blue states to red states and tie it back to the core argument of our book Bright Spots, Big Country — economic freedom is the engine of everything. We also dig into the Iran situation — where President Trump is continuing negotiations while maintaining military and economic pressure through the Strait of Hormuz blockade. We share our theory that the timeline for final resolution may be connected to the midterm elections, why the next military step would create a humanitarian crisis Trump is trying to avoid, and why the Democrats calling it a quagmire have it exactly backwards. We also cover the Pennsylvania woman now on the FBI's Most Wanted list for faking a terminal cancer diagnosis to swindle friends and family out of $11,000 — and use it as an illustration of what a law and order administration looks like when it sets a tone that no fraud is too small to chase. For our Bright Spot, Target is testing a new employee evaluation system that measures customer interaction — eye contact, greetings, offering assistance, projecting the energy of someone who is actually glad you're there. We call it common sense disguised as innovation and point out the oldest truth in business — what gets measured gets done. We also check in on the Los Angeles mayor's race, where Spencer Pratt is not just competitive against incumbent Karen Bass — he's running what may be the most effective political advertising campaign we've seen, built entirely on common sense ideas and the willingness to acknowledge visible reality. We make the case that in 2026, voters don't care about your resume anymore. They care whether you're willing to tell the truth about what's in front of them. And we close with Ethan Hayes, playing guitar in his backyard, and eight-year-old neighbor Madeline Glenn, who wrote a song request on a piece of paper, folded it into a paper airplane, and tossed it over the fence. Ethan played Love Story. The video went viral. Taylor Swift found out, and sent handwritten letters and signed guitars to both of them. May your pursuit of happiness bring you joy.

Lee Houston and David Burton open the discussion by noting that the WWE roster is currently on tour in Italy, shifting the usual timing of the broadcast.The main topic of the conversation centers on a recent major Lucha Libre AAA event that featured a high-stakes "Mask vs. Mask" match. The hosts discuss the logistics of finding the broadcast on YouTube, guiding listeners on how to differentiate between the live Spanish version and the taped English version. They then break down the climax of the match, where the loser was forced to unmask and was revealed to be Chad Gable.David highlights the bout as a strong contender for "Match of the Year," while Lee notes the narrative similarities to classic wrestling storylines. This prompts a nostalgic breakdown of the famous 2003 WWE storyline where Hulk Hogan performed under a mask as "Mr. America" despite everyone knowing his true identity, leading to Vince McMahon's ultimate quest to expose and fire him.(Part 2 following soon)brought to you by Backup Deliveries and More, LLC.

In this episode, we kick things off by examining a sweeping piece of legislation that just cleared its first major hurdle on Capitol Hill. The House Transportation and Infrastructure committee has overwhelmingly approved the BUILD America 250 Act by a decisive sixty-two to two vote, drawing rare bipartisan praise from both OOIDA and the American Trucking Associations. Two provisions in the sprawling, thousand-plus-page bill are generating particular attention from truckers: mandatory bathroom access at facilities where drivers are delivering or loading cargo, and expanded funding for commercial vehicle parking under an improved version of Jason's Law, which is named after a driver murdered in 2009 while parked at an abandoned gas station. Next, we head north to examine a damning government audit that's exposing widespread failures in commercial driver training oversight. Ontario Auditor General Shelley Spence's office sent undercover secret shoppers to six truck driving schools, uncovering shocking compliance gaps where two private career colleges provided only fifty-nine and eighty-one hours of training, well below the province's mandatory minimum of one hundred three point five hours. The audit also revealed that Ontario's Ministry had never inspected fifty-four of the province's two hundred sixteen registered private career colleges offering Entry Level Training as of March 2025, despite industry groups warning officials as early as 2017 that stronger compliance measures were desperately needed. Finally, we cover a high-profile interstate legal battle over commercial driver licenses and immigration. On Tuesday, the Supreme Court rejected Florida's attempt to sue California and Washington over the issuance of CDLs to immigrants who are not legally authorized to be in the United States. The case stemmed from a deadly crash on Florida's Turnpike in August 2025 involving a truck driver from India who held a valid CDL issued by California, with Florida's Attorney General seeking an injunction barring the two states from issuing licenses to applicants who are not U.S. citizens or lawful permanent residents. The court's refusal to hear the case leaves existing CDL licensing rules in California and Washington intact.

