Welcome back, Roadies, to another episode of The Bourbon Road! Tonight hosts Jim Shannon and Todd are joined by a very special returning guest — Scott Page of My Bourbon Journey — for a deep dive into the world of cigar blend whiskeys. Scott brings nearly a decade of YouTube whiskey content and a genuine passion for the cigar and whiskey pairing lifestyle, making him the perfect companion for tonight's theme. The guys explore what "cigar blend" actually means in the modern whiskey landscape, from price-friendly everyday pours to high-proof cask-strength Canadian whiskeys, all while trading notes on what sticks, wrappers, and ring gauges might best complement each glass. On the Tasting Mat: - Wheel Horse Cigar Blend: A five-year Green River-sourced bourbon at 101 proof built on a mash bill of 70% corn, 21% rye, and 9% barley, finished for six to eight months in Port, Cognac, Sherry, and Armagnac casks. MSRP $45. The nose opens with dark jammy fruit, rich nuttiness, and a hint of Pedro Ximénez-style dried cherry sweetness. The palate matches the nose closely with a velvety texture, rye spice, and a satisfying oak backbone — all at a remarkably approachable price point. *(00:04:55)* - Barrel Cigar Blend: A blend of 7.5- to 18-year bourbons sourced from Indiana, Kentucky, and Tennessee, bottled at 111.2 proof and finished in Madeira, Rum, Armagnac, and Hungarian Oak casks. MSRP $85. The nose carries an intriguing minerality with pencil shavings and a bright citrus-and-dark-fruit combination. On the palate it is notably velvety and sticky with a Dr Pepper-like interplay of baking spice, cola, and dark fruit, closing on a long vanilla custard finish. *(00:16:39)* - Joseph Magnus Cigar Blend Batch 79: A blend of 11- to 18-year MGP Indiana bourbon finished in Armagnac, Sherry, and Cognac casks, bottled at 127 proof. Blended by master blender Nancy Fraley and dubbed "The Sweet One 2" in her signature poetic tasting notes. MSRP approximately $199. The nose is immediately rich with earthy Armagnac character, baking spice, and Christmas cookie sweetness. The palate delivers a seamless rush of fruit, oak, spice, orange icing, and nutmeg on a long, layered finish that rewards slow sipping. *(00:34:07)* - Copper & Cask Small Batch Series No. 15 Cigar Blend: A 21-year blended Canadian whiskey originally distilled and matured in Alberta, composed of 17 barrels and finished for approximately six months in Armagnac and Tawny Port casks before being bottled at cask strength — a towering 157.8 proof. MSRP approximately $80. The nose requires careful approach given the proof, but reveals cotton candy, strawberry, and a distinctive funky earthiness. The palate opens with spicy apple juice character, tropical fruit, ripe cheese-rind funkiness, and hints of cocoa powder and raisin on the extraordinarily long finish. *(00:43:43)* Whether you are a seasoned cigar lounge regular or simply curious about how wine and brandy finishes intersect with good bourbon, tonight's lineup offers something for every palate and wallet. Scott Page is a thoughtful and entertaining guest whose perspective on pairing tobacco and whiskey adds real depth to the conversation. Be sure to seek out his channel, My Bourbon Journey, on YouTube and Instagram, and tune in every Tuesday evening at 8 PM Eastern for his live streams. As always, thanks for riding with us — we will see you down the Bourbon Road.

Vehicle deck operations are among the most familiar activities in the Ro-Ro and ferry environment. Trailers are marshalled, reversed, parked, trestled, lashed and released countless times each day across ports and terminals around the world. Precisely because these tasks are so familiar, risk tolerance can increase through over-familiarisation, where repeated exposure to a hazard without a negative outcome reduces the perception the associated risk The recent UK P&I Club “Lessons Learnt” animation, developed as part of the collaborative work between TT Club and UK P&I Club, provides a powerful reminder that routine operations can rapidly become high-consequence events when visibility, communication, supervision and segregation fail.

