I spent hours driving my family all over the US to sporting events in our RV listening to Long Haul Paul on this wonderful podcast telling stories of the amazing people and places that provide the back bone to America! Please bring it back!
Love this show!

Please consider coming back. I think it was the weirdness of 2020 that disrupted what was the start of a unique and compelling series.
Thanks Paul

This is literally my favorite podcast… Wish there were some more episodes . Started driving when I was 21. I’m 55 now. Paul’s songs and stories sound like my life. Thanks for all the great episodes and songs.
Excellent podcast about life in trucking!

I am a 17 year truck driver (age 54) and this podcast is a joy to listen to. The episode titled “Brief history of trucking” was deeply moving, an amazing tribute. I decided that I must write a review. Paul’s thoughts and stories are a joy. Even Paul’s co-hosts are fun because they are NOT truckers and they provide and entry point for people who are curious but are in unfamiliar territory. Great job!

I have listened to this series at least twice. Some episodes more than that. Hits pretty hard for anyone who has spent time on the road. Paul does a great job presenting the diverse people and perspectives of this industry. I feel like I have made a friend that I have yet to meet. I would love to have more episodes.
Finally

I’ve been driving since 78. Several of the episodes really hit home. Going Home or whatever the title was hit hardest. I’ve always told the family when I walk out the door I’m already heading home it just takes a while to make the circle. It’s been a real love hate thing over the years. My kids thank God have all grow to be decent hard working people with families of their own now. I can’t take a lot of credit for that. After my ex left in 95 (not because of my trucking) I got custody of the kids. My mom happened to be staying at my house temporarily while she was trying to find a place of her own and 12 years later she left when my youngest of 4 graduated. It was a God thing. Your interview with Lacey and her brother brought a few tears hearing the perspective from the kids point of view. Shoestrings story of the truck stop party reminded me of a weekend I spent at the 76 in Tampa back in the mid 80’s. So many memories came flooding back as I have listened to your podcast. We have never met but no doubt have crossed paths on the road. Stay safe my friend and when possible drop another update if you will. Us old schoolers need more or your stories.
We need more of you..

This is the first review I have ever written, and a reaction to your Eulogy episode. We all need more of your voice and stories in our lives, my friend. I am in the produce industry, and rely on the hard work that you and yours do to keep the fruits and vegetables getting to the people every day. You are far and ahead the most compelling story teller I have listened to in my life and I relish the opportunity to hear from you. So very sorry for your loss recently, and I want you to know that a random human just cried his eyes out feeling the pain your friend went through. It takes a special person like you to share stories of others and make them feel so true to our own challenges and plights. Thank you, my friend. We are all in this thing together.
Not bad

Thank you for the beautiful song. So sad the circumstances, but it was wonderful to hear From Long Haul Paul. Maybe there is more podcasting in his future 🤞🏻
