#69 - Driver Careers Before Trucking

This week on the Liquid Trucking Podcast, we’re taking a look in the rearview mirror.  Liquid drivers Shade Thomas, Nathan Dobrenz and Mikal Duncan will join us to discuss their careers BEFORE they became drivers.  We’ll dive into what lessons can be translated to trucking, that were learned in careers like drag racing, social media management, and working with the mentally disabled.  This is an insightful episode, and a fun listen, so download it today! 

#68 - What Are You Listening To?

This week on the Liquid Trucking Podcast, we’re bringing you a roundtable with 4 drivers, Drew Hearn, Tim Behrends-Spencer, Mikal “Donut” Duncan, and Dusty Erickson.  We’ll talk about what they are listening to while the hours pass on the road.  The point of this episode is to give Liquid drivers a few ideas, just in case their playlists are getting stale.  We’ll talk podcasts, music, audiobooks, and even the sounds of silence! There’s a few really good tips about different ways that you can expand your library for free, so make sure to download this cut today!

#67 - Preparing for the Worst

Time to put on your wool socks, grab your best gloves and strap in for a cold weather episode!  This week on the Liquid Trucking podcast, we’re welcoming Liquid drivers Matt MacKellar and Rick Jackson to the program to talk about staying prepared for any weather eventuality.  Matt and Rick will share stories about why they stay prepared the way they do, and talk about what they always keep on the truck, just in case.  With the storms pushing across the Midwest, it’s a perfect time to download this one!

#66 - The Great Debate: Old Trucks vs. New Trucks

We’ve long thought that having some sort of debate series on The Liquid Trucking Podcast would be fun, so we’re trying it!  Liquid drivers Matt Kleich, Burt Morris, Wendell Yoder and John Frye join the show to square off on which is better, old trucks or new?  It’s more of a roundtable discussion than a debate, but it’s a fun episode, so download it today!

#65 - Interviewing Millionaires (In GTA 5)

Here on the Liquid Trucking Podcast, we’re always curious about how drivers spend their off time.  On this episode, we welcome 4 Liquid drivers to dish about their off-time hobbies. Quincy Rich and Travis Ludi talk about restoring tractors, gun collections and general recovery from the job, while Terry Smith and Nathan Dobrenz discover they both have accumulated millions (or maybe billions) playing GTA 5 online. It’s a unique conversation and a fun one at that, so download it today!

#64 - Why Liquid loves Love's

On this week’s episode of the Liquid Trucking Podcast, we’re showing some love to Love’s Truckstops!  We’ll welcome Adam Troester, Regional Account Manager for Love’s, for a conversation about all the great things Love’s has in the works.  We’ll also talk to a couple of all-star Liquid drivers in Earl Olberding and William Pageler.  Earl and William both had stellar marks for MPG and Idle time last quarter, so we’ll quiz them on how they manage their metrics.

#63 - Love is in the Airlines

It's the season of love and the Liquid Trucking Podcast is here for it! On our Valentine's Day special, we'll talk relationships, good, bad, and ugly thanks to Craigslist's Missed Connections, ugly. Liquid Driver Joseph “Hutch” Hutchison and his wife Christina will join the show to talk about balancing job and the relationship, how they fell in love, and play the Newlywed game. We'll also discuss an article written by a doctor about what women REALLY want for Valentine's Day, and pick it apart mercilessly.

#62 - Macdryver: Bubblegum and Duct Tape

This week on the liquid Trucking Podcast, we’re telling stories about times that drivers needed a little luck, a little ingenuity, and a lot of bubblegum.  We’ll welcome liquid drivers Quincy Rich, Travis Ludi and Tony Brown to tell us about when they channeled their inner MacDryver, and farmed a fix that lasted until they could limp her into the shop.  It’s a funny episode with a bittersweet ending!

#61 - Truckers Against Trafficking

On this week’s very special episode of the Liquid Trucking Podcast, we’re sitting down with the Director of Industry Training for Truckers Against Trafficking, Heather Fry.  Heather will provide us with some great information and identify some common misinformation about human trafficking, and she’ll break down some mind blowing statistics about human trafficking in the United States.  Marcus will also cover some global statistics, and provide all the information you need to educate and prepare yourself to become a Trucker Against Trafficking.