The race to decarbonise logistics is gathering pace—but can ports become one of the industry's biggest catalysts for change?In this episode of Logistics Business Conversations, we speak with John Trenchard, Vice President of Sustainable International Supply Chains Europe at DP World, to explore how innovative port incentives, carbon inset programmes and low-carbon transport initiatives are helping reduce emissions across the supply chain.From shifting freight from road to rail and rewarding cleaner transport choices, to trialling electric trucks, HVO fuel and carbon accounting for Scope 3 emissions, John explains how practical incentives are encouraging businesses to embrace more sustainable logistics without compromising efficiency.We also discuss why collaboration across ports, carriers and cargo owners is essential, how carbon inset credits are changing the way companies measure supply chain emissions, and why progress—not perfection—is the key to achieving meaningful decarbonisation.If you're interested in sustainable logistics, freight transport, carbon reduction or the future of greener supply chains, this is an episode you won't want to miss.

Slovenský ženský hokej zažíva obrovský progres a ona patrí k našim najžiarivejším klenotom. Hokejistka roka 2024 Lucia Halušková momentálne oblieka dres elitného švajčiarskeho klubu HC Davos. Úspešná reprezentantka prijala pozvanie do videopodcastu suSPEAK na ŠPORT.sk, kde moderátorom Rasťovi Konečnému a Marekovi Marušiakovi s úsmevom porozprávala o tvrdých začiatkoch medzi chlapcami, švajčiarskej profesionalite i bláznivých posezónnych oslavách.Málokto o talentovanej útočníčke vie, že hokejovo vyrastala v Púchove výlučne v chlapčenskom kolektíve, kde pôsobila až do svojich tínedžerských rokov. V uvoľnenej debate priznáva, že hoci si musela úvodný rešpekt vybojovať a na štadióne sa delila o malú šatňu bez okien, chlapci ju nakoniec brali ako seberovnú a na ľade si ju ochranársky strážili.Diskusia sa prirodzene preklopila k jej aktuálnemu pôsobeniu pod Alpami. Prestížna švajčiarska liga priniesla nečakaný skok v profesionalite, od moderných analytických senzorov až po stretnutia s legendárnym Andresom Ambühlom. Samotný začiatok vo vysokej nadmorskej výške však nebol vôbec jednoduchý.„Prišla som tam, kondičná trénerka mi dala senzor a hneď som mala hodinu a pol v červenej zóne. Hovorila som si, že toto v živote absolútne nedám,“ spomína na kruté bežecké tréningy popri davoskej lanovke.Presah mimo športu ponúka diskusia o fungovaní mesta počas známeho Svetového ekonomického fóra. Extrémne bezpečnostné opatrenia zasahujú aj do bežného života hráčok, ktoré sa kvôli lukratívnym prenájmom musia na určitý čas zbaliť a dočasne vysťahovať zo svojich bytov.Zaujímavosťou je aj to, že domáce švajčiarske hokejistky vraj nie sú príliš zvyknuté na bujaré oslavy, čo im slovenská reprezentantka po konci sezóny rýchlo vysvetlila pri tanci na stoloch do štvrtej rána.Hoci vo Švajčiarsku našla špičkové zázemie, v kútiku duše už poškuľuje po najlepšej súťaži na svete. Novovzniknutá ženská obdoba zámorskej profiligy PWHL láka aj slovenskú reprezentantku. „Chcela by som tam ísť, uvidím, ako mi vyjde táto sezóna. Je to taký môj cieľ,“ potvrdila odhodlanie zabojovať o miestenku v PWHL.Najnovšia epizóda videopodcastu suSPEAK na ŠPORT.sk prináša mimoriadne pútavý, humorný a inšpiratívny pohľad do sveta ženského hokeja, o ktorom ste doteraz vedeli možno len málo. Pustite si celú epizódu a spoznajte osobnosť, ktorá robí Slovensku fantastické meno v zahraničí, a dozviete sa aj to, ako aktuálne vyzerá jej tvrdá letná príprava so slovenskými hokejistami.

