Episode #070:
In today's episode our duo begin with a little joke for a friend. It will probably make a few people scratch their heads and then laugh. There is some definite wordplay today. But what they venture off to is how the movies play a role in life. Even something as ordinary in the life of a truck driver like a cb radio. However, this is not what the episode is really about, this is just our troublesome twosome being themselves.

They take a stroll down memory lane in movies about truck driving or those that truckers have a major role in. They were surprised at how many movies they remembered before giving in and went to google for them.  They then finally turned to Shakespeare or so it seemed with “to cb or not to cb, that is the question”. Really what they are talking about is cb radios!

The purpose of the podcast is why or why not drivers use cb radios now. From traffic delays from accidents, construction, truck stops with scales, paid parking, and load information at your stops to name a few. Plus of course, when everything else, like cell towers go down from bad weather, those cb’s still work.

They have a little more fun with cb handles, go into story time and more laughter with almost dirty jokes. And then back to useful information about why cb’s are important. They help you communicate without breaking the law.

They finish up with emergency information for those that either use cb’s or are thinking of getting one. And finally, a few quotes from actual drivers from a survey that came up in research.
