What really drives long-term growth? Chasing revenue or creating real value? Anthony Petitte is back for the last episode of this week to share how founders can scale smarter by focusing on sustainable value creation! We talk about building a growth playbook that prioritizes operational discipline, high-quality revenue, and customer diversification. Anthony also explains why founders should start with smaller customers, refine their processes, and avoid overcapitalization traps that can erode control and focus. Lastly, he explores how channel partnerships, data-driven strategies, and clarity in leadership identity can distinguish the good from the great!   Connect with Anthony Website: https://anthonypetitte.com/  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/anthonypetitte/  

In this episode, Wendy Buckley of STARS HazMat Consulting breaks down the realities of hazmat freight compliance and risk management! We talk about why most companies don't realize their insurance excludes key hazmat activities like storage or transport and how that mistake alone can shut you down, how hands-on, customized training and concise SOPs are what actually protect your team, the essential role of regular internal and third-party audits, and how proper commodity identification can prevent dangerous storage scenarios (like lithium batteries stacked next to paper rolls). If you're moving or brokering hazmat freight, investing in expert guidance, tailored training, and updated insurance coverage isn't optional—it's how you keep your business alive and compliant in a zero-tolerance industry!   About Wendy Buckley With 28 years of hands-on experience in hazardous materials transportation, compliance, and safety, Wendy helps companies navigate the complexities of hazmat regulations while ensuring their operations remain efficient, safe, and profitable. As the founder and owner of STARS HazMat Consulting for 13 years, she partnered with shippers, carriers, warehouses, and 3PLs to create customized compliance strategies that protect people, property, and profit. Her approach is simple yet impactful: turn regulatory challenges into opportunities for operational excellence and growth.   Connect with Wendy Website: https://starshazmat.com/  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/wendy-buckley-48304223/  Email: info@starshazmat.com

How secure is your trucking operation against cyberattacks? Are you confident your team could spot a phishing email or fake shipper domain before it costs you thousands? Today, listen to cybersecurity expert Melanie Padron speaking about the growing threat landscape in transportation! We discuss why small and mid-sized carriers are prime targets, often hit hardest because they lack dedicated security resources, how AI-powered tools are helping companies stay ahead of evolving cyber risks, and practical solutions: employee training, incident response plans, vendor vetting, and partnering with cybersecurity professionals who understand trucking operations. The key message? “Trust but verify.” As National Cybersecurity Awareness Month reminds us, education and consistency are your best defense. Whether you run one truck or a 500-unit fleet, acquire strategies from this episode to secure your business and protect the future of the industry.   About Melanie Padron Melanie Padron is a risk management expert and cybersecurity speaker who has made it her mission to protect trucking companies from cyber threats. She's been right there in the trenches when ransomware attacks hit, helping pick up the pieces after systems are encrypted and ransom demands arrive. After spending over 20 years in the insurance industry helping businesses recover from disasters, Melanie has shifted her focus to something she's even more passionate about: stopping those disasters from happening in the first place through proactive cybersecurity. Her connection to trucking is personal. Growing up working in her family's convenience stores, she watched the steady stream of trucks that kept their gas tanks filled and shelves stocked. Her uncle and aunt were owner-operators who crossed the country delivering freight, giving her firsthand insight into the dedication and sacrifice required to build a trucking business. Working with veteran-owned IT Architeks, Melanie helps trucking leaders secure their fleets and leverage AI to become more efficient and profitable. Her approach is simple: when trucking companies truly understand their risk, real protection begins. One company at a time, she's working to build cyber resilience in the trucking industry.   Connect with Melanie Website: https://www.itarchiteks.com/  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/melanie-padron/  

