In this episode of Transit Unplugged, host Paul Comfort explores a question many transit agencies are asking today: Do operators make the best transit leaders?Paul's guest, Michael Dylan Pal, Director of Public Transit for the Niagara Frontier Transportation Authority (NFTA) in Buffalo, has lived that journey firsthand.Pal began his career behind the wheel as a bus operator for New York City Transit, eventually rising through the ranks of the MTA, serving in senior leadership roles across multiple agencies, and later helping lead operations at Valley Metro in Phoenix before returning to New York to oversee transit in the Buffalo–Niagara region.In this conversation, Pal reflects on how starting on the front lines shaped his leadership philosophy—and why understanding the daily realities of operators can make a real difference when managing a complex transit system.Today, Pal leads the NFTA Metro system, which provides bus, light rail, and paratransit service to the Buffalo–Niagara region—supporting more than a million residents and carrying roughly 50,000–60,000 riders on a typical weekday. Paul and Michael discuss:How Pal's career started as a bus operator in Brooklyn What transit leaders can learn from working on the front lines The transition from Phoenix's desert system to Buffalo's winter operations Major projects underway in Buffalo, including the DL&W Station redevelopment Plans for the Amherst rail extension The upcoming Bailey Bus Rapid Transit corridor Fleet modernization, electric buses, and future propulsion strategies Pal also shares how Buffalo is experiencing a new wave of investment and growth, and how transit is playing a key role in connecting people to jobs, education, and opportunity across Western New York.For Pal, the lesson is simple: the best transit leaders never forget what it's like to serve riders and support operators every day.Host: Paul ComfortExecutive Producer: Julie GatesProducer: Chris O'KeeffeEditor: Patrick EmileAssociate Producer: Cyndi RaskinTransit Unplugged is brought to you by Modaxo, passionate about moving the world's people.Disclaimer: The views and opinions expressed in this program are those of the guests, and do not necessarily reflect the views or positions of Modaxo Inc., its affiliates or subsidiaries, or any entities they represent (“Modaxo”).

8. Joseph Ellis, *The Cause: The American Revolution and Its Discontents, 1773 to 1783*. The victory at Yorktown was secured through Clinton's poor orders and the providential arrival of the French fleet. Diplomat John Jaythen achieved a stunning victory by breaking his orders to negotiate a treaty that secured the Mississippi River as the western border. Robert Morrispersonally funded the army's final movements, writing 10,000 checks to prevent total financial ruin. Ultimately, the war ended with a confederation of sovereign states rather than a unified nation, leaving the tragic legacies of slavery and indigenous displacement unresolved by the new political structure.

He shares raw lessons on leadership, hiring the right people, backing yourself, and why passion beats formal education every day of the week.The conversation then rolls into wild international yarns - from countless trips to Las Vegas, shooting machine guns from helicopters, and driving stretch Hummers across the desert, to meeting legends like Neil Armstrong, hanging backstage with ZZ Top, and crossing paths with Lionel Richie.Craig also shares his love for American road trips - from Nashville and Broadway, to the SEMA Show, the Mid-America Truck Show, and old-school towns like Lynchburg, home of Jack Daniel's.

Thatcher's Falklands Fleet to Starmer's Britain — Watching HMS Dragon Sail  #JonGaunt #JonGauntTV #UKPolitics #HMSDragon #RoyalNavy #FalklandsWar #MargaretThatcher #KeirStarmer THATCHER OR STARMER?  Today the Royal Navy destroyer HMS Dragon sails for Cyprus. A modern British warship heading out on deployment. But watching that departure raises a bigger question about the country she represents. In 1982 Britain watched an entire fleet sail south during the Falklands War. The nation was facing strikes, riots and economic hardship, yet there was still a sense of determination and purpose. At the centre of that moment stood Margaret Thatcher in Downing Street and Ronald Reagan in the White House. Their close political partnership became one of the clearest examples of the UK-US "special relationship" — a relationship that mattered during the Falklands crisis.  Fast forward to today. HMS Dragon sails in a very different political climate. Keir Starmer is now Prime Minister and Donald Trump is back in the White House. Yet instead of the kind of unity seen between Thatcher and Reagan, tensions have already appeared, with Starmer refusing to help Trump on key issues. So what does that say about Britain today? Jon Gaunt looks at the contrast between two eras — from Thatcher's Falklands fleet to Starmer's Britain — and asks whether the country has lost the confidence, leadership and clarity it once had.  Join the live debate on JonGauntTV.

