Sense Per Mile

🚛💨 Breaker breaker, y’all—2024 is in the rearview! 🎉 As we downshift into 2025, we gotta give a BIG shoutout to all our fans, supporters, sponsors, and listeners who’ve kept Sense Per Mile rolling strong this year. Y’all are the diesel in our tanks, the coffee in our thermoses, and the reason we keep coming back to the mic week after week! From jaw-dropping stories to truck-stop laughs, you’ve made every mile of this journey worth it. Whether you’re tuning in from the cab, the office, or even the couch, we couldn’t do it without your support (and your killer CB radio impressions). Here’s to more laughs, more stories, and plenty more miles in 2025. Keep those radios dialed in, and we’ll keep bringing the heat like a jake brake on a downhill grade. Stay safe out there, keep the rubber side down, and have a gear-grinding, chrome-shining HAPPY NEW YEAR! #SensePerMile #ThanksForTuningIn #2025HereWeCome #HammerDown Charles G.

In this episode of Sense Per Mile, Paul shares the hilarious and cringe-worthy story of how a promising date took a sharp turn when he discovered his date was an urban planner who blamed truck drivers for infrastructure issues. Spoiler alert: Paul couldn’t hold back his thoughts on why that perspective was unacceptable—and let’s just say the date didn’t end with dessert. But it’s not all about Paul’s love life. We also dive into the hottest trucking industry topics with a panel of experts, exploring challenges and trends as we head into the fourth quarter. From holiday freight surges to parking woes and regulatory changes, this episode balances laughs with insights you don’t want to miss.
