Welcome back to another high-octane episode of What the Truck?!? with your host, Malcolm Harris, and the man with the plan, Michael Vincent. We’re diving deep into the headlines shaping the supply chain and sitting down with industry heavyweights to talk strategy and technology.In This Episode: The Utah Nuclear Verdict: We break down the record-breaking $81 million verdict in Utah following a tragic 2018 accident. We discuss the details of the retrial, the driver’s questionable background, and what this “nuclear verdict” means for the future of trucking insurance and case law.   The GLP-1 Effect: Are weight-loss drugs like Ozempic and Wegovy shrinking freight volumes? We examine a study suggesting that nearly 851,000 truckloads have been removed from the food and beverage market due to shifting consumer habits.   FedEx & the MD-11: FedEx is preparing to reactivate its MD-11 fleet to reclaim lost capacity. We debate whether the pressure to save millions during peak season is leading to a rush past safety protocols.   The Freight FBI: A CDL driver goes MIA with a hauler full of vehicles from the Port of Brunswick. We look at the ongoing search for Gonzalez and the missing cargo. Matt joins us to talk about navigating the “preseason” of the market. He emphasizes that while the freight recession may be easing, the winners will be those who hunker down on strategy rather than chasing volume at any margin. He also shares why his “why” always comes back to the way organizations treat their people.   The “Iceman” himself breaks down the digitalization of the cold chain. We discuss how real-time telematics and predictive insights are allowing fleets to know two weeks in advance if a reefer unit might fail—saving those precious avocados and temperature-sensitive GLP-1 medications before they ever hit the road.