99% of registered fleets belong to small and mid-size businesses — but the EV industry wasn't built for them. High upfront costs, years-long waits for grid access, and charging solutions designed for large operators have left the backbone of the American economy behind.This week on Everybody in the Pool, we meet a founder who's changing that. Galina Russell, co-founder of Mitra EV, built a turnkey solution that bundles electric trucks and vans with charging infrastructure, so plumbers, electricians, and delivery companies can electrify their fleets without the logistical headache.We talk about:Why small commercial fleets are the most overlooked (and impactful) EV opportunityThe barriers to EV adoption for small and mid-size business ownersMitra's "laptop and charger" model: leasing vehicles and installing charging together, from day oneHow Mitra works within existing grid capacity instead of waiting years for new powerBattery storage, peak shaving, and the vision for 50 megawatts of distributed backup powerWhy cost savings — not climate ideology — is the killer pitch to small business ownersLinks:Mitra EV: https://www.mitra-ev.com/Galina's book recommendation, The Grid by Gretchen Bakke: https://www.bloomsbury.com/us/grid-9781632865687/All episodes: https://www.everybodyinthepool.com/Subscribe to the Everybody in the Pool newsletter: https://www.mollywood.co/Become a member for the ad-free version of the show: https://everybodyinthepool.supercast.com/ Hosted on Acast.

What if the best opportunities in trucking don't require a traditional college degree? And what if the growing shortage of diesel mechanics is one of the biggest career openings in the transportation industry today? Today, we have Caleb Johnson from Coltrain Onsite Fleet Care to discuss how military veterans are transitioning into trucking, logistics, and diesel technician careers, bringing valuable hands-on experience that the industry needs! We also break down the skilled labor shortage in diesel mechanics and why it's creating major opportunities for new workers seeking stable, high-demand careers.  Caleb shares how mobile fleet maintenance and on-site truck repair are transforming the industry by reducing downtime and improving efficiency, with Coltrain achieving a 95% on-site repair success rate through skilled technicians and preventative maintenance strategies!   About Caleb Johnson Caleb Johnson didn't find his way into the trucking industry. He was born into it. Growing up, while his mother built her career in the industry, Caleb spent his earliest years with his mom in the shop coloring books and catching rides on tractors around the yard. The industry felt like a second family before he ever started turning wrenches. A U.S. Army veteran, Caleb launched his career in transportation through his military service, where he went on to serve as an instructor in an Observer Coach/Trainer (OCT) unit, training and validating Army teams and their vehicles before overseas deployment, ensuring they were mission-capable no matter the mission set. That background in preparation, accountability, and getting people ready to perform under pressure shapes how he leads to this day. With over 12 years of experience in fleet maintenance and mobile repair, Caleb has worked every level of this industry, from Lead Technician at Penske Truck Leasing to Mobile Technician Manager for the Gulf South Region at Dickinson Fleet Services/Cox Automotive, to General Manager roles at Fleet Mobile Maintenance and now Coltrain Onsite Fleet Care, where he leads the Central Gulf Region. In an industry that runs on trust, Caleb is the kind of operator people want in their corner, genuine, relational, and deeply invested in the people around him. At Coltrain Onsite Fleet Care, he's found a home that shares that same conviction, putting people first and delivering on the promise to defend the road with reliable maintenance and repair that keeps fleets moving safely and efficiently to their destinations.  

