  • Inside look into the history and key players of freight

    From the first episode with Kevin this podcast provides a rare glimpse into how the leaders in freight got to where they are, what roadblocks they faced along the way and how they went from zero to successful business leaders.

    Because the hosts are also industry vets you get a level of detail not found on other shows.

    It’s the best source I’ve found to learn about the history of brokerage.

    Hope Andrew and Paul keep it coming.
