We'll be back to normal news etc on next Saturday's show. in the interim you're stuck with Trev and I talking about "stuff"

267. Australian Trucking In the weeds with Jerry Browne-Sarre. This week the conversation Mike had with Jerry Browne-Sarre, a bloke who has participated in some of the big events n the history of trucking in Australia. He's been an owner driver, employer and now semi retired in Victoria. He still chimes in on Social media with sometimes pointed and pragmatic views that strike a chord with many. I thank him for his time.

265. In The Weeds with Rob Grieves. The discussion this week is all about FSD (Full Self Driving (Supervised)). That is Tesla FSD. What it is, How it works and what it means for driving down the track. Rob Grieves owns and drives a Tesla with FSD. I always love to talk with people with first hand experience. We also discuss what can only be described as a 'hit piece' by 60 minutes on FSD.

264. Australian Trucking News and Opinion With Mike Williams and Trev Warner. this week Trev and I get stuck right into one news piece. Truckies flouting the law and running hot! Well slap my arse and call me Sally! Who knew we had operators who will have a crack and bend the rules! Also, The memorial service was held today at Tarcutta there was a great long list of names added to the wall this year. This industry does have a butchers bill. One of the names added to the wall was my mate Barry "Sleepy" Grimson. Barry is on the remembrance wall, he didn't actually lose his life on the road. He did spend his life on the road and contributed to the industry not least of which was his role at Razorback. Barrys story is on the Copy Southbound Podcast feed an of course the razorback story is available for free on this feed.

262. Australian Trucking News and Opinion With Mike Williams and Guests.
