In the spirit of the Owner-Operator Independent Drivers Association – which has had the back of truckers since 1973 – Trucking with OOIDA puts the issues that matter most to the trucking industry front and center.

In this episode, hosts Ashley Blackford and Scott Thompson head to Oregon, where dozens of superloads are making their way across the state this summer. The job of getting them there safe and sound falls to Omega Morgan, and project manager Doug Smith joins the show to share the planning, process, and unique challenges that come with these massive moves.

Then, we take a coffee break with Linda Young – an OOIDA truck insurance agent today, but a certified coffee sommelier in the ‘80s. Linda serves up stories from her past and shares tips on how to find a truly great cup of joe while you’re on the road.

Whether you’re hauling freight or sipping a hot brew, this episode delivers the perfect blend of trucking know-how and flavorful conversation.
