Summary
Welcome to a packed Wednesday edition of What The Truck?!? Hosts Malcolm Harris and Michael Vincent are back on the set for a family reunion-style episode featuring industry heavyweights and groundbreaking tech. First, the "Nostradamus" of freight, Ryan Schreiber (CGO of Metafora), joins the show to tackle a fascinating new trend: the Ozempic effect on logistics. We dive into whether GLP-1 medications are actually making truckloads lighter and how shifting consumer preferences—from "junk food" to whole foods—are fundamentally altering freight volumes and produce seasons. Then, we welcome back a familiar face, Kaylee Nix, now Head of Communications at Bot Auto. Kaylee breaks down their historic achievement: delivering America’s first fully humanless commercial truckload on a public highway. We get into the nitty-gritty of "Transportation as a Service" and why they consider themselves a trucking company first and a tech company second.