What if machines could sense the world like we do and use that awareness to make cities safer and more connected?   In this episode, I sit down with Michael Kelly, Chief Strategy Officer at Mozee, to unpack Generative Perception Intelligence (GPI)—a fundamentally different approach to machine perception that goes beyond today's catch-all “AI.” Michael shares how Mozee's “community-first, human-centered” mission shows up in beautiful, real-world transportation experiences, why GPI is their beachhead for autonomous mobility (and far more), and how a band of “super builders” scaled from 4 to 20 people while preparing for a big Series A year.   We also get personal: Michael's path from JP Morgan to startups, his passion for entrepreneurship and intrapreneurship, and the books he recommends for anyone intent on building meaningful work and stronger communities. If you're near a browser, peek at Mozeealong.com while you listen.   Here are some highlights:   -GPI vs. AI—what's different: Michael explains “perception lag” and why Mozee built a single “brain” that processes multiple sensor inputs simultaneously rather than stitching together separate systems. -On-device, ultra-fast, resilient: GPI runs entirely on device (no cloud dependency), reacts orders of magnitude faster than human pain response, and is designed to operate even in disconnected or high-risk environments. -Autonomy as the beachhead: While autonomous vehicles are the first proving ground (and the inspiration behind “Mozee Along”), the same perception engine translates to drones, robotics, warehouses, traffic systems, and city-scale applications. -Scaling the builder culture: From 4 to 20 team members, a move into a 63,000-sq-ft facility, and a pipeline of large city contracts, including work tied to 2026 global events and groundwork for 2028, Mozee is preparing to launch its Series A off a major public milestone. -Purpose, category design, and careers: Michael's take on entrepreneurship as a path to meaning and mobility, why Play Bigger belongs on every builder's shelf, and how to apply category-creation thinking even as an intrapreneur.   About the guest: Michael Kelly is the Chief Strategy Officer at Mozee, an autonomous mobility company revolutionizing urban transit with AI-powered, electric shuttles. Before joining Mozee, Michael spent 12 years at JPMorgan as VP of Investments, managing a global portfolio. He held Series 7, Series 66, and insurance licenses across 20+ states and was recognized for driving 60x business growth under his leadership.   A serial entrepreneur, Michael launched his first venture in 2005 and now sits on the Dallas Entrepreneur Center's Venture Board, fostering startup growth in DFW. He mentors with Plug and Play, Capital One, and MassChallenge accelerators and was an Entrepreneurship Fellow at SMU. Outside of work, Michael is an avid sports fan and enjoys serving as his daughter's jester in his free time.   Connect with Michael: Website: https://www.mozeealong.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/resolutemichael/   Connect with Allison: Feedspot has named Disruptive CEO Nation as one of the Top 25 CEO Podcasts on the web, and it is ranked the number 6 CEO podcast to listen to in 2025! https://podcasts.feedspot.com/ceo_podcasts/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/allisonsummerschicago/ Website: https://www.disruptiveceonation.com/    #CEO #leadership #startup #founder #business #businesspodcast  Learn more about your ad choices.

How do you stay “patiently aggressive” when the freight market keeps throwing curveballs? What's the right balance between playing offense and protecting your cash flow? In this episode, James Currier is back to discuss how the smartest players in the freight game are moving right now, expanding into new services like dedicated haul and final mile, locking in smart contracts instead of chasing spot rates, and seizing M&A opportunities while others retreat.  We dig into why financial discipline, detailed P&L reviews, and strong vendor relationships are the real game-changers in today's volatile market. From navigating tariffs and rising insurance costs to understanding when to buy, refinance, or wait, you shouldn't miss this conversation on strategy, resilience, and growth for carriers and fleets who are ready to win!   About James Currier James Currier is the Chief Revenue Officer at Finloc USA, where James leads the sales team across the country in a relentless pursuit for increased market share in the equipment finance field.

Charles Komanoff, transit activist and mathematician, and Eric Goldwyn, assistant professor and program director at NYU Marron Institute of Urban Management, debate whether free buses, which are a pillar of Democratic mayoral frontrunner Zohran Mamdani's transportation plan, are the best way to both speed up the notoriously slow bus system and best help New Yorkers struggling with the high cost of living. Plus, they discuss Andrew Cuomo's proposal to shift management of New York City Transit to the city from the state.

Wiggy loves that Mike Vrabel keeps telling the Patriots not to listen to the outside noise and hype. Greg breaks down why Monica Tibbits-Nutt stepping down is a great thing.

Sean Smith is back for another discussion, and today, he talks about building a trusted network and keeping your freight secure in a market full of fraud, fake carriers, and last-minute chaos! Sean breaks down why a strong, relationship-driven carrier strategy is the best defense against fraud and service failures, moving 85% of his freight through a core group of trusted carriers, how tools like RMIS and private load boards automate vetting, boost efficiency, and keep trusted carriers in the circle, while we're recognizing the fact that technology alone can't beat fraud, and how carrier segmentation, automation, and transparency tools help brokers scale without losing control or quality!  

