We are making a change with the podcast. Getting back to the core of Ivy League Trucker, which is the observations of an Ivy League educated guy with broad corporate and small company experience - living the life of a big rig over the road trucker.

Future episodes will cover everything from self-driving trucks to the immigrant experience in trucking to truck safety, crashes and the history of trucking. We will speak with people involved in all this along the way.
