Merry Christmas from The Liquid Trucking Podcast! We love Christmas in these parts, so we threw together a special Christmas themed episode for all of you drivers to enjoy, since the episode drops on the big day! There’s Christmas music, a tasty Christmas treat recipe that’s easy to make, a Trucker Night Before Christmas, and even an interview with Liquid Driver Mike Stanfield. Mike and Marcus will discuss their favorite Christmas traditions and flannels! Enjoy your holiday and be safe out there Liquid drivers!

Part 2 of our Driver Feedback episode is finally here! It took some doing, and a couple layovers, but this week, we’ve management on the line to respond to the driver feedback we received in episode 39. General Manager of Liquid Trucking Josh Schmidt will join us to talk it through, as well as Recruiting, Business Development and HR Specialist Nick Meyer. Then we’ll welcome regular guest Jason Eisenman to address what some drivers raised as concerns. It all comes full circle on this episode, so buckle up and hammer down!

This week on the Liquid Trucking Podcast, we’re bringing you the best from our first nearly 40 episodes! We’ll replay segments from episode #8 - Driver Hotline: Stories from the Road, Episode #11 - Marijuana Legalization and its Effect on Trucking, Episode #23 - The 500 Year Flood, and Episode #28 - The Teenage Hotline. It’s a long episode with a bunch of fun segments and a few that make you think!

Do you remember where you were on March 15th, 2019? Liquid Trucking remembers, because that was the day the 500 Year Flood wreaked havoc on Plattsmouth Nebraska and the surrounding area. Roger Schmidt, Josh Schmidt, Gabe Schmidt, Evan Schmidt, Jason Eisenman, Tanner Bowman and Beau Whipple all join us throughout the episode to share their firsthand accounts of a flood so gnarly, we only see it every 500 years.

This week on the Liquid Trucking Podcast, we're discussing driver and dispatcher relationships, and how they are formed. General Manager of Liquid Trucking Josh Schmidt and Load Planner Tanner Bowman stop by first to talk about some of the miscommunication that can happen with drivers and dispatchers. After that, dispatcher James Nuno and driver Drew Hearn discuss how they navigate working together, then driver Efrain Pena and dispatcher Cory Liles have a little fun walking us through their working relationship.

When it comes to tanking, Liquid understands that it is no easy task. That’s why Liquid seeks out The Gold Standard of drivers to help get the job done. In episode 4, we’ll talk with General manager Josh Schmidt, Recruiting and HR Specialist Nick Meyer and Onboarding and Orientation Specialist Beau Hanke about why they are looking for such top quality drivers. Director of Fleet Maintenance Nick Doty makes his first appearance on the pod, and driver Cole Brown joins us for a driver profile

In our inaugural episode of The Liquid Trucking Podcast, we’ll hear from the people responsible for bringing Liquid Trucking from a small company, to what it is today. Co-founder and President Roger Schmidt, Co-Founder and Vice President Mike Beins, General Manager Josh Schmidt, Operations Manager Gabe Schmidt, and Vice President of Safety and Human Resources Jason Eisenman all join us to tell you the story of Liquid OFC Schmidt Barto.