Politics, pressure campaigns, and federal bombshells. Steve Tavares, Trishala Vinnakota, and special co-host Justin Berton break down explosive new court filings in the federal corruption case against former Oakland Mayor Sheng Thao and the Duong family. Prosecutors allege Thao threatened to abandon a lucrative modular housing deal if East Bay Insiders published a story about former San Leandro Councilmember Bryan Azevedo's conduct during a trip to Vietnam. They also allege the Duongs paid former East Bay Insiders co-host Shawn Wilson $10,000 to suppress the story. We also examine the latest in the CA14 special election including how Melissa Hernandez's divorce records raise new questions about a central theme of her campaign biography. Plus, Oakland Department of Transportation Director Josh Rowan's remarkable broadside against City Hall, and Steve's latest conspiracy about a monster escaping from a Port of Oakland shipping container. Of course, Justin denies the claim.
Today's Cruise News brief covers three stories. A Kentucky woman, filing under the pseudonym Jane Doe, has sued Carnival Cruise Line and spa operator OneSpaWorld over an alleged assault by a massage therapist aboard Carnival Vista on July 5, 2025, a complaint that arrives alongside Department of Transportation figures showing 135 sexual assaults reported on Carnival vessels between 2016 and 2025. In Italy, a July 3, 2026 court ruling voided the environmental approval for the 600 million euro Fiumicino Waterfront cruise port near Rome, a project 90 percent owned by iCON Infrastructure funds with a 10 percent stake held by Royal Caribbean Group, leaving Civitavecchia as the region's cruise gateway after it processed 3,556,559 passengers in 2025. And Disney Cruise Line is scaling up in St. Maarten, moving from three calls in 2026 to roughly 14 in 2027 following Disney Destiny's inaugural visit on July 1, 2026, at a port that welcomed 1,597,940 cruise visitors last year.
Send us Fan MailWelcome to Safe Dividend Investing's Podcast #286 on August 1st of 2026.The current threats by the US to invade Canada encouraged me to reissue a book with the new title of "The Fifty-First State - A Lost Alliance". I wrote this book 10 years ago when a devastating drought in the American Southwest was going to trigger the invasion of Canada to reroute the water in the Great Lakes. Now, the threat of turning North America into a battle ground no longer appears to be just an excuse to give fiction writers something interesting to write about.In this podcast, I have a short excerpt from that book describing plans to repel the invasion but the main theme is showing you how to protect your life and your wealth by purchasing a second citizenship in a safe nation. If you were required to escape to a safe haven, it would also be wise to have converted part of your wealth to gold that could be drawn upon when you might not have access to income from your stock portfolio.Ian Duncan MacDonald Author and Commercial Risk Consultant,President of Informus Inc 2 Vista Humber Drive Toronto, Ontario Canada, M9P 3R7 Toronto Telephone - 416-245-4994 imacd@informus.ca
Horror Hill: A Horror Anthology and Scary Stories Series Podcast
When Howard Blake journeys to the isolated village of Port Humber to investigate his brother's disappearance, he expects to uncover bandits, misfortune, or tragedy—not tales of witches, spectral riders, and things that move through the forest after sunset. But every frightened face in town tells the same story, and every warning points toward a lonely stretch of coastal road no sane traveler dares follow after dark. As reason collides with legend beneath gathering storm clouds, Howard discovers that some myths endure because they're true—and that there are places where humanity is no longer the dominant force.Listen on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@chillingtalesfordarknights/