Welcome to episode #274 of The COD Casuals, where we discuss all things Call of Duty, casual and professional!In this episode, we start off talking about an inevitable fact of friends dropping off of gaming, and what may be contributing to this. As most of our friends have stopped playing, we turn to the games we had growing up, and how the quality of those titles, such as Call of Duty, has changed so much over the years that it has turned people away from gaming altogether. We share our thoughts on story games, and their ability to tell a story you actually cared about and wanted to keep playing. This shifts our talk to the seasons in BO7, and how the story continues to be told, despite not having that initial interest from a lack of quality. Along with this, when it comes to quality and effort in COD, most turn to the maps being a main point of focus. We give our thoughts on how map design and quality has been trending over the years, as well as sharing the fact that despite good maps in the past, there are very few that live on over the years. Finally, we close with some CDL updates, and are looking forward to an exciting major 3 tournament. Do you share the experience of having a shrinking list of friends still playing regularly? What's the longest you've gone without gaming? Do you agree with our takes on storylines in gaming? Does COD need a full reset when it comes to their campaigns? Finally, do you remember a lot of maps from old COD titles, or is your memory as bad as ours? Please let us know as we discuss this and much more! Hope you all enjoy the episode and we'll see you next week.Join the Discord!https://discord.gg/XjBWUj4KtVFollow us:Twitter: @TheCODCasualsInstagram: @TheCODCasualsTikTok: @TheCODCasualsContact us:Business Inquiries: TheCODCasuals@gmail.com

Welcome to episode #273 of The COD Casuals, where we discuss all things Call of Duty, casual and professional!In this episode, we start off with the news that Modern Warfare 4 will not be released on last-gen consoles, making it the first COD in over a decade to move exclusively to the current generation of consoles. We share our thoughts on the move, those who still main on the old consoles, and what the future looks like for console gaming vs. PC gaming, as both are becoming more and more expensive. We then shift to the current state of BO7, and discuss how COD has changed over the years to where we currently are, and what this says for Modern Warfare 4. The focus has shifted over the years to variety and quantity for all players, and moved away from good fundamentals in their titles. We give our opinions on the fundamentals IW needs to focus on to gain traction for their title. Finally, we give an overview on the CDL weekend, as serious concerns are still there for some of the bottom teams, and the battle for the top has gotten even closer as we are closing in on major 3. What do you think about the move away from old gen support regarding COD? When did you make the switch to the next gen, or do you still play your old console? What are your thoughts on our talk regarding settings in COD? Do you think there are too many, or do you enjoy the customization? Finally, what are your main points for IW to focus on for MW4? Please let us know as we discuss this and much more!

In this episode of Freight Expectations, Craig and Matt debate who belongs to the most hated profession in America: lawyers, journalists, or academics. As a media CEO, Craig takes some heat, but Matt somehow represents all three. Beyond the self-deprecation, they unpack a baffling $81 million nuclear verdict where the jury completely cleared the truck driver of negligence but still hammered the motor carrier. Matt explains the wild legal maneuvers behind the scenes and how these massive rulings are driving double-digit insurance hikes across the industry. They also tackle the USPS's operational panic as the ban on non-domiciled CDL drivers takes effect, and how AI might actually fuel an increase in trucking lawsuits by making legal research cheaper for plaintiff attorneys.Finally, Craig delivers a deep dive into how logistics win wars.

Board-Certified Truck Accident Attorney David Craig breaks down Indiana's radical new trucking law where 1,800 commercial drivers just lost their licenses overnight.In this episode of Ask David, David discusses the sweeping changes under Indiana House Enrolled Act 1200, which took effect April 1st. The law emerged after four horrific crashes involving non-domiciled drivers. David explains how the trucking industry's claim of a "driver shortage" led to a massive increase from 316,000 to 720,000 non-domiciled drivers between 2000 and 2021.✔️ What non-domiciled drivers are ✔️ How visa requirements changed for H-2A, H-1B, and E-2 classifications✔️ English proficiency crackdowns✔️ Indiana's ban on foreign language CDL testing✔️ Federal CDL school closures and quality control issues✔️ Criminal penalties: Level 6 felony charges for violationsDavid Craig is one of the few attorneys in the U.S. who is Board-Certified in Truck Accident Law by the National Board of Trial Advocacy and accredited by the American Bar Association. With 39+ years handling semi-truck wreck cases, he meets rigorous experience, ethics, and knowledge standards to hold trucking companies and unsafe drivers accountable.The four crashes that triggered this legislation represent real families who lost loved ones due to unqualified drivers on Indiana roads. The February Jay County crash alone claimed four lives when a non-domiciled driver with a bad record, working for a company with significant safety violations, caused a fatal wreck.
Welcome to episode #272 of The COD Casuals, where we discuss all things Call of Duty, casual and professional!In this episode, we have some major news regarding the future of COD, and the serious potential of a major loss in sales, as Xbox officially has announced that COD will not appear on game pass until a year after release, no longer being at launch. This comes off the back of a much needed price cut for game pass, but now the question is; will the Xbox Call of Duty playerbase take a serious hit because of this change? We give our opinions on the matter, and how this year's game is now even more important. Along with this, we cover the most recent minor tournament in the CDL this past weekend, and cover the top teams and what is next for those teams who continue to struggle. Finally, we wrap up with the recent interview with Daniel Tsay on The Flank. There are lots of questions to be answered regarding changes to the CDL format, and the overall future of the league, and we cover the most important points from this. What do you think about Xbox not having the newest COD on game pass? Will Xbox lose some of it's core playerbase because of this, or will the impact not be felt that heavily? What did you think of the most recent CDL matches? Are there matches simply not worth watching, and does this show how the CDL needs a format change?

