Description

On Episode 705 of WHAT THE TRUCK?!?, Dooner is talking to Edison Motors Ltd. CEO Chace Barber about the troubles facing his EV truck Topsy in Canada. After the company was recently denied a grant, Canadian opposition parties are demanding a probe into alleged government kickbacks. Barber shares his side of the story. 

Road Dog Coffee Co. says it brews its coffee in tribute to America’s truckers. We’ll meet Road Dog’s founder, Spencer Squire, to taste test his beans and see if they’re roadworthy.

Roadz co-founder and COO Amit Jain shares why he believes AI will transform fleet management over the next decade.

Plus, over 1,300 layoffs hit logistics companies across the U.S.; fast food inflation; the Amish get it done; would you pay $75 at this scrapyard; and more.