Začínal s futbalom v domácom Bardejove, vyskúšal si akadémiu anglického tímu Bristol City, no napokon svoje uplatnenie našiel pod strechou haly. Do najnovšej epizódy videopodcastu Striedame! na ŠPORT.sk prijal pozvanie súčasný šéf slovenského futsalu Norbert Sališ.V otvorenom a mimoriadne pútavom rozhovore s moderátormi Julom a Muťom poodhalil aktuálny stav tohto dynamického športu na Slovensku. Okrem ambícií národného tímu a úspechov klubovej scény však neváhal otvoriť aj takzvané „Pandorine skrinky“, ktoré dlhodobo rezonujú v športových kuloároch a o ktorých sa často hovorí len pošepky.Hoci je futsal na Slovensku často v tieni klasického futbalu, jeho úroveň sa podľa Sališa podarilo po funkcionárskej aj finančnej stránke stabilizovať. Národný tím má smelé plány zabojovať o miestenku na svetovom šampionáte, zatiaľ čo na klubovej úrovni robí fantastickú reklamu Lučenec. Ten dokáže s minimálnym rozpočtom konkurovať v Lige majstrov aj takým gigantom, akým je slávna Barcelona, čím dokazuje, že za relatívne málo peňazí sa dá robiť mimoriadne kvalitný šport a prestížna šou.Témou rozsiahlej diskusie bol aj vzťah futsalu so Slovenským futbalovým zväzom (SFZ), pod ktorého hlavičku hnutie patrí. Sališ otvorene priznal, že spolupráca v minulosti vôbec nefungovala a halový šport bol dlhodobo na vedľajšej koľaji. „Každý z futbalu sa dvadsať rokov, pekne povedané, vykašľal na futsal. Prístup bol v štýle: ‚Tu buďte, robte si vo svojej kancelárii ten futsal a buďte radi, že vám niečo vyhodíme, len nás neotravujte,‘“ opísal historickú frustráciu z ignorovania zo strany futbalových štruktúr.Emočne ostrá debata sa však rozprúdila aj pri porovnávaní futsalu s populárnym malým futbalom. Sališ zdôraznil priepastný rozdiel medzi týmito dvoma odvetviami. Kým futsal je podľa neho prísne výkonnostný šport s dlhodobými desaťmesačnými súťažami, prísnou infraštruktúrou a kategóriami, malý futbal vníma skôr ako voľnočasovú aktivitu zameranú na krátkodobé turnaje pre partičky kamarátov.Práve v boji o hráčov a pri prezentácii športu verejnosti dochádza medzi týmito tábormi k výrazným trecím plochám. „Ak niekto príde do haly, zoberie si futsalovú loptu, hrajú štyria na jedného podľa futsalových pravidiel a povie, že hráme malý futbal, s tým sa ja osobne veľmi nestotožňujem,“ vyjadril sa kriticky.
V relácii Trefné strieľanie pokračujeme v predsezónnych rozhovoroch so zástupcami extraligových klubov.

V rozhovore otvorene hovoril o odchodoch Samuela Bučeka či trénera Andreja Kmeča, prezradil aj rozpočet na hráčsky káder. Počas dlhého rozhovoru sa vyjadril k viacerým témam, napríklad aj k Lige majstrov či práci s fanúšikmi.

David Lloyd is the father of Davy Lloyd. He's a graduate of Ozark Bible Institute and College. After marriage to his wife Alicia, they moved to Port-au-Prince, Haiti, in order to pursue their missionary calling: a children's home under the name Missions in Haiti. They raised more than 100 children to adulthood, where hundreds of children are educated annually. As we read through the Scriptures, we see many occasions in which God miraculously delivered individuals from harm. We read of Daniel whom God sent an angel to shut the mouths of the lions. There was Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego delivered from the fiery furnace. Queen Esther and her people were protected when it seemed they would be wiped out by those who hated the Jews. We think of Peter whom God sent an angel to open prison doors and Elijah who was protected by perhaps the most wicked king and queen of Israel. While some were delivered from death, others were delivered by death. Hebrews 11 writes of those who were stoned, sawn asunder, killed by the sword, or suffered in other situations. Why does God deliver some and not others? Job writes as recorded in Job 23:14, "For he performeth the thing that is appointed for me: and many such things are with him." We don't know the mind of God, but we do know God can be trusted and glorified in life or in death. Today's program is a true account of what happened just two years ago, as we learn about the simple service and the sudden sacrifice of martyrs in Haiti, and a family who had devoted themselves to serving the Lord at a Haitian children's home until their lives and that of a Christian co-worker were taken.

