  Pain at the Pump: How High Might We Go?

  Sep 29, 202635 min

  Tom Kloza has been covering the fuel markets for more than 50 years, and even he hasn’t seen anything like what we’re seeing right now. With average diesel prices per gallon in the $6 range and above, filling up has never been more painful – and we have a number of factors to thank for that. We connect with Kloza, chief energy advisor for Gulf Oil, to talk about how we got here, how high diesel prices could end up going, and what it’s going to take for everything to come back down to Earth.

  Why the Canadian Freedom Convoy Was More Than Just a Protest

  Sep 23, 202646 min

  One week in early 2022, Donna Laframboise was at home, watching as the Freedom Convoy took shape in Canada’s capital city. The next, she was catching a ride to Ottawa to document what was taking place on the ground. The result: a life-changing experience for Donna and a book, “Thank You, Truckers!: Canada's Heroes & Those Who Helped Them.” Inside are the accounts of 20 truckers – and countless others – who took part in what Donna calls a shining moment in Canadian history.

  Dolly Parton’s Last Stop

  Aug 31, 202629 min

  The world suffered a huge loss last week with the passing of Dolly Parton – but her memory will live on thanks to her music, her kindness, her philanthropy and so much more. That includes a brand-new truck stop in the heart of Tennessee. In fact, the grand opening of Dolly’s Tennessean Travel Stop was one of her last public appearances. Mark Dukes, president of the travel stop, took some time before Dolly’s passing to tell us about the destination that is Dolly’s Tennessean Travel Stop, why it meant so much to her and why truckers held a special place in her heart.
