    The $2.1M "Laundered" Apparel Heist Spilling Across Pop-Up Cross Docks | WHAT THE TRUCK?!?

    On this episode of WHAT THE TRUCK?!?, hosts Malcolm Harris and Michael Vincent kick off July with a packed show covering some of the biggest stories shaping transportation and logistics. First, they break down the latest headlines, including the surprising rise in containers lost at sea, the dismissal of C.H. Robinson from a high-profile Florida trucking lawsuit, and Florida Governor Ron DeSantis’ veto of legislation that would have allowed certain nonviolent inmates to receive CDL training before release. The conversation dives into liability, workforce development, public safety, and second chances in the trucking industry. Then, Brett Suma, President and Chief Operating Officer of Bot Auto, joins the show to discuss the future of autonomous trucking. Brett shares why he joined Bot Auto, the state of AI in transportation, why Texas has become the epicenter of autonomous freight operations, and how physical AI could transform the supply chain in the years ahead. He also reflects on leadership, innovation, and building the next generation of logistics companies. Later, Danny Ramon, Subject Matter Expert for Cargo Theft at Overhaul, returns to the show to analyze a massive $2.1 million cargo theft involving women’s apparel in Southern California. Danny breaks down how organized cargo theft operations work, why cross-docking schemes are becoming more common, what criminals are targeting today, and how shippers can better protect their freight during one of the busiest shipping seasons of the year. Topics covered: Autonomous trucking and AI in logistics Bot Auto’s vision for the future of freight Cargo theft trends and prevention strategies The $2.1 million California cargo heist C.H. Robinson’s removal from a Florida lawsuit CDL training programs for inmates Supply chain and transportation industry headlines ⁠Watch on YouTube⁠ ⁠Visit our sponsor - GNOSIS FREIGHT⁠ ⁠Subscribe to the WTT newsletter⁠ ⁠Apple Podcasts⁠ ⁠Spotify⁠ ⁠More FreightWaves Podcasts⁠ #WHATTHETRUCK #FreightNews #supplychain Learn more about your ad choices.

  3. Supreme Court Bolsters Presidential Power, ZIM's New CEO, & EV Fleet Charging Strategy | The Morning Minute

    Supreme Court Bolsters Presidential Power, ZIM's New CEO, & EV Fleet Charging Strategy | The Morning Minute

    In this episode, we kick things off in Washington with a blockbuster Supreme Court ruling that dramatically expands presidential authority over independent regulatory agencies. The six-three decision in Trump v. Slaughter overturns nearly a century of precedent and is likely to decide the fate of STB member Robert Primus, whom President Trump fired without cause last August. With the Surface Transportation Board now short-handed and facing the largest rail merger in history, the president can more easily install policy-aligned replacements at a critical moment for freight rail regulation. Next, we shift over to the ocean shipping sector where Israel's flag carrier officially transitions to new leadership today. Chen Lichtenstein takes the helm at ZIM Integrated Shipping Services following the departure of Eli Glickman, who resigned in April after Hapag-Lloyd's four point two billion dollar acquisition. Glickman is credited with an astounding turnaround that reshaped ZIM into an agile, digitally-focused global player ranked tenth in the world by capacity. Finally, we explore how the freight industry's transition to electric trucks is revealing that intelligent charging strategy may matter even more than the hardware itself. BetterFleet CEO Dan Hilson explains that managing dense electric fleets requires abandoning the diesel fueling playbook entirely due to brutal demand charges and time-of-use pricing penalties. The company's machine learning platform staggers charging across networks of slower chargers, throttling power to avoid costly spikes while capturing off-peak pricing to deliver enormous savings.

    FreightWaves Today | June 30

    The freight market is changing fast—and this episode of FreightWaves Today breaks down the biggest legal, technology, energy, and market developments shaping transportation. We kick off the show with breaking news on the Florida U-turn lawsuit and discuss why CH Robinson was named in litigation despite having no involvement in the crash. We also debate broker liability, the post-Montgomery legal landscape, Florida's CDL policy, and whether the industry should rethink barriers to entry for new drivers. In this episode, we feature interviews with: Jonah McIntire, Chief Platform Officer at Trimble How AI is transforming transportation management systems Why data—not software—is becoming the industry's biggest competitive advantage The future of AI-powered logistics platforms Will AI eliminate logistics jobs? How Trimble is modernizing legacy transportation software and expanding into the SMB market John Kingston, FreightWaves Editor-At-Large The latest on the Florida U-turn lawsuit and broker liability Global energy markets and diesel price volatility The impact of geopolitical tensions on fuel costs Ocean shipping rates, the Strait of Hormuz, and what to expect for freight markets in the second half of the year The future of EVs, decarbonization, and transportation energy David Spencer, Arrive Logistics Why trucking capacity continues to tighten What carriers and brokers should expect during the July 4 "Super Bowl" freight week Contract vs. spot market dynamics Shipper pricing expectations and routing guide challenges Where freight rates are headed through the rest of 2026 and what could drive the next leg of the market ⁠Follow the FreightWaves NOW Podcast⁠ ⁠Other FreightWaves Shows⁠ Learn more about your ad choices.

    We Asked America's Truckers What's Really Happening... They Didn't Hold Back | Brake Check

  7. Laredo's New Rail Park, Trimble TMS Launch, & DeSantis Vetoes CDL Bill | The Morning Minute

    Laredo's New Rail Park, Trimble TMS Launch, & DeSantis Vetoes CDL Bill | The Morning Minute

    In this episode, we kick things off in South Texas, where developers are building a massive new rail infrastructure project designed to transform Laredo from purely a trucking gateway into a true multimodal freight hub. Following authorization from the Surface Transportation Board, Kraus Development and Ironhorse Resources plan to construct the two point six-mile Laredo Gateway Industrial Railway, connecting Gateway International Rail Park directly to Union Pacific's Laredo Subdivision. With capacity for more than twelve thousand railcars annually—potentially representing the equivalent of roughly sixty-two thousand truckloads—this short-line railroad will serve a sprawling industrial park in a border crossing that already processes between fourteen thousand and eighteen thousand commercial trucks every day and accounts for nearly thirty-nine percent of all U.S.-Mexico trade by value. Next, we explore the technology sector, where Trimble is aggressively expanding its product lineup with a brand-new transportation management system built directly from its massive European acquisition. The company has officially launched Trimble TMS for Shippers, a product that grew out of its twenty twenty-two acquisition of Europe's Transporeon for just under two billion dollars. Rather than forcing shippers to rip out existing systems, the new TMS offering uses a modular, cafeteria-style approach where customers can bolt on specific features like freight procurement, rate management, or carrier tendering to their current infrastructure and only pay for what they need. Finally, we cover a workforce development proposal in Florida that has hit a major roadblock as Governor Ron DeSantis vetoed a bill that would have allowed CDL training for certain state prisoners. The bill, which passed both houses of the Florida legislature with no opposition, was part of a larger vocational training measure targeting nonviolent inmates with two years or less remaining on their sentence. In his veto letter, DeSantis cited the program would be unnecessarily burdensome to the Department of Corrections and raised significant public safety concerns about authorizing incarcerated individuals to operate commercial vehicles in public thoroughfares.