Korene má v africkej Guinei-Bissau, no už viac ako dve desaťročia považuje za svoj skutočný domov slovenský Spiš. Zanietený mládežnícky basketbalový tréner António da Cruz zavítal do najnovšej epizódy videopodcastu Pod košom, ktorým sprevádza Tomáš Kotlárik, porozprávať nielen o svojom neuveriteľnom životnom príbehu, ale aj o úskaliach práce s deťmi a aktuálnom stave súčasného basketbalu.V úprimnom rozhovore spomína na svoje začiatky v bývalom Československu, kam pôvodne pricestoval ako mladík s cieľom vyštudovať architektúru. Poslucháčom priblíži prvé náročné momenty v bratislavskej jazykovej škole i úsmevnú náhodu na hodine telesnej výchovy, vďaka ktorej sa opäť dostal k milovanej basketbalovej lopte.Hoci ho to v minulosti zavialo aj do profesionálneho mužského basketbalu na lavičku Prievidze, toto prostredie ho pre chýbajúcu dlhodobú koncepciu rýchlo znechutilo a rozhodol sa radšej naplno venovať mládeži.Postupom rokov a na základe skúseností výrazne zmenil aj svoj trénerský prístup. Priznáva, že kým pri chlapcoch býval v minulosti veľmi impulzívny, pri dievčatách musel zvoliť úplne inú, oveľa trpezlivejšiu cestu komunikácie. „Môžem kričať do nemoty, keď nevie, ako to má urobiť, tak radšej sa desaťkrát pýtajme a potom to robme tak, aby vedeli, prečo to robia,“ približuje António da Cruz svoju súčasnú filozofiu.Vo videopodcaste sa hlbšie zamýšľa aj nad rozdielnou mentalitou medzi európskymi a africkými športovcami. Kým na starom kontinente majú deti obrovské množstvo možností a pri prvom neúspechu často strácajú záujem, v Afrike vnímajú šport ako jedinečnú šancu na lepší život a idú do tréningov naplno s obrovskou túžbou. Dotkne sa aj citlivej témy rodičov, s ktorými je v mládežníckom športe nevyhnutné neustále pracovať a trpezlivo im vysvetľovať zmysel nastaveného procesu.Svoje bohaté skúsenosti pritom neodovzdáva len v klube, ale už 13 rokov organizuje pohybové aktivity pre tisícky detí v predškolskom veku. Pri najmenších nehľadá okamžitý basketbalový talent, ale zameriava sa na úplne iné parametre. „Chcem vidieť tú pohybovú aktivitu, či vie behať, ako dvíha nohy, obratnosť, to je ten prvý predpoklad, že z toho môžeme niečo urobiť,“ prízvukuje charizmatický tréner.Reč príde aj na jeho rodinu pochádzajúcu z 11 detí, ktoré sú dnes roztrúsené po celom svete, či na to, ako vníma rozvíjajúcu sa kariéru svojej dcéry Carloty, ktorá je slovenskou mládežníckou reprezentantkou. V samotnom závere poodhalí, aké rozhodnutie z mladosti spojené so slávnym FC Porto by dnes urobil inak a prečo si na Slovensku zamiloval prírodu a termálne kúpaliská. Ak chcete spoznať človeka, ktorý obetoval basketbalovej mládeži svoje srdce, nenechajte si ujsť túto inšpiratívnu epizódu videopodcastu Pod košom na ŠPORT.sk.
Ligový kolotoč sa definitívne roztočil a najvyššia futbalová súťaž na Slovensku má za sebou 1. kolo, ktoré prinieslo niekoľko veľkých okamihov, či už pozitívnych, alebo aj negatívnejších. O tom najpodstatnejšom sme debatovali v 94. epizóde relácie Kam si to kopol? na ŠPORT.sk.V poradí 34. ročník elitnej slovenskej futbalovej ligy má čerstvo odohraté úvodné kolo, v ktorom padlo až 20 gólov, no zároveň so sebou prinieslo viacero zaujímavostí.Napríklad ako tvrdé slová trénera AS Trenčín Ricarda Moniza na svojho zverenca Huga Páveka, ďalší konflikt medzi útočníkom Podbrezovej Radkom Šilerom a trénerom Michaloviec Antonom Šoltisom, tvrdá premiéra pre nováčika z Banskej Bystrice proti Slovanu Bratislava hviezdneho Yayu Tourého alebo osemgólová šialená prestrelka pod Dubňom.O tom najdôležitejšom sa v 94. epizóde relácie Kam si to kopol? na ŠPORT.sk porozprávali futbalový redaktor Ján Jasenka a moderátor Marián Lontoš s bývalým ligovým zakončovateľom Tomášom Majtánom.

