Podcasts about truck drivers

When asked about the kind of truck she prefers, our guest today offered this response: “I like a manual shift. You know, the old-school Peterbuilts and Kenworths. But, every truck I drive is different, and I just like that I'm driving a truck.” Those, my friends, are the words of a bona fide trucker. Carrie Keyes is the real deal. In her more than 25 years behind the wheel, she has driven everything from dump trucks to city buses to tractor-trailers. And she's run the gamut of businesses behind those trucks as well. So, when someone like her says she's found the industry's pot of gold, it carries weight. In addition to the wealth of knowledge and insight packed into this episode, Carrie Keyes will share why driveaway proved to be her Promised Land from which she'll never return. This is an episode of #SixFigureTrucker that you can't afford to miss. Show Notes:We catch up with Carrie with her coffee outside of Denver (1:04)The 5 Rule - Carrie's secret to stress-free living (10:07)From CB Radios to Cell Phones - communication on the road (14:00)The True Freedom of Driveaway (16:22)Carrie shares her journey in the Trucking industry (22:00)Finding her Promised Land in Driveaway (28:00)She likes the Old School Manual…but in the end, she just likes Trucks!

No, that's not the start of a bad joke–I got the chance to hitch a ride with a trucker a few months ago. Back in September, my road trip with BasicBlock.io ended in Cleveland, Ohio, and I needed to get back home to Chicago. So I linked up with GTS company driver Eric Prescott, who was excellent with giving me a lift.

What are you thankful for?

18WT 063:  So many people see trucking as a great opportunity.  So they go and get trained either paying themselves for a trucking school, or going through a company and having them pay.  Then they get their money back through a 2 year contract typically.Then a few months after training and into their very first otr job, they find out just how difficult truck driving is. Mentally, physically, and emotionally especially if they have family at home.  Let's be honest, kids just don't understand the parent being gone for weeks on end.  And that is how you make the money.Then there is the point of view of the trucking company. These big companies are willing to train the new people to drive, but people wonder why they pay so low to being with.  The reason seems to be that so many new drivers' leave after 6 months of being on their own behind the wheel and being gone from home and learning more about driving and breakdowns, hours of service, split sleeper, and find out that driving is a hard job.They go find jobs driving locally for smaller companies and places like Amazon and UPS.  Then that typically leaves the big company out in the cold with a driver they paid to train, that left the company.  And yes they no doubt send a bill for the schooling.  I bet that is difficult to collect.On the other side you have a few really great companies that pay extremely well and have great benefits.  However, you do not walk into those jobs straight out of school.  You have to do your “time” as they say and pay your dues until you have enough experience to get into those companies.So, after speaking to drivers we have found that not much has changed with truck driving in one aspect, but really if you think about it, so much really has changed. Since trucks started hauling goods.Full podcast show notes available here: https://www.18wheeltalk.com/e63 Instacart - Groceries delivered in as little as 1 hour.

Reel Comic Heroes: 151 - Spider-Man (94) Script Read   We decided to do something a little different this episode and assembled some folks for a script read of the unmade ‘Spider-Man' from 1994.