HEADLINE: Russian War Economy Stalls as Oil Prices Decline and Sanctions Bite GUEST NAME: Michael Bernstam SUMMARY: Michael Bernstam reports that the Russian economy is struggling as global oil prices decline and sanctions increase transportation costs, leading to a $13 to $14 per barrel discount on Russian oil. The "military Keynesianism" economy is exhausted, resulting in staff cuts across industrial sectors. Forecasts indicate contraction in late 2025 and 2026, with the IMF lowering its growth projection for 2025 to 0.6%. Russia is avoiding sanctions by routing payments through neighbors like Kyrgyzstan, who have become major financial hubs. 1945

The Department of Transportation has announced it is withholding over $40 million in Motor Carrier Safety Assistance Program grants from California. This funding cut is a consequence of the state failing to place truck drivers who do not meet the Trump administration's English Language Proficiency requirements out of service. J.B. Hunt Transport Services saw an 18% year-over-year increase in earnings per share to $1.76 for the third quarter, a result that strongly exceeded analyst expectations. The company is scrutinizing expense lines and has already removed $20 million in costs during the period as part of a program aiming for annual savings potentially greater than $100 million. Following the revocation of the U.S. de minimis tariff exemption, e-commerce shippers are encountering difficulties with new customs requirements, resulting in backlogs of non-compliant shipments at commercial carriers like UPS. Due to this complexity, retailers and logistics partners are taking a second look at international postal networks as a potentially compliant and less expensive route for certain low-value goods.

The AvBrief editor-in-chief describes how the new aviation news service relies on humans to research and write aviation news. Also, the impact of the federal government shutdown on air traffic controllers and how they may influence a resolution of the shutdown, modernization of the 109th Airlift Wing ski squadron, and an idea to allocate some Essential Air Service (EAS) subsidies to rural bus services. Guest Russ Niles is Editor-in-Chief of AVBrief, a new website and newsletter that offers aviation news written and researched by humans involved in aviation. Russ has been a pilot for 35 years and owns a 1946 Cessna 140. He has been an aviation journalist since 2003 and was editor-in-chief at AvWeb until July 31, 2025, when he and several others in senior positions were unexpectedly let go. Russ wasn't done being an aviation journalist, and he, along with some fellow journalists, launched AvBrief on August 3, 2025. Russ strongly believes that AI-based journalism cannot effectively create good aviation news content. Rather, it must come from human journalists, and this is a hallmark of AvBrief. The free AvBrief newsletter is currently published three times a week, but Russ sees that growing to a daily email. You can sign up for that at AvBrief.com. In addition to the news stories on the website, you'll also find The Smart Aviator with new products, flight reviews, and best practices for maintenance and airmanship. Russ hopes this will grow into its own online publication. Aviation News As more air traffic controllers miss work, Transportation secretary threatens to fire ‘problem children' controllers The CNN article describes how the ongoing government shutdown is causing widespread staffing shortages among U.S. air traffic controllers, leading to significant delays and disruptions at major airports. At least 11 FAA locations are affected, including key hubs like Chicago O'Hare, Newark, Orlando, Denver, and regional facilities, where control towers are operating with fewer controllers, resulting in delays of up to 90 minutes. In Duffy Threatens Dismissal for Controllers Who Falsely Call in Sick, AvBrief reports that in an interview on Fox Business, Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy said, “If we have a continual small subset of controllers that don't show up to work, and they're the problem children … if we have some on our staff that aren't dedicated like we need, we're going to let them go. I can't have people not showing up for work.” TSA agents helped end a government shutdown before. Could they do it again? Staffing shortages among TSA agents and air traffic controllers are causing airport delays during the ongoing government shutdown. Could their actions exert pressure an to end the shutdown? The National Air Traffic Controllers Association is urging all controllers to keep coming to work, but recognizes that some may choose not to attend due to the financial strain.  Ultimately, only Congress can end a shutdown, but the impact of worker shortages—travel delays and safety concerns—has historically played a part in resolving previous government shutdowns. Vital Ski Squadron Modernization Getting Budget Attention Strategic concerns over increased military activity by China and Russia in the Arctic have prompted U.S. lawmakers and the Pentagon to accelerate modernization of the New York Air National Guard's 109th Airlift Wing, which operates unique ski-equipped C-130s supporting polar operations. Recently, $29 million was reallocated to fast-track the development of a new ski-equipped C-130J model to replace the aging LC-130H “Ski Bird” fleet that has become increasingly unreliable and difficult to maintain due to its age—some aircraft are between 30 and 50 years old. As Congress weighs rural air subsidies ... what about rural bus service? Essential Air Service (EAS) provides federal subsidies (about $550 million annually in the lower 48 and Hawaii) to ensure small,

