Breaker 1-9, buckle up. We’re rolling through freight storms and economic truth bombs in this one.
In Episode 19 of the Channel 19 Experience Trucker Podcast, we kick things off with stories that cut deep—like Pat Hill’s tribute to truckers and their wives, shared by Koolhand Danny C. Hall. Then we head down under to Australia with Brendon Ryan’s letter, “The Breaking Point,” and compare how bad it really is across the trucking world.
But the real thunder rolls in when Dieseldamus makes his first appearance. He ain’t Wall Street. He ain’t D.C. He’s a diesel-soaked, CB-crackling freight prophet who reads the smoke signals of this industry—and his prediction? A massive capacity collapse, consumer collapse, and freight rate spike that could break the system wide open.
We wrap it all up with a grounded convo with Todd Waldron, VP of Carrier Experience at Truckstop.com. We talk fraud, tools, and what’s next for the load board world. No fluff. Just facts, freight, and the voices that keep the wheels turning.
