Smart Freight, Smarter Moves

from WHAT THE TRUCK?!? · host FreightWaves

Host Malcolm Harris kicks off this midweek edition of WHAT THE TRUCK?!? with headlines shaking up the logistics and freight world. From Craig Fuller’s fiery critique of the ATA’s backpedal on the “driver shortage” narrative to breaking news of an Amtrak–truck collision in San Antonio, Malcolm dives deep into the week’s hottest topics. He then welcomes Clayton Griffin, President of OTR Solutions, to discuss how broker-carrier relationships, payment terms, and trust shape long-term stability and growth in the trucking industry. Clayton shares new data showing OTR’s carriers are 20% more likely to survive beyond their first year, and breaks down how transparency and tech-driven vetting can protect freight operations. Next up is Simon Steadman from Supermove, who spotlights innovation in the moving industry with the upcoming F50 Leadership Summit—a forum bringing top executives together to discuss AI, automation, and digital transformation. Simon explores how traditional operators can embrace modern tools without losing their human touch.