Port of San Diego commissioners used a new policy for naming and renaming locations to recognize the Kumeyaay people's historic ties to San Diego Bay. On July 14, commissioners approved naming an unnamed beach at Spanish Landing Park, located along Harbor Drive, Kumeyaay Beach.The move marks the first public space on the bay to acknowledge "the region's first people" and "celebrate their lasting legacy," Port Vice Chair Michael Zucchet said in a statement. Indigenous leaders and advocates requested the naming under the new policy and are slated to work with the Port to develop on-site signage at the beach, according to the Port.In January, the city of Chula Vista also commemorated the Kumeyaay people. Mayor John McCann presented a proclamation recognizing the second Sunday in November as Kumeyaay People's Day in San Diego County's second-largest city.Kumeyaay leader Bobby Wallace has helped move these commemorations forward. He joined Midday Edition on Tuesday to share his thoughts on the significance of the beach naming.Guest: Bobby Wallace, Barona Band of Mission Indians

Hier, dimanche 26 juillet 2026, Brasilia a rappelé son ambassadeur à Buenos Aires. L'ambassadeur argentin au Brésil, lui, a été convoqué par le ministère des Affaires étrangères brésilien. À l'origine de cette dispute entre les deux voisins, il y a les propos tenus par Javier Milei ce week-end. Samedi, à Sao Paulo, lors de l'investiture de Flavio Bolsonaro comme candidat des conservateurs à la présidentielle d'octobre, le président argentin d'extrême droite a traité son homologue brésilien de gauche de « voleur », sans le nommer. Javier Milei s'en est aussi pris au juge de la Cour suprême brésilienne, Alexandre de Moraes. Dimanche, Javier Milei en a remis une couche. Il a accusé le Brésil, mais aussi le Mexique et le Parti démocrate des États-Unis d'être responsable d'une « campagne anti-argentine ». Les autorités brésiliennes n'ont pas apprécié ce qu'elles qualifient de « propos offensants » et elles l'ont fait savoir. Les relations entre Lula et Javier Milei n'ont jamais été bonnes. Mais jamais auparavant - jamais même depuis le retour de la démocratie dans les deux pays - la situation n'avait été aussi tendue, explique Marine de La Moissonnière, journaliste au service international de RFI. Haïti : élections présidentielle et législatives le 13 décembre En Haïti, s'achemine-t-on, du moins sur le papier, vers l'organisation des élections ? Ce week-end, le Conseil électoral provisoire a transmis au gouvernement un nouveau calendrier électoral. Le premier tour des élections présidentielle et législatives est fixé au 13 décembre prochain. Dans ce document, l'organe électoral prévoit également la publication des résultats définitifs le 7 mars 2027. Un calendrier qui suscite déjà des réactions à Port-au-Prince. Si certains citoyens disent attendre ces scrutins, d'autres se montrent très sceptiques. Correspondance de Peterson Luxama. À lire aussiHaïti : «Sans sécurité, les élections ne seront qu'un leurre» La tenue des élections est évidemment conditionnée à un retour au calme dans le pays. Or, on en est loin. L'insécurité s'étend notamment dans l'Artibonite. Jean-Denis, une localité de Petite-Rivière, est désormais complètement assiégée après l'attaque du gang Gran Grif, fin mars, et la prise de contrôle d'un axe stratégique. Début juin, les groupes armés sont passés à une nouvelle étape en érigeant un mur qui empêche désormais les quelques habitants qui n'ont pas pu fuir d'entrer et de sortir librement de la zone. Cette situation accentue l'isolement de la population et soulève de sérieuses interrogations sur la capacité des autorités à sécuriser les voies d'accès. Dossier signé Ronel Paul.

