It's that time of the year when the days between Thanksgiving and the New Year feel like one giant blur. But it's also a time to think about the things you want to get done in 2024. So what better way to get a handle on what to be thinking about than a mega episode of this year's best shows? In this episode, we're highlighting the creators in freight that appeared on the pod in 2023. Freight creators have grown tremendously since COVID and I firmly believe that we are still only scratching the surface of the content to be covered in this industry. Titans like Kevin Rutherford and Mike Lombard are noticeably missing from this episode, but that's because you can find them in the Trucking edition of our best-of series. But for this one, you'll get the likes of Joe Lynch, Rahmel Wattley, Matthew Leffler, Reed Loustalot, and Kevin Lawton. These episodes will play in order of how I think they will be the most valuable to you, the listener, but if you want to jump to a specific part, I've got each episode time-stamped as well as the link back to the original episode - which has some handy show links and ways to get in touch with the guest or topic from that episode. Lastly, thank you so much for the support you've given this show during our first year of going fully independent. While these "best ofs" are airing, I'll be finalizing the first part of 2024's content plan with tons of new content on the way. Until then, enjoy and I hope you find this episode helpful....EPISODES:The State of Logistics Podcasting with Joe LynchBuilding Truck N Hustle to 144k Subscribers with Rahmel WattleyArmchair Attorney Breaks Down Convoy and TQL Freight DramaThe Origin of Please Advise Hats and Discord Communities with Reed LoustalotWarehousing Trends and Podcast Marketing with Kevin Lawton---------------------------------------------THANK YOU TO OUR SPONSORS!Are you experienced in freight sales or already an independent freight agent?
