Host Malcolm Harris kicks off a high-impact 2026 episode covering the freight, logistics, and supply chain issues everyone in the industry is feeling right now. Malcolm opens the show with the latest freight headlines — including Amazon last-mile closures, AI-driven DOT enforcement, major broker and carrier developments, and legal decisions that could reshape liability across the industry. Then, the show dives into two must-hear expert conversations:  Mark Becker, President, CEO, and Co-Founder of G10 Fulfillment, joins the show to break down the rapidly growing hazardous goods market. As one of the few Amazon-approved hazmat shippers in the U.S., Mark explains how lithium-ion batteries are transforming e-commerce, where brands often miss on compliance, how regulations are reshaping warehouse operations, and why cutting corners in hazmat shipping creates serious safety risks. Danny Ramon, Director of Intelligence at Overhaul, returns to WHAT THE TRUCK?!? to unpack what's really driving cargo theft in 2026. Danny covers strategic theft, fictitious pickups, physical security gaps, insider risk myths, and how overreliance on technology can create a false sense of security — plus what carriers, brokers, and shippers should audit right now to reduce exposure. This episode covers: Hazmat compliance and lithium battery growth Amazon and carrier enforcement pressure Cargo theft trends and fraud tactics Supply chain security fundamentals vs. tech What logistics leaders need to fix now If you work in freight, logistics, or supply chain security, this episode of WHAT THE TRUCK?!? is a must-watch. ⁠Watch on YouTube⁠ ⁠Subscribe to the WTT newsletter⁠ ⁠Apple Podcasts⁠ ⁠Spotify⁠ ⁠More FreightWaves Podcasts⁠ #WHATTHETRUCK #FreightNews #supplychain Learn more about your ad choices.

Welcome to this episode of The New Warehouse Podcast, where Kevin chats with Mark Becker, President, CEO, and co-founder of G10 Fulfillment. Becker shares how G10 has evolved from an early Amazon distributor into a national 3PL built around flexibility, technology control, and practical automation. With warehouses strategically placed across the U.S., G10 supports both direct-to-consumer and complex B2B fulfillment, including hazmat and oversized items like zero-turn lawnmowers.The conversation explores why flexibility matters more than rigid efficiency models, how owning the tech stack enables faster pivots, and what real-world robotics adoption looks like on the warehouse floor. Becker also offers a grounded look at AI's role in fulfillment, separating hype from practical gains as the industry heads into 2026.Find more information about our sponsors here: Peak Technologies, Masterplan Communications, TGW Logistics, YMX Logistics Follow us on LinkedIn and YouTube.Support the show

Nonprofits are in buzzword hell—AI, tipping, data lakes, CRMs, donor privacy. What actually matters? In this sharply honest conversation, Katrina VanHuss sits down with three industry tech pros—Emily Eakin, Mark Becker, and Erik Tomalis—to unpack what's real, what's hype, and what leaders must do now. They tackle the GoFundMe controversy, the future of CRM, the rise of data-first strategy, and how AI can finally solve the staff-capacity crisis (without stealing anyone's job). For a clear, grounded, unvarnished look at where nonprofit tech is headed, earbud up.

This week's show starts with a message from Rational Revolution Host Mark Becker. Mark clarifies some statements he made about the 2024 election in last week's show. "If I make a mistake that might cast doubt in the hearts and the minds of our listeners, especially when it comes to things like the election, I do want to get that corrected. Because that's true to my integrity, and it's true to the integrity of the show. Last week, in the heat of discussion, I incorrectly said that Kamala Harris got more votes than Donald Trump. She didn't. She got about two million less. However, the point I was trying to make was that Donald Trump keeps saying he has this mandate. He doesn't. The fact is, the majority of the country voted for someone else. And that was the point I was trying to make. So, I'm sorry if I caused any confusion. But, on this show, it's not about left versus right, it's about right versus wrong, and I want to make sure we get that one right. So thank you for listening". This week, enjoy a replay of last year's Independence Day broadcast, featuring guest Paul Page! Paul is an iconic motorsports announcer and got started in the world of racing. Paul discusses attending school for military broadcasting, working part-time in radio, and working at an auto shop. While he has also broadcast from hot dog eating contests, Paul is best known for serving as the play-by-play commentator for the Indianapolis 500 for a total of 27 years, spanning both radio and television.

Mark is on vacation! This week, Pastor Jerry Bader steps in to guest host Rational Revolution. It's a topic that's been burning up Green Bay area social media. It's called the "Silent Epidemic:" adult children estranged from their parents. There is now a peer group in Green Bay to support parents: PEACE. Pastor Jerry Bader of Samaritan's Heart Mission Church talks with Brian Briscoe, founder of PLACE, Parents Living After Child Estrangement. They're cutting vital programs like Social Security and Medicaid that Americans have paid into throughout their working lives - not to balance the budget, but to fund tax cuts for corporations and billionaires who don't need the money. As Senator Tammy Baldwin, who joins the show briefly, puts it: "This is like taking it from somebody who paid into Social Security or Medicaid to give Elon Musk a bigger tax break. He doesn't need it." When politicians talk about "necessary cuts," always ask who benefits and who pays the price.

Pastor Jerry Bader of Samaritan's Heart Mission Church talks with Brian Briscoe, founder of PLACE, Parents Living After Child Estrangement. They're cutting vital programs like Social Security and Medicaid that Americans have paid into throughout their working lives - not to balance the budget, but to fund tax cuts for corporations and billionaires who don't need the money. As Senator Tammy Baldwin, who joins the show briefly, puts it: "This is like taking it from somebody who paid into Social Security or Medicaid to give Elon Musk a bigger tax break. He doesn't need it." When politicians talk about "necessary cuts," always ask who benefits and who pays the price.
