On Episode 722 of WHAT THE TRUCK?!?, Dooner is back from Future of Supply Chain in Atlanta and he’s talking about a new report looking at the American Trucking Associations. CEO Chris Spear earns $1.9 million, but what are his results?

Summer shipping demand is lifting up the truckload market as outbound tender volumes climb above 7% and rates go up 4% above 2023 levels. Will it be sustained, and can the momentum continue?

A new survey says 72% of carriers would switch to alternate fuels if it were cost-effective. Chevron Renewable Energy Group’s Jon Scharingson is talking about clean fuels. We’ll learn about carrier perceptions, demands and needs, as well as the infrastructure needed to meet lower emissions standards.

Meet Shimmi Munson, STI’s billing bulldog. We’ll learn all about cradle-to-the-grave approaches; how to negotiate tariffs; LinkedIn beefs; and when strap work goes wrong.

Lida Hakobyan has acted in a commercial and driven a semitruck. Now she’s helping shippers sleep like babies. We’ll also find out why she just bought a new truck in this market and how to select safe carriers.

Plus, truck vs. boulder; literal links in the supply chain; WTTGear.com; and more.
