Every December, thousands of volunteers and hundreds of truck drivers move in unison for one mission: remember the fallen, honor those who serve, and teach the next generation the value of freedom. In this episode of The Long Haul, Adam sits down with Courtney George, Director of Transportation and Industry Relations for Wreaths Across America, to explore the heart of a program that relies on the trucking community to carry more than just freight — they carry legacy, gratitude, and remembrance. Courtney shares how Wreaths Across America mobilizes drivers, carriers, communities, and families across the country to ensure veterans are honored with dignity. We talk about the emotional impact on drivers, the logistics behind such a massive mission, and why goodwill still matters in a world that feels divided and distracted. This one's bigger than trucking — it's about purpose. Follow The Long Haul Podcast Other FreightWaves Shows Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
It's always a pleasure to talk to a dedicated bush trainer from any part of the nation. This week we go to the busy training hub at Dubbo and to one of its most respected participants. Dar (that's his official christian name) was one of a family of jockeys from the tiny village of Carinda in the Walgett Shire. He spent more than 35 years as a respected member of the western riding ranks before having to quit following a serious kick from a nervous young horse. Dar has been training for some 14 years from a Dubbo base and has no intention of trying any other job. Right off the top he appeases the curiosity about his first name. Dar talks about his infrequent trips to town and says it takes a pretty handy horse to warrant a crack at the city slickers. He made a rare appearance at Randwick on Saturday where his two runners were out of a place, Saint Philomena and Elson Boy who had a pretty tough run. Dar says he travelled the horses to Sydney the day before in heatwave conditions. He talks about a horse called Green Run who might earn a trip to the big smoke in the near future. The horse's regular rider is out of action following a freak mounting yard accident recently. Dar talks about his birthplace of Carinda which boasted a population of 200 during his childhood. The Dubbo based trainer reflects on the riding activities of four brothers. Dar looks back on school days in Carinda and a move to Walgett as he reached a higher grade.This was when his association with thoroughbreds began under the tutelage of a veteran trainer. He makes the frank confession that he wasn't licensed at the time of his first few race rides. He looks back on his first legitimate race ride and his first winner way out west at Bourke. Dar says he wasn't dedicated to looking after his weight early days, but mended his ways soon after. He talks of the shortage of race meetings in the west and the distances he had to travel to carve out a livelihood as a bush jockey. Dar says he rarely rode on metropolitan tracks, but recalls one exciting win at Eagle Farm in Brisbane. He says he could count his Sydney rides on one hand but reflects on a two year old race at Rosehill when he ran into a rising topliner. The 64 year old remembers his final winning ride on the spacious Warren track on a horse trained by brother Garry. Dar talks about the freakish accident that ended his riding career. The experienced horseman takes us through the Elson Boy story- the unraced horse identified on line by one of his most supportive owners. Dar admits he made a few mistakes before working the gelding out. He takes us through some exciting wins and one heartbreaking setback. Dar looks back on a horse he felt was going places before going amiss. He looks back on a great association with a western trainer who was destined to become his father-in-law. This was Dar's cue to acknowledge the unwavering support of Jill, his wife of 39 years. He and Jill are the proud parents of daughters Brianna and Layne. Brianna has in turn presented her parents with three grandchildren- all girls. Dar speaks candidly of the sudden stroke that stopped him in his tracks just over two years ago. He hated the inactivity of his recovery but opted to do everything the doctors ordered. Dar Lunn has earned the respect of all in NSW country racing. It's a pleasure to have him on the podcast.

What kind of hope can actually sustain racial justice work over decades—not just months? In this episode of Thinking Christian, Dr. James Spencer is joined by anthropologist and author Dr. Christine Jeske to talk about her new book, Racial Justice for the Long Haul: How White Christian Advocates Persevere and Why. Christine explains how anthropological research actually works—long interviews, deep listening, and time spent in “ordinary” spaces—and how she used it to study white Christians commended by leaders of color as faithful, long-term advocates. From there, the conversation dives into: Delusional vs. resilient hope – why optimism that avoids suffering inevitably collapses, and how Christians can cultivate a cruciform hope forged in hardship. Incremental change without complacency – how to celebrate small wins without pretending the deeper injustices are solved. Privilege as undeserved gifts – not just a slogan, but a way of naming what we’ve received and how grace calls us to respond, not just feel guilty. Habitus and formation – how our environments, narratives, and “moving walkways” of culture quietly shape us toward either withdrawal or engagement. Perseverance in practice – from Sisyphus and his “muscles” to Beverly Daniel Tatum’s moving walkway, to concrete next steps for listeners who feel overwhelmed and don’t know where to begin. If you’re a Christian who feels the weight of racial injustice but wrestles with burnout, defensiveness, or simply not knowing what to do next, this conversation offers a theologically rich, practical vision for persevering in hope—without denial, without despair, and with your eyes fixed on Christ.

When you're running a small fleet, a single breakdown can crush your margins and throw your week off track.

The trucking world is divided right now — not just over freight, diesel, or regulations, but over who gets to operate on American roads and under what conditions. HR5688, the Domiciled CDL Integrity Act, has set off a firestorm inside the industry. Some support it. Some believe it doesn't go far enough. Others think it goes too far. In this episode of The Long Haul, Adam sits down with Lewie Pugh, Executive Vice President of OOIDA, to dig into what the bill actually says, why OOIDA supports it, and how misinformation and social media outrage have reshaped the conversation around non-domiciled CDLs, immigration status, and public safety. We talk about the difference between protecting American drivers and weaponizing fear, the impact of public perception on policy, and why organizations like OOIDA are now facing more pressure than ever to communicate clearly, transparently, and directly with the people they represent. If you've been confused, frustrated, or fired up by this debate, this episode gives clarity — straight from the source.

