What's it really like to live life on the road in broadband? In this special "Road Warrior Edition" of Broadband Heroes, we sit down with three true road warriors—Niki Carnahan from VETRO, Drew Pappas from Bonfire, and Adam Puckett from COS Systems—to talk travel chaos, conference hacks, favorite road snacks, and the unexpected joy (and pain) of broadband events.

From wild detours through Romania and lost tablets in airport lounges, to red-eye karaoke nights and the best churros at Denver International Airport—this episode is a hilarious, honest, and human look at what it means to champion connectivity across the country.

Key topics:

How many miles have they racked up this year? (Hint: someone hit 45,000) The glam and grind of the trade show circuit

Travel hacks, safety tips, and face-painting fails

Behind-the-scenes chaos and how these pros "embrace the suck"