In this forward-looking episode of The Fleet Success Show, hosts Josh Turley and Marc Canton break down the top fleet trends and predictions for 2026. The duo tackles the ongoing hype around AI and how it mirrors past tech bubbles like dot-com and EV infrastructure. They dive into what AI adoption means for fleet managers and why the real value lies in smart vetting and operational integration, not flashy buzzwords. They also explore the persistent technician shortage, how public sector HR policies are getting in the way of competitive hiring, and why Gen Z might hold the key to solving the labor gap (but only if compensation adjusts accordingly). Finally, they forecast a hopeful stabilization in supply chains and a shift in fleet leadership, from wrench-turners to data-driven decision-makers. Fleet leaders, if you're looking to make smarter decisions and avoid falling into hype traps in 2026, this episode is your playbook. Key Takeaways AI isn't going away, but the hype is. Fleet software vendors must be vetted for real AI integration vs. gimmicks. The technician shortage continues. Gen Z may help, but compensation is still a major barrier. Fleet leadership is evolving. The fleet manager of 2026 is a data-savvy business operator, not just a mechanic. Supply chain stability is (hopefully) on the horizon. Positive vibes predict no major disruptions in 2026. AI adoption must be paired with clear ROI. Don't chase tools. Solve problems and focus on productivity, not novelty. Host Bios Josh Turley CEO of RTA: The Fleet Success Company, Josh is a passionate advocate for operational excellence in fleet management. With decades of experience and a deep understanding of fleet software systems, Josh brings strategic clarity to the most pressing challenges in the industry. Marc Canton As RTA's VP of Product and a leading voice on the Fleet Success Show, Marc blends industry insight with sharp commentary. He's known for cutting through the noise and focusing on what truly matters to fleet managers trying to navigate evolving tech, labor, and leadership dynamics.   Looking to take the next step to fleet success?

In this episode of Loaded and Rolling, host Thomas Wasson sits down with David Blackwell and Akshaya Kumar from EROAD to discuss the evolution of the “Truck Whisperer”—the art of transforming overwhelming fleet data into meaningful business outcomes. As modern commercial vehicles generate upwards of 50,000 data points per day, many fleet managers find themselves suffering from “alert fatigue” rather than gaining operational control. David and Akshaya break down how to cut through this digital noise to find the “juicy nuggets” of actionable signal.

For several years, Iran, Venezuela, and Russia have relied on a sprawling network of aging tankers—known as the shadow fleet—to keep their oil flowing despite Western sanctions. Now, the EU is proposing its most aggressive move yet: a sweeping ban on maritime services that could cut off insurance, brokerage, and port access for vessels carrying Russian crude. This comes at a time when the Venezuelan shadow fleet has largely been replaced by mainstream tanker operators, while the US continues to impose new restrictions on Iranian vessels. Both developments raise fresh questions about the future of these rogue tankers. In this episode of Energy Evolution, host Eklavya Gupte explores whether the shadow fleet can survive tighter sanctions and what the consequences might be for global energy security, trade flows, and environmental safety. Joining the conversation are Kelly Norways and Max Lin, two journalists from Platts, part of S&P Global Energy, who have been tracking the shadow fleet's evolution over the past few years. They break down the mechanics of this shipping network, explain how the EU's proposed ban differs from the price cap system, and reveal the growing risks posed by a fleet of vessels operating outside international safety standards.