New research from ATRI indicates that pre-crash negligence, such as substance abuse allegations, is driving a massive increase in jury awards against trucking companies. This analysis suggests that organizational failures now carry financial multipliers that far exceed those associated with crash severity alone. In payment news, Relay Payments has secured a deal with Travel Centers of America, completing its coverage of the "big three" travel center providers alongside Love's and Pilot. This expansion allows the digital payment platform to service fleets of all sizes with a network that now encompasses roughly 90% of the high-flow diesel market. Finally, SpeedX has opened a new e-commerce superhub in Chicago capable of processing 500,000 shipments daily as part of its rapid U.S. expansion. This strategic move highlights how independent parcel carriers are building nationwide networks to compete directly with FedEx and UPS for last-mile dominance.

Cargo theft is no longer a random crime — it's organized, digital, and spreading faster than the industry wants to admit. In this episode of The Long Haul, Adam sits down with Danielle Spinelli, better known as The Fraud Girl — a veteran broker turned fraud-fighting expert and host of Tell Me Everything. Now with Descartes | MyCarrierPortal, Danielle works on the front lines of vetting carriers, uncovering scams, and helping brokers and shippers stay one step ahead of organized theft rings. Fresh off a ride-along with the California Highway Patrol's Cargo Theft Task Force, Danielle gives a behind-the-scenes look at what's really happening on rail lines, at docks, and in digital load boards — and how small carriers are being targeted, framed, or used without even realizing it.

In this bonus episode of A Friend for the Long Haul, I get to talk with Dr. Julia Moore Vogel from Scripps Research. I slid into her DMs to see if she'd like to join me to discuss the recruitment and structure of a new clinical trial examining the effects of tirzepatide, a dual GLP-1 and GIP agonist, on long COVID symptoms. Dr. Vogel is the Senior Program Director, The Participant Center, All of Us Research Program. She's a fellow long hauler and "manages The Participant Center (TPC) for the All of Us Research Program which is charged with recruiting and retaining 350,000 individuals that represent the diversity of the United States. TPC aims to make it possible for interested individuals anywhere in the US to become active participants, for example by collaborating with numerous outreach partners to raise awareness, collecting biosamples nationwide, returning participants' results and developing self-guided workflows that enable participants to join whenever is convenient for them."

In this Thanksgiving edition of Third & Long, Adam Wingfield and co-driver Kaylee Nix break down one of the biggest stories shaking the trucking world: California's CDL compliance battle with the FMCSA, the threat of losing $158 million in federal funding, and the lawsuits claiming civil rights violations. This episode goes deep into the political tension between state and federal authority, how these policies affect small carriers and owner-operators, and what the fallout could mean for the industry moving forward. We cover: FMCSA vs. California — federal funding, compliance failures, and courts stepping in Civil rights lawsuit — why non-domiciled CDL holders say the rules are unfair Public perception of drivers — including the viral “low-skilled job” debate Real-world industry impact — hiring, safety, insurance, and the future of driver qualifications The massive training gap — 63,000 CDL schools but only 3,000 federally compliant What shippers must do next — and whether this opens a door for small carriers Along the way, Adam shares real stories from the road, what it really takes to safely operate 80,000 lbs of equipment, and why the idea that trucking is “low-skilled” couldn't be further from the truth. Whether you're a small carrier, an industry insider, or someone who wants to understand what's really happening behind the headlines, this conversation is one you don't want to miss.

I met Shauna during her first 100 miler at Long Haul 100 earlier this year. Most people, regardless of the training, struggle during the last 15-20 miles of their first 100. She may have too, but she sure didn't show it. She was well prepared with awesome coaching, and has the grit required to accomplish big things in the ultra world. Her enthusiasm for our sport is infectious.

Truck parking is one of the most talked-about challenges in our industry — but recently, some are claiming the problem doesn't even exist. In this episode, Adam sits down with Andrew King, Director of Operations at OOIDA Foundation, to cut through the noise. We dig into the flawed assumptions behind a recent parking report, break down federal data from Jason's Law, and challenge the idea that drivers are just “bad planners.” If you're tired of surface-level takes, this episode goes deep into policy, equity, and what real change should look like for small carriers.

Whether we write them down, type them on our phones, or keep them in our heads, our lives tend to revolve around our to-do lists. Our main focus is to check things off and keep moving. But something is lost when we take that same approach to our faith. So in today's sermon we'll explore an ancient biblical passage that invites us beyond our to-do lists to something richer and more enduring. Join us as we conclude our series, “Rooted.” Scripture Reading: Deuteronomy 6:4-9 Share: Know someone who needs this message right now? Send them the link!

In this episode of The Long Haul, Adam sits down with Garrett Allen to talk about the one thing that brokers, shippers, and carriers say they value — but few actually use to make better decisions: data. Garrett unpacks how small fleets can use their own performance metrics to create stronger partnerships, land dedicated lanes, and rise above the noise in a market full of volatility and skepticism. We dig into trust-building, performance proof, bid season, and why data transparency is the future of reliable freight — whether you're a one-truck authority or scaling up to 10. This one is about earning freight, not just chasing it. Follow The Long Haul Podcast Other FreightWaves Shows Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