Every day, transportation is an essential thread woven into the fabric of our lives. Public transportation systems have silently shaped the landscapes of communities, perpetuating disparities and reshaping urban environments in ways that often go unnoticed. Historically, accessible and equitable public transportation infrastructure has been crucial for low-income communities. However, systemic disinvestment and car-centric transportation policy has consistently and disproportionately impacted marginalized communities, exacerbating economic and social gaps. Guests on this episode describe how addressing longstanding neglect and discriminatory practices in transportation planning is crucial to supporting marginalized communities in the fight for economic justice.For more information on this episode, please visit: https://tminstituteldf.org/justice-above-all/. This episode was research and produced by the TMI 2024 Summer Research Fellows (Oreoluwa Ale, Wisdom Chandler, Shaleyah Carter, Aliyah Davenport, Loren Floyd, Chelsea Mendes, Mardet Mulugeta, and Priyanka Mukhara) with assistance from Lauren O'Neil.

 In 1950, the Texas A&M Board of Directors charged the Texas Transportation Institute (now the Texas A&M Transportation Institute, or TTI) to enlist the broad resources of the college across the spectrum of transportation research to benefit Texas, while also providing unique educational opportunities for students to study and work in the field. This agreement solidified the Cooperative Research Program between the then-Texas Highway Department (now the Texas Department of Transportation) and TTI. For 75 years, these agencies have partnered to conduct applied research that benefits Texans and travelers worldwide by innovating and improving the safety, mobility, and resilience of our transportation network. Our host, Allan Rutter, talks about this longstanding relationship with TxDOT Executive Director Marc Williams and TTI Agency Director Greg Winfree.

How much time do you spend commuting to and from work in your car? And do you drive alone? In the US, the transportation sector emits more carbon pollution than any other sector—but in 1991, Washington State decided to take matters into their own hands. In this episode, Ryan and Anjali talk to Brian Lagerberg, who worked on the state's commuter trip reduction plan: a policy that required employers to provide their employees with alternative ways to get to work. Together, they unpack the factors that led to the plan's success and discuss how other cities and states can promote the same practices that make Washington the carpool state, and the kind of model that others can follow.

Roger and Annie sit down with Blake Oliver, founder of Earmark, to cut through the AI confusion. Blake explains why AI is more like a brilliant Harvard-trained intern with amnesia than a tax professional replacement, sharing practical applications from document organization to quality control that can work in firms today.

What happens when artificial intelligence meets the everyday heroes of local government? That's the question driving my conversation with Justin Dennis, co-founder and COO of Urban SDK, a geospatial AI company helping more than 250 North American cities make faster, safer, and smarter decisions. Justin shares how a Smart Cities Challenge from the U.S. Department of Transportation inspired him to co-found Urban SDK in 2018, and why he believes the future of public safety depends on replacing manual data collection with real-time intelligence. From traffic fatalities to hurricane recovery, he explains how the company's HALO platform gives local leaders and emergency responders the insights they need to act before crises escalate. In a single platform, they can identify dangerous road zones, predict high-risk intersections, coordinate clean-up operations, and rebuild infrastructure based on data rather than guesswork. We also explore how AI is quietly reshaping government operations, from disaster management to traffic enforcement. Justin discusses the challenges of introducing cutting-edge technology into systems that still rely on spreadsheets and siloed workflows. Yet his optimism is clear. He believes governments are beginning to embrace AI not as a buzzword but as a practical tool to save time, resources, and lives. As one Florida community recently reported a 40 percent drop in traffic fatalities, the impact is already measurable. Urban SDK's story is about technology meeting public service with purpose. So as we enter another year of rapid AI progress, how can data-driven insights continue to empower local leaders to protect citizens and improve quality of life? And what could your city achieve if every decision were powered by real-time intelligence? Share your thoughts after the episode.