//The Wire//1800Z March 2, 2026// //ROUTINE// //BLUF: TERROR ATTACK STRIKES TEXAS. GULF WAR CONTINUES IN MIDDLE EAST AS IRANIAN FORCES STRIKE AMERICAN BASES AND OIL FIELDS. MULTIPLE AMERICAN AIRCRAFT SHOT DOWN IN FRIENDLY FIRE INCIDENTS. QATAR SHOOTS DOWN TWO IRANIAN FIGHTERS OVER PERSIAN GULF.// -----BEGIN TEARLINE-----  -International Events-Middle East: The Gulf War continues to expand, with nearly every nation throughout the region being involved as airstrikes and drone/missile attacks remain regular around the clock.Kuwait: This morning, three separate American F-15E's were shot down due to alleged friendly fire incidents after allegedly being engaged by Kuwaiti air defense systems. All six pilots and weapons officers ejected and were rescued from the desert by Kuwaiti forces.Analyst Comment: This situation was rather dicey as local Kuwaitis on the ground initially thought that the Americans parachuting down were Iranians. This is possibly due to the American parachutes from the ACES II ejection seats being in the standard colors of Orange, White, and Green (which has been a standard for a long time). Unfortunately, this also looks very similar to the colors of the Iranian flag as it's descending on a residential neighborhood. As a result, several Kuwaitis responded to the crash site with weapons drawn, until it became clear that they were Americans. After the Americans were identified, they were protected and rendered aid until they were recovered safely back to American lines.Saudi Arabia: Most of the targeting efforts by the Iranians have focused on hitting oil infrastructure. This morning, the Ras Tanura refinery was been shut down completely following Iranian drone strikes, which halts roughly 16% of Saudi Arabia's total oil production capacity.Qatar: All Liquified Natural Gas (LNG) production has been halted due to Iranian strikes, and the airport in Doha remains closed at the moment. This morning Qatari forces downed two Iranian Su-24 fighters which were sortied to conduct targeting within their nation.Analyst Comment: If this report is accurate, this would be the first indication that the Iranians still maintain some limited air combat power, even though the runways at most of their airports have been cratered.UAE: In the Emirates, Iranian forces have been hitting Dubai and Abu Dhabi hard over the past two days. Power plants, oil terminals, and other energy infrastructure have been targeted, along with more military targets. The French Naval Base in Abu Dhabi was hit by Iranian munitions, and the fires have been burning overnight.Bahrain: The semi-former headquarters of the US Navy's 5th Fleet has been heavily damaged, with a significant portion of the base being completely destroyed. This morning, Iranian forces struck an American strategic oil tanker, the M/T STENA IMPERATIVE, as she was sitting in port.Cyprus: The British Airbase at Akrotiri Airport has been targeted by Iranian missiles/drones several times over the past two days, with heavy smoke being reported at the installation sporadically yesterday afternoon.Israel: Substantial targeting efforts continue by the Iranians, with many ballistic missile strikes being carried out overnight. Rocket attacks by Hezbollah cells in Lebanon continue, with the IDF conducting several airstrikes in downtown Beirut in response yesterday evening.Regarding civilian infrastructure in the Middle East, most major airports throughout the entire region are closed for flights, most notably Kuwait International, Dubai, Abu Dhabi, and Bahrain. Right now, the main logistical hub for citizens fleeing the region is Riyadh, however the Saudis stated overnight that King Khalid International Airport was targeted by Iran. The ballistic missiles were successfully intercepted, but the window for evacuations throughout much of the region is probably clo

Nate makes a special trip to Boston to sit down with Haley Winn of the U.S. Women's Hockey Team following her gold medal performance at the 2026 Olympic Winter Games in Italy. Haley grew up in Rochester and also has strong family ties to Bainbridge, where she has spent significant time over the years. That local connection makes this moment even more meaningful. She played a major role on the blue line for Team USA during the tournament, recording one goal, three assists, and a +11 rating. After a decorated Division-I career at Clarkson University, Haley was drafted second overall by the Boston Fleet in the 2025 Professional Women's Hockey League Draft. This special presentation is broken into three parts: Nate's introduction, a press conference with Haley and the media, and an exclusive one-on-one sit-down with Nate. Thank you to the Fleet for hosting this event at the Boston Sports Institute. Thanks to Haley's family for their support and assistance. Mixing by Robert Child.

//The Wire//1300Z February 28, 2026// //PRIORITY// //BLUF: WAR BEGINS WITH IRAN.// -----BEGIN TEARLINE-----  -International Events-Middle East: This morning the war began as American and Israeli forces conducted pre-emptive strikes throughout Iran. Major bombings have been reported throughout most major cities around the county, with the heaviest concentrations of bombings taking place in Tehran.In response, Iranian forces have conducted missile strikes targeting American bases in Jordan, Qatar, Kuwait, the UAE, and several other locations. Missile impacts have been observed at Ali Al Salem Airbase in Kuwait, Al Udeid Airbase in Qatar, Al Dhafra Airbase in the UAE, Muwaffaq Airbase in Jordan, and at the headquarters of 5th Fleet in Manama, Bahrain. Missile impacts were also reported in Israel, mostly in the port city of Haifa at the moment.In Iraq, the Kataib Hezbollah al-Nujaba group announced that they will begin insurgent attacks on American forces throughout the region, to include the targeting of American civilians working at American-run oil facilities throughout Iraq.-----END TEARLINE-----Analyst Comments: President Trump posted an 8-minute video to his Truth Social page, explaining the rationale for the war. In the video, President Trump ordered all Iranian forces to lay down their arms and surrender, while urging all Iranian civilians to stay in their homes while the bombings are conducted. President Trump then urged civilians to rise up and overthrown their government. Beyond these basic details, not much else is known regarding the overall end-goal of this war, however bombings have continued constantly throughout the past few hours. President Trump is expected to conduct another address to the nation later this morning.Analyst: S2A1 Research: https://publish.obsidian.md/s2underground Disclaimer: No LLMs were used in the writing of this report. //END REPORT//