Sid shares his experience in advocacy and public service, the power of networks and perseverance, and local outreach efforts that connect students and communities to San Diego Bay. We explore Port of San Diego priorities including the Maritime Clean Air Strategy, the Blue Economy incubator, Pond 20 wetlands restoration and mitigation bank, and workforce development to create high-wage regional jobs. Sid highlights concrete project examples and cross-jurisdictional collaboration with city, state, and federal partners. For environmental professionals, Sid offers practical takeaways on presenting data and stories, engaging with agencies on decision-making, and advancing equitable, resilient solutions for San Diego Bay's future.
The girls are back with a birthday episode, and they're giving “rager” a new meaning as they travel from “maybe aliens snatched this man's plane” to “the U.S. Navy really said racism? never heard of her.” First, Monique gives Amy the birthday gift of a deeply weird UFO disappearance: the 1978 case of Frederick Valentich, a 20-year-old Australian pilot who vanished over the Bass Strait after reporting a strange object hovering above him. His final transmission included the words “it's not an aircraft,” followed by 17 seconds of creepy mechanical noise and then absolutely fucking nothing. Then Amy takes us into the Port Chicago disaster, one of the worst homefront disasters of World War II and a story so enraging it should come with a free blood pressure cuff. Black sailors were forced to load explosives without proper training, officers turned it into a speed competition, 320 people were killed in a massive blast and then the Navy blamed the surviving Black sailors when they refused to go back to the same deadly work. It took 80 years for the Port Chicago 50 and other convicted sailors to be exonerated.
Most carriers think their recruitment problem is a marketing problem. Post the ad. Get the calls. Fill the seat. Move on. Christian Martinez has managed over 65 owner-operators at Voyager Nation out of Mulberry, Florida — and he'll tell you straight up that recruitment is the easy part. The hard part is everything that comes after somebody signs on. He started at the bottom. Loading trucks. Warehouse operations. Port logistics. Last-mile delivery. Recruiting. Fleet acquisitions. He worked his way through nearly every level of this industry before landing in operations management — which means when he talks about why owner-operators leave, he's not guessing. He's watched it happen from every angle. The trucking industry spends millions trying to find drivers. It spends almost nothing figuring out why they leave. And most small carriers running two, three, five trucks are making the same mistakes the big fleets made twenty years ago — just on a smaller budget with less room to absorb the damage. This episode is about what actually keeps an independent contractor running your freight. Not the sign-on bonus. Not the percentage. The things that determine whether an owner-operator calls you a partner or a problem — and what that decision costs you either way.

In this episode, we kick things off by examining a major AI breakthrough that could fundamentally transform freight execution across North America. J.B. Hunt Transport Services has partnered with a startup to publicly launch an AI-led freight execution platform following a year-long co-design process. The platform leverages AI agents to automate shipment coordination, reading live data, detecting exceptions, and managing customer communications while working within carriers' existing systems. Overroute's technology is now deployed across J.B. Hunt's business units, with AI agents working behind the scenes on millions of loads. Meanwhile, Forward Air just pulled off a critical rescue of a massive customer relationship that nearly sank the entire company. The logistics provider secured a deal to keep at least half of a $250 million account that had threatened to pull all of its business back in May. Forward's shares had plummeted over forty percent following the warning that it might lose a customer responsible for ten percent of its annual revenue, and the potential loss also foiled its plan to sell the company. Shares of Forward Air surged nineteen percent in early trading following Tuesday's announcement. Finally, we explore how the nation's busiest container port is about to become the testing ground for nuclear-powered maritime operations. The U.S. Department of Transportation's Maritime Administration will sign the first-ever agreement with the Port of Long Beach to test small modular reactors for commercial vessels and other potential port uses. Separately, Bluecore Energy, a startup headquartered at the Port of Long Beach, announced it has raised ten million dollars to develop floating, barge-mounted reactors to power ports and eventually cargo ships.