The NBA Playoffs are delivering chaos, history, and heartbreak — and Big Shot Bob Robert Horry, host Rob Jenners, and B-Dog Brandon Harper are breaking it ALL down on Episode 257 of the Big Shot Bob Podcast! The Orlando Magic are one win away from completing one of the most stunning upsets in NBA postseason history — knocking off the #1 seed Detroit Pistons as an 8-seed. What's gone wrong for Cade Cunningham and the Pistons, and can they save their season on home floor? Robert Horry knows something about coming back from 3-1 deficits — he lived it with the 1995 Houston Rockets. The OKC Thunder close out the Phoenix Suns in a clean sweep, looking like the most complete team in the West. With SGA dropping 31 in the clincher and a bench that could start anywhere in the league, is anyone actually beating these guys? Then it's the Denver Nuggets fighting to stay alive against Minnesota — Joker posts a 27/16/12, Aaron Gordon goes OFF for 43 off the bench in Game 4, but the Timberwolves are healthy and hungry. Can Denver find a way? The guys debate coaching, defense, and whether the NBA owes us a Wemby vs. Jokic matchup. In the East, the New York Knicks celebrate a Game 4 win with some famous Magic City Wings — and Lou Will has thoughts. Will Jalen Johnson step up for Atlanta in a hostile MSG environment? Robert Horry shares his perspective on why playing on the road was actually easier for him. In Philly, Joel Embiid returns from appendix surgery and the Sixers still get blown out by 32. Is it finally time for the 76ers to move on? And the Toronto Raptors have breathed life into their series against Cleveland — is Rob Jenners' "shaky branch" take looking more solid? Plus — Victor Wembanyama goes down with a frightening fall in Game 2, misses Game 3, then comes back in Game 4 to put up a stat line only matched by Hakeem Olajuwon. His numbers?

Welcome to episode #271 of The COD Casuals, where we discuss all things Call of Duty, casual and professional!In this episode, we start off with the confirmation that we will be seeing a COD movie in the near future, and what this means for the series. Set to release in 2028, we give some thoughts and theories as to why they have decided to make COD into a movie, and what their hopes are with the outcome from it to support their game. We break down the potential ideas they could have with COD 2028, as well as if it will be successful or not. We then shift to some of the decline that's been seen in FPS games across the board, as hackers have now ruined Arc Raiders and ranked play for BO7. This will lead players onto new games, constantly chasing the next best game. We give our thoughts on this movement as a whole, and how we feel the game industry has led to games feeling “disposable” as years have gone on. We finally end with some CDL news updates and changes, as we head into the first minor tournament of Major 3, getting a first look at the top teams in the league. What do you think of the COD movie announcement? Are you excited for this, or more worried? What do you think Activision hopes to achieve with this movie, and do you think they'll be successful? Do you agree with our assessment of the gaming industry and there being too many games to choose from? Finally, what do you think of the competition in the CDL right now after Major 3? Do lots of teams need to make changes, or wait until after Major 3? Please let us know as we discuss this and much more! Hope you all enjoy the episode and we'll see you next week.Join the Discord!https://discord.gg/XjBWUj4KtVFollow us:Twitter: @TheCODCasualsInstagram: @TheCODCasualsTikTok: @TheCODCasualsContact us:Business Inquiries: TheCODCasuals@gmail.com

In this exclusive fireside chat, FreightWaves analyst Thomas Wasson sits down with OOIDA President Todd Spencer to confront the most pressing, and often controversial, legislative issues facing owner-operators today. Is the trucking industry truly suffering from a "driver shortage," or is the real crisis rooted in a broken training pipeline that prioritizes cheap labor over highway safety? Spencer sounds off on the controversial rise of "fly-by-night" CDL schools , the alarming safety impacts of selective English-language proficiency enforcement by authorities, and the urgent push for Delilah's Law to regulate non-domiciled drivers.

Iran can't beat America, so they are betting everything on America beating ourselves, through more division, and a liberal media. Speaking of the liberal media, CNN is in denial on gas taxes and the girls on The View stir up scare tactics by falsely saying the Trump administration is bringing back the draft. So, what happens when young social media conservatives do their own investigation on issues? In the state of California, they draw up a bill to stop them. Plus, Secretary Shawn Duffy breaks down which state is handing out CDL licenses like candy and it is just California, The Pope blinks and walks the tension back, Mamdani and Obama visited a childcare center, AZ Gov. Hobbs refuses to answer Gallego questions, Crockett, Lemon, Kamala, and so much more on your Conservative Circus show.