In this powerful episode of The Fleet Success Show, Marc Canton sits down with Fleet Hall-of-Famer Steve Saltzgiver to tackle one of the most overlooked but critical areas in fleet: replacement planning. Steve shares jaw-dropping stories from his time leading Fortune 500 and government fleets, including how one change could have saved a company $800M. This episode explores why strategic fleet replacement is a fleet-wide performance driver, not just a financial issue. You'll hear about the ripple effects on technician staffing, spare ratios, maintenance costs, safety, and more. Key Takeaways Replacement is the “granddaddy” of all fleet processes, directly impacting every other aspect of fleet success, including technician staffing, space planning, and asset availability. Data-driven replacement decisions can yield millions in savings, and Steve shares how one fleet could have saved over $800M by adjusting its spare ratio. Fleet behavior is shaped by capital decisions. When budgets (not data) drive decision-making, safety and performance suffer. Analytics aren't enough if leadership won't act. Even when the math is clear, cultural resistance and short-term thinking can block progress. Chargebacks and lifecycle modeling are foundational tools for justifying replacements and funding future ones. Speaker Bios Steve Saltzgiver A Fleet Hall-of-Famer and former executive with both government and private sector fleets, Steve has turned around some of the most complex fleet operations in the country. He now serves as a senior fleet consultant with RTA, helping clients tackle issues from asset planning to culture transformation. Marc Canton VP of Product and Consulting at RTA: The Fleet Success Company, Marc brings deep expertise in fleet operations, leadership, and performance coaching.

After 10 years in business, Brock returns to share the real journey — from a young trucking entrepreneur chasing growth… to a seasoned veteran who's weathered one of the toughest markets in trucking history. He opens up about losing a major portion of his business when the market collapsed — and how he stayed in the fight when most folded. This isn't a highlight reel. It's survival. It's resilience. It's what 10 years in trucking really looks like. If you're in this industry, this conversation will hit home. Special thanks to our guest: Brock Phillips https://www.instagram.com/bphilllips

We'd be very happy if you support us!  https://www.storynory.com/support-us/ The Fox Princess Hello, this is Jana, and I'm here with one of our Small Stories.  It's about a fox who can change shape.  And although it's very much set in London, stories of shape-shifting foxes originally come from Korea and the Far East    A fox went to watch the Changing of the Guard. She poked her nose through the railings of the palace. A boy pointed and called out, "Fox!" The fox did not want a guard to spot her. So she turned into a princess.   The guard opened the gate and bowed. Inside the palace, the red-headed princess gazed around. Everything was shiny and grand. Then she smelt something nice. She followed her nose to the kitchen.   The cook looked up. "What would you like, Your Highness?" he asked. She replied, "Chicken wings… And a saucer of warm milk."   She went upstairs to a bedroom. A footman brought a plate of chicken wings and a saucer of warm milk. She ate every last bite and lapped up the milk. After that, she went downstairs again. A young princeling smiled at her. "Let's play hide and seek," he said.   She closed her eyes and counted to twenty. She opened them.  She sniffed. And she found him hiding under the grand piano. They went out into the garden. The princeling closed his eyes and counted to 20. The princess turned back into a fox and hid under the shed.   The princeling searched. He looked behind the trees and inside the summer house. But he could not find her.   Then the King's dogs came into the garden. The fox felt scared. She ran. Across the grass, through the palace, and out of the front gates. A guard shouted, "Fox!" But she was gone. Back to the park.   And that was the Small Story of the Fox Princess, written by Bertie, and read by me, Jana.  And please don't forget, if you support us financially, via PaPal, Patreon or any other way, you can ask us for a first name shout out. And you can take part in our monthly writing competitions.  See Storynory for details.    For now, from me, Jana, goodbye. Song The Fox Princess Count to twenty. Don't look around. Listen out -  for the slightest  sound. Feel a  shimmer, or a spark — A rusty streak, through the dark . Shape shifts, flame flicks,  Moonlight shines, on your skin  Is this a game  Or the world we are living in   You're so magical… Wild at heart. Princess of nowhere — Master of art.   You're so magical… Seen, then gone. Only a pawmark Lingering on. You're so magical… Changing your face. Fairytale figure, Leaving no trace. You're so magical… Fleet and free. Princess of maybe — Who could you be?
