Voice Of GO(r)D brings you two trucking industry researchers in discussion on a hot topic today that is now being discussed in the wider media, downstream of a major enforcement action in Oklahoma. Danielle Chaffin returns for her third appearance on the show along with Miranda from the very popular and informative Trucking Made Successful YouTube channel, and we dive in to the question of how random migrants from around the world are showing up in America and various states are issuing them CDLs with very little in the way of any identification, verification, or possibility of accountability should anything go wrong.
There is a lot to say about this topic, and more details that won't fit into Spotify's show description character limit, so please head over to my Substack to check out the rest -

In other news - my book is complete! The first round of editing, revisions, and more editing, are all wrapped up, and the manuscript is now in the hands of my publishers at Creed and Culture. They will have a week or two to analyze the manuscript, make any final suggestions or changes, and later this month we should have a final manuscript of the book ready to go. Pre-sales at their website will open in November, and the Hardcover will be delivered to your door in March; or, you can meet me at the Mid-America Trucking Show in Louisville, Kentucky, March 26-28 2026, and I will sign a copy for you in person! An E-reader version will also be available, and I will be narrating an audiobook for all of my Road Warrior colleagues to listen to while you are white-knuckling it along the Interstate Mad Max Wasteland.
