Check out Steady at the Wheel podcast on all podcast platforms for audio version of SATW episodes.
Episode 20: In this episode of Steady at the Wheel, we are talking with two old school OTR truckers. With trucking in the 80s and cabover trucks as their starting point, they share trucking horror stories and adventures from years ago when trucking was a much different experience. The shared trucking tales of a trucker owner operator , trucking mentor, and trucking rookie are almost to good to be true.
If you are a trucker, interested in trucking history, or just like to sit down and listen to tales of the road, this video is sure to entertain.

The art of spinning a good yarn is alive and well here on the Steady At The Wheel podcast! No matter what the topic, a skilled storyteller can intrigue an audience and keep them listening……..and that’s exactly what I’ve been finding here week after week. 👍 Great jobs gents!!

You need to do another of these. They are great. I am 80 so I remember the old livestock haulers. I still drive 5 over but when I see a bull hauler in my rear-view mirror I pull over because I know they are doing 15 over. especially between Bridgeport and Chadron.

Russ is Billy Jack's younger brother. I think it was mentioned, but quickly. There was so many stories in here that came fairly quickly that we are planning on a couple episodes to go back through this episode and provide some context and further information about things. Who Russ is is a great example.

Also, Rooster's name is Russ. Bit confusing because there were two Russ's referenced in the podcast. The only time Billy Jack's brother Russ is mentioned is the story about drying off with the stained towel. All other references to Russ is Rooster.
