The conversation then shifts to the Wreaths Across America project, a community event organized by CAP at the Winchester National Cemetery. Major Bixler explains the mission of the event: to remember the fallen, honor those who serve, and teach future generations about the sacrifices made for the country. Both Lauren and Cora share their personal experiences with the event, noting its impact on participants and the community.

Wreaths Across America is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization founded to continue and expand the annual wreath-laying ceremony at Arlington National Cemetery begun by Maine businessman Morrill Worcester in 1992. The organization's mission – Remember, Honor, Teach – is carried out in part each year by coordinating wreath-laying ceremonies in December at Arlington, as well as at thousands of veterans' cemeteries and other locations in all 50 states and beyond. Founded in 1941 and established as the official civilian auxiliary of the U.S. Air Force seven years later, Civil Air Patrol is chartered by Congress as a nonprofit organization for the purposes of youth development, aerospace education, and to promote general aviation. In an auxiliary role as a Total Force partner of the Air Force, CAP operates the world's largest fleet of single-engine aircraft for search and rescue, disaster relief, training, and education. Civil Air Patrol is dedicated to serving America's communities, saving lives, and shaping futures.

We kick off the episode by discussing the vibrant atmosphere of the show and the numerous connections we've made. We then dive into a series of interviews with various industry professionals: Willie Nelson from CDL Life: Willie talks about CDL Life's mission to connect drivers, fleet owners, and owner-operators through their news platform and app. He highlights the importance of community and safety in the trucking industry, especially for women drivers. Rob Carpenter: Rob shares his unique experience of driving a truck to the show and emphasizes the importance of good equipment and driver retention. Justin Lu from Truckpedia: Justin introduces Truckpedia, a TMS that connects trucking companies directly with shippers. He offers valuable advice on how carriers can effectively communicate with shippers and build lasting relationships. Courtney George from Wreaths Across America: Courtney explains the mission of Wreaths Across America to honor veterans by delivering wreaths across the country. She emphasizes the importance of respect and community service in the trucking industry.

A-Block (1:44) SPECIAL COMMENT: In his three-day orgy of insults, expanding his list of those who are "poisoning our nation's blood" from Hispanics to Africans and Asians, praising dictators and echoing Hitler, it's understandable that most of us missed it. But Trump also explained the one rug that will really tie his totalitarian room together: he's going to indemnify the police. Translation: under Trump, the cops can kill George Floyd and be certain they will face no legal liability. They can kill YOU and be certain they will face no legal liability. It is literally a license to kill, a license granted to the 700,000 police officers at all state and city levels in this nation. Who already have weapons. Who already have tanks. Who already have affinity to Trump and the fascism and white supremacism he's selling.  And now they will be freed of all restraint. And they'll owe that freedom to Trump. They will become Trump's stormtroopers and his little SS. And if invoking the Insurrection Act to use the National Guard against unarmed civilians is too sharp-edged for some of his under-Fuhrers, Trump can simply dispatch local cops to shoot up a Black Lives Matter protest. Or an anti-Cop City protest. Or just an anti-Trump protest. It may be his most totalitarian revelation since. And naturally, the New York Times follows it with an op-ed titled "The Secret of Trump's Appeal Isn't Authoritarianism” and Axios begins the last full business week of the year with 1,000 words on Trump and not one of them mentions his plan to take over the cops or his quoting Hitler or his praising Xi and Kim. Jim Vandehei and Mike Allen have shown that they - and so many other institutions we think would recoil from authoritarianism - are in fact ready to serve them, just as long as they can continue to make profits. Axios has 1,000 words on Trump and they are all positive and normalizing and praising him fo having "much greater power than in his first term and fewer restraints on carrying out his political agenda.” His political agenda is Totalitarianism, you useless slobs. B-Block (22:22) POSTSCRIPTS TO THE NEWS: Ruby Goodman and Shaye Moss are awarded $148 million from Giuliani. Giuliani re-slanders them. They sue again. He re-re-slanders them against last night. Clarence Thomas wasn't being bought; he was prostituting himself. Congressmen ask him to recuse. Mayor Eric Adams says NYC is the greatest because any day could be 9/11. (28:10) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: Wreaths Across America, Laura Loomer and the Senate staffer who was just, uh, receiving testimony. And the new allegation: that wasn't the first staffer CPAC's Matt Schlapp allegedly groped. C-Block (35:10) THINGS I PROMISED NOT TO TELL: Tells you something that a week ago somebody who didn't know asked me about the legendary sportscaster for whom I interned in 1978. That means he's been famous for 80 years, the last 10 of them after he passed away. The story of The Amazin' Bill Mazer.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
